Ruby-Spears Productions (also known as Ruby-Spears Enterprises) is a Burbank, California-based entertainment production company that specializes in animation.

The firm was founded in 1977 by veteran writers Joe Ruby and Ken Spears. Both men started out as sound editors at Hanna-Barbera and later branched out into writing stories for such programs as Space Ghost and The Herculoids. In 1968, they created Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! for Hanna-Barbera. They were also writers and producers for DePatie-Freleng Enterprises.

The Ruby-Spears studio was purchased in 1978 by Filmways Television and was sold in late 1981 to Taft Broadcasting, becoming a sister company to Hanna-Barbera.

The firm's credits include the animated series Fangface, Fangface and Fangpuss, The Plastic Man Comedy/Adventure Show, Dink, the Little Dinosaur, Thundarr the Barbarian, Rickety Rocket, and other animated series such as Mr. T, Rubik the Amazing Cube, Turbo Teen, the 1983 version of Alvin and the Chipmunks, the new Looney Tunes series and movies, the 1988 Superman series, and the American Mega Man cartoon series.
