Scorch is an American television sitcom that aired on CBS in 1992, and was canceled after three episodes were broadcast.

The title character, a miniature dragon, is a puppet that was used by ventriloquist Ronn Lucas before the series came to be; although Lucas never actually appeared in the series, he did supply Scorch's voice.
