The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries

Ok, when Scrappy Doo came along, Scooby Doo started to suck, but when this show came along, the cartoon, as well as the franchise was flushed down the toilet. Just like that. I mean this scooby incarnation is truly pathetic! The mysteries aren't as good as they were in the earlier days of the show's run, and the writers didn't seem to care, as well as put some effort into making this a half desent show! I mean Shaggy, and Scooby salvaged the true horrors that is this show with their humor. But however Fred, and Velma aren't on this show, so maybe THAT'S the main reason this show sucked. Scrappy Doo is still that little mutt that we love to hate so much! Whoever thought a sidekick would be good for scooby should be ashamed of himself. This show must have been a good mystery for ABC. When they realized this show stunk, they cancelled it, which solved the mystery. If you're into the older scooby shows (mainly "Scooby, Where are you?") then you'll definently want to stay away from this show at all costs!

Intelligently enough the producers of the show returned Scooby-Doo to his roots and had him solving mysteries. Where they flawed was in not bringing back the gang and getting rid of Scrappy. The mystery and villains are the lamest in the entire franchise and in my opinion an unnecessary show.

But that's all I can say!

This would have been a good show if the jokes and plots were better then they were. But regardless the biggest flaw of this show is of course SCAPPY-DOO!

When this show was on I watched it every time I could! I thought that the characters were really funny and all had great personalities. The animation in My opinion was crisp, clean, and really clear. Not to mention beautiful! Most of the characters in this show are like the hilarious Looney Tunes characters that we all love. in My opinion these characters are the funnies and talented ever seen. In fact, The things that goes on in this series' cartoons are in My opinion nuts which that is what makes them hilarious! There are so many to like and laugh at and the silly things they do! If you like the original Looney Tunes then I strongly recommend that you watch this show!

The New Scooby Doo Mysteries is nice to watch, but doesn't quite have the ingredients that made Scooby Doo Where Are You and the Scooby Doo show so easy to like. On the plus side, the animation is very good, the characters are likable, and I am probably the only one who didn't mind Scrappy here, usually I do find him annoying, and the villains while a little predictable are not so bad. The voice talents are great, I have always loved Don Messick and Casey Kasem and their characterisations are what make this show at least watchable. Alas, this show does have flaws. I love the incidental music, but the theme tune I find forgettable. Also most of the episodes are 15 minutes at least, and compared to the half hour format of its predecessors, I feel that's too short. Fred and Velma are merely secondary characters, but make welcome guest appearances throughout the show's run. In conclusion, I really like the New Scooby Doo Mysteries if I care to overlook the flaws it has- my favourite episodes are A Nutcracker Scoob and the episode with the ghost of Sherlock Holmes. 7/10 Bethany Cox.
