I grew up with both Scooby-Doo and Courage the Cowardly Dog. Both were my favourite shows as a kid and even now as an adult, I still love to rewatch them. I remember seeing a promo on CN about Scooby-Doo and Courage having a possible crossover and I was so excited, but alas, it never truly happened. It was just a marathon of the original shows. I was still hoping, deep down, that they'd eventually crossover and when I finally saw that trailer, I cried tears of joy.

This is the one crossover that actually makes sense! Both series are about a cowardly canine who has to deal with monsters and horrors. So now that I've finally seen it, I can safely say that my long wait for a crossover between Scooby-Doo and Courage has finally been worth it. This crossover had almost everything! I'm going to keep this as spoiler-free as possible, because I want people to enjoy this for themselves!

One major difference between both shows is that while Courage actually has to deal with real monsters, Scooby-Doo, Shaggy and the gang mostly deal with monsters who turn out to be fake. Also, judging by how they debunked everything in the past movies that established real monsters in Scooby-Doo, I was VERY worried about them debunking everything that happened in Courage the Cowardly Dog. I can't believe they're actually learning from their mistakes! Somehow, they managed to respect both franchises. We got a good classic Scooby-Doo mystery that is set in the nightmare fuel surreal world of Courage the Cowardly Dog.

Everyone is perfectly in character, especially the cast of Courage the Cowardly Dog. It's like he never left us. Also, RIP to Thea White, who voices Muriel here one last time before passing away. Jeff Bergman voices Eustace very well. The way they interact with Mystery Inc flows so naturally well. That climax is also very cinematic and is definitely something I WOULD see in a Courage the Cowardly Dog movie.

The twist on who's the culprit is also really awesome! There's also a LOT of Easter Eggs to Courage the Cowardly Dog so keep an eye out!

I only have a few nitpicks here and there. One is that I wish it could've been a little scarier. One thing many people remember from Courage the Cowardly Dog is how traumatizing it was with all the nightmare fuel. However, since Scooby-Doo is more lighthearted, the balance is still forgivable. The next are just a few jokes that don't land but other than that, really good movie!

I highly recommend this to anybody who's a fan of both series!

This is okay so far. While it does a few things well, like calling back to Monsters University and showing what happened in the time gap in the end of the first movie, how monsters went from scary to funny, the execution is very... eh... so far. I just don't feel any connection to the main character, and I don't like the idea of Mike and Sulley being secondary characters. Tyler, the main character, is just not interesting and feels way more like a blank slate for the audience which, in my opinion, is the worst thing for movies and shows. And the other supporting characters are just too much for me to handle. I will keep watching as there's still hope it could get better but I don't know, I'm just not feeling this.

I've long waited for this series. I loved Friends and seeing them together was what I've been waiting for a long time. Too bad the host, James Cordon, absolutely ruins everything and prevents it from being perfect. Seriously, of all the hosts they picked, they chose James Cordon?! JAMES CORDON?!?! Either way, if you're still a huge fan of the series, give this a watch. However, just try not to let James Cordon ruin it for you.
