Pokemon was always as bad as it is now, you were just a kid. It's okay to like the old pokemon however, I watch it if I'm going to have a lazy Sunday in with a friend or two because it brings us back to better days. Same reason I really want a re-make of Ruby/Saphire but could give a gently caress about the new games.

I leave it on in the morning and CN has an episode on when I'm getting ready for class. There was a newer episode that was literally the episode from the original series where Ash let his butterfly Pokemon go. Like almost exactly as I remembered it.

Acquire Currency! posted:"We need to flood the market, just like soviet money!" That's some good poo poo you dropped on me Clarence. Also Clarence not giving a poo poo about his teacher's buddy stars nonsense is so on point. Clarence is weirdly on point even if he's colossally incompetent and short-sighted. I really like the writing of the show.

I know this is old news, but I am amazed that Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated got Michael Anderson to voice the little man for their Twin Peaks parody. That is amazing. Also that Fred's plan for busting the phantom highwayman is basically just to blow him up with dynamite.

On that note, I've also been tearing through Mystery Incorporated over the last month or so based on the praise from this thread and the old dedicated thread for the show. I've watched up to the Shining parody episode with the hallucinogenic firewood, and as someone who generally liked Scooby-Doo as a kid but not to the same extent that a lot of others did growing up, I can honestly say that this might be the most I've enjoyed watching a show in a good while.

All right kids show thread I need your expertise in cartoons. I'm looking for the name of a cartoon I saw like once. It had 3 princesses who had 3 prince(?) boyfriends and one of them had a pet dragon. It's probably a late 80's early 90's show. That's basically all I can remember.

I don't think it's Jewel Riders just because I believe the main character was a brunette and it didn't really have any bright and outlandish colors. A pup named Scooby Doo is like seriously the best Scooby Doo show.

I hated Daphne being so reliant upon her money, and fashion. It's like they took the worst parts of the original show and characters and just blew them up 100 fold. It always just felt so obnoxious. It just felt like a death cry, that left Scooby Doo dead until they started doing the direct to DVD movies. Honestly, the best Scooby Doo got for me, back then was the 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo. A longer storyline, Vincent Price. I didn't give a crap about Flim Flam, and Scrappy was an unfortunate part of that era, but real ghosts. Monsters, and interesting stuff for that era, and a shake up from the normal formula. It seemed like something completely new from the Scooby Doo box.

Which is exactly why 13 ghosts died before it even finished one season, the herd hates change to the formula. Sorry to bring up Clarance again, but it's got the best opening theme for any cartoon of 2014. It's just so energetic and free. As soon as I heard this I wanted to give the show a chance. And secretly hope that there is a larger version or other songs like this in the show's future.

Lazlo Nibble posted:If the old Scooby-Doos seem bad, just think about how much worse the shows were that didn't spawn enough spin-offs and reboots to last well into the 2010s. Gilligan's Planet, anyone? Maybe The Robonic Stooges?. Baggy Pants and The Nitwits? At least in the '80s all the Hanna-Barbera shows got relegated to its own Sunday morning ghetto in a 4-hour block of unwatchable garbage.

I loving hated A Pup Named Scooby Doo too, even when I was a kid I thought it was down there with the Scrappy era of classic Scooby. And I liked lovely old classic Scooby as a kid. I remember it being paired up with the godawful Flintstones Kids show, and at some other point, this weird Flintstones spinoff where Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm were teenagers or adults or something? I dunno. The 2000s-era DTV movies aren't terrible though, they're not great but I can stand to watch them with my kids. Quality-wise I'd say they're somewhere between Mystery Incorporated and whatever the last Scooby series before that was.

I was really apathetic to it, seeing all the previews and the pilot. After watching Fun Dungeon, I started coming around and then A Pretty Great Day with a Girl, I was fully on board. The only reason I tolerated the Flintstone Kids is because it gave me more Captain Caveman.

Everytime I think of flintstone kids, tom and jerry kids and a pup named scooby doo I remember eating baloney and cheese sandwiches. I also liked Zombie Island and Scooby Doo Ghoul school. Ghoul school was during that time when they got rid of fred, daphne and velma and tried to shove scrappy into the action.

Shaggy and Scooby were the only good characters in the original show that kids really liked. It's only natural they would get emphasized in later series. My favorite part about the old Scooby Doo was how the entire premise of being a mystery was a total farce, and half the time they would just pull something out of their asses at the end. "Oh yeah, we never mentioned this before, but there was a wanted criminal around here, and the monster is him."

It's funny that good modern scooby doo movies can be immediately spotted by how well they're animated. I remember them taking a real dive until poo poo like Blue Falcon remake or Goblin King were made during the time between What's New and Mystery Inc. Now I just wish they'd stop making all these films and focus on a TV show with all of these good ideas.
