It's 2014, no media franchise in existence today will ever be allowed to die, there's just too much money at stake. If Scrappy Doo didn't kill it nothing will

This is going to be a complete reverse Mystery Incorporated where CN will over-broadcast this to hell and high water, or more sickeningly, be incredibly successful because ITS REGULAR SHOW MEETS JOHNNY TEST, KIDS.

Nothing against the Regular Show, but I have a feeling that CN will try to spin New Scooby-Doo to be like it while lacking any of the effort that even JT takes to make.

So "successful" in this instance being that no one watches but because some so and so has it on (probably to stream cn illegally or something) it'll make back it's nonexistent investment anyway?

I'd say let's interview the team behind 'Shaggy and Scooby Doo Get a Clue?' To find out, but everyone still seems to be suffering from the amnesia spell that the last episode spread across the world.

At least that show had a neat art style.



And it was going in with a crazy new premise. These guys say their new Scooby Doo isn't going to be campy or meta, so what's left to Scooby Doo without that?

The Scooby Cycle is eternal. Its original formula is so monotonous and well known that someone will always pay for its most boring incarnation and keep the franchise in the public eye as a monotonous and well known entity long enough for the next rich bastard to start it all over again. What scares the poo poo eaters is anything that tries to do something different that isn't following a trend in animation.

As okay as a Pup named Scooby-Doo was, it was simply following one of the three 90s Hanna-Barbera gambits, make everything young/babies ala Tom and Jerry Kids, make everything weird like Two Stupid Dogs or make everything radical like Pirates of Dark Water. Pup lucked out in that all its potential terribleness went into Yo! Yogi and died there.

Yeah, the problem is that not only has Scooby Doo done straight been done to death (by Scooby Doo and by the many shows that ripped it off) but it was always poo poo to begin with so even if it wasn't done to death, there would still be no reason to not try to bring something new to the table.

As a kid I always liked watching the episodes with the special guests from the 1970s, but then again before I saw Zombie Island, my favorite Scooby movie was the one where Shaggy was a werewolf so what do I know?

From what I understand Mystery Inc wasn't cancelled. It ended where it wanted to end.

The ending clearly set it up for more, though. I was hoping that if they made a new series it would be a direct continuation.
