I know it’s not a hot day, but it’s safe to say that this is a very popular version of the show if not the most. And it stands out so much because of its darker writing, horror references, gothic setting, art style and an overarching story. it came out when I was a kid and I never really I ever fully sit down and watch it and I’m in the middle of my first time going all the way through but yet I know the ending and I’m not going to spoil it for those that didn’t see it but like the Sopranos it’s a very disappointing cliffhanger. and ever since then Scooby-Doo hasn’t really found a consistent show. There’s been several attempts to make more shows but it seems like they don’t last more than two seasons, and there are several straight to dv movies a lot of which are not that bad.

But what I don’t why they never tried another story that was on the darker side like this. I get you can use the “It’s a kid showyou can use the quote. It’s a kid show” excuse but you can go back and there are several dark entries into the series like zombie Island, the witches ghost to some of the original series episoded (the one with Space Kook still gets me as a die-hard horror fan). even thebecause it sure as heck worked on me live action movies although still extremely silly James Gunn wanted to make them into an R-rated comedy (we are not speaking about the bad one on HBO). it's a shame because back then and even now there really isn’t anything like that heck, I even consider this version of the show a great Gateway to horro or kids because it sure as heck worked on me. I just kinda wanna know why they never tried anything like this again.
