Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

Monkeywess This is an astonishing documentary that will wring your heart while it bends your mind

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Steve Carras .,.and I don't mean spot son a dogs fur.. "Jenna'"s "WHAT'S OLD" comment was hilariously on the money here, sadly, Shaggy...Mr.Casey Kasem, you're a reasonable guy in a certain extent, on radio, but as Shaggy..no offense to Scooby fans, of course.:-)I mean, how many hundred Scooby-Doo shows were there? Not to mention obvious clones--even "The Pebbles and Bamm Bamm Show" (1971-72/CBS),assomebody on that show's entry here mentions---the Daphne characterredesign, and format and such...and Wile's right about the soundtrack,even for those who ARE SD fans this may be a big trial, the HB sound EFX are lacking, ironically producer WB would have used these same sound EF in the mid to late 60s when the ORIGINAL Scooby appeared..like in the one lesser character late 60s (TV WB animation producer) Bill L.Hendricks-era Seven Arts Looney/Merrie short aired on American network TV-till Nickelodeon got the Looney's and Merries in 1988, "Rabbit Stew and Rabbits Too", for instance as well as all of the other WB Seven Arts shorts ("Norman Normal" and "The Door",both '68, being exceptions,due to their special nature.)

Anthony Rupert After over a decade of inaction following A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, Joseph Barbera and company decided to give Scooby and the gang a makeover with 2002's What's New, Scooby Doo? The show doesn't really stray away from the original format; what brings things down is the voices.Here's the thing: the only original voice actors that returned for this series are Frank Welker (Fred) and Casey Kasem (Shaggy). Mindy Cohn takes over as the voice of Velma (but that's not really surprising because Velma has had a different voice in just about every series; plus, the voice isn't as annoying as whoever took over in 1979 after Patricia Stevens left), and even Heather North failed to reprise her role of Daphne (to be fair, though, North didn't do the voice in 1969); she is replaced by Grey DeLisle.The strangest thing of all is Scooby-Doo's new voice. Since Don Messick died back in 1997, Frank Welker does the voice, and to say that he doesn't sound the same would be an understatement. It's not that I was expecting the voice to be identical, but Welker's version sounds, well, weird. Not only that, but he does it in a way that ANYone could be doing the voice. Another thing about it is that Scooby hardly ever talks now; the only thing he really says is "Scooby-dooby-doo!" at the end of each episode, as well as saying "Yeah!" followed by a snippet of what Shaggy just said. Isn't this supposed to be HIS show?Since the format of the show hasn't changed, people will probably argue over whether the series is classic or dated, but I personally am just going to stick with the episodes from the show's glory days: the 1970s.Anthony Rupert

Shawn Watson I have the Scooby Doo Golden Collection and I think it's great to have loads of Scooby Doo episodes together in one collection. These new episodes are great but giving us 4 at a time is not a good idea and I really think Warner would have been better off investing their time (as we would invest our money) in a First Season Box Set.What we are given for now are individual DVD releases with four episodes running 22 minutes each. A couple of them have below average stories but the other two are up to scratch. The animation and color pallet are very bright and modern as is the soundtrack which incorporates more original music than the old school shows (which tended to re-use temp scores and source music over and over) but manages to work in familiar themes.For Scooby Doo purists there is no sacrilege here. Shaggy and Scooby/Fred are performed by Casey Kasem and Frank Welker so there's not too much of a divide between this and old school to distance older fans from the new show.I do hope this show goes on and on.For what it is, the DVDs present the show absolutely flawlessly in 1.33:1 full frame with pretty active Dolby 2.0 surround and some minimal fluff extras. Buy it cheap and hope for a Season Box Set.

Dawnfrancis This series is Scooby Doo back to it's very best. Having seen several episodes now, I am a big fan. The fact that it's under new production is better, to be honest. It's a Scrappy free zone and whilst the animation is suitably modern, the characters and plots are tried and tested.There are plenty of in jokes and any fan of the original series should support this show. Go, Scooby, go!
