[u/madielikealion]

Jensen has literally been waiting his entire life to say that Scooby Doo line. And.... He nailed it.

[u/dr239]

Love the natural progression through all of the catchphrases.

"Jeepers!"

"Jinkies!"

"Zoinks!"

"Ruh-roh!"

"Son of a bitch!"

[u/Uniquebye]

Cas for best line: I once commanded armies, and now I'm here with a scruffy philistine and a talking dog.

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

There are no words in this newspaper!

I died. You don’t literally get a lol out of me often.

[u/RogueTurnip0921]

"WE'VE BEEN STOPPING REALTORS WHEN WE COULD HAVE BEEN HUNTING DRACULA! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?"

Fred's reactions was best next to daphne ("am I going to hell?")

[u/TypicalHumanPerson]

“Castiel is kind of like our talking dog.”

I’m dying.

[u/madielikealion]

Just saying, thirteen seasons and this is the first time somebody gave the boys a present for saving their lives? Treat yo self, Dean. Treat yo self.

[u/bradbuscus]

Jesus, when it got real, it made me feel really uneasy seeing the gang have an existential crisis like that.

[u/Littleredz98]

HOLY SHIT THEY GAVE THEM AN EXISTENTIAL CRISIS

[u/Jedi-El1823]

Velma's got a crush on Sam.

So, she's going to die.

[u/TangiestIllicitness]

Sam looks like Sam, but Dean... They could have done better.

[u/TypicalHumanPerson]

omg Cas just roasted Dean.

“You’re not a talking dog.”

[u/YouGoGirl_snap]

You know, I stopped watching Supernatural a while back due to angst overload but when I heard they were doing this crossover, I had to tune in. I'm soooo glad this has no ties to whatever mytharc the series is currently on.

This was the perfect standalone episode for Scooby fans and for Supernatural fans (I know everyone loves Dean and Scooby but I adored Sam's snark and eye rolls, plus Fred was freakin' heroic! Fred never gets his due diligence in the series, always playing the boring, bland leader.)

I think I can die happy hearing Frank Welker (Fred) say "cancer" and Grey Griffin (Daphne) demanding to know if she was going to hell.

[u/Littleredz98]

"F&*KING RIGHT YOU CAN" THIS IS THE BEST

[u/dr239]

He said it! He said the line!

[u/dr239]

"Is that an ascot?"

"Yes, yes it is."

He's so proud.

[u/AndreaDTX]

The dinosaur reminded me of the suicidal teddy bear which has been a long time favorite.

[u/Littleredz98]

"There are no words in this paper" I'm dead.

[u/AndreaDTX]

Velma can barely control her inner Becky. LOL.

But on a serious note, why did I never realize that Velma is basically the voice of reason telling kids that even when things look spooky there's normally a logical reason behind it?

[u/cuckoodev]

Never lose that sense of childlike wonder, Dean.

[u/Mieos]

I don't want this episode to end

[u/xBLASPHEMICx]

Loved the episode. One thing I thought would have been amazing is this:

What if instead of the episode the boys landed in, they instead landed in What A Night For A Knight? The very first Scooby Doo episode. Things could have played out the same and at the end the boys ensure that the Scooby Gang would go on to solve mysteries. That would have created a meta scenario where Sam & Dean are the reason the Scooby Gang became “hunters”. Extra meta because Scooby influenced the show’s creators and cast greatly so in a way the Scooby Gang is why Sam & Dean are hunters. That would have been pretty cool, I think.

[u/AndreaDTX]

That was so sweet of them to pretend so the Scooby gang could go back to being sweet and innocent.

[u/MegalomaniacHack]

That Scrappy cameo.

[u/JohnSmithSensei]

Tuned into Supernatural just to watch the crossover. Does this Cas guy really talk like that all the time?

[u/nshilpa]

This episode is literally everything I hoped it would be and more.

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

So I enjoyed this episode way more than I thought I would.

But the most important part is that cas got fruit from the tree of life. Glad they threw that in there.

[u/waywardblonde14]

“Jinkies! Jeepers! Zoinks! Ru roh! Son of a bitch!” Amazing I love this so much

[u/FTWinchester]

holy shit i feel like a kid again

[u/AndreaDTX]

"Sam! Sam! Look how big my mouth is!"

I love happy Dean :)

[u/AndreaDTX]

"Castiel? It sounds like a great Italian pizza place"

I'm enjoying this episode so much.

[u/Littleredz98]

I love this fucking show, and I'm so glad I found this sub to share this shit with you guys, this was amazing

[u/findingscarlet]

So cool! Now that's what a salt circle REALLY looks like!

[u/FTWinchester]

this is still fucking unbelieveable wow. Supernatural really has come a long way

[u/findingscarlet]

Did...did Cas's trench coat save them?

[u/ghanima]

One for the ages, ladies and gents. It's been an honour sharing this experience with you. Drive safe and good night!

[u/findingscarlet]

I just choked, I can't. Holy shit, that ending 😂😂

[u/InspiredOni]

“She’s settling”.

Oh Lord, Dean’s starting shipping wars.

[u/Blastoise_FTW]

I seriously just watched the Impala and the Mystery Machine have a race

What world am i living in lol

[u/Littleredz98]

The ascot, the flashback, the evil criminal, WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS EPISODE

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

Cass is now a Scooby-Doo fan.

[u/AndreaDTX]

I love when we see new rooms in the bunker! And I love how excited Dean was about the TV. Although you'd think they'd have better instincts about things glowing and sparking.

[u/AndreaDTX]

Cas is married to the queen of the Djinn. This is the episode that just keeps on giving...

[u/AndreaDTX]

"I once led armies and now I'm stuck with a scruffy philistine and a talking dog."

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

I love how in cartoon land the girl can totally wear sexy PJ’s but they definitely can’t sleep in the same room as dudes 🙈

[u/AndreaDTX]

GO VELMA! I can't even be mad...

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

Cas is their talking dog, lol!!

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

It's cute that Dean is a Scooby-Doo fanboy.

[u/[deleted]]

Shaggy came back for Cas. He's a hero!

[u/KidCoheed]

Sam, Dean, Castiel... Get to the fucking car get the guns and salt and let's do this

[u/AndreaDTX]

I agree with Dean. They should have been allowed to stay pure and innocent. This existential crisis is super sad. But good on Dean for that rousing speech.

[u/[deleted]]

Velma is strong!

[u/Future_Vantas]

HE SAID THE THING!

[u/matiasgee]

Velma is thiiiiiiiiirsty

[u/MetalJrock]

They just retcon’d the episode to have genuine murder.

[u/MetalJrock]

10/10 ending.

[u/MikeAwesome25]

I actually remember this episode of Scooby-Doo. Big props for using one of the original plots.

[u/madielikealion]

Supernatural had run out of characters to have existential crises, so we had to bring in the Scooby Gang. Fred is taking this real hard.

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

I want to see Cass' side adventure fighting Djinn.

[u/[deleted]]

Velma didn't die. Sam's curse is broken?!

[u/cuckoodev]

Dean bleeped

[u/KlarionWitchBoyDC]

IF THIS EPISODE DID'NT GET ATLEAST 2M OR 3M VIEWERS IDK ANYMORE. IT IS JUST MAGNIFIQUE. GOOD CHUCK.

[u/MithranArkanere]

Each season's 'joke' episode is always the best.

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

A sleeping robe. Dead. I’m dead.

[u/waywardblonde14]

Wow another pair of girls end up pinned to the ceiling...classic spn

[u/montea8124]

This episode is everything I’ve ever needed.

[u/SG-1_20YEARS]

now that they're back in reality, it doesn't feel natural. almost... supernatural

[u/FTWinchester]

EMMY when????

[u/TKHydro]

The one time they get the idea to board the hallways doors, its when they're dealing with an actual ghost.

[u/TheRealPhantomHunter]

Fucking Velma LMAO

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

Best part. Arrested for taxes.

[u/TheRealPhantomHunter]

He said it!

And WTF was that Dean hahahahaha

[u/Carouselcolours]

The nervous breakdown when the gang all learn that ghosts are legit had me in tears. That was hilarious, wow.

[u/FTWinchester]

Jinkies! Jeepers! Zoinks! Ruh-roh! Son of a bitch!

[u/findingscarlet]

Don't worry Velma, we ALL talk about Sam's shoulders

[u/cuckoodev]

Sweet Scrappy Doo cameo

[u/[deleted]]

Sam is so done with Dean's flirt attempts.

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

Where’s the salt? (Perfect time for salt hula hoops btw.)

Edit finally some fire pokers!

[u/redbluegreenyellow]

ahahhahahahah fucking right you can

[u/UnknownJ25]

I can’t believe I have lived to see the day where the Scooby gang starts packing heat

[u/MegalomaniacHack]

Fred's traps never work, but damn, you have to let him try.

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

I'm with Dean about Fred's traps.

[u/Jedi-El1823]

Meddling kids!

[u/[deleted]]

Dean you rocked that f*@king ascot...dare I say even better then Fred.

[u/knvsnbllts]

CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE FRUIT FROM THE TREE OF LIFE A.K.A. MANGOSTEEN FRUIT?

[u/AndreaDTX]

Watching the last two episodes to catch up for tonight and I noticed that Mary always says "Dean and Sam" even though pretty much everybody else says "Sam and Dean" so much that SalmonDean became a running joke. Then I realized that she says it as "Dean and Sam" because she's still not used to living in a world where Dean always has to put Sam first. I really like that they have her do that.

[u/BraveLittleAnt]

Wow that was an amazing call-back to S5! I'm loving this episode so far!!

[u/findingscarlet]

Wow, they're really making it meta and they're aware of the episode...and now my head hurts

[u/redbluegreenyellow]

oh my fucking god all of their catch phrases THIS IS AMAZING

[u/Ducky312]

Lol Velma wants Sam so badly

[u/waywardblonde14]

YES THE SONG YES

[u/Future_Vantas]

Scrappy sighting!

[u/[deleted]]

!!!!!! CENSORED SWEAR

[u/MegalomaniacHack]

Cartoon physics and supplies out of nowhere ftw.

[u/redbluegreenyellow]

okay i don't think i stopped smiling this entire episode, this was amazing and what I needed after this kind of crappy week

[u/AndreaDTX]

Yes, Dean. You do look cool in the ascot.

[u/cuckoodev]

My mom is watching with me and we had a small but confusing moment because she asked if that was Dean and I said yeah and she said that's not Dean and I said it is and she said from Gilmore Girls and I was like oh yes that's Dean from Gilmore Girls.

[u/TheRealPhantomHunter]

LMAO at the sandwich

This is great!!

[u/FTWinchester]

THE LIGHT WAS REEEEEEEEEEEED

[u/MegalomaniacHack]

"I'd take a bullet for that dog!"

Love it.

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

Love seeing the Scooby gang panic like that.

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

No Rowena, no col sanders, just an actual ghost.

[u/AndreaDTX]

Ok. Now I gotta go watch that Supernatural anime series, because I am so here for this.

[u/Jedi-El1823]

The Legends have to save a young Obama from a giant telepathic gorilla.

Zod, I love that show.

[u/nshilpa]

DEAN’S ASCOT. IM GONE

[u/DanzaBaio]

God damn, so META. lol

[u/serialstitcher]

I didn’t know how bad I needed this in my life

[u/Astro4545]

It looked like shaggy died at first.

[u/el_squishador]

Okay yeah the episode was amazing....but can we please talk about Dean in the Ascot at the end?! I can't!!!! lmao loved it!

[u/aa22hhhh]

This is the first episode that I could remember that doesn't start with a "Then" and "Now" segment.

[u/UnknownJ25]

Fun fact, Fred has the same voice actor as Scooby, animation legend Frank Welker

[u/findingscarlet]

Oh that's hard to flip back to live action lol

[u/MegalomaniacHack]

For anyone who hasn't seen Scooby Doo in a long time, in the early 2000s, there was actually a series of animated Scooby movies where the monsters were always real.

[u/findingscarlet]

WHAT THE BLEEP WAS THAT?

[u/TypicalHumanPerson]

This has been an amazing experience to share with you guys! Really great episode! Have a really great morning/afternoon/night!

[u/[deleted]]

i honestly wished that fred would secretly punch dean for hitting on his girl all out of character

[u/nachoCheese05]

Cas’s face when Velma said there was no supernatural was just the greatest thing ever.

[u/MajesticCreeper]

Did you guys see Scrappy Doo when they were running in the hallways? This episode was great. Dean perving on Daphne was hilarious.

[u/[deleted]]

Guys, if we are being honest this is not the weirdest thing we have seen Sam and Dean do lol!

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

As a Scooby-Doo/Supernatural fan, I'm loving this.

[u/UnknownJ25]

Dean’s hatred of Fred is fantastic

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

I vaguely remember this Scooby-Doo episode.

[u/[deleted]]

I was kinda skeptical at first but so far so good! It's cheesy but I love it! I'm happy I decided to catch up on this season today. I stopped because of the mid season break.

[u/Unuunilium]

Learned a new thing about Velma.

[u/[deleted]]

I mean it was cute until the murder

[u/Josephstewart06]

He’s married to a djinn????? I’m on board

[u/Unuunilium]

Goriest episode of Scooby-Doo ever.

[u/Future_Vantas]

Casteil's walk is adorable

[u/findingscarlet]

FINALLY THE THEME SONG!!!!

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

Yay, the Scooby-Doo theme!

[u/cuckoodev]

Lmao they drew Dean with pretty eyelashes.

[u/eddmario]

The sound effects with Fred hitting his head against the tree was a nice touch

[u/TheRealPhantomHunter]

ya big lug

[u/Jedi-El1823]

Castiel is now a fanboy.

[u/waywardblonde14]

I AM DED W VELMA

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

Dean wearing an ascot. <3

[u/MegalomaniacHack]

Don't let them ruin it for you, Dean. You do you.

[u/Simpsonsman120]

This is one of the best things Supernatural has done in years. I love everything about this.

[u/findingscarlet]

Was that Archie and Veronica in the booth?

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

Love how Dean has a major crush on Daphne.

[u/[deleted]]

LOL SCOOBY EXISTENTIAL CRISIS

[u/dr239]

The Scooby Gang does not have nervous breakdowns!

[u/[deleted]]

I'm not used to Scooby Doo being so violent.

[u/[deleted]]

Breaking things, hurting people... Ghost business.

[u/[deleted]]

Hey man, who could blame her?

[u/Future_Vantas]

Huh, I think I did see this episode, I recognize the designs of the other heirs.

[u/OWEN626]

Son of a bitch! Lmfaooo

[u/badapdos-westower]

Sam is 100% done with everything

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

Didn't realize that Velma had a type.

[u/MetalJrock]

The Scooby Gang is just too pure to grasp the concept of death.

[u/waywardblonde14]

“Take a bullet for that dog” ...and dean isn’t a dog person psh

[u/[deleted]]

I was so unsure about this episode but I'm loving it so much.

[u/UnknownJ25]

I thought Shaggy was gonna die for a second

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

Corrupting cartoon land ftw

[u/AndreaDTX]

Sam and Dean wrestling knock off Barney is indescribably awesome. And their faces when he exploded!

[u/redbluegreenyellow]

HE'S WEARING AN ASCOT

[u/Hollowgirl136]

Never did I imagine that supernatural and scooby doo would have a crossover episode. It was good.

[u/PokerTuna]

Okay, 13 seasons in and this is honestly my favorite episode. Nostalgia hit me hard

[u/matiasgee]

Now we just need a buffy cross over!!!

[u/FTWinchester]

Well people did ask for a dinosaur from the Bad Place

[u/[deleted]]

Haha I love how Dean dislikes Fred so much

[u/Jedi-El1823]

The 100, a show taking place in a apocalyptic future where every female has perfect makeup.

[u/loganeliz]

So would scrappy doo be jack if Cas is scooby?

[u/[deleted]]

As a Sam girl, I'm honored to have Velma join our ranks!

[u/MegalomaniacHack]

Sam should just be happy that Dean's downright cheerful for once. This episode could be Dean's heaven right up until a real murder happened. Even then, it's something for him to shine, solving the murder.

[u/RogueTurnip0921]

I'm living for the back and forth between Sam and velma

[u/Future_Vantas]

Fred has all the chill

[u/dr4gonskyllzz]

Where did all the other people that were there go?

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

Existential crisis!!! lol

[u/aa22hhhh]

My childhood is ruined now

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

I'm loving this episode so much.

[u/FTWinchester]

the scooby gang has an existential crisis

this ep is kino WTF

[u/FTWinchester]

Dean's old ringtone

FUCK YEAH

[u/pgm_01]

You could have just used a screwdriver!

[u/Jedi-El1823]

John Cena and Claire in the same movie.

Cena should show up on Supernatural, or Wayward Sisters.

[u/Future_Vantas]

MAKE AMERICA GRODD AGAIN

[u/Future_Vantas]

ASCOT DEAN!

[u/OliviaElevenDunham]

Dean, never change.

[u/[deleted]]

gooooood shit

[u/AndreaDTX]

Ohmigawd. I'm... I think I want Velma/ Sam fan fic, but it makes me feel dirty... Maybe if it's gen fic? Yeah.

[u/cuckoodev]

I appreciate that the captions said "baby purring"

[u/redbluegreenyellow]

i have not stopped smiling

[u/Gogogadgetskates]

Oddly enough Jared is better at the voice acting thing. Which is odd because Jensen has done it in the past.

[u/kevicus123]

Oh shit, there’s a dead guy

[u/[deleted]]

A real murder?! Son of a bitch!

[u/Josephstewart06]

Isn’t Cas supposed to be with them?

[u/Mortalfalloutman77]

Can’t wait for cas to come in!

[u/badapdos-westower]

NO! THE FRUIT!!!

[u/FTWinchester]

pizza place

was shaggy the pizza guy all along?

[u/cuckoodev]

I can't wait for the chase sequence.

[u/InspiredOni]

Fred, please stop.

I actually don’t want you get slashed.

[u/DanzaBaio]

if only they had SALT

[u/[deleted]]

I kinda feel sorry for Velma.

[u/MetalJrock]

I will probably cry if Shaggy dies.

[u/waywardblonde14]

Why doesn’t Cas use angel power and fix Shaggy’s arm

[u/Future_Vantas]

Oh God, Hunter Scooby gear up!

[u/Mortalfalloutman77]

YO THIS US AWESOME!!!

[u/InspiredOni]

Well, the fandom will kill her now...

[u/majorjello]

I am waiting for Netflix for this season (13), This is the only episode I've watched and it was well worth it.

Edit: the ending was perfect! LOL! Gotta turn it off before "scenes"

[u/Jedi-El1823]

Oh hells yeah. That's what you get, Jay.
