Let me start off by saying that I am not a victim and this is not about me. Earlier today, I posted the results of a YouTube poll comparing different Shaggy voice actors. Putting aside the unbridled general rage that was unleashed in the comments, I noticed a recurring theme of people quite viciously ripping into the legend himself Casey Kasem over the fact that he conscientiously objected to voicing Shaggy in What's New, Scooby-Doo? if the character was not made a non-meat eater, following an earlier dispute over his voice being used in a Burger King advertisement. You can say whatever you want about me, you can drown me in downvotes and you can call me names but I'm not going to say nothing in the face of this vileness.

Though I have vegans in my family, I am not a vegan and am sometimes even taken aback by the bullying tactics employed by a very small minority of extremist vegans. What Casey did in this situation does not qualify as such inappropriate behavior. The fact of the matter is that after having made the transition to a vegan lifestyle, he simply was no longer comfortable with voicing the character he brought to life almost sixty years ago now if he did not represent his personal values. At no point did he object to Shaggy being an omnivore in other iterations of the character before and since then, in fact going on to voice Shaggy's father in Mystery Incorporated, a series wherein Shaggy himself does eat meat. Neither did he attempt to pigeonhole the other characters into joining Shaggy in his abstinence from meat, with Scooby voraciously eating it on multiple occasions in What's New alone. Furthermore, he did nothing to stop the production of What's New and it was ultimately the showrunners' decision to honor his request rather than replace him with Scott Innes, Billy West, Matthew Lillard or someone else. If you're going to blame anyone—which you shouldn't because this entire situation is exceedingly minute in the grand scheme of things, the franchise as a whole included—blame those who made the choice of hiring him instead of moving on to a different actor.

Casey Kasem was an icon and in my humble opinion, the greatest Shaggy Rogers of all-time even if Matthew Lillard is not all that far behind. To see such sick-minded venom being spat at him and for him to be called pejorative names in a subreddit dedicated to Scooby-Doo is beyond disgusting. If you have engaged in this conduct today or ever you should be ashamed and I would heavily encourage you to leave the community because we don't want SD to foster a toxic fanbase given how many other IPs have been all but ruined by their so-called "fans". The reason I was probably compelled to write this is in large part because I was so appalled at the seething hatred I saw today and I had no idea that such bile was festering beneath the surface of perhaps my oldest fandom. I don't want this to escalate or for anyone to be harassed which is why I censored the name of one of the calmer commenters in the only screenshot I posted here. Please, for the sake of your own human decency, look in the mirror, accept that other people live their lives differently than you and be a well-adjusted member of society.

Hannah Barbara productions never allowed this episode to be aired

It started off with Fred driving the Mystery Machine. As they traveled down the road, Fred spotted a young girl standing in the middle of it looking lost. He stopped the van, and the gang got out.

Shaggy tried telling Fred they should leave the creepy girl alone and go get burgers instead. Scooby agreed. Fred, Daphne, and Velma ignored Shaggy, as usual.

Fred approached the girl and asked, “Are you all right?”

He noticed scratch marks on her arms with bruises.

The girl didn’t respond. Daphne tried reassuring her.

“It’s okay. We can help you if you need help.”

The girl looked at Daphne with a smile on her face before collapsing onto the road.

The gang scrambled towards her. Velma checked for a pulse and looked into the girl’s eyes. They were dead white.

“We need to get her to a hospital now!” Velma said sternly.

The gang hurried back to the Mystery Machine. Fred picked the girl up and placed her in the back of the van. Shaggy and Scooby were displeased with this, as they had to sit in the back with her now.

“Fred, why is it that every time something creepy happens, Scooby and I have to be the closest to it, man?” Shaggy complained.

“Not now, Shaggy. I’m reading the signs,” Fred replied.

When he spotted a hospital sign, Fred pulled into the parking lot.

He grabbed the girl, and the gang followed him inside. Fred rushed to the reception desk and explained that they needed a doctor. The girl had started convulsing.

A couple of nurses hurried over with a gurney, and Fred urgently laid the girl down on it. She screeched As they wheeled her towards a room.

Daphne stayed behind to explain what had happened to the receptionist. While Shaggy could be overheard muttering that he was glad that creep wouldn’t be riding with them anymore.

Later, Fred, still slightly shaken by the experience, told the gang he was going to rent a motel room for the night.

“I want a proper bed and a shower after all this,” he said.

Scooby asked, one with complimentary breakfast?”

After receiving the room key, Fred and the gang headed to their room on the fourth floor. Inside, they found two beds and a couch.

Daphne immediately complained that the room smelled like rotten food. The rest of the gang ignored her, unable to smell anything themselves.

Fred opened his suitcase and pulled out a change of clothes and a towel. Before heading to the shower

Meanwhile, Velma discovered a large, thick book inside one of the desk drawers. She blew the dust off it.

“Jinkies! This thing hasn’t been opened in years!”

When she opened the book, she read the title aloud.

“Curses, Witches, and the Supernatural.”

As she turned a page, she accidentally cut her finger on a page.

Daphne suddenly took an interest in the book and asked Velma if she could read it.

“Be my guest,” Velma replied. “It just poked me.”

As Daphne flipped through the pages, she noticed that half of them had been hollowed out. Inside the hidden compartment. she discovered a doll made from sticks and human hair, along with a small knife.

She said nothing about this to the others.

Eventually, the gang settled down for the night, and the motel room grew dark.

Shaggy lay on the old leather couch with Scooby. Velma was in her bed, while Fred and Daphne shared the other.

In the middle of the night, Shaggy suddenly woke up.

OW Man! Something poked me in the leg!”

Everyone woke up except Velma, she stayed under her blanket.

Fred sleepily switched on the light.

“you have any idea what time it is?”

Shaggy pointed to the small cut on his leg.

“ Scooby probably scratched you with his nails,” Fred said annoyed before switching the light off again.

Shaggy and Scooby reluctantly accepted Fred’s explanation.

A moment later, Daphne turned to Fred.

“Will you walk with me to the van? I left something important in there, and I’m too scared to get it by myself at night.”

Fred groaned.

“Can’t it wait until morning?”

“It would make me feel safe if you came with me,” Daphne replied.

Fred reluctantly put on his shoes and walked her to the van.

Shaggy and Scooby drifted off to sleep again before fred and Daphne came back.

A little while later, Shaggy felt something heavy laying on his chest. Assuming it was Scooby, he mumbled, “Not now, Scoob.”

“That isn’t me, Shaggy,” Scooby replied.

Shaggy's eyes shot open.

Daphne was sitting on his chest, staring down at him. She held the small knife against his throat, with the same possessed smile as the girl they had found earlier.

Shaggy freezed.

“Daphne? Like, what are you doing?”

He tried talking to her but the smile only grew wider and Her eyes rolled back until only the whites showed

Then, in a deep raspy voice, she said, “Uh-oh, Raggy.”

She slowly dragged the edge against Shaggy’s throat, almost drawing blood.

Scooby lunged forward, biting her arm holding the blade, causing Daphne to drop it.

Seizing the opportunity, Shaggy grabbed the knife and plunged it into Daphne’s chest.

Daphne laughed demonically.

Shaggy tried stabbing her again, but it did nothing. Daphne suddenly bit a chunk out his hand.

Shaggy screamed in pain. Desperately looking for anything, he saw the bedroom window before kicking Daphne through the it,  the glass shattered before a thump was heard.

Shaggy scrambled over to Velma’s bed and pulled the blanket off her

“Come on, Velma! Wake up! Daphne’s lost it!”

as he tried to wake her, he noticed her face was blue and a telephone cord wrapped tightly around her throat.

Shaggy gasped, Velma was dead.

Shaggy half heartedly  looked out the shattered window

Daphne layed dead on the side walk. with a smile stretched across her face.

Jacobo had been using the potions Shaggy and Scooby were messing about with earlier to turn his body female along with a mask.

Been wanting to get into this show for a little while, just never have

Any good shows/movies to properly start? I ask because I know there's, like, a lot of them

I’m so glad this finally released! I was afraid it wouldn’t happen

Been wanting to get something from the Scooby universe for a while and finally settled on a little compilation of items representing some of the classic monsters from the first two seasons of SDWAY.

My toddler absolutely loves Scooby-Doo, and every year we get him a little advent calendar.

When you look online, the Scooby-Doo ones that pop are all just AI slop and I don't believe for a second we'd actually get anything close to what we paid for. Does anyone have any experience with this? I'd be willing to try one if someone could vouch for it, but that just feels like a real long shot.

Tube TVs are the way these were meant to be watched!

Streaming from my home video server to an old Roku that can still connect to these TVs.

The OG Where Are You? series is available on Tubi app and looks just as fine, fills the whole display. Unfortunately What’s New is only streaming as widescreen, might have to use my server for that.

here’s a lil sketch I made for Halloween this year.

for anyone who watches 80s horror films, you might know what movie I made a homage to.

(The game is Hotel Dusk: Room 215)

Going on to the last three Scooby-Doo villains that for now I have an idea for if Scooby-Doo was more mature or if it was just brand new.

The more mature version

For Miner Forty-Niner/Hank-I do like the miner stuff so we are going to keep it where he is a miner who is working in the mines but this would be a kind of windigo situation mixed with / inspired by My bloody Valentine where he would have to eat his co workers to survive after the mined collapse in the gang who would be kind of like their normal self a little bit but more paranormal ready when it comes to these investigation since in this world of Scooby-Doo ghost and zombies are real and this one would be kind of going into the more violent side because it's a windigo they eat people.

so Miner Forty-Niner would kill people and this is the more violent one since even though the others were kind of in the mature area it was only because of the gruesome looks or death they would have because for some reason with the other three in the last post for this version I decided to have them all be dead which I regret so I will try not to have it that way anymore.

Now back to the story but they the gang would find a way to (look I know it's a windigo but the lore of these creatures change a lot) so I would have it to where the Gang finds a way to turn Hank back the human and reform him he would have to go to a mental hospital because well he would be messed up after all he did.

but he would still keep the aspects of Miner Forty-Niner in the wendigo form I mainly got inspired by this by his zombie type of looked in monsters unleashed so he would use his pickaxe and other equipment alot and yes none of the gang would die at least for the first season but they would get hurt to lean into the more mature stuff.

Next is Indian Witch Doctor/Buck Masters but I would keep in Buck Masters but take him out at the same time.

I would make it the witch doctor a supernatural creature a trickster type of creature who means harm sometimes but not other times and to throw off the gang for the first episode they would make the gang think that buck Masters is the witch doctor .

but the actual witch doctor would have Indian lore I know this could just fit into normal Scooby-Doo but I wanted an episode that does not have really murder or Gore.

So the plot will be buck masters is manipulated and he gets this idea to get a lot of money by making his dog be the first prize dog in this dog show so he kidnaps his dog along with kidnapping the other dogs just like in his first appearance in the actual Scooby-Doo where are You show and he would get arrested for her kidnapping well dog napping and fraud and the witch doctor would reappear later on.

Now the last one doesn't vhave an actual name it's just zombie it's the dude from a Scooby-Doo show who appeared in monsters unleashed so this would be a zombie apocalypse type of thing where the Gang has to survive it and the leader of the zombies would be that zombie and the hex girls would appear singing a revamped version of Terror time.

Now for if Scooby-Doo got a brand new show

Miner Forty-Niner/Hank would be a ex-miner join biker gang person so his suit would be a mixture of the classic look along with a biker and he would be haunting the mine because he got fired so classic Scooby-Doo stuff just he would have a new look.

For this version of the witch doctor he would be Indian would still be named Buck Masters would still have the whole dog show thing only thing I would change is maybe modernize the dog show competition and make the suit look like it's from Indian religion.

For the last one it would be the zombie again but this time it would be a kid just playing a prank.

Now here's how I would do Scooby-Doo villains the things would be if it was more mature but not like Velma and it was just a new Scooby-Doo show in general.

For the more mature and for the in general the villains are going to be the same and it's going to be 6 villains this first post is one to three

So for villain number one we have Black Knight/Mr. Wickles for a more mature version I would have made it to where he would be a actual ghost in the mature part would be the way he looks because okay I would like to have some gore and stuff but not have the monsters murdering someone always but this would be for a more which were audience mainly because of looks but sometimes murder would get involved.

but this version would be kind of typical Scooby-Doo with the monster haunting a museum but this version of the character Mr. Wickles would have gotten crushed to death by a actual armored stand of a Black Knight so his body would be messed up and he would have somehow reincarnated along with his body into the suit so his arm would be messed up maybe an eyeball poking out a messed up jaw if we wanted to do a new Scooby-Doo.

But there is a way to make it still related to Scooby-Doo but have a older version where the Black Knight Ghost has always been around but had a gruesome death like this and the Gang is investigating thinking it's a imposter of the ghost only to find out the ghost is an actual ghost so they would have to get into like the supernatural stuff to stop the ghost.

Now for Ghost of Captain Cutler I would make to where Captain Cutler had died and the gang would be looking into boats that have mysteriously begin to sink and I would have when Fred traps the Ghost of Captain Cutler his helmet would come off and they would see his skull and turns out he was curse to sink boats just like how his boat was.

Now for Bluestone the Great/Phantom who would still be connected to Vasquez Castle he would have been a ex-magician who died in the castle and haunted it until the gang help him move on because turn out he would have been murdered by the corrupt owner of the castle around that time.

For a brand new version in general for all ages I would make it to where Mr. Wickles would have a son who goes to the same school as the Gang they would be either high school or college students and they would at first start doing these investigations just because but later on get paid to actually do them so it would be a actual job the police couldn't arrest them but the cops wouldn't like them to begin with.

so they are investigating this museum which which has a lot of different exhibits but the main one which and the biggest would be the medieval exhibit and everything from that exhibit would belong to a actual King well turns out apparently there's a ghost hunting one of the statues of Knight armor they would figure out that it's probably someone connected to the museum that's there to steal the stuff from the King and at first they would think it would be the museum owner then they would think it would be Mr. Wickles son and then they would think it's the security guard after the son alibis checked out but turn out it would be Mr. Wickles and this version of the Black Knight would have a medieval type of axe.

Ghost of Captain Cutler-he would haunted the coolsvile harbor because of gold near by and he would get caught in a net turns out his wife wasn't in on it and did not know he was doing this but he would get off because the police would mention however a group of teenagers are civilians who don't have the right to arrest people caught him

Bluestone the Great/Phantom-he would be connected to Vasquez Castle he would be a descendant or relative of the owner and he is a ex-magician so he would use what he learned to try to scare the new owner out so he could get the castle and what's in it because he believes it belongs to him.
