It is not bad, the update is more geared towards Fred's shirt, the sound, and the theme song than anything else.Otherwise the bulk of the series is much like the original runs, straight down to the masks.The animation is sleeker, less repetitive in the backgrounds, but over all we have the same show that we fell in love with all those decades ago.It's hard not to like the series when it is Scooby Doo to the core.

What's New Scooby Doo isn't a bad show, I just prefer the Hanna Barbara cartoon. What I do like about this show is the music, the theme tune is very good, and the songs featured are not so bad either. The animation is very colourful and bright, but what it lacks is that Hanna Barbara touch I have come to know and love. What's New Scooby Doo? I believe is an improvement over Shaggy and Scooby Doo Get a Clue, which was a disgrace to the Scooby Doo name, and this has nothing to do with Casey Kasem being Shaggy(I have seen the movies where he's not Shaggy and most of them are surprisingly good).-it was poorly animated, thinly plotted and the voice cast was not at all good, in my opinion that is. The characters I had little problem with the characters, though I did wish Scooby had a bigger role to play, and no offence to Frank Welker but I do prefer Don Messick, who sadly died in 1997. The other characters are fine, Casey Kasem has still got it as Shaggy. Another problem I had, was that the villains were rather predictable, and the show, while funny at times, does lack the humour and charm that made the original show such a childhood delight. The plots are more of the same, and not always interesting, but it is an improvement over the Scooby and Scrappy show. All in all, not at all bad, but not great either. 6/10 Bethany Cox

I am watching this right now, I taped it off of the TV. Because it was too early to watch on a Saturday. well the voices are pretty good, Scooby,s never been the same since Don Messick passed away. Frank Welker is a voice god, but I give his Scooby a B-. And the girl who does Velma, sounds OK but it really sounds a lot like shes still doing "Nancy" from kids from room 402. but maybe this show will take off. lets hope. frankly I thought that they should have just made Scooby movies. they made enough TV shows and screwed Scooby over with scrappy but this looks like it will be better. I say good luck to these creators. Re- write This Show is not good looking back. I don't know why I wrote this good of a comment. I read a lot of the other peoples posts here, and I see we are mostly on the same page. Frank Welker CANNOT do Scooby Doo, he sounds like "Chicken Boo" from the old "Animaniacs" Cartoon. Basically this is the worst Scooby series I have ever seen.

Scooby and the original gang are back for a new generation -- this time with computers, cellphones, onboard navigational systems and all the other technological advancements we've come to know.It's the original "Mystery 5" (no annoying Scrappy this time), with Kasem and Welker reprising their roles and Grey DeLisle and Mindy Cohn voicing Daphne and Velma. The stories (at least judging by the first episode), hark back to the original "Scooby Doo, Where Are You?," with the gang foiling the bad guys (who have the upper hand with new technology to build better monsters). The animation is better than it's ever been in a Scooby TV series. The new theme song by the fantastic Canadian band Simple Plan (who had a song in the live-action movie) fits the show like a glove, and they've even brought back the original score from the 1969 series... Plus there's chase scenes underscored with new tunes! All in all, the series has gotten a great makeover, and it's destined to become a classic!
