xposted from wylScooby-Doo: Mystery Inc. episode 26 (season finale) aired tonight. Nobody cares about the series except me, but I think it deserves e-nerds attention more than that amusing, but ultimately for toddlers My Little Pony cartoon. And anyone who gave Adventure Time a shot should give this one a chance. At least some of the people who worked on Venture Bros. works on this, too.
I'm sort of conflicted, if I say some of the awesome things that happened in this show it will make an initial viewing less awesome. On the other hand, if I don't say anything, nobody will be interested. But I'll spoil-hide it to try and cover both bases.
Off the top of my head, here's some of the cool things that happened this season:

- Cameos by Speed Buggy, Jabberjaw, Funky Phantom, and Captain Caveman in a dream sequence.
- Cameo by the main cast of Johnny Quest.
- Fred and Daphne remarking of Scrappy and Flim Flam statues "Never again."
- Vincent Van Ghoul is an actual character, who in the Scooby universe makes cheesy horror movies.
- HP Hatecraft is a (recurring) character, and in the Scooby universe is renowned for his novel "Char Gar Gothakon: The Beast Which Hath No Name". He had an entire episode dedicated to his battle with the female author of teen vampire romance novels.
They also confirmed that Blue Falcon and Dynomutt will appear next season, and the Johnny Quest cast will have some involvement too.
Anyways, as for the episode itself, it ended on a massive cliffhanger with the gang broken up, and sets up an overarching series villain and plot motivation.

It also notably revealed that the Mayor was not Fred's dad, and that his mother and father are currently missing.
Basically makes me want the second season all the more.
It's basically a show for anyone who has ever liked Scooby at any point in their lives.
