The freeze frame on that last one is...wrong.
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 30 April 2010 16:49 (fourteen years ago) link
Scrappy is great at identifying evidence and then using rational thought to interpret that evidence. He does this out loud for the audience, in real time, so kids can sort of see the process that someone would go through to solve a mystery to an extent that isn't nearly as evident in the early TV shows.

I disagree. I think that kids will better learn to solve problems by examining the evidence in real time, rather than going back and being all "oh, look what they did there."

I didn't think it was possible for Scrappy Doo to be more annoying, and then I encountered Scrappy Doo in Greek

Going back and being all "look what they did there" means they work out the show's formula and then start looking for clues themselves in following episode rather than being spoon-fed "THIS IS A CLUE!" by Scrappy, leading to improved mystery solving skills in later life.

onimo OTM, scrappy is for kids who need a flashing sign above the clue
writer who first came up w/scrappy should be killed

Most kids need a sign flashing above the clue. That's why this country is slipping so far behind in producing professional scientists, engineers, and doctors!

they don't, actually, imo. most kids are a lot smarter than adults give them credit for. scrappy doo is adult writers condescending very badly to kids, which is why most kids (now grown ups on this thread) instinctively went "fuck this, give me back my somewhat lame but mainly cool mystery cartoon"

I'll give you this. I was being a little inflammatory*. I think kids need a little bit of walking through processes and a lot of room to explore. Scrappy's really good at the latter.
*I am largely just being a little inflammatory here, on this parody thread, which is not even about Scrappy Doo. It's about Goofy. Remember Goofy?

scooby-doo is so fucking bad, like even little kids can tell it sucks and is boring, a pup named scooby-doo is the only incarnation that is not just hateful towards its audience in its shittiness and ugliness and so imo focusing on scrappy as a problem is kind of a red herring (!)

@ thread title change
I think my equivalent of Scrappy is that fucking singing and dancing alien they introduced near the end of the movie Explorers. Loved the first 2/3 of that movie so much as a kid. Hated that alien. Hated it so much.

Scrappy Doo is neither intelligent nor courageous. He is a parasite. He must be crushed between the hooves of an angry cow if we are to make any progress on this planet.

This little kid agreed w/you but still watched it because it was the only cartoon in a certain timeslot. But I hated every minute. Would rather watch the worst episode of Thundarr than the finest episode of Scooby Doo, a cartoon dedicated to the premise that THERE IS NO ACTUAL MAGIC IN THE WORLD, ONLY AVARICE
