TTG does Scooby-Doo!
Milk_Tray_Guy18 January 2022
'The New Scooby-Doo Movies' (1972), to be precise.

Robin = Fred, Starfire = Daphne, Raven = Velma (with glasses!), Cyborg = Shaggy, Beast Boy = Scooby (of course!). Plus guest star LeBron James, voicing himself.

A two-headed ghoul is haunting an amusement park, and this gang of 'teenage mystery-solvers' take the case! We get musical chase scene, lost glasses, ridiculous trap, ludicrous unmasking, and of course a 'meddling kids' comment! 6/10.

Best parody for season 3 so far
tinyfordst7 June 2017
If you've seen this you no doubt know that it is a parody of Scooby Doo Teen Titans go style. The reason I love Teen Titans go is because of episodes like these, they ridicule everyday things that people do without thinking and in this case they brilliantly captured the totally ridiculous moments of scooby doo. Typical behavior like "my glasses" to the revealing of the bad guys wearing fifty million masks. Scooby shouting and becoming huge, scooby and shaggy's hunger always striking.

When you want to watch a good superheroes show watch the old teen titans, if you want to watch a good parody show Teen Titans Go is definitely a go to.

A BIG middle finger to 'Scooby-Doo!' fans.
pgasael29 May 2016
I like the 'Be Cool, Scooby Doo!' series. But, on this year, the 'brilliant' TTG executives decided to cash-in the franchise.

This episode caused me to stop watching 'Teen Titans Go!' and go watch the outstanding original 'Teen Titans', because this show is disrespectful, insulting and a big 'F--k you' to the Teen Titans fans as darkshadow-80016 says. This episode, I will not recommend it, along with the other episodes except for '40% 40% 20%' (looking like you're watching the originals), 'The Fourth Wall' (a great satire you must see) and 'Finally a Lesson' (Because of this quote: '...but planning for your future is no joke!' -Robin).

THE GOOD: The Adobe Animate CC animation may be colourful, the voice acting is nice, and some are the gags are funny.

THE BAD: But this episode not only gives the middle finger to the Teen Titans fans, it ALSO gives big middle fingers of fans of LeBron James and 'Scooby-Doo!'. First of all, they used the formula of the 1969 original. That looks pretty out-of-place. Secondly, why is there canned laughter on a 'Teen Titans' show? Also, some of the laughing is poorly low-quality and poorly placed. That is ALSO out-of-place. THIS IS TEEN TITANS! They're superheroes! They're supposed to be fighting crime! Not solve Mysteries! Moving on...

Third, the characters act a little out of character. Robin is Fred Jones, Starfire is Daphne Blake, Raven is Velma Dinkley, Cyborg is Shaggy Rogers and Beast Boy is Scoobert Doo. Again, this is TEEN TITANS and ALSO out-of-place.

Fourth, the gags aren't comical, the 'Imma go dribble over here...dribble dribble..' gag is funny, but all off them rips off your favorite gags from Scooby Doo. Remember the 'Danger Prone Daphne' gag? Well, they cash it on with their stupid 'Safety Hazard Starfire' gag.

Sixth, EVERYTHING in this episode is wrong. See 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th for more info why is wrong.

In conclusion, the episode gives us a gigantic middle finger to Scooby fans. I will not recommend it at all. I will recommend the original Teen Titans.

SCORE: 46% F-
