** [[spoiler: The new universe more or less rebuilds itself to leave a suitable space for the gang. It's possible that it altered history enough that Brad ''Chiles'' was Brad ''Jones'' instead, by having one of Brad's ancestors change his name to match a stepfather's or something.]]

* It sure was lucky that Aphodite's love potion [[NoSell didnt have an effect on animals]] thereby allowing Scooby and [[spoiler:Pericles]] to gather the ingredients for a cure. Given the reveal [[spoiler: that Pericles was the one who sent Aphodite the information on how to make the potion, this makes sense. He wouldn't want the potion to affect HIM after all.]]

* It was baffling that the gang STILL can't figure out that the "monsters" are people in costumes (usually). After watching episode 11, realization came that they have these beliefs because the adults of the town also share the same ideas, given that Crystal Cove is titled "the most haunted place on earth." There's also the fact the monsters in this series are the most realistic to date. The guys making suits in this one are frighteningly good at it.

They also tend to be ''much'' more violently-destructive than in previous series, meaning that even if they '''are''' suspected of being fake, they're still plenty ''dangerous'' and merit running away from.

* After Scooby's AllJustADream episode, [[TheFlintstones Pebbles and Bam-Bam]] (somehow) making a cameo in the Man-Crab episode, the WesternAnimation/JonnyQuest gang making a few small appearances, and finally BlueFalconAndDynomutt guest-staring, it looks as though show isn't just a modernized reboot of the Scooby-Doo franchise, it's a modernized reboot of Hanna-Barbera itself!

** Becomes significant in the series finale when it turns out [[spoiler:he's a soccer coach for the high school team in the new universe]].
* In "Wrath of the Krampus", since it gets explained that Mayor Nettles went to the prison herself to recruit Mary Ann into the scheme, it makes sense that she probably talked to ex-Mayor Jones to recruit him, since Fred implies that the gang weren't the ones that talked to him. Of course, Fred can't bring himself to talk to 'his father' right now, Shaggy sucks at talking to people, the rest of Mystery Incorporated always thought he was obnoxious, and Sheriff Stone probably can't bring himself to talk to his criminal boss either. Mayor Nettles was probably the best person to talk to him, since they can't riff on each other besides being each others' replacements and she's smart enough to know how to persuade him (i.e. something like "''Fred'' told me I could trust you, and now I'm not so sure.", implying that Fred still loves him, though an alternative interpretation that he won't consider is that Fred knows how greedy he is). She's a politician, after all.



* In the pilot episode, we see a museum showing the costumes of some of Mystery Inc's RoguesGallery, including Charlie the Funland Robot. Unlike the other villains, Charlie wasn't a man in a costume, he was an actual android. At the end of his debut episode, he gets reprogrammed to act more friendly. This implies that even after his redemption, his creator, the caretaker, eventually shut him down for good and sold him to a museum. [[spoiler: Of course, Charlie later comes out of retirement...]]

* Fridge Sadness: Why did Mayor Jones help out in the Krampus scheme, despite that he likely wouldn't receive anything in return (due to how bad his crimes were)? It isn't simply just a {{revenge}} plot against the original Mystery Incorporated or doing the right thing for once out of love for his son... Since the Season 1 finale showed that he still loved Fred and was heartbroken when [[IHaveNoFather he disowned & left him]], wouldn't he be elated to hear that his 'son' wants his [[ParentalSubstitute adoptive father]]'s help to backstab his [[IHaveNoFather biological parents]]? As far as Jones can understand, his 'son' wants him back, or at least gives Jones one more time to instate a legacy via helping his 'son' finish what he could not; find the treasure and bask it all its glory.

** He doesn't have any gadgets (that we know of), because as he explains in his confession, his original intent behind wearing the Freak costume was to hide his identity while hunting for clues and scare off anyone that came across him while he did so.

Besides, we already know that he doesn't have that much intuition in using other tools like the Internet anyway.

* A common criticism towards the show is the CharacterDerailment[=/=]CharacterExaggeration of the characters, especially the gang. Considering their world is a [[CrapsakeWorld crapsake one]], they're a product of their environment that will continue to cycle. And as the show reveals more of its plot, it turns out [[TheCorruptor an Evil Entity]] has been influencing the events of the show this entire time. Previous mystery-solving groups have broken apart and failed because of their growing insanity from this Entity, and Daphne even explicitly wonders out loud after this revelation if any of them would even be friends without the Entity choosing them to be [[TheChosenOne the chosen ones]]. [[spoiler:This becomes ironic in the new universe when the gang are still friends with each other and with numerous other characters (and with better relations this time), most of the characters don't seem to have any mental problems in this world, and a common theory about the new universe is that [[AscendedToAHigherPlaneOfExistence Nova]] was the one who made it happen.]]

* Fred's fake mother. It is never explicitly stated that she was ever Mayor Jones's ''wife'' ("That's Fred's mom. She left when he was only a baby."), implying that [[HeroicBastard Fred was born out of wedlock]]. Since this would therefore mean that Fred was probably unplanned, that puts into perspective why Mayor Jones is so neglectful of him; he didn't want or plan for a kid in the first place.
** Alternatively, if she trusted him enough to leave him with Fred, then either she made a HorribleJudgeOfCharacter of him or she was his MoralityPet and he slipped because she wasn't around to mind him (or [[MaternalDeathBlameTheChild he blames the pregnancy for her leaving]]).
** "All Fear the Freak" reveals that Mayor Jones was still in college when he forced the original Mystery Incorporated into exile, and it isn't indicated if he had graduated by the time Brad and Judy returned to Crystal Cove with Fred, so him having Fred edges ''very'' close to the possibility that he and his "ex" had Fred ''while'' in college or at the very beginning of their careers. Fred's mother could have left because [[CareerVersusFamily she wanted to focus on her career over having a family while young]].

The next scene was of the Freak attacking Shaggy and Scooby at their house in an attempt to steal the piece. Offscreen, Fred probably realized that his father being gone from the house at the same time the Freak was at the Rogers' residence was not a coincidence.

* In the past of [[spoiler: the [[spoiler:the Nibiru reality]], the gang encountered a variety of different monsters that were then put on display in Mrs. Dinkley's museum -- the Creeper, the Space Kook, Charlie the Robot, etc. If [[spoiler: the new reality is ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooWhereAreYou'']], then they're going to run into all those monsters again ... and not recognize a single one of them. "Foul Play in Funland" would have been a lot shorter if the gang's reaction was just "[[NoSell Oh, Charlie the Robot's acting up again]]" ...

** When the Freak saves Fred's life, he just pauses and stands there for a second before turning to run, almost as if he didn't quite know what he was doing. [[spoiler: It's possible he didn't. Mayor Jones' subconscious "better side" in the Sitting Room acted up when he heard his son's cries for help.]]

Added DiffLines:

* With the reveal of [[spoiler:The Evil Entity corrupting everyone close to the gang, as well as their predescessors]], Scrappy and Flim-Flam's presence in the spook museum. Considering Flim-Flam is a pre-teen con artist, while Scrappy is an over-achieving BoisterousWeakling, they'd probably give Mystery Inc more to deal with besides the treasure. [[spoiler: The Entity probably corrupted these two and ruined their relationship with the gang(and by extension their cousins) to keep them out of the way.]]

* [[spoiler: Since all the ScoobyDooHoax cases were created by the Evil Entity, how can they expect to find any mysteries of the sort they enjoy on the road at all? Logically speaking, they should find nothing but ordinary crimes (and few of those if no WeirdnessMagnet is in operation for them, and people don't have any reason to ask for their help based on their reputation). This should not be the start of ScoobyDooWhereAreYou, but of a long period of boring disappointment for the gang. Perhaps Nova or other good Anunnaki will intervene to give them cases.]]
