** In contrast to the usual Creator/HannaBarbera style, the characters are redesigned in Warner Bros. Animation's typical "house" style of the time for this series (resembling a show produced by [[Creator/SonyPicturesTelevision Adelaide Productions]], such as ''WesternAnimation/MenInBlack'' and ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'' -- both of which also aired on Kids' WB). It hits some characters more strongly than others, like Velma's redesigned body shape. And it advertised itself with Fred missing his ascot.

** In "It's All Greek to Scooby", the centaur turns out to be Lysander's assistant...who Scooby-Doo and the gang don't meet until they pull the Centaur's mask off. Velma angrily declares that it doesn't count because of this.

* AgeLift: In the production bible of the original series ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooWhereAreYou'', the characters were teenagers, with Fred and Shaggy being the oldest at 17 and Velma being the youngest at 15. While most of the subsequent series have hinted toward the characters becoming older, [[VagueAge but it's never explained just how old they are.]] If the show's ValentinesDayEpisode is anything to go by, they must be at least 18 or older (since they're all shown to be living on their own)[[note]]Daphne and Velma live together in one house while Fred, Shaggy and Scooby live together in another house back in their hometown[[/note]].

** Most notable episode with this trope is Vampire Strikes Back, with three moments total, the first on the first vampire, second on Daphne as she screams, and the third on the second vampire starting the chase sequence.(Almost happened with Thorn as well, but was left as a MouthScreen moment instead.)

** Music/SimplePlan, who performed the series' theme song, voice animated versions of themselves in "Simple Plan and the Invisible Madman".



** Pretty consistently, if the monster is some kind of robot or techno-terror (like a hostile robot or a [[AutomatedAutomobiles Killer Mystery Machine]]), it's real. This is consistent with the occasional way-out science-fiction explanations for the more conventional hoaxes.

** Janet Lawrence in "Space Ape At The Cape" has been working on space data, ordering people not to see her work even if they have clearance, and studying a so-called alien egg. The alien seems to hatch and grow overnight, running wild at the space station. [[spoiler:It turns out that a bit of reality undoes the scheme: Janet's research wasn't ready, and the alien scam was to keep her from being found out. She was being snippy even to her coworkers, who assume that she was stressed about the rampaging alien but misunderstood. Velma realized that the "egg" was dehydrated organic material, thanks to Shaggy playing with the food dehydrator, and Janet added water to make her fake egg explode. To top it all off, Janet's supposed alien find attracted the attention of the FBI, who are interested in the possibility of galaxy life, and said agent realizes in a matter of days that Janet's work was fraudulent]].

* Talking animal: subverted, in this version it is understood that Scooby is not an abnormal talking dog within this universe, his lines would just be thoughts that only the spectators can hear while the characters do not act as if they understand what the dog said undeniably , when Scooby needs to communicate and be understood he tends to resort to mimicry instead of simply speaking (dynamics similar to what happens with the cat Garfield), despite this, there are examples of dialogues where it would be much more likely that humans would have understood the what the dog said instead of guessing or that the reaction was a coincidence

The ninth incarnation of ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'', the show lasted for three seasons, airing from 2002 to 2006. Essentially a modernized (as well as more realistic) version of ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooWhereAreYou'' -- it also parodies many conventions from the older series of the franchise.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Foreshadowing}}: In "E-Scream" there are a couple of hints to show that Velma never left Dr. Ostwald's virtual reality game, the rest of the gang aren't wearing their convention costumes seen at the beginning of the episode, Fred didn't want the gang to split up, Daphne wore a green shoe instead of another purple one and didn't care about them not matching, Shaggy and Scooby actively volunteered to be live bait, and the big giveaway was that Shaggy said "Toinks" instead of "Zoinks".

* PolarPenguins: A young penguin accompanies the gang in "Uncle Scooby and Antarctica".
* PoorlyDisguisedPilot: The episode "Camp Comeoniwannascareya" and the recurring guest appearances of the Secret Six puppies both come off like backdoor pilots for two separate spinoffs.
* PreciousPuppies: The Secret Six are a group of six golden retriever puppies that appear in several episodes. And they are adorable, especially when they're performing military exercises.
* PunnyName: Nearly every episode has a guest character or two with such names.


Added DiffLines:

* PapaWolf: Do not menace puppies or small children in front of Scooby-Doo, lest he remember that he's a very large, very strong dog. "Homeward Bound" showcases this best, when Scooby flat out tackles the Cat-Creature when it menaces the Secret Six.
