E still tries to sabotage him as possible,]] but Brad and Judy instead reinforce [[spoiler:their alliance with Pericles, forming another Duumvirate that lasts until the end]]

** The show itself is stylistically set in what looks to be the 60s or 70s, vinyl records and the like have their place but such futuristic marvels like cassette players, compact discs and cellphones make appearances. Despite the presence of laptops, desktops by in large are bulky and resemble computers from the early 80's.

* AllWomenAreLustful: Velma and Daphne are both shown to be much more sexually aggressive than either of their respective love interests, with Shaggy being generally hesitant and timid about openly expressing his feelings and Fred being heavily implied to be [[UsefulNotes/{{Asexuality}} asexual]].

** "Mystery Solvers Club State Finale", paying homage to Creator/HannaBarbera's Scooby-Doo rip-offs, without any Mr. E., nor Pericles.

** "Mystery Solvers Club State Finale", paying homage to many of the Creator/HannaBarbera Scooby-Doo rip-offs, without any Mr. E., nor Pericles.

** "Heart of Evil", with Blue Falcon and Dynomutt. Mind you, Blue Falcon is a walking homage to Franchise/{{Batman}} as written by Creator/FrankMiller, but the whole thing is basically played for laughs and but for a sole scene has no immediate effect on the rest of the series.

*** Becomes HilariousInHindsight when it turns out Principal Shepherd is divorced, and a story arc is about Brian & Stewie suspecting him of murdering his wife (he didn't). Creator/PatrickWarburton's character, Officer Swanson, [[RelationshipVoiceActor is also involved in that story arc]].

** Episode 37 features Tom and Tubb from the old Moby-Dick cartoons, along with their pet seal, [[NamesTheSame also named Scooby]] (Moby has been reimagined as a whale-shaped sub). And their fathers are referred to as being Paul Williams and Michael Murphy.

Actually, the final version however actually uses newer designs for Mystery Inc. plus a much DarkerAndEdgier take complete with a MythArc that features Professor Pericles and Mr. E. The initial concept for the series would later re-worked into DTV films starting in 2010 with ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooAbracadabraDoo'' with same designs for Mystery Inc. and tone as the one that [[WhatCouldHaveBeen should have been]].

* AdultFear:
** It turns out that Fred Jones Sr. [[spoiler:''kidnapped Fred as a baby'', taking him away from his real parents and feeding lie after lie to him, bringing the issue of parents not just lying to you, but not really owning you and treating you that way]].
** Brad, Judy, and Fred Sr. turn out to have this trope upon revelations in "Nightmare In Red": [[spoiler:Their loving sides were [[EnemyMine sealed away]] by [[HatePlague the Curse]], leading to them nearly ''killing'' their own son a few times out of selfishness. At least Mayor Jones wasn't as affected earlier, enough for him to [[ConscienceMakesYouGoBack realize]] [[PapaWolf Fred was going to die because of him]]. Mayor Jones also implies that [[AndIMustScream their good sides are all aware of what they've done in the physical world]] and [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone feel remorse for it.]]]]
** [[spoiler: In season 2 episode 24 Fred, Daphne and Velma's parents for a brief moment believe their children are killed when Fred blows up the Mystery Machine. Even after this they, along with Shaggy and Scooby immediately leave to confront the old Mystery Inc, a threat that could get them killed.]]

* [[spoiler:CosmicRetcon: The demise of the Nibiru Entity erases it from existence. As a result, its influence is removed from history, changing Crystal Cover to a normal, happy town and giving the original Mystery Inc the lives they ''should'' have had without his influence]].

* AmbiguouslyBi: Velma is in a relationship with Shaggy in the beginning of the series, but looks at [[MsFanservice Daphne]] in a bikini with approval and has a RomanticTwoGirlFriendship with [[spoiler:Hot Dog Water]] in Season 2.

* AllWomenAreLustful: Velma and Daphne are both shown to be much more sexually aggressive than either of their respective love interests, with Shaggy being generally hesitant and timid about openly expressing his feelings and Fred being heavily implied to be [[{{Asexuality}} asexual]].

** Exaggerated/PlayedForLaughs in cases where the villains use elaborate criminal means to attain a goal it'd be cheap, easy, and ''perfectly legal'' to attain otherwise, e.g. dressing up to steal a painting in "The Secret Serum" that wouldn't even have cost ''four dollars'' to buy.
