History WesternAnimation / ScoobyDooMysteryIncorporated

* GottaCatchEmAll: The six pieces of the Planespheric Disk. [[spoiler: As of the season 1 finale, Pericles has nabbed off with two of them.]]

** Episode 27: Crybaby Clown tells the gang that Mano Tiiki Tia (original series ep ''A Tiki Scare Is No Fair'') and the Ghost of Redbeard (''Go Away Ghost Ship'' and ''Ghostly Creep From The Deep'') are nothing compared to him.

** 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 casset players, compact disks and cellphones make appearances.

*** [[spoiler: It's Velma who has taken the initiative. Disguised as a mysterious stranger, she tells the new mayor of Crystal Cove, Janet Nettles, to get Mystery Inc. to solve the mystery of the Crybaby Clown. Scooby escapes from the farm and is rescued by Mayor Nettles, then he springs Shaggy from military school. The disguised Velma then rescues Fred from being blown up by the Crybaby Clown before revealing herself.]]

*** [[spoiler: Screenshots from episode 27 show that Scooby has already taken the first step, reuniting with Shaggy and Velma.]]

* AchillesInHisTent: [[spoiler: Episode 26-When Fred realizes that his [[WasItAllALie whole life has been a lie]], he leaves town and declares Mystery Incorporated to be dead. Good thing for him and the gang that Mr E has [[TheDeterminator Scooby]] pegged; once he works out his issues, the title character will speed along [[TenMinuteRetirement the process of getting things back to normal]].]]

** In episode 4, David Faustino plays a down-on-his-luck guy named Bud. [[MarriedWithChildren Huh, where have we seen that one before?]]

** In episode 12, HarlanEllison spouts out a paragraph about the monster, full of "f" words (but not ''the'' [[PrecisionFStrike F Word]]).

* AdultsAreUseless: In episode 2 none of the parents can give the kids a ride home, for reasons such as "I just got comfortable" and "It's dark out there". The kids were stranded alone in a small suspicious town that had recently been having people disappear.

* AlmightyMom: In ep. 20, how did Velma's mom know she had a visitor in her room (which she has to keep secret since the friend is a mermaid)? Mom spies on her through her blog.

** Between Shaggy and Velma in episode 2.
** In episode 13 Daphne puckers up to kiss Fred, who suddenly gets conveniently [[LookADistraction distracted]] after seeing his dad, the Mayor.

* AnswerCut: In episode 8 when the Queen says they must keep out the pirates because "Who knows what shambling low-lives will arrive?". Enter Shaggy and Scooby dressed as pirates.

* AsHimself: HarlanEllison voices [[SelfDeprecation an unflattering portrayal of himself]] in episode 12.
* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: While not quite near 50 feet, episode 9 features a pair of creatures dubbed Humungonauts.

* BigBad: The first season's is revealed to be [[spoiler: Mayor Jones]], while Professor Pericles is shaping up to be the next season's.
** BigBadEnsemble: [[spoiler: Jones]] and Pericles.

** Daphne at the end of episode 19, after not eating anything all day. Shaggy even remarks that this is the one time anyone has eaten more than him or Scooby.

** Yogi Bear shows up at the end of episode 10.

** About half the time, the gang's leads are off and they learn who the monster is at the same time the audience does. Jason even calls them out on jumping to conclusions when they accuse him in episode 10.

** An in-series nod in episode 10. The Mystery Machine runs out of gas and slows down, and Daphne says "Don't tell me the engine is missing again!" referring to when Mr. E removed it in episode 2.
** Another in-series nod in episode 15. After the cold open, the episode starts off at the Tiki nightclub, where Sheriff Stone congratulates Mayor Jones for re-opening the club after it was destroyed by the Humongonauts from episode 9.
** Yet another in-series nod in episode 20; simply put, Scooby still has no idea what, if anything, Skipper Shelton is talking about.
** More in-series references: The two teens who got abducted from episode 4's Man-Crab reappear as victims of the Manticore. As well as the owner of the amusement park wondering how they're going to sell their stock of Que Horrifico shirts and Char Gar Gothikon plushies.
** Episode 24 has Daphne worry whether her seafood allergy from episode 4 will act up with all the oysters around.

* CrazyPrepared: In episode 21, Fred explains to Velma that he gave the Planespheric disc piece [[spoiler: to Shaggy and Scooby cause they'd be the last person to have it.]] Episode 26 reveals that Shaggy and Scooby do have it in a bed/fridge that they keep in the case that they don't get an evening snack before bed.

The show is a notable spin on the universe, as it takes elements from nearly all that came before it, most strongly from the original series, while adding a somewhat edgier, more modern spin, with what you might call more ironic humor, as well as an on-going plotline. The show is aimed at an older audience than usual, and its general feel is more mature than the Scooby Universe usually gets, with lots of lampshade hangings, and ironic and sometimes darker humor -- in general, having fun with the conventions of the franchise.

* AlternateContinuity: Rather than follow in the footsteps of ''What's New, Scooby-Doo?'' or ''APupNamedScoobyDoo'', the show instead focuses on a new continuity that is still a continuation of the old show, but with a few differences. It is, however, in the same continuity as "The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo" and "Scooby Doo: The Movie" as Flim Flam is mentioned (he only appeared in the former) and Scrappy's betrayal is mentioned (He was the bad guy in the latter)

**** They're not all Monsters; Flim Flam, a member of the gang in "The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo" appears as does Scrappy, who, after the events of "Scooby Doo: The Movie" is no longer spoken about by the gang.

* AlternateContinuity: Rather than follow in the footsteps of ''What's New, Scooby-Doo?'' or ''APupNamedScoobyDoo'', the show instead focuses on a new continuity that is still a continuation of the old show, but with a few differences.

** [[LewisBlack It's almost disconcerting the Mr. E doesn't swear.]]

*** [[spoiler: Screenshots from episode 27 show that Scooby has already taken the first step, reuniting with Shaggy and Scooby.]]

* TheCameo: [[TheFlintstones Pebbles and Bam-Bam]] make an appearance at the beginning of episode four.

*** Averted in a later episode, in a BlinkAndYouMissItMoment, you can see the two having a full MakeOut session before Scooby interrupts them

** [[spoiler: Averted in episode 24; Fred proposes to marry Daphne, she accepts and they kiss.]]

* {{Crossover}}: "The Mystery Solvers Club State Finals" features Scooby-Doo teaming up with the sidekicks from ''WesternAnimation/SpeedBuggy'', ''{{Jabberjaw}}'', ''TheFunkyPhantom'' and ''CaptainCavemanAndTheTeenAngels''.
** Episode 25 reveals that [[JonnyQuest Quest Laboratories]] is a subsidiary of Destroido.

** {{Justified}}: [[JohnnyQuest Dr. Quest]] [[AWizardDidIt did it]]. No, really - she stole tech from Quest Labs.

** This is possibly the case with the [[JohnnyQuest Quest Team]], who were first seen [[spoiler: in the Obliteratrix's confession flashback]]. Season 2 was announced as having them in an episode.
