Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

"Well, gang, it looks like we're up to our armor plates in another mystery." Oddly enough, this line comes from the very first episode of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?, the part-mystery, part-haunted house animated series that premiered in 1969. The first five episodes are featured on Scooby-Doo's Original Mysteries, in which Freddy, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy, and of course the practical-joking Great Dane Scooby-Doo drive around the country in their lime-green van "The Mystery Machine" investigating haunted castles, ghost towns, and a host of alleged otherworldly beings. Ventriloquist, gymnast, and resident hippie Shaggy and fraidy-cat canine Scooby provide the comic relief between clues, and can usually be bribed into anything with a yummy Scooby snack (the ingredients of which remain the show's real mystery). Sure, the animation is flat, the music receptive, and the jokes not nearly as funny as the laugh track would have you think, but that's par for Saturday morning animation. If you grew up with Scooby and the gang, these original episodes are like a nostalgia train to Saturday morning yesteryear, yet after 30 years the shows have hardly aged (even beatnik Shaggy could pass for modern grunge). The DVD also features an abbreviated music video (not as good as Matthew Sweet's rendition of the theme song on Saturday Morning Cartoons) and a trivia quiz. The episodes: "What a Night for a Knight," "Hassle in the Castle," "A Clue for Scooby Doo," "Mine Your Own Business," and "Decoy from a Dognapper." --Sean Axmaker

5.0 out of 5 stars Great compilation, May 13, 2003
By Garrett Aja (North Las Vegas, NV) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Scooby-Doo is one of the great TV cartoon stars, and the show, while cartainly fairly flimsy in the plot department (although pretty strong compared some of the other H-B cartoons), is still as entertaining as ever.

This disc has the first five episodes in order (unlike most of the other discs, which are just random collections of episodes), which is a welcome change to the compilation discs and tapes. However, as always, the special features basically stink if you're above the age of like 8, and there still hasn't been any sort of series (or season) box set, so if you want the episodes in order, this is it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Scooby-Doo At Its Best, March 14, 2000
By M. B Evans "Fusionman" (Madison, Mississippi United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you grew up on Scooby-Doo like I did as a child in the 70's, then you will love this DVD. I own alot of Scooby videos, but when I surfed over to Amazon.com one night, and typed in Scooby-Doo in the DVD-video section and saw this DVD, I ordered it on the spot. Its about time they put the best cartoon that has ever graced Saturday morning tv on DVD format. If you love Scooby and the gang, and want the original classics(FIRST FIVE EPISODES) then, get this DVD, you will love it....
