 Davy Jones is the only guest star to have his name spelled incorrectly on the episode title card (the card reads "Davey Jones" when it should say Davy Jones).
Bonus: Davy was also the only person involved with Scooby, not just in this series, but in the entire Scooby-Doo franchise to pass away during a "leap day (February 29)." (Today marks the first February 29th since his passing in 2012, which is why I also why I chose this fact for today).

 The two Smash Mouth songs featured in What's New, Scooby-Doo? "Gentlemen, Start Your Monsters" and "Reef Grief" were not made for the series (unlike many of the other chase songs). They were both on Smash Mouth's most recent album at the time "Get the Picture?" which featured both "Hot" and "New Planet" on it. Neither were ever released as singles off of the album, however, "Hot" was featured on "Hot Wheels World Race," a television show made to promote Hot Wheels. Both songs were written by Paul DeLisle (who has no relationship with Grey DeLisle, the voice of Daphne).
 It's been nearly 15 years, but Scrappy fans will finally get to see the return of Scrappy-Doo in the upcoming comic series Scooby Apocalypse. Not much is known currently about Scrappy's role in the series or whether he will be a hero or a villain like he was in the 2002 live-action movie, but stay tuned for more developments on this in the upcoming weeks before the release.
 Funko has officially announced a line of Scooby Pop Vinyls and Dorbz at the Toy Fair, which was last weekend.
