Following HBO Max removing nearly all Scooby content (Scoob! and Trick or Treat are still hanging on, for some reason), there has been nowhere to stream the majority of series from our favorite cartoon canine. The only way to watch most Scooby content this past year has been through physical media or digital download.
CordCutters finally gave us some great news on this yesterday! At some point in the near future, Tubi will be adding nearly all Scooby-Doo series to their platform, along with a number of other Cartoon Network shows. Tubi announced they will begin adding more cartoons beginning March 1, but did not give a specific date for when the Scooby shows will be added. However, they've shared all of these shows will be added at some point:
This just leaves Laff-A-Lympics and Guess Who as not being available on streaming. Where Are You, The Scooby-Doo Show, and What's New have already been streaming on there for a while. Currently, it's unknown whether "Wednesday Is Missing" will be streaming alongside the rest of its series, since it was available on HBO Max before their Scooby library was purged. I'm so happy to see most Scooby shows will be streaming again. In the age of streaming, it was ridiculous imo that Scooby was almost completely unavailable to watch anywhere. I hope the Scooby content remains up through this upcoming merger!

The official Scooby-Doo Instagram announced that the complete series of Pup is now available on digital! Earlier last year, A Pup Named Scooby-Doo season 3 was removed from all digital download sites. Seasons 1 and 2 have still been available throughout the past year, but season 3 has not been watchable anywhere online for the past year. Season 3, along with the rest of the series, has now been remastered and available for digital download once again on Amazon, Fandango and YouTube. It is also available on Apple TV, but for some reason is not remastered on that service.
The Oodie, which is a sleepwear company, announced on Tuesday they are releasing some officially licensed Scooby-Doo pajamas and blankets. Four new products have announced, although since they are considered designer products, they're a bit more on the pricey side. The new collection includes Sherpa blanket ($95), a sleep tee ($85), one-piece pajama set ($119), and dog pajamas ($55). All products are now available at the following links! Thanks to Mr. Neither for the info!
I've always had the biggest soft spot for Scooby episodes involving Universal Monsters. This isn't news I would have expected, but coming this spring, Universal Fan Fest will be doing a really cool mash-up between the two! On select nights between April 23 and May 16, 2026, Universal Fan Fest will be hosting an experience they call “Scooby-Doo Meets the Universal Monsters: Mystery on the Backlot.” The experience will pay homage to both Scooby-Doo and the classic Universal Monsters we've seen featured as villains so many times throughout the franchise. Tickets start at $74.
Here's the official press release from Attractions Magazine: This all-new, immersive walk-through adventure is designed to give guests the sensation of stepping into a live-action mystery with the Scooby-Doo gang and the Universal Monsters. Guests will travel to the destination via Studio Tour tram, where they have a chance to walk along a movie studio backlot with Scooby-Doo himself and his pals Fred, Daphne, Velma, and Shaggy. The exciting escapade will challenge them to solve a mystery involving the most legendary Universal Monsters in cinematic history, including Frankenstein, Dracula, Bride of Frankenstein, and Wolf Man, as they navigate portions of Universal’s world-famous outdoor film sets, from the cobblestone streets of Little Europe to the iconic Court of Miracles, the original filming locations for historic Universal horror films “Frankenstein” (1931) and “The Wolf Man” (1941). Thanks Mystery5 for sharing about this neat event! It appears we're starting off the year strong! After getting news on two Scooby series earlier in the week, we also have our first new merch announcement of the year. Entertainment Earth has added a listing for some brand new minifigures from Fisher Price. The figures are miniature versions of each gang member. This is a limited edition set of 2 3/4 inch tall figures. The collection is a part of Fisher Price's Little People collectible line. The figures will be released in February. Pre-orders for the figures are now open on Entertainment Earth's site at the price of $34.99 plus shipping and tax.

Last November, it was announced at an event in Brazil that we'd be getting a series called Scooby-Doo! Gokko. Cartoon Brew has shared some exciting new details about the show direct from Warner Brothers! Scooby-Doo! Gokko will be a series of animated shorts that feature simple storytelling. No designs have been released yet (note that the designs ComicBook.com shared the other day has been confirmed as fan art from Twitter, originally posted by TVLaint). However, Cartoon Brew confirms that the designs will be "Chibi style animation." The designs and project as a whole will be similar to Tom & Jerry Gokko, which premiered last year. After two years of radio silence, we also finally have another update on Go-Go Mystery Machine! Many fans were speculating that Scooby-Doo! Gokko was a retitled or retooled version of Go-Go Mystery Machine. The writer of the Cartoon Brew article reached out to Warner Brothers about this. A representative confirmed they are two different projects. Go-Go Mystery Machine is still in development, and an announcement confirming additional details about the series is reportedly coming soon. Matthew Lillard also confirmed in an interview that he just finished a Scooby-Doo pilot. It's currently unclear if this is for Go-Go Mystery Machine or Scooby-Doo! Gokko, (or another show entirely, but I assume that's unlikely). Thanks so much to Hippyboy86 for sharing this article! Merry Christmas! Tony Cervone gave Scooby fans a surprise holiday gift today that no one was expecting. On Instagram, Tony shared that a song from Scoob! Holiday Haunt was secretly released years ago. Even though the film was written off, The Linda Lindas decided to release the song they'd written for the film separately. The song, "Groovy Xmas," can be listened to on Spotify.
Quite a bit has happened with the WB-Netflix merger these past couple of weeks! I wasn't sure when to report on it, since it appeared things would be in flux for a while and I didn't want to get too into political stuff. With continuing updates regularly, it seems like enough has happened that it's worth recapping it!
After WB and Netflix announced their merger on December 5, Paramount attempted to submit a hostile takeover bid, even going to the White House to claim Netflix's bid was problematic. Warner Brothers put out a statement this week saying that Paramount's bid represented a significant risk for shareholders. They confirmed that they would be going with Netflix's bid, due to feeling Paramount continually ignored key concerns that WB communicated to them. Warner Brothers was also open in expressing that Paramount's hostile takeover bid had a "litigious posture" to it. Although the Netflix-WB bid seems like it's moving ahead now, Paramount may still choose to challenge the merger legally. The merger still has to be approved by the government before it can be finalized, so the merger isn't 100% official. The Hollywood Reporter also mentions it's possible that Paramount may choose to keep submitting bids to stop the merger. Thanks to Becker for sharing this news! In 2002, Warner Brothers Movie World in Australia designed the Scooby-Doo! Spooky Coaster, a roller coaster based off of the first Scooby-Doo live-action film. The Spooky Coaster is one of WB Movie World's most popular attractions.
The roller coaster has been a staple at WB Movie World since the live-action film first came out. It originally opened on June 17, 2002, three days after the first live-action film. The Spooky Coaster remained open for 16 years, but shut down briefly in 2018 for a minor refurbishment. The updated version of the roller coaster was coined Scooby-Doo! Spooky Coaster: The Next Generation. In 2023, the roller coaster shut down for its first major refurbishment. The updates included an updated design, a new control system, redesigning the original 14 cars and adding two to make 16, raising entrance gates, and other mechanical and structural updates to optimize performance. Nearly three years later, the Scooby-Doo Spooky Coaster is now opening again, according to AULeisure! Beginning today, Aussie Scooby fans and those traveling to the park can once again experience the ride, just in time for summer starting in Australia. You can check out a detailed account of the refurbishments they did on this ThemeParksAU article. I never usually post about birthdays on here, but I wanted to be sure to post about a huge one that's happening today! And no, I'm not talking about Taylor Swift (although happy birthday to her as well lol)...today, Dick Van Dyke turns 100 years old! He appeared in The New Scooby-Doo Movies series finale "The Haunted Carnival." Besides Scooby, he was best known for hosting The Dick Van Dyke Show, as well as roles on Bye-Bye Birdie, Mary Poppins, Diagnosis: Murder, and many others!
He is the oldest living guest star in the Scooby-Doo franchise, and one of the oldest living celebrities in the world. It's incredible that he's lived such a long and prosperous life! Dick is also one of only four remaining guest stars from The New Scooby-Doo Movies that are still alive. The others are Sandy Duncan, Cher, and Geese from The Harlem Globetrotters. |
