This was another great episode! I enjoyed Tara as a guest star and the wintery setting of this episode was fun. It was really interesting how they had Simone appear again! For the fifth time in this series! The writers must really like her haha.
It was an interesting choice on the animators' part to just reuse the Snow Ghost design completely for the villain, but I didn't mind it. It also seemed like the old woman's Snow Devil legend may have been a reimagining of Fu Lan Chi's story from the original "That's Snow Ghost" episode. That reference to Flim Flam and 13 Ghosts was awesome! I was shocked they chose to reference it two episodes in a row! My only gripe with the episode is that it felt a bit too much time was spent having the Snow Devil chase after the skates. The trap started at the 14 minute mark and lasted almost 5 minutes of just the villain chasing the gang for those skates. This ranks as #18/34, so a pretty average episode but overall an enjoyable one to watch. Star-Studded Scoreboard: 1. I Put a Hex on You! 2. The Last Inmate! 3.

I don't think I have anything else to add. It was a pretty average episode and it made me think of BCSD with the redone classics. It ranks in the middle for me. The biggest positive was Tara, she seemed really into the role.

Y'know what... that's actually a great idea! And there's so much to choose, like Mystery Mayhem alone could take up a whole poll for example.

I like that idea! I've actually got the polls planned for the rest of the year (many of them being the movies by era idea that you suggested earlier), but I'll definitely try to slip this one in! I'll admit I'm not as familiar with the Scooby video games villains, so you'd have to send me a list so I don't miss any!

Wow, Flim Flam reference? How did 13 Ghosts get into the conversation so much in this show lately? Lol. I can't remember if they've referenced Scrappy yet, it would be an awesome trick if an episode actually said "Guest Starring Scrappy-Doo" lmao.

Yep, they did reference Scrappy! Christian Slater said "And I don't mean Scrappy" in his song in "The High School Wolfman's Musical Lament!"

Oh yeah, forgot about that. Kind of a jab, but not fully? It was weird.

Yeah, it was just a super vague reference here too. Someone says Flim Flam and Shaggy's like "oh yeah, he helped us catch 13 ghosts" and that's the end of the reference.

This episode was pretty interesting. Tara was really into her role. The snow devil design a call back to the snow ghost. The figure skating scene where they caught the snow devil was pretty cool and funny.

19/34 for me. It's a respectable episode and I couldn't quite work just who it was or what they were up to although wasn't a big fan of the persistent commentary. An enjoyable watch, but nothing overly special or standout.

P.S. Earns an extra place for Simmone alone.

The persistent commentary got a tad annoying after a while. You must be a Simone fan?

Pretty good episode. I had some fun with it but there is a few issues. One was the pacing it wasn’t the best also what was with that “it’s a water grab” joke it wasn’t funny. But they introduced Simone again so honestly I’m happy with that

I didn't like that joke either, it was kinda dumb.
