 Hi everyone!
With all the discussion lately following Curse of the 13th Ghost about what's canon and what's not, SDF and I have been working on a project about what could be considered canon. In our definition, canon means that there are no continuity errors with other things in the Scooby-Doo franchise that would prevent it from being in the main continuity. Anything that is not canon would be discontinuous with another incarnation, or it somehow contradicts another Scooby-Doo episode, special, or film. The following is the canon we came up with. Some non-canon movies fit together nicely with others, such as the LEGO or live action films, and have been placed in a canon together. All incarnations under the "separate canons" category are all in their own, individual canons and do not fit together with anything else in the franchise. Some notes are provided where our placement might be a bit confusing. However, if there's anything you feel should be placed elsewhere, please let us know in the comments and we'll be happy to explain our reasoning as to why we chose to place it there. Main Canon A Pup Named Scooby-Doo Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! The New Scooby-Doo Movies "Bat-Mite Presents: Batman's Strangest Cases!" The Scooby-Doo Show "Bravo Dooby-Doo" Scooby-Doo! and the Monster of Mexico Scooby-Doo! Spooky Games Scooby-Doo! Haunted Holidays Scooby-Doo! and the Spooky Scarecrow Scooby-Doo!

It was said that mystery incorparated takes place right before where are you and curse of the 13th ghost takes place a couple months after the 13 ghosts of scooby doo 3/25/2019 01:00:51 pm
SDF and I decided that there are too many continuity errors (i.e. the rebooting universe at the end of SDMI, the numerous inconsistencies between the original 13 Ghosts show and the film) to include it in the main canon of the franchise.

I am pretty sure samurai sword and what's new would be right before loch ness monster because they all have the what's new scooby doo art 3/30/2019 08:25:53 am
I wish we could do that. Our reasoning for placing WNSD after was in part because of the Hex Girls being in "The Vampire Strikes Back." Witch's Ghost and Legend of the Vampire had to be before WNSD because that's how the gang met the Hex Girls. Additionally, the gang goes to Australia in "Reef Grief," but in Big Top Scooby-Doo, Shaggy comments he had never been to Australia and didn't even know what a kangaroo looked like. Samurai Sword was placed after everything else because real monsters are featured, but Velma doesn't seem overly skeptical (whereas she does in many of the other DTVs).

Personally I believe Scoobynatural to be part of Scooby-Doo canon, and to finally solve the biggest question in Scooby history: Should real monsters exist? 5/2/2019 08:13:44 am
This is a really interesting idea, Timothy! Thanks for sharing! Leave a Reply. |
