Thank you to Shadowscooby for coming up with this poll idea! There are quite a few episodes that have extremely brief beach scenes (i.e. "Scooby's Night with a Frozen Fright" and "There's a Demon Shark in the Foggy Dark"). However, to try to keep the number of options in this poll manageable, I kept it to episodes that had a beach as the main setting. If for some reason there's any that I missed that you feel should be included, please feel free to let me know in the comments!
With last week's results, we had 29 different options! Since the paragraph would be massive if I had a sentence for each option ("in twenty-second place we have..." lol), I'm just going to break down last week's results for favorite sorcery in list format. What is your favorite episode featuring a sorcerer as a villain? Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost - 20 Scared a Lot in Camelot - 9 Which Witch is Which? - 8 To Switch a Witch - 4 The Warlock of Wimbledon - 4 Scooby-Doo!

It's between the first 3 options. Some of the others like Scooby Dude and Aloha are quite good too, but those 3 are great and really close. I'll ultimately go with A Clue for Scooby-Doo, one of the most iconic episodes and monsters. The first half of Creepy Heap would win it, but the second half isn't as strong, thus dropping below A Clue and Shark Island.

I actually hadn't read your comment yet when I made my rankings, but I'm so glad to see somebody agrees about "The Creepy Heap of the Deep" having a dropoff in quality. It's weird and kind of a shame, because it would have been the darkest episode of that season if the quality would have stayed consistent IMO. I don't feel the quality dropoff made the second half bad, it's just not quite as strong and felt like it lost some momentum.

Those top 2 were the same for me, very hard to choose, but I went with A Clue. Had Creepy Heap's quality stayed the same in the second one as it was in the first half, it would've won.

I genuinely feel like A Clue and Shark Island could swap any given day, that is how close they are. I actually do like all of Creepy Heap even if I agree that the first half is better, but even then, it would be hard for it to beat those two for me 8/28/2022 10:42:42 am
Goblin King rises to the top of the WNSD era for me for the same reason that you put in your rankings for "Reef Grief," it's just so zany and weird that it's a ton of fun haha. I will say though that my reaction to my first watch of Goblin King was "what the heck did I just watch?", but it really grew on me in my second watch and i've loved it ever sense. Legend of the Vampire, Where's My Mummy, Monster of Mexico, and Aloha are my other favorite WNSD movies (in that order).

To make it clear, I still enjoy Creepy Heap's second half, I don't dislike it, but it's my least favorite half of an episode from the second season of TSDS. Which makes the quality drop even more noticeable when the first half is one of the best of that season, I adore that part.

One thing we all seem to agree on is that Samurai Sword is a weak point in this era. It's a decent film, but doesn't match the usual quality. 8/29/2022 08:38:26 am
It's a shame since Samurai Sword was Casey Kasem's last time ever voicing Shaggy, but yeah, the film definitely is of lesser quality than the previous films. 8/28/2022 10:38:02 am

I haven't mentioned Some Fred Time at all in my comments, just wanna say that I don't find it a modern Scooby classic personally. It's possibly in my top 5 BCSD, but I don't guarantee that. In Space is the BCSD episode that stands out to me as the best one. 8/28/2022 12:57:27 pm

@Wildwind: I definitely agree with you 1000%. Very irresponsible to dismiss the virus like that, and it is VERY immature. The second part reminds me of Damon Albarn from Blur and the Gorillaz, as well as the Gallaghers from Oasis who are all very rude to other artists on Twitter. Even then, they at least have made some great music (even if I can’t stand Wonderwall lol). Dissing Folklore (a truly excellent album, Taylor’s best) from the band who is known for being a meme and Shrek is laughable. Smash Mouth wishes they could make an album that good

@Matt I completely agree Folklore is one of Taylor's best albums (although Red (Taylor's Version) is probably my all-time favorite from her), Smash Mouth could never make an album that good lol. I didn't know Damon Albarn or Gallaghers make fun of people on Twitter like that, that's unfortunate to hear. 8/28/2022 07:37:36 pm
Actually, I can just give my full list of favorite BCSD episodes:
Becker
8/29/2022 03:02:36 am
@Wildwind, I'm surprised American Goth is in the top 20, that's one of the very few BCSD episodes I would put in Bad Tier. I really don't enjoy that episode. I don't like the main plot regarding Shaggy and Amelia at all, nor do I like Amelia in general, very one note to me. The setting and theme has no appeal, Lord Morlack is irritating af, and the culprit is kind of a nothing character. The Plant Monster is just weird, the design seems kinda off – and going along with that – Daphne trying to "understand" the monster as her daphneism of the day falls straight up flat, doesn't work at all. Once every few episodes in this series, the daphneism of the day is just way too stupid/annoying/insane for me and detracts from the episode more than anything, this is one of those times. This episode ends up dull by the end. To be honest, the most memorable part of American Goth is that Velma says nothing in the second half of the episode (or even more than half) except like one short sentence right before the third act. She gets jack shit for lines as if the writer forgot she existed lmao, it's ironically funny (funnier than anything else in the episode...). It's especially awkward when the gang are doing their thing at the end with explaining the villain's plan, during which usually Velma is the one talking the most, but this time she stays completely silent and all the others fill that void and you can't help but notice the strangeness in the air regarding it. 8/29/2022 08:47:54 am
I believe I can say this since JCB has said it publicly a number of times, but I think part of my soft spot for that episode is that Amelia is based off of a real person, and I know her, so I think that elevated the episode a bit for me. JCB had mentioned (I think on ScoobyAddicts) that Amelia was supposed to be more three-dimensional rather than just straight-up spooky. Lord Morlack definitely was irritating, though. I don't really remember the Daphneism enough to comment on it; it's been a few years since I've seen the episode. I definitely didn't remember that Velma says one line in the whole second half, wow haha. I genuinely don't remember her staying silent the entire reveal scene. I guess either JCB forgot she existed or all her lines got edited out haha. I remember this was one of those ones JCB said got edited heavily after he left.
Becker
8/29/2022 09:20:33 am
Well, however she was supposed to be, Amelia is definitely not three-dimensional in the end product. I could not buy anything between her and Shaggy at any single point, they have zero chemistry. Makes you only wonder how tf they were together in the past. 8/29/2022 04:47:24 pm
Here's the link to the post of JCB's on ScoobyAddicts I was talking about: https://scoobyaddicts.proboards.com/post/48172/thread
Becker
8/29/2022 05:59:30 pm
I know that Lord Morlack was supposed to be a Trent Reznor parody, and then somehow turned into a weirdo kid who starts whining and bitching and... why are those people even listening to that idiotic child in the first place? There's no logic to the story. 8/29/2022 10:03:19 pm
The goth leader being a weird whining guy makes no sense at all. I don't know what whoever put that in there was thinking, but it didn't work. Amelia didn't bother me much from what I can remember, but I agree they made her too much of a stereotype.
Becker
8/30/2022 03:25:03 am
I feel like the Lord Morlack changes specifically were down to the director more than anything else. JCB said his dialogue didn't really change, so that couldn't have been Ludy's fault. Nor do I think it was the execs' fault, cuz they would've messed with it in more different ways and on more fronts that influence or would have a domino effect on some other elements in production. I feel like Andy Thom, the director, saw the character's onscreen representation differently from what the script was trying to convey and so made the call to change his appearance himself to fit his vision better. That's just the case of Morlack though. 8/30/2022 10:33:36 am
All very good points, and I think you're right. I was thinking it was maybe possible it could have been execs, since I know they basically took away the story editor role from JCB with those two shorts and one of the execs took it over.
Becker
8/30/2022 10:54:50 am
I don't think the story editor role was taken by anyone. What I know is that Jeff Mednikow, one of the Be Cool directors, made those two shorts on his own without JCB, he wrote and directed them. 8/30/2022 01:45:15 pm
Yep, Jeff is who I was talking about. I had just meant that Jeff took on the story editor and writer role without JCB's involvement, so I think we're saying the same thing, I just probably didn't word it as well as I could have.
Becker
8/30/2022 02:12:28 pm
I think I was more focused on the exec part of the comment with my explanantion, cuz Jeff wasn't an exec in the real sense, he was a director and then during the second season also promoted to producer (the regular type). So kind of a one man machine for those 2 shorts since he also became the writer for them (the only things he wrote). Valiant effort trying all three main roles at the same time with that, credit where its due, even though the end product wasn't really that good (especially Pizza O'Possum's).
Becker
8/30/2022 02:20:56 pm
Explanation* 8/30/2022 03:55:38 pm
Ah okay, I see what you were saying. I didn't particularly like his writing for those two episodes, especially "Pizza O'Possum's," but it would definitely take a lot of effort balancing all those three positions at once.
Becker
8/30/2022 04:30:33 pm
While Daphne is deplorable in Pizza O'Possum's (she's kinda up and down the whole show a bit, but this episode takes the cake) and by association Velma and their whole plot is garbage too, I think that at the very least the other plot between Shaggy, Scooby and the toy is pretty nice and wholesome. Fred and the animatronic monster were decent too. But obviously the short length sucks and detracts from the mystery and throws off the pace. Half-Beard's Booty knew that and so made a novelty episode with no mystery basically, just a fun enough little experience with the gang and Captain Cutler, who finally got something to shine in after being just pure occasional gag material. 8/30/2022 09:15:31 pm
I like "Pizza O'Possum's" in the sense it gives us some sweet Shaggy moments. I agree though that Daphne was awful in this episode, as was Velma's video game addiction plotline. It felt like it was written by somebody who didn't understand Daphne, because although she's quirky and weird, she'd never be cruel to her friends like she was when she was taunting Velma to play video games. That didn't even make sense.

Agreed on Hassle in the Castle. "A Tiki Scare is No Fair" would be between "Revenge of the Man Crab" and "Reef Grief!" "A Creepy Tangle in the Bermuda Triangle" would be between "She Sees Sea Monsters at the Sea Shore" and Beach Beastie. LEGO Scooby-Doo: Blowout Beach Bash would be dead last for me. It's my second least favorite thing in the entire franchise (only beat out by "A Mystery Solving Gang Divided!").
Becker
8/29/2022 05:43:13 am
Oh wow the Funky Phantom ep of Guess Who is the absolute worst of the entire franchise? I knew you hated it (same), but I thought there'd be a lot more unwatchable crap. For me Curse of the 13th Ghost is straight up dumpster fire and takes the crown for biggest piece of crap Scooby-Doo has ever seen personally (surpassed Mystery Map over time). 8/29/2022 08:52:04 am
The arguing made it nearly unwatchable for me; it's so in-your-face that it nearly dominates the entire episode. Blowout Beach is second, Ghastly Goals is third just due to the general laziness of the animation and mystery. The plot felt extremely thin and underdeveloped to me. I would say Curse of the 13th Ghost and Return to Zombie Island are fourth and fifth. I didn't hate Mystery Map; in fact I thought it was an interesting follow-up to A Pup Named Scooby-Doo. I will admit I only saw it the once back on its release day in 2013 though. I didn't think it was great, but I don't find it unwatchable like the others. 8/30/2022 10:31:43 am
Just rereading my comment and noticed I completely forgot "Ransom of Scooby Chief," which would definitely be fourth.
Becker
8/30/2022 10:57:27 am
I'll be honest, I don't hate Ransom of Scooby Chief. It has no right to exist, but it's so bad it's good. It's a fun trainwreck, which is always better to watch than a frustrating trainwreck (looking at you 13th Ghost...).

Poor Ransom of Scooby Chief! Oh, well, it's my third favorite of that season.
Matt
8/30/2022 04:22:58 pm
I feel like my episodes I would choose for my least favorite of the franchise have to be episodes from series that I like otherwise. Sure, the Mystery Gang Divided was truly abysmal, but I don't even like Guess Who as a whole in general, so it is hard to care that much
Becker
8/30/2022 04:44:38 pm
The thing is though, I'd rather sit through a crap episode of a show I like (Ransom of Scooby Chief, Scooby of the Jungle, even fking Jaguaro) than a crap episode of a show I dislike (A Mystery Solving Gang Divided, most Scrappy shorts). Because if I don't even enjoy some of the best of ths latter show, then watching its bottom of the barrel is unbearable. I'd rather scrape the worst of a show I enjoy because there's gonna be at least some good elements carried over from the rest of the show to grasp on to. There's nothing to latch on to with a shit episode for the standards of a show you're not even a fan of, there's nothing that helps you get through it even on a superficial level. Basically, if Jaguaro was made in Guess Who's style and vibe while otherwise keeping the actual episode itself the same, I'd hate it even more than the TSDS version, cuz there's at least some charm and such in the latter. 8/30/2022 09:13:51 pm
It's funny, I actually thought about this more over the past couple days and wrote up a post about my least favorites to come sometime in the near future. They're in a different order than I listed here, but I looked at it more objectively at the worst episodes of the franchise period, regardless of whether I liked the series or not. Thinking about it, a couple of the Scrappy episodes rise above the rest as being truly awful. I guess I just think of it more as "really bad for the quality of the series," because if I were to pick my top 5 worst episodes in general, they'd probably all be Scrappy. "A Mystery Solving Gang Divided" falls into that category for me.
Matt
8/30/2022 10:22:15 pm
I think I might be changing my mind on this a little bit. I think I am sticking to where yeah, I could name most episodes of a series I don't like on a list, but it is the ones that REALLY stand out as being particularly awful that DO rise to the top of the list of the worst episodes. Scooby Dooby Guru is one of these episodes, and I forgot about it earlier, but it is one of the worst things to ever come out of the franchise 8/31/2022 10:38:43 am
Yeah, "Scooby Dooby Guru" is one of most awful episodes ever for me too. There have definitely been other episodes with some not so-great-representation, like "Jeepers, It's the Jaguaro!" and "Mystery Mask Mix-Up." I would go so far as to argue "Scooby Dooby Guru" is racist. Whereas the poor representation is a smaller aspect of those other episodes, this episode's whole premise is them being chased around by a museum Indian guard chasing them around the city riding an elephant. The voice of the guard also sounds like the most awful impression of an Indian person you could imagine. Sorry to be so negative, but yeah, this is truly the bottom of the barrel for the franchise for the entire plot just being a series of grossly misinformed stereotypes about Indian culture.
Matt
8/31/2022 11:04:17 am
Even if I were to look past the stereotypes as being a different time (which I am NOT in this case), the episode itself still sucks on top of that. Seriously, this episode is one of the prime examples of Shaggy, Scooby, and Scrappy deservedly getting themselves into trouble just by being general a-holes. Just awful in every single aspect 8/31/2022 04:40:57 pm
Absolutely agreed. Knocking over a priceless statue at the Taj Mahal and then running away is pretty awful.

Becker
8/29/2022 03:15:43 am
It does not exist, someone (likely a kid) messed around with the wikipedia article and obviously got taken down shortly after. There's zero inside information or source about such a thing, which is something we've gotten for pretty much every Scooby project in advance for years now. That in itself is already enough to confirm it's a hoax. If someone actually had inside info on the possibility of this film, this is not how they would show it, they would never choose to only hint at it through a quick wikipedia edit, which any troll can do, and nothing else. Trust me, I've seen a lot of crap edited on wikipedia along the years that got deleted and never happened, none of it is ever true. Even the idea of a TMNT/Scooby crossover itself makes no sense anyway (classic sign of a wikipedia troll). 8/29/2022 08:34:17 am
Agreed with Becker, and in addition, I took a look at the edit history, and if you go to the talk page of the person who added it, it shows they have a history of adding fake things because other users have warned them a bunch of times about making unconstructive edits. So yeah, it's definitely a hoax.

I really enjoyed this as a novelty episode. I liked how unique the Headless Skateboarder was as a villain. It was cool to meet Velma's Aunt Thelma. It was interesting how this episode was done in an after-school-special like way, but I would say it was done really well. I guessed Al as a culprit from the start, but I didn't think Sandy was involved. I also wasn't expecting there to be an agent undercover in this episode.

I believe that "Night of the Upsetting Shorts," also had a beach setting too mainly cause the episode itself takes place in Florida and all.

By the way the episode itself was good for the most part except I didn't like the Fred's Upsetting Shorts running gag.

I'd forgotten about that one having a beach setting, I can add that one now.

This was a fun episode with a great villain! I agree with you that the setting was beautiful. It was cool they worked in the graveyard of ships. The culprit's motivation was actually really sweet IMO. I felt bad for the gang too! It's a bummer they didn't get to use their timeshare.

The opening song of this movie might be my favorite of any opening song, tbh. Don Ho has a beautiful voice, and it's crazy that this was his last role ever before passing away. The Wiki Tiki was a cool villain, as were the tini-tikis. That bit with Auntie Mahina and the pie was funny haha. I wasn't surprised by the culprits either; it was pretty obvious.

I liked the Coral Creature as a villain and never would have expected it to be real.Yeah, that was sweet that the Coral Creature saved Scooby. I liked the sand castle competition plot. The sand zombies were some pretty crazy villains. The upside down surfing thing was really silly haha. I was really surprised about the culprit. Yeah, Scooby eating the sand was gross haha.

The Man-Crab was a super cool-looking villain with an amazing design. The references to Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm and Suzy Chan were cool. The plot about Velma forcing Shaggy to quit junk food was annoying. It was sad that Fred was so devastated about losing Daphne.

This was a huge improvement over Ghastly Goals. Aquazilla was a really cool villain (interesting name though haha). It was interesting that they carried over several details from SDMI, like Fred's house looking the same, the trap being the same as "Creeping Creatures," and Fred being trap obsessed. I thought it was really cool that Daphne's Uncle Sandy was voiced by Adam West. I'd forgotten about us hearing that Scooby's full name was "Scooby von Dooenheimer" lol.

I wasn't a huge fan of this movie. I didn't mind the Ghosts of Bonnie Bingo Bell and Captain Rudimore Bash as the villains. The mystery didn't feel very developed, and I felt the songs were quite annoying personally. I enjoyed Haunted Hollywood much better.

Yah, Haunted Hollywood is a 100% better than Blowout Beach Bash.

I loved this episode! The setting of the retirement home was definitely a very original setting for a Scooby-Doo episode. The opening scene was definitely funny, in fact, I'd say this is one of the funniest episodes of the series. It was cool how they split-up differently. I found the villain pretty easy to guess, although yeah, for once the motive was very sweet. The ending was amusing haha.

I didn't like this episode as much as most Be Cool episodes due to it feeling too short to develop a good plot, but it was somewhat decent. It was an interesting to have Captain Cutler return for an adventure. It was cool the island was modeled after Skull Island. I think Half-Beard's design was the best part of the episode. His design was creepy and I wish he could have been used in a full-length episode. The twist at the end with Cutler was a bit surprising.

I think I’m gonna go with Some Fred Time. I loved how they actually tried to solve a Mystery without Fred. They didn’t succeed at that, but they tried lol.

Speaking of (Some Fred Time) I really like the art design of Dorsal Foot it kinda reminds me of the demon shark from (The Scooby-Doo Show) only scarier. Whoo! 9/24/2022 08:51:26 am
Me too! "Some Fred Time" is my favorite episode from Be Cool, Scooby-Doo! Leave a Reply. |
