Apparently everyone hates "Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?"
And I can agree with them. I hated the show when I was a little kid too because of how predictable it was, but then I grew up and decided to watch better shows.
Yet, even after it fell out of importance days ago, the "Scooby Dooniverse" apparently is still in full force and the Doofans are still angry about there being no real ghosts or monsters in the show, except on Movie/Episode Specials that didn't pertain to it. Weird.

Okay, admittedly I do think the franchise has overstayed its welcome and really needs to be put out to pasture, but the original series from the 1960s was great fun, good atmosphere and could actually be quite hilarious at times.
...somehow.
It's like the graphics in video games thing--a game can be good even if it has piss-poor graphics.
Like video games, actually. Graphics are important in those too.
But especially in animation, since the graphics are like, the defining feature of them, as opposed to other media (whereas for games, the interactivity and such is what sets them apart from other media).
Ninja'd I guess.
Mainly because, it winds up creating a unique visual aesthetic that works really well for what kind of program it is (a comedy with horror/mystery trappings). It doesn't throw off the timing of the gags--in fact it helps them. It doesn't prevent them from telling genuinely interesting stories--there are still quite a few (like the one about the Bermuda Triangle). It simply doesn't hurt the show in any way at all. It's simply saying its a problem because its not "good" animation... which, what the hell is "good" animation anyway? Like Disney shorts? Those are, again, a unique aesthetic that work for the kind of program they are, but wouldn't have done so well in this case.
DAMN YOU VORP-wait, what's Lion Hunters? Death Gaze?
Gee, I keep forgetting I killed the creators of those shows when I travelled back in time to prevent them from ever making those revolutionary cartoons.
Then came Death Gaze, which was going to be one of the most popular edgy series to ever be implemented. It was about this teenager in a high school who gains the ability to hypnotize his fellow students into doing whatever he wants, and he essentially manipulates his entire class to do his bidding, go out with him and kill themselves. Eventually a blind girl finds out about his power and vows to stop him. Unfortunately it was too mature for it's time and allowed the Moral Guardians to have un-fucking-believable control over the world of animation, to the point it even stretched over the internet. I went back and killed the series creator and stapled the timeline to what we have now.
And that is why we are in the Animation Age Ghetto, and why we will never have Lion Hunters or Death Gaze.
Just for like a day.
As far as you'll know.
You're using Dora and Blue's Clues and you're dissing Scooby?
But how can you be Moe Dantes if I'm Moe Dantes?
Your predaccessor.
