Be Cool, Scooby-Doo! (2015–2018)
8/10
Pretty good actually

Call me a pessimist, but I was skeptical with this show at first. After seeing the animation style, I thought it would be another crap remake that they just pumped out of the factory. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I actually enjoy this more than almost any other Scooby Doo remakes. First I love what they've done with Daphne. In lots of Scooby Doo shows, she and Fred have the most bland personalities. She goes from prissy, rich, and a fashionista, to a quirky down-to-earth character that's just trying to find her passion in life... By trying every hobby on earth, and I love that new take on her. Second, even though the humor can be corny at times (It is a kid show after all) there are still plenty of moments that get a genuine snicker out of me. It has it's moments. Third, they introduce multiple suspicious characters at the beginning of the episodes, leaving you to get involved and see if you can guess which one is behind the mask. I think that's a cool idea to have kids honing their deduction skills, and have them feeling like an actual member of the a Mystery inc. gang.

The only things I don't care for are the animation style (I'm sorry but Scooby looks like he was born with a weird birth defect in this) and that Shaggy/Scooby/Velma have some moments where they just annoy the hell out of me.

That being said, it's still a very decent show and anyone who grew up loving Scooby Doo should give this a chance. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
