I loved this when i was a kid and love it today. I wish Shaggy would always wear red shirt and blue pants.
Seriously, compared to his role as Egghead in the Adam West Batman series and what he would later describe as his favorite role as Ratigan in the Great Mouse Detective, Vincent Price doesn't sound like he's trying.This show has an equal amount of good and bad.
I've just discovered this on Virgin. (TV on Demand, Boomerang) It has my favourite pup, Scrappy, who still worships his Uncle Scoob, but has learned the art of running away.
Vincent Price is a legendary voice, and I think he does the best performance of all characters in this rendition of our beloved Scooby-Doo. But that is also its weakness.
Honestly, the 13 Ghosts is one of the better Scooby Doo shows, and is a high 7. I really love the establishment of an overarching story arc, which allows characters to actually develop and for a grander sense of uncertainty and large scale to unfold.
I at first never really cared for the whole scooby doo thing over the years. But out of nowhere this show arrived.
The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo is an interesting series, as it changes up the formula of the series to have real ghosts (which would be followed by three TV movies that would follow the formula). The series sees Scooby, alongside Daphne, Scooby, Scrappy, and new characters Flim Flam and Vincent Van Ghoul capture the 13 most powerful ghosts that have been released from the Chest of Demons due to Scooby opening it.
I remember seeing this show when it was in reruns on USA in the 90s. I was way too young to remember the original run, which lasted only one season and was cancelled in 1986 before a younger scooby doo came out in 1988.
This show ruined Scooby. I saw the beginning of an episode one night on Cartoon Network, and after the first ten minutes I turned the TV off.
