I wouldn't mind the race swaps, as long as there's a decent storyline. Sadly there isn't. After 8 episodes it seems the whole point of this series is to belittle, as much as possible, the original.

What made the original so good (or bad in some ways) was the fact there was a mystery to solve, one which had red herrings and different possible solutions. Yes, it was played for laughs and aimed at a younger audience but that didn't detract from the mystery (too much). Of course, this balance between silliness and mystery completely broke once Scrappy-Doo was introduced and it went all down hill from there.

Given that this is, from the start, aimed at a mature audience makes the failure of this show even more tragic. Can you imagine what a correctly balanced mature comedic Scooby-Doo series could be like? A decent mystery, adult yet fun relationships between the main caricatures, scary horror filled sequences and above all a story of 5 "friends" looking to right the wrongs of bad people. The movies failed, this series has failed; it's depressing that a fantastic childhood memory has been taken this low and completely shat on.

1st & 2nd seasons were wonderful! 3rd season went completely woke, but luckily the 4th season has pulled back from the woke based storylines and are now similar to seasons 1 & 2 and much much better for it!
