Why? Just why? WHY DO WE HAVE TO BUTCHER THE DESIGNS TO CLASSIC ANIMATED CHARACTERS!?
Some people complain that Warner has overused Scooby-Doo much like how Nickelodeon has overused SpongeBob Squarepants. The only difference: I hate SBSP, and it's nothing more than one continuous series; while Scooby-Doo is made up of multiple different series spin-offs (e.g., the Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo Show, A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, What's New Scooby-Doo). To Warner Bros.' credit, it's not one long "soap opera" (cringe).
Now that I got it off my chest, I NEVER thought that, while the live-action Scooby-Doo films are treasonous on so many levels, that Warner would ever ruin an original cartoon series. Come the year 2015 with Be Cool, Scooby-Doo! however, I should have known better than that--especially after watching other classic characters like Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse get butchered on the visual aspect. And the characters themselves personality-wise are no better. And on a side note, the actress voicing Velma Dinkley does not deliver the same performance as the others before her.
Instead of being called Be Coo, Scooby-Doo!, it should simply be called "Scooby-DON'T"! In other words, DON'T watch it--you'll be doing your eyes and ears a favor.
