So when did Shaggy and Velma become an item?

Im so behind the times...

I just noticed this new Scooby doo show where Shag and Vel sorta have the hots for one another. I kinda think its kinda neat that the two are benefiting from each others attention. It seems that some people dont like it, what a bunch of killjoys.


Eh...I felt like posting something,...there it is.

lol

Shaggy and Velma came out of the blue in Mysteries Incorporated. I find it amusing especially since Velma's sister had the hots for Shaggy in Abracadabra-Doo and he in turn was showing feelings for her. Then POOF months later he's dating Velma.

Unfortunatly once Scooby (who for some strange reason is going to school with them) finds out about their relationship he gets jelous and Velma gets pissy and makes Shaggy choose between her and Scooby. Uh Shaggy chose the dog... "Im not ready for a relationship!"....

Then in the live action film Curse of the Lake Monster (which if you wanna see the Punk Frogs in live action format. See this. Seriously 4 frogs mutated thru magic. *lol*) the Shaggy/Velma thing is dealt with in live action format. This time with them actually kissing then realizing a romantic relationship would be a mistake as they didn't feel a spark....

All this happening in 2010! Yeesh!

But I love Mystery's Incorporated. There's an actual ongoing storyline, and it's connected to the original series (they mention various baddies they caught and there's a museum). The only difference is they're in a new town (Crystal Cove) and they *gasps* actually go to school!

One of the best eps is when Cthuhlu goes after Harlan Ellison (who teaches at a local college where H.P Lovecraft is a rival professor)

So much drama in the Mystery Machine.... oy....

I always liked the Shaggy/Daphne pairing in The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo, just because nobody ever thought it would happen.

I dont mind them retconning this genre so much, hey I do like change and fresh ideas...when its done right. But pick an idea and go with it.
Its almost like the writers are retracing their steps in order not to offend anyone.
I watched parts of one eppisode of Mystery inc on youtube, and I liked it. Always liked Scoob since I was a kid,always will.
Eh I guess its just defensiveness when they mess with something from your childhood.

Some things are better left as implications. Although it would be hilarious to have the gang do an intervention on SHaggy.

This. A million times this. The pairing had it's origins in the previous New Scooby-Doo Mysteries series, but the 13 ghosts series is what clinched it. Daphne always had a closer rapport with Scooby too, as evident in A Pup..

MI is a great show, it finally does something with the
characters and gives them much needed dimension, and isnt afraid to have a bum ending now and then

I really like the series alot I've enjoyed almost all the plot lines and development of the characters. I like Velma's storyline but at the same time I feel the writers have down played her briliant thinking just a tad.
