And perhaps most importantly, Joyce Reynolds is no longer a precocious 13-year-old but an adult psychic who claims she can communicate with the dead. (She’s also played by Michelle Yeoh.)

Although it does look as though she was talking to the floor, it may have been that the animators wanted to depict Velma looking down on Shaggy and Scooby, as she would have been higher up than they were, what with her being seated in the Mystery Machine, and them sitting in a crumpled heap on the ground.

In 1979, Joseph Barbera and Mark Evanier developed Scrappy-Doo, Scooby’s nephew, to prevent ABC from canceling the series. Sixteen episodes of Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo aired during the 1979-1980 season, but ABC’s Standards and Practices felt Scrappy was not a positive influence on kids. Evanier wrote about the experience on his blog: “Shortly after the last of many recordings of 'Mark of the Scarab' (that first script), it dawned on ABC Broadcast Standards that maybe Scrappy was a bad role model for the kiddos.
