Apparently today is the day MLP: Friendship is Magic premiered 14 years ago

Now I never watched the show before I ended up sitting down with my little cousin and doing so, but it's wild to me the longevity of the show, it transcended eras

When MLP: FIM premiered its contemporaries were Star Wars The Clone Wars, Young Justice, Transformers Prime, Regular Show, Adventure Time, Ben 10 Ultimate Alien, Avengers Eearth's Mightiest Heroes, Scooby-Doo Mystery Incorporated, Phineas and Ferb, Batman the Brave and the Bold, etc

And when it ended, it's contemporaries were Amphibia, Gen: Lock, Harley Quinn, Infinity Train, Rick and Morty, Rise of the TMNT, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, Star Wars Resistance, Transformers Cyberverse, Ducktales (2017), RWBY, Ninjago, The Amazing World of Gumball, Ben 10 (2016), etc

Not only that, but it also outlived a number of shows that released after it premiered, like Steven Universe, Ben 10 Omniverse, Voltron Legendary Defender, Gravity Falls, TMNT (2012), The Legend of Korra, Transformers Robots in Disguise (2015), Star Wars Rebels, etc some of which being successors/sequels to shows it was originally airing alongside (Star Wars The Clone Wars-Star Wars Rebels, Transformers Prime-Transformers RID2015, Ben 10 Ultimate Alien-Ben 10 Omniverse)

I was thinking about the Scooby Doo/Supernatural crossover.

Right, so we all know Velma's gay, that's the official, real, original Velma from the first show to the direct-to-DVD movies.

Now, let's assume ScoobyNatural, the Supernatural Series 13 episode where the Supernatural brothers, Sam and Dean, along with their fake John Constantine guy, Castiel (who apparently died and was brought back with no explanation just for the crossover) get put into Scooby Doo because of a ghost. This is the only episode of that show I have seen.

Anyway, let's assume they were put into real Scooby Doo, back in time somehow, instead of a fake ghost-made version of Scooby Doo like the in-universe rationalisation. The people making it wanted that to be the case. I agree.

So, let's assume the original episode still happened, then this time travel added them to the episode. It still works with the show, they time travel all the time in the comics, and despite differences to the original made by the ghost, Sam and Dean do make a point of making sure the Scooby gang are still as normal as can be for their future adventures.

Oh, during the episode there's even a subplot where one of the brothers, Dean, tries to get with Daphne. Except that doesn't work, of course. Because Fred. At the end of the episode, they do a twist, however. Velma kisses him as they leave. And if you're an expert at the subtle ways of heterosexual communications, Velma apparently likes him back? This was shown earlier in the episode too, from what I can tell.

Bit of a mad thought but why not do it? Dean does a remark, Velma apparently wants to keep in touch. However, one snaggle*, Velma is still gay. And I know what you're thinking. But mainline Velma is better than that. But if the ghost from Supernatural was affecting the original Scooby Gang, what if the ghost like temporarily degayed her to make Dean happy/put him off the scent and keep them mostly in-character? Or like made original Velma be heterosexual for that one episode? Ghostly comphet if you will. I don't know. Oh, fun fact, the Scooby Gang are all DC characters because of their Batman crossover in the New Scooby-Doo Movies, their second incarnation, making them too exist in every DC universe. Even New 52. I don't even want to know what happened to them there.

*(They may have fallen into the James Gunn Scooby Doo 2 Trap Zone with Velma but Shaggy being somewhat self-aware is consistent with the direct-to-DVD series, specifically the Batman: The Brave and The Bold crossover movie. Oh, speaking of that one, it makes sense that they existed in the show's universe the whole time but Bat-Mite just didn't want to mess with them.)

Next up for Warner Bros Animation, favorite character from the second wave of the shows they produced for Cartoon Network from 2008-13, exclusively producing for Cartoon Network at that time due to Kids WB ending in 2008 from increasing competition with kids' cable channels making Saturday morning blocks on broadcast networks obsolete at that point: Batman the Brave and the Bold, Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated, MAD (may need to do favorite sketch instead of favorite character for that one since it's a sketch show with various one offs), Young Justice, The Looney Tunes Show, ThunderCats 2011, Green Lantern the Animated Series, Teen Titans Go (aka the show that Cartoon Network really loved to air alongside Gumball from 2015-20), and Beware the Batman?

This is a goood block and i'm happy to say i've seen all of it.

Batman Brave and the Bold: Aquaman. John DiMaggio and the writers took silver age aquaman and made him intresting and fun, a bombastic kindly man who may be in his own little world, but genuinely loves his family, batman and being a hero. He became probably the most recurring hero for good reason as every episode with him is a treat. It's also thanks to him we got this

Why this isn't a full on spinoff I don't know.

The show itself is one of my favorite dc shows. I've reviewed this one a few times at this point and given how much Kev loves it too, I defintely will again. I love a good bit of silver age nonsense, and Brave and the Bold embraces that tone, while not just focusing on the silver age as the series embraces dc as a whole: Heroes like the jason rusch firestorm (mixed with ronnie raymond... literally), jamie reyes and ted kord blue beetles, guy gardner green lantern, and even big swings like kamandi or haunted tank got included. Every bit of dc's long history up to this point was touched on in some way and it's clear the writers loved every inch of this universe while still bringing something new to it. While ther'es plenty of great bat content as Deidrich Bader is easily one of the best batmen, Brave and the Bold is at it's core about celebrating the dc universe in intresting ways, and it was a shame to see it go.

Scooby Doo Mystery Incorpeated: Fred. It's fred again. This time because it's the best fred, our trap hyperfixatd awkward prince. Taking Fred's weirdness and ramping it up and yet making him a sympathetic wholly likeable kid living

Though Sheriff Stone is a close second. The show itself is an awesome reboot of scooby doo, nicely updating with horrifying monsters and a nicely goofy sense of humor, blending both sides of scooby that have always been there together perfectly while adding a compelling mystery and eventual elder god story into the mix. The show admitely did have a rough start as whlie all the comeplling stuff was there including the gang's parents actually being present and the gang's day to day lives being a part of it for a change, now settled in a home base of crystal cove (the second time the series left the team to one location and not the last), it got bogged down by a love triangle between velma, shaggy and scooby

Yeah look I don't thinkt hey INTENDED for it to come off that way, they intended for it to be a platonic love triangle.. but tha'ts not how it comes off especially when Velma keeps ranting about dog issues after everything falls apart, yet still comes off like a horribly abusive monster who tried to change shaggy and didn't understand that maybe his dog, HER FRIEND was also important.

The Fred and Daphne thing is also mildly grating but thankfully is more nuanced ( as Fred , being heavily autisim coded (I say this as someone with autisim myself), simply misses daphne's cues and their adorable later and their breakup, while mildly contrived, does make sense at least as does their ineveitble reconceliation.

While the show does start rough, no question it quickly sheds the relationship drama for good character work, some of the best monsters of the week franchise wise and a comeplling mystery. It's got it's rough edges but man is this show good. Plus it's got tia carrere and gary cole in major roles and Marche LaMarche doing his best vincent price as vincent van ghoul. You.. really can't beat it and it's still a high water mark for the series.

MAD: I dont' really have a faviorite sketch as I only mildly remember this one. It wasn't bad though and I liked it's style, doing diffrent kinds of animatoin ala the magazine itself, which I read as a tween and teen and loved.

Young Justice: Wally. I love his evolution from mild fuckboy with a heart of gold to responsible boyfriend and hope he one day returns from the speed force. The show itself is decent. While I like the less family feel of the team after season 1, I do like the idea of the team (their rough version of the titans) being a strike force against a shadowy cabal of villians, the twists and turns and like Brave and the Bold being a celebration of the dcu, being essentially Greg Weissman's version of an ultimate universe. I didn't watch most of the revivial seasons, only watching the first half of season 3 but they were decent though I do feel the time jumps hurt the series a bit: the first worked fairly well but each successive one means we get less time with the characters as naturally years on each time their going to be in some diffrent place int heir lives. It works well enough to not wreck the show. The myth arc also is a bit too slow. Still it's hard to deny young justice is awesomea nd deserves a comic to wrap it all up at some point.

The Looney Tunes Show: Daffy... that.. should be pretty obvious given one of my most used reaction images

Daffy in this series is truly unhinged and a nice combination of his screwball earlier self and his later deadpan attention whore egotist self: he has the need for attention, massive ego and bitterness, mixed with the lack of selfawarness and over the top antics for what i consider to be the perfect daffy, being able to both deliver great dialouge and unhinged insnatiy. The man drives around in a parade float and was a wizard. The series as a whole is great, but Daffy is the standout and one of the main reasons it's as funny as it was.

So yeah the series is great and was badly unerapprciated, hated for not being the usual screwball looney tunes and instead being a sitcom about a pansexual rabbit and his bi diaster live in husband he's in an open relationship with as he tries to keep the latter from burning their lives down. And.. it works. Bugs and Daffy are tweaked slightly to fit but they still feel like my boys: Bugs is less sarcastic and can be more passive sure, but his trickster antics, not reallysomething he can DO in subrbia, are traded in for a dry sarcasm, while I went into daffy already. THe result is comedy gold as everyone is remagined a bit to fit this new environment. The only one really changed is lola and while I do like the original , I like this more fleshed out version whose no less attractive, but fits in better. Granted the stalking bit dosen't work well but it's quickly dropped and only really cued up for We are in Love. It's still not GREAT but they do tone it down and recognzied maybe stalking isn't funny just because it's a woman on a man. Overall one of the best eras of looney tunes and it's sad they felt they had to walk it back.

Thundercats 2011: Not bad, don't remember it that well.

Green Lantern: The Animated Series: Aya: I have a soft spot for robots (or ai's in this case) learning to be more human. As for the show itself it's pretty good. Not the best thing i've seen and having the anti montior be big bad of season 2 just felt.. weird. While he is related to the green lanterns for his role in the sinsestro corps war he still feels a bit TOO big of a threat to just plop into one heroes show with no other heroes showing up. Still a solid show with good animation.

Teen Titans Go: Robin who orginally irtated me for being nothing like his teen titans counterpart.. then entertains me because he's such a dick. He also got a decent arc in the movie. The show itself.. is eh. I've watched it a few times. I originally hated it but that was more for the fact they orginally did not make it clear that no, this isn't the same continuity and then made pot shots at the old show because fans of something entirely didn't.. didn't like this. Versus brave and the bold who took shots at fans.. who didn't want a lighter and softer batman that was clearly in it's own continuity. With time i've cooled on it, and don't hat eit.. but I don't really like it either. It's just kinda there. I appricate them bringing back freakazoid, freakazoid, and their weird creative swings and the movie is okay, but I just can't get into it. The characters just aren't that funny and while not aimed at me, i'm well aware (though with a nice amount of dc cameos), it still could be funnier and it's telling my niece and nephew kinda just.. forgot about it with time. It has some strengths but just not enough to make me check out mroe than I have.

Beware the Batman: Magpie because I like the rework. As for the show itself I didn't get to see enough to really judge it, as we dropped out of cable around this time. I should go back if it's anywhere to watch. That said what I saw was decent.. nothing amazing, but nothing terrible. It's the second series to try following an earlier batman. Now the third overall. And it does try to have it's own identity using more obscure rogues and katana as a main character, both novel ideas (and apparently also building up to the outsiders as a whole).. but frankly I feel if they wanted to go the outsdiers direction it woudl've made more sense to just do batman and the outsiders, as while a batman team up show just happened batman having his own full team that isn't the batfamily but is under him so far hasn't been done in animation. It felt like it wanted to be btas but also didn't want to be btas, something the other two young batman shows i've seen don't have: The Batman goes for a more action oriented show over the mood and atmosphere of btas while Caped Crusader goes for scummier crooks, leans harder into the 40s having a similar vibe (from similar creators) but it's own stuff btas , the batman and bwtb couldn't do. It's not a horrible show, but it's one that feels misguided, trying hard ot be diffrent than the previous three shows, without actually being all that diffrent. The only thing it had was focusing on more obscure foes, and even that novelty didn't quite pan out.

Guys you're making us look bad in front of Batman!
