#not Fred and Barney

This randomly came on and it’s a nearly perfect pop song. Just literal greatness.

Listen to music! Sometimes you’ll find a little slice that makes you happy to be alive.

I gotta say, I find it amusing that the Dead End characters in some ways embody the Scooby Doo mystery gang.

The first main example I can think of is Norma. Who is quite literally inspired by both Daphne and Velma. (The color palette of Daphne, but functions similarly to Velma)

However since she mostly embodies Velma, she's basically the Velma of the group.

In contrast, we have Badyah as Daphne over here and I mostly say this because her and Norma are often paired together to solve a mystery. (Yes, I know she wears glasses like Velma, but I'm making her the Daphne).

Then we have Barney and Pugsley filling the role of Shaggy and Scooby. This is a more obvious one as both dogs are capable of talking. Not to mention Barney has been shown to be more fearful of the paranormal and has stated that he's a foodie (although it's show less in him and way more in Shaggy)

Then finally, there's Logs filling the role of Fred. They're both cool and confident, but also have their moments of being scared too. They're also pretty technical (Fred with traps and Logs with park safety). Also Fred is the driver of the mystery machine and from what we see in the show, Logs is the only one seen driving.

So yeah, I just wanted to share my observations about this.
