>>107588088I wouldn't listen to those mooks. Look, Scooby Gang was first, and the very best, but-
They were just a bunch of kids traveling all over the friggin world for no goddamn reason. Some of the other shows had better justifications:
Chan Clan: Dad was a world-famous detective -- simple as that.
Jabberjaw: They were a band traveling from gig-to-gig (Josie and the Pussycats did that shtick, too) and wackiness would then ensue.
Speed Buggy: Racing team trying to make a name for themselves with a car that transforms itself, has a very human persona, and talks (I began constructing a hypothesis that Seedy, and other talking Hanna-Barbera inanimate objects that seemed to have independent though and will were results of Cybertronian tech lost into the wild (or the work of super-scientists -- Dr. Quest, Dr. Zinn, etc) I've since seen other such theories on the interwebs, but I digress).
Clue Club: These were kids who were serious about their crime-busting - computers, 2-way video conferencing, actively seeking out stuff to foil or solve (pretty certain that at least Larry and Dottie both wound up with plum assignments in the CIA, FBI, SHIELD, CHECKMATE, or the like) . I would guess that DD and Pepper got married (they were always thrown together). I think DD went to a big city, and eventually became police commissioner...
