>>113041867>the smart one who gathers clues and solves the crime>is just the cute one who gets captured or tied upThe first one applies to Fred, Velma, and Daphne, and all the characters get captured multiple times throughout the series. Those three were practically interchangeable in Where are You. It's why they were easily cut from the series in the 80s, because they didn't actually have stand out personalities. Then they had Daphne to fill the role the three had occupied originally.
The real problem is that when the brought back the entire original team they strictly made Fred the trap guy, and Velma the brainy one leaving Daphne with nothing other than being a pretty face. And somewhere along the way there was some revisionist history where Daphne was captured every episode.
