These episodes gave me a phrase I say at every opportunity “Good question” “I wish I had a good answer” “Or even a bad answer” “…uh oh I think we found that bad answer”
The Globetrotters episodes are some of my all time favorites of the New Scooby Doo Movies! they made more appearances than any other guest stars on the show! "The Lochness Mess" and "The Mystery Of Haunted Island" are the one's i like the most!!!
I've had at least one set I had to get again specifically because the DVDs were just SO used. My New Scooby-Doo Movies DVD set is barely hanging on from childhood but I at least have it upgraded to blu-ray now 😅
The Harlem Globetrotters had the most appearances in The New Scooby-Doo Movies. They appeared in that show 3 times, twice for Don Knotts, twice again for Batman & Robin and twice once again for The 3 Stooges. But I have a feeling you already knew that by the time you're reading this comment right now.
This was like my favorite Scooby Doo episode. I remember I'd always check this one out from the library. Still use "Good night, y'all!" to this day. Recently rechecked it out and it still holds up. What a gem.
Funny how as a child of the 80's these memories re-emerge. And when I go looking I find great stuff like this. I think we were all pretty lucky those of us that grew up in that period. :-)
Favorite episode of Scooby-Doo of all time is the Loch Ness monster mess. I really like the episode because I like seeing the Globetrotters and it taken place and a giant mansion
This needs to happen more often. There should be more Scooby-Doo Sports specials! I like to imagine that Scooby can play any and all sports very well. I certainly remember the original 2 episodes DVD. I rented it many times myself. Great idea having the Mystery Inc. group meet The world touring Globetrotters! Truly fantastic. Not as familiar with that first episode. Very good job on this retrospective!
Hong Kong Fui, damn that brings back memories, I remember often watching it before or after the cats in hats (whatever it was called, with that yellow cat in I think a purple suit and hat).
i had the dvd as a kid and still regularly think about all the globetrotters in the bed and the conversation about whose toes are whose haha - i haven’t seen the episode in yearrrrs so this was a fun nostalgic trip!!
i love all of these episodes and The Loch Ness Mess is my favorite episode of The New Scooby-Doo Movies i've seen the Globetrotters cartoon it was good but it's been forever since i've watched that show
How dare you call these forgotten, they're remembered in my heart! (fun fact: these were so good that i bought a dvd set of the entirety of The New Scooby Doo Movies! This was a mistake! These are by far the best episodes in it!)
oh also shout out to the sunny and cher crossover episode which is great if you like watching a visibly failing marriage be played for comedy, which i guess i do cus i love that episode!
I grew up in the 70s and loved watching the Scooby Doo cartoons. But I don't remember The Globetrotters' own cartoon. It does help explain why they made 3 appearances on the New Scooby Doo Movies, though.
I just finished watching your "secret" video. I'm waiting for the season to end so that I can just bing it. After hearing so many negative reviews it was nice to hear at least one positive to help keep things in perspective. It was also good to watch to find out a specific thing about it that also helps me with understanding the direction it is taking.
It's definitely a very mixed bag even as someone enjoying it. For every good joke there are probably a couple back to back that fall flat or worse. I think the actual mystery/plot and characterizations have settled well over halfway in though. At worst, it's a mid-tier mystery-comedy with amazing production values so I don't think I'll ever understand why it's treated like it's the worst thing to ever happen to humanity. I watch it for what it is, not what it isn't, and it serves that purpose decently.
The Ghostly Creep from the Deep and the Mystery of Haunted Island are two of my favorite episodes from the season. I also do agree with you about the "fake" laugh track. Fake is right! For those of you who are unaware, Hanna-Barbera had a full laugh track from 1960 to 1971 on various media, including Where Are You, the Globetrotters' series, and Josie. And then afterwards they made it worse by extracting six laughs from the real track to a recorder, and you will hear those six laughs incessantly for the rest of the decade. As much as I like Hanna-Barbera, I think it was a pretty cheap move on their part!
To be perfectly honest i can’t remember which episode it was, but I do remember watching at least one of the Scooby Doo Globetrotters cross over episodes, it was back on boomerang when I was younger when they were playing the old Scooby Doo series all the time
I forgot that this crossover existed I would love to revisit this particular Scooby crossover with the Harlem globetrotters looks like I'll have search for these epsdoies via the dvd release of Scooby-Doo meets the Harlem globetrotters thanks for covering these epsdoies also had no idea that there was a third crossover episode with them I don't remember that one but I do vividly remember the other 2 crossover episode's maybe a rewatch of those epsdoies will refresh my memory of them
@@Scoobytopia My apologies, totally my misunderstanding. This video is making me very nostalgic. I remember seeing at least some of these globetrotter shows on early Cartoon Network, and I’m almost positive, years before that, on the USA network cartoon express.
I can understand them going out of heavy circulation after the players stopped being relevant to the current team but the shows are so nostalgic and funny that it's a shame they've all but disappeared from the public eye outside of Scooby's hand 🥺
'I don't know Sports, so who am I to judge?' The Globetrotters were a real team, but, at the same time, a gag promotion. There were legitimate, real games, as well as slapstick events where they hammed it up, performing wacky stunts, prearranged with the other teams., Okay, no stacking on each other's shoulders, but all kinds of wacky hi-jinx that would, as you surmised, be against he rules.
I just found out your channel and I watched everything in a day and man, you are the best thing I could find, I adore Scooby-Doo and I wanted someone that emits a cozy(?) atmosphere while talking about they and I love. Thanks a lot, keep it and lobe from Greece
@@Scoobytopia no, thank YOU. Quick question, are you going to cover more water themed monsters from Scooby-Doo? Personally they kick started my fear for the ocean (yet at the same time my love for the ocean) so it would be fun to see your spin on it
I don't have plans right now, but I certainly could down the line! I'm working on two different really interesting videos simultaneously right now and have planned out a couple of the ones I'm doing after, so I'm always looking for potential ideas to explore that catch my interest.
I love the two episode vhs I had with these episodes as a kid. I think the finale ep you covered is my favorite cause I love the idea of the Villians kinda getting away with keeping the Globetrotters up all night and I loved the way the gang helped them win. The other episodes are interesting especially the first you covered which I never saw but all of them are fun goofy episodes.
In actuality, The Globetrotters were actually an exhibition team that toured around playing against local teams of the cities they visited. They mostly did silly stunts during the game and were not like an official NBA team. They not only had adventures in cartoons, but also made a live action guest appearance in the tv movie, The Harlem Globetrotters on Gilligan's Island, where they help the castaways save their themed hotel from a greedy competitor of the Howels and their robotic players.
The impromptu Kuroko AMV was an on the fly editing joke that I couldn't resist when I was hit with the vision. I had to follow through for the sake of art
@@Scoobytopia I get that entirely and absolutely have to show my friends, I'm the exact same way with editing. I follow quite a few Scooby channels but they definitely don't hit like yours, it's always better than I could've expected. Can't wait to see what's next!
watching scooby i remember the first and last globetrotters episode just not the second one. i didn't even know the globetrotters had a tv show, guess that explains the dog i always saw in the intro with the scooby doo movies. this was a fun episode can't wait for more.
Having the Harlem Globetrotter meets Scooby Doo DVD, which I picked up for $10 at Cracker Barrel, I’d never knew there was 3 episodes. The episodes are pretty funny especially the 2nd ones basketball while sleeping bit. Looking forward to the Batman deep dive also had that on VHS growing up so definitely seen that one. The New Scooby Doo movies don’t get that much love, so seeing someone mention them in a positive light is always a good thing. Also RUclips didn’t recommend this video to me which is weird cause usually it’ll recommend your stuff, I knew it came out because of Twitter, but had to look at the channel page to find it.
it's really interesting to me because I never really watched any of the guest-style episodes (I was a bit too young; the era of scooby I personally grew up in had the 13 Ghosts on constant rerun) but from collection VHS tapes I'd seen one of the Batman and Robin episodes, and one of the Harlem globetrotters episodes. I'd always thought they were like weird anomalies or just references I was a bit too young to get. Learning the backstory has been good fun
Or why ot couldn't air on Nickelodeon when both CBS and Nickelodeon were owned by Viacom. Yes they later got back together but I was talking about the late 1990s to the-early to mid 2000s era. When the series was nearly 30 years old as opposed to 50.
Nobody forgot this everyone knows that Scooby-Doo met the Harlem Globetrotters. I don't think most people realize that it's a real basketball team I think most people just assumed it was a thing from Scooby-Doo.
Remaking the intro for the #1 most popular basketball anime but with the Globetrotters would not leave my mind until I did it as a joke and then it was too late so I decided I might as well damage the video with a copyright hit and put it in
I remember the first two I barley remember the last one😅but I didn't know who these guys where growing up but I did still enjoy watching these tho😄they even show up in Futurama as well.
14:50 - Yeah, can we talk about Scooby Doo and how there are multiple references to the Confederacy and the Civil War? In Zombie Island, the story takes place at a Pepper Plantation and in Boo's Brothers, Shaggy's great uncle owned a Plantation. And in 2002 What's New Scooby Doo, the episode Big Scare in the Big Easy” the ghosts were Confederate soldiers. Would make for an interesting video Also, loved this video, loved the Globetrotters as a kid and as a huge fan of basketball, I found them very entertaining.
Even Scooby's great grandfather was a confederate soldier somehow, like they were down bad for the confederacy in the Scooby-verse for so long from the start 😭 there's so much to talk about and dissect around that for sure
@@Scoobytopia Yeah, I never noticed it as a kid, but growing up and re watching these movies and shows, I was like "Damn, I did not realize the confederacy was mentioned this much" It wasn't presented in a positive way, but it still raises eyebrows that it was mentioned as much as it was. It makes me wonder if the show runners were related to plantation owners, or did they just find the Civil War interesting? Still love Scooby Doo regardless, but it's still strange.
I would say Americana is rooted in the show just in general. Even the music score of the original series itself if you listen to it alone is full of old Americana folk songs woven into it in a way that evokes that specific imagery. The episode where they find confederate money, the amount of Confederate soldiers that show up, Fred telling Uncle Nat "that's the Yankee spirit" in this episode... it's present enough to be hard to ignore. Scooby and Shaggy both canonically having confederate relatives that are looked up to suggests it's also an inclusion with positive intention on some historical level. I would love to examine how deep it runs, but I would be terrified of the people it would attract lol. Even making a clear joke about Scrappy and friends being racist when they dressed up in Native American costumes in my Scooby family tree video has had many weird (white) dudes pop up to call me a soyboy and say Native Americans don't care and love it. I can only imagine how bad they would be if I spent more than a small bit discussing it, and how many times they would say I'm trying to cancel Scooby or something despite a channel full of love.
@@Scoobytopia Yeah, I completely get how people would overreact and claim that you're just trying to hate. Completely up to you if you wanna make that video, although I'm sure most of your audience would understand it's just an analysis and that you aren't saying Scooby Doo is bad or it should be canceled. It would be an interesting video idea, overall I think most people love Scooby Doo and while the Confederate references are unfortunate, I think most people look at Scooby Doo in a positive manner.
I don't think I've ever found anything of this kind in Scooby uncomfortable or awkward anyway, I always think it's very funny lol. Yet even when I am clearly joking, it's never taken as such. Honestly, it will probably happen someday, I said I would never make the queer Velma video and still did. I've been taking notes for months and low-key thinking about it haha
Petition for more Hana-Babera x granrodeo AMVs. Modern strange cowboy for Huckleberry hound or trash candy for Scooby-Doo? For real though I didn't know I needed Harlem Globetrotters anime but this is amazing
That almost didn't even make it into the video as the first thing I edited but I spent so much time on it and was so happy with how it came out that I decided it would just be everyone else's problem
Three reasons 1. HB already had the likenesses of the team and as they weren't voiced by the members they were cheaper to use. 2. during the time frame they were big stars why do you think they had 2 cartoons one before and one after the NSDM? 3. given the preexisting cartoons they likely already had animation cells they could reuse
I enjoyed the Globetrotters because it was the first to show black people in a children shows that wasn't too racist. Yes, there were some racism. I say that as you said some of them weren't voiced by black actors. Since it was the 1970s that there were a few racial stereotypes of how black people were seen back then and thankfully the Scooby-Doo Gang didn't use the N word and I am grateful for it. Well, I enjoyed them because I like how they show more well known celebrities even from back then.
I never watched much of the Scooby Doo Movies much as a kid. In part because not being American, I don't think I often had the pop cultural references needed to really understand who these new guests where. It's a pity because it's kind of fun to see the rest of the gang get more comedy bits.
This might be a weird thing to point out, but why are half of the globe trotters grey? I’m not familiar with the Harlem globe trotters but it just seems like an odd detail
Hey, dont know if you'll read this, but i want you to know i appreciated your videos. I know you dont want to do youtube anymore because of horrible creeps who harrased you, but i hope scooby doo remains a safe haven for you. Take care of yourself.
I don't have it on my schedule yet, but the fact that the meme came from that has definitely previously put it on my list of potential ideas! I have a decent handful of planned things I need to do first before I start getting around to something like that movie, but once I finish those there will probably be good time to get into it!
Yeah one time they accidentally stole my brother’s basketball and I look and say hey he stole my brother’s basketball and the players like oh shoot I’m sorry
Also emotional damage because if I ever watch that show I’d probably be happy like I’m a real fan of these basketball players I know I wish I could go back again
Yeah here’s a fun fact the Globetrotters made basketball like insane and crazy like you’re watching a movie tunes cartoon but basketball oh wait space jam but basically with real people
These episodes gave me a phrase I say at every opportunity
“Good question”
“I wish I had a good answer”
“Or even a bad answer”
“…uh oh I think we found that bad answer”
The Globetrotters episodes are some of my all time favorites of the New Scooby Doo Movies! they made more appearances than any other guest stars on the show! "The Lochness Mess" and "The Mystery Of Haunted Island" are the one's i like the most!!!
The Lochness Mess was so fun to watch. (Also the part where Scooby puts himself into a drag, what a serve)
Fun fact: Hong-Kong Phooey is canonically the person who taught Daphne her martial arts.
In Scooby-Doo Team-Up, yeah
I never knew there was a Harlem Globetrotters meet Snow White Special. I agree the original series need a DVD release.
Better late than ever
This was actually my first exposure to the Harlem Globetrotters.
21:50 killed me as a kid I loved how he spoke and how he described everything.
Gip and pabs are falling down the stairs
@@slapshotjack9806 that animation bit of them falling always stuck with me too as kid cause it was weird and different from most shots in the show
I had these on DVD and I swear I must've watched them a million times. I probably wore out the disk.
I've had at least one set I had to get again specifically because the DVDs were just SO used. My New Scooby-Doo Movies DVD set is barely hanging on from childhood but I at least have it upgraded to blu-ray now 😅

Fr my favorite out of the New Scooby Movies
I didn't actually know that the Harlem Globetrotters has a series. Thought they were just a live act.
Better late than ever for you to know
"But Colombus didn't know how to play basketball!"
*spins ball while drawing a world map on it.*
"See? Already I'm a better captain!"
Funny how as a child of the 80's these memories re-emerge. And when I go looking I find great stuff like this. I think we were all pretty lucky those of us that grew up in that period. :-)

the globetrotter episodes were among my favourite episodes from this series
Loved them all...thanks for this post
The return and just when I was really desperate for something to watch
One of the best shaggy lines came from The Loch Ness Mess, "We got trouble, trouble with a capital G-H-O-S-T!!!!"
When I was a kid I thought all the celebrities on this show where fictional.

And in 2002 What's New Scooby Doo, the episode Big Scare in the Big Easy” the ghosts were Confederate soldiers. Would make for an interesting video
Also, loved this video, loved the Globetrotters as a kid and as a huge fan of basketball, I found them very entertaining.
Even Scooby's great grandfather was a confederate soldier somehow, like they were down bad for the confederacy in the Scooby-verse for so long from the start 😭 there's so much to talk about and dissect around that for sure
@@Scoobytopia Yeah, I never noticed it as a kid, but growing up and re watching these movies and shows, I was like "Damn, I did not realize the confederacy was mentioned this much"
It wasn't presented in a positive way, but it still raises eyebrows that it was mentioned as much as it was. It makes me wonder if the show runners were related to plantation owners, or did they just find the Civil War interesting? Still love Scooby Doo regardless, but it's still strange.
I would say Americana is rooted in the show just in general. Even the music score of the original series itself if you listen to it alone is full of old Americana folk songs woven into it in a way that evokes that specific imagery. The episode where they find confederate money, the amount of Confederate soldiers that show up, Fred telling Uncle Nat "that's the Yankee spirit" in this episode... it's present enough to be hard to ignore. Scooby and Shaggy both canonically having confederate relatives that are looked up to suggests it's also an inclusion with positive intention on some historical level. I would love to examine how deep it runs, but I would be terrified of the people it would attract lol. Even making a clear joke about Scrappy and friends being racist when they dressed up in Native American costumes in my Scooby family tree video has had many weird (white) dudes pop up to call me a soyboy and say Native Americans don't care and love it. I can only imagine how bad they would be if I spent more than a small bit discussing it, and how many times they would say I'm trying to cancel Scooby or something despite a channel full of love.
@@Scoobytopia Yeah, I completely get how people would overreact and claim that you're just trying to hate. Completely up to you if you wanna make that video, although I'm sure most of your audience would understand it's just an analysis and that you aren't saying Scooby Doo is bad or it should be canceled. It would be an interesting video idea, overall I think most people love Scooby Doo and while the Confederate references are unfortunate, I think most people look at Scooby Doo in a positive manner.
I don't think I've ever found anything of this kind in Scooby uncomfortable or awkward anyway, I always think it's very funny lol. Yet even when I am clearly joking, it's never taken as such. Honestly, it will probably happen someday, I said I would never make the queer Velma video and still did. I've been taking notes for months and low-key thinking about it haha
Shaggy Drove The Mystery Machine He Had Velma And Scooby-Doo By His Side
Petition for more Hana-Babera x granrodeo AMVs. Modern strange cowboy for Huckleberry hound or trash candy for Scooby-Doo?
For real though I didn't know I needed Harlem Globetrotters anime but this is amazing
That almost didn't even make it into the video as the first thing I edited but I spent so much time on it and was so happy with how it came out that I decided it would just be everyone else's problem
20:38, Its Granny and their Globetrotter Dog.
I love The Harlem Globetrotters in this an Gilligan's Island
I never understood why the Globetrotters had three episodes in the New Movies. I felt like they should've had more 60s/70s stars over them.
Three reasons 1. HB already had the likenesses of the team and as they weren't voiced by the members they were cheaper to use. 2. during the time frame they were big stars why do you think they had 2 cartoons one before and one after the NSDM? 3. given the preexisting cartoons they likely already had animation cells they could reuse
Scooby-Doo Meets The Chicago Bulls
I enjoyed the Globetrotters because it was the first to show black people in a children shows that wasn't too racist. Yes, there were some racism. I say that as you said some of them weren't voiced by black actors. Since it was the 1970s that there were a few racial stereotypes of how black people were seen back then and thankfully the Scooby-Doo Gang didn't use the N word and I am grateful for it. Well, I enjoyed them because I like how they show more well known celebrities even from back then.
I love Hong Kong Phooey too
Should The Chicago Bulls Draft Shaggy Rogers What Will Scooby-Doo Say About Shaggy Going To The Chicago Bulls
6:19 "Woman's intuition"?, I'm pretty sure its called a rearview mirror...
Do you know who voices Curley in these episodes Eddie Rochester Anderson he was a famous radio comedian
I never watched much of the Scooby Doo Movies much as a kid. In part because not being American, I don't think I often had the pop cultural references needed to really understand who these new guests where. It's a pity because it's kind of fun to see the rest of the gang get more comedy bits.
This might be a weird thing to point out, but why are half of the globe trotters grey?
I’m not familiar with the Harlem globe trotters but it just seems like an odd detail
Likely just the animation studio trying to differentiate skin tones and not being able to realistically pull it off completely
Sometimes I Wish Velma From Scooby-Doo Was My Mother
Hey, dont know if you'll read this, but i want you to know i appreciated your videos. I know you dont want to do youtube anymore because of horrible creeps who harrased you, but i hope scooby doo remains a safe haven for you.
Take care of yourself.
I jsut want to ask if you going to do a video on the Lego scooby doo movies that was made
I might someday! If only to see Elvira again
You should the no face zombie chase
I used to have nightmares of it
It's definitely one on my list with how much it's been asked for!
@@Scoobytopia ok thx
When are you gonna be looking at the Legend of the Phantosaur?
The Origin of that "ULTRA-INSTINCT SHAGGY" meme.
I don't have it on my schedule yet, but the fact that the meme came from that has definitely previously put it on my list of potential ideas! I have a decent handful of planned things I need to do first before I start getting around to something like that movie, but once I finish those there will probably be good time to get into it!
I have the 1st season of the show
you should look up the real life footage of the scooby cameos
21:25 damn Velma, what that finger do?
well now I want to know where the secret video is lol
Neato
Oh yes the grove traverse through either one of my favorite basketball players like if I ever go there I’ll probably wear a Godzilla suit just for fun
Yeah one time they accidentally stole my brother’s basketball and I look and say hey he stole my brother’s basketball and the players like oh shoot I’m sorry
Like they’re actually based on the real Basik ball team and they’re kind of funny as hell like so funny in fact I really laughed
Also emotional damage because if I ever watch that show I’d probably be happy like I’m a real fan of these basketball players I know I wish I could go back again
Yeah also it’s kind of sad that slow lost me like it’s probably emotional damage to me and probably everyone else batteries we have some archives
Yeah here’s a fun fact the Globetrotters made basketball like insane and crazy like you’re watching a movie tunes cartoon but basketball oh wait space jam but basically with real people
