So I've read in different places about how the show is supposed to go, and how SD:MI is it's own continuity. And I've tried to put them together and my findings I think that there is 4 different continuities to consider:
Live Action
Mystery Begins Curse of the Lake Monster Scooby Doo Monsters
Cartoon Network Era/SD:MI
Modernized/WB (Yes is does make it's own continuity, Daphne said she wanted to see real ghosts in Zombie Island but she did see real ghosts in the 13 ghosts. You would end the HB Era with the 13 Ghosts and start all over from scratch with the WB Scooby Doo)
Pup Get a Clue Zombie Island What's New?
HB Era/Original Where are you? Scooby Doo movies Scooby Doo Show Scooby & Scrappy New Scooby and Scrappy Show ---Movies--- GG, RW, BB 13 Ghosts
So what do you all think, does everything run together or breaking the series up works?

Different people have different views when it comes to continuity. It's not something that has a definite answer.
I view everything as being on one continuity. And I don't believe in Mystery Begins/Lake Monster at all.

Oh? Why is that? I don't think I've asked that before.

Ooh, that's a good catch on Daphne saying that in Zombie Island. I planned on figuring out the continuity as I went through everything in a few months, but this gives me some insight before I go through all of that.

Yea, when I heard her say that I was like so 13 Ghosts had to be the end of some timeline. Plus she seemed a little older.
I mean in Zombie Island she had to be about 24 while in 13 ghosts she was a little older, probably about 26 or something.

Oh? Why is that? I don't think I've asked that before. There are just way too many contradictions with them. Basically, everything that those movies tried to reveal had already been revealed or already had an explanation for. So, I don't see why they needed to make them in the first place. If I did believe in them though, I would definately have them in a separate continuity from everything else.

Yea I see what you mean, I tried to watch the movies twice but they never came on again. The first time around I watch for the mystery, the second time for detail. And from what I remember it does mess everything up for continuities sake.

I mean watching them it was like contradiction, after contradiction, after contradiction. I mean everything! It drives me crazy. I just refuse to accept them as being true.

Sigh, another discussion on continuity? Anyone want to give my answer for me since it feels like I've given it often enough? You can cut and paste the most recent one from the made for tv prequels thread in the movies section.

I don't know I think I could connect Pup to WNSD because in that one episode they had them flashback to kids. Technology is up to speed through the years. Um as for Fred's personality he did seem a little clueless in both of these series regardless.

Seee, I'm used to James Bond and the first 20 films are continuity, despite the fact Dr. No (the first film) clearly takes place in 1962 and the last of that continuity (Die Another Day) clearly takes place in 2002. I think as long as events aren't contradicted it should be fine. Especially in the case of a cartoon continuity, plus some continuities can branch out (13 Ghosts may not jive with Zombie Island, but it could just be a branch off of the original show)
