Dick Van Dyke really put on a one-man show in his carnival! ;D I enjoyed this episode.
The show was great, the guest stars are fantastic, but the 40-minute length got a bit boring some times.

This has one of my favorite Daphne moments ever....the Dodge 'Em Cars! Heather North Really nailed it. She's so talented and perfect for Daphne. Grey DeLisle is terrible and pales in comparison to Heather's talent and lovely voice. The episode itself? Not the greatest but enjoyable for what it is!

I agree, there's a lot of filler in these episodes. But for what it's worth, Dyke was hilarious in this and really carried it!

It's fine. Dick Van Dyke is a decent guest star, and there's some nice gags involving the carnival, but yeah, it has a bit too much filler for my tastes.

This started Daphne's love affair with men more than twice her age <3 I liked this episode, it wasn't spectacular or anything. Some things were clever, Scooby was particularly cute in this one. Daphne was given some personality in this one, she likes romance, having her picture taken and having fun. I did find it funny how Fred has his arm around Daphne in one scene, and then in the next scene he forgets about her.

That was one of the better episodes of TNSDM. Dick Van Dyke was a really enjoyable guest here and I'm also glad that the Gang wasn't overshadowed by him. I can even say that Daphne had one of her best moments in the whole franchise here I also loved Velma saying "Women...", while complaining about Daphne's girlish behaviour and then realising that she's a woman too I wonder if that was a reference to "Velma being lesbian" jokes or something like that...

Really gained an appreciation for this one while rewatching the series. I love the banter while Shaggy and Scooby are with the ghost on the rollercoaster. Dick Van Dyke was a great guest as well. Good stuff

Looved this one. Dick was funny and charmingly sweet. The gang also felt like they were having fun

Hard episode to rate imo. When watching the series in order this one makes me sentimental because it's the last one and the atmosphere is kinda depressing too in a way. Having the gang wind up at a Carnival suits the end of the series. I appreciate that it wasn't another 'Foul Play at Funland'. Dick really makes the most of it with his character and delivers the humor. The gang plays off him well. The ghostly strongman is an interesting villain and fits the theme of The Haunted Carnival. I could agree with some filler at the halfway point but think the climax wraps it up nice.

Plot: Thankfully, it was a solid final episode. The mystery was great, and all the investigations the gang made were fun to watch. 7/10 Set Up: The carnival had so many interesting places with a lot of tricks and secret doors. I enjoyed it. 8/10 Villain: The Strongman was scary and threatening, but his disguises were not so much. I liked that he had many costumes, though. 6/10
BONUS Guest Star: Dick Van Dyke was awesome. A true man's show. He was funny, he was charming, and he had great chemistry with the gang, especially with Shaggy and Scooby. 9/10 Nostalgia Boost:+0,5
Final Score:8/10
