My favorite Daphne is when she's in TNSDMysteries. Personality and leadership.

I prefer 1983-85 Daphne but I find Be Cool Daphne to be meh as she's not as worse as the other incarnations. I mostly try to avoid modern Scooby though.

It's not that I don't like her, it's just the character isn't Daphne. (We really need to add more options to this poll) I honestly think Daphne's new obsession for the day would be better suited to a Be Cool version of Flim Flam or a new character. Though to be honest I have no clue what a Be Cool version of Daphne would be, mabye a hopeless romantic who ships the gang to whoever the meet? Oh and they could definitely play up her being danger prone. Be Cool is probably the best version of Daphne we've had since What's New(excluding the Whats New karate movie), it's just strange to see her be called Daphne when she's such a far cry from the original in most episodes. I could see a better be cool Daphne being so happy in her relationship with Fred that she tries to make Shaggy and Velma fall in love.

The creator of Be Cool Scooby-Doo confirmed there will be no ships here on this form. There will be a Shaphne reference in Season 2 but that's it.

after mystery Inc butchered all relationships it touched, with the exception of Velma-Marcie, getting away from pairing up characters was the right thing to do. Going in a zany direction worked, imo

Going in a zany direction worked, imo So just because ONE series (set in an alternate universe) screwed it up, no future series should use the two main ships ever again? Is that what you're saying? because that's a totally ridiculous opinion. They should try it again at some point but with the main 'verse's personalities. Have you forgotten that in most scooby shows, Velma accepts Shaggy as he is? They should just try it again and this time draw from the oldest shows and Where's my Mummy. That way they can get it right.

I think all Scoobnick is trying to say is that it's nice to have a break from the relationships after SDMI did a somewhat poor job (in his opinion) with the relationships.

Doo is right, I'm not suggesting we never have relationships again, but that going away from them for a series or two, is nice. Fred-Daphne has been overdone since the 80s really, its cliche at this point. having a series where they arent paired together is a good thing

She's fine if you view it as how she went from her 70's self to her 00's self, kinda like a prototype (as i think everyone's 80's selves as Bill & Joe intended is their fully developed personas so with the 90's, WNSD & GAC Bill & Joe simply returned to an earlier point in scooby history like they did with Flintstones until their respective passings and those behind be cool and the dtvs even with the multiple art shifts follow that idea as well.)

Not really, her character is too gimmicky now and it gets distracting.

Looking back at this, I think this is behavior that should come from Scrappy and Daphne is the type of character that would join in as she did in 13 Ghosts. I wonder if the "Muppet Babies" phase never happened, they would have work from Daphne's 80's persona since that would have been the latest point before the revival if Pup didn't exist. My guess is the writers who revived the show watched Pup for references on the personas of Daphne, Fred and Velma.

She's one of my favorite Daphnes! IMO, Daphne has never been lacking a personality (except for SDWAY, but that's ok because NOBODY had a personality in that one). She's just been the member of the gang with the most character changes because not many people really know what to do with her. They assume that because she's the "pretty" one, that she doesn't have a personality to work with, which just isn't true.
Regardless, BC Daphne is wonderful. She's one of the biggest influences on the General Daphne in my head/that I use in my own creations.

I do like this version of Daphne, but I think the other versions are better. I vehemently disagree with this old post from myself 5 years lol. I think this is one of the best versions of Daphne and I love how they made her very quirky, unique, and a free spirit rather than just "the pretty face" as other iterations of the franchise have characterized here as.
