Russm, did you see you could vote for more than one? I'm just wondering if everyone gets this.
We've got Elvira, Bruce Campbell (From Evil Dead series), Barnabas Collins is the Dark Shadows soap opera lead, Ozzie Osbourne, Gabriel Iglesias is a heavyweight hispanic kid friendly comedian who's about to get his own cartoon actually and is legit funny, and Alice Cooper.

yeah good thinking captainbuck. dixie was a bit of a ditz in showboat scooby but since the episode was just 7 minutes long she didnt get much screentime or character development. having her be in several episodes could help develop her character nicely. her relationship with scooby can be hinted at like hot dog water and velmas was in mystery inc. dum as stated before was in more episides than any other relative so bringing him would be a very nice touch. we could have him be a bit smarter in this series, but theres a reason hes called scooby dum, hes not einstein.

Maybe I'm slow, but, the utility of Velma's turtleneck sweater for this series just made several things obvious.

I did as they are tick boxes not radio buttons but having never heard of Barnabas Collins or Gabriel Ignlesias, needed to be reminded who Bruce Campbell was only being vaguely familiar with Elvira I didn't have much more material to work with.

Sorry, i'm brainstorming on the possibilities of how to get a Dark Shadows storyline rolling. Barnabas Collins is the Vampire of Collinsport in the old Dark Shadows goth soap opera. I'm not the first with this idea. I thought I was then saw it existed in the Fanfic forum last summer also. So, I am thinking a full on assult of non-lethal bickering is going on between Barnabas and Angelique. Changing the introduction of Victoria Winters after Barnabas is almost inconsequential. She can be filling in for a recently disappeared Governess. I know it's sacrilege to DS Canon, but after Alexandra Moltke left, it all shifted to Barnabas vs Angelique, which is where we want to be for Scooby Doo, as insane as that sounds. It's be an interesting exercise in Scooby storylines for a Halloween special.

No prob. I thought that poll was set to let us edit our answers too, but I guess not.

For Elvira, Macabre Movie Mayhem could feature her trying to film a 3rd Movie and having it have production problems due to 'real hauntings' by one or more villains from her B movie show come to life. Don't forget, we have a strong link with Elvira here as she was real life friends with Vincent Price and Scooby and Vincent have been linked since 13 Ghosts and Shaggy and Scooby watch B Horror movies. So, perhaps, they can be watching her Movie Macabre show when an incident happens live one night as it airs.

Hahahha, an episode of Scooby opening with a young woman walking along the road in Collinwood talking to herself... www.collinwood.net/features/misc/frame.htmGirl walking alone on the deserted road talks to herself: "My journey is just beginning. A journey that I hope will open the doors of life to me, and link my past with my future... A journey that will bring me to a strange and dark place, to the edge of the sea, high atop Widows' Hill,..." [The gang pulls up in the mystery machine] Daphne: "Hey Fred, pull over and see if that girl needs a ride, the weather's about to get really bad" Fred: "Certainly." Fred to Girl: "Hello, do you need a ride?" Girl: "... to a house called Collinwood... " Velma opens door: "Here you go, get in!" Daphne: "What's this place Collinwood like?" Girl: "A world I've never known, with people I've never met. People who are still only shadows in my mind, but who will soon fill the days and nights of my tomorrows..." Shaggy and Scooby: [Make crazy person twirly motions next to their heads and look at each other confused] Daphne and Velma to each other: "MmmmKay!". Fred: "So Miss, what's your name?" Girl: "My name is Victoria Winters". Victoria: "I'm going to be the Governess of master David Collins at Collinwood. It's a very large estate, maybe they are hiring other positions as well. They are very well to do and own their own Fishing and Cannery Company.
