I enjoyed it. I like the museum setting and the villain was cool. I like how he referenced Velma always losing her glasses.

Here it is, the infamous Urkel episode everyone was either looking forward to or dreading! The Mystery Inc. gang getting annoyed at Urkel was pretty amusing!
I call it; the mastermind behind the techno ghost is really the female janitor!
Really, Urkel thought he could drive that old streamline train being displayed? I figured it wasn't going to go anywhere, and just fall on its' side. And why would the museum leave its' horn working?
When Urkel and Shaggy were trying to get Scooby out of the toppled train, I heard that H-B "wild scramble" sound effect that showed up once an episode on "What's New, Scooby-Doo." (I'm surprised "Wabbit/New Looney Tunes" didn't use it, like how they kept using that "tube take" sound effect once an episode.)
Anyone notice Velma's hourglass figure? It kind of reminded me how she was slimmer and more shapely in "What's New, Scooby-Doo?" and the 2004-2009 direct-to-video movies. As if the "Hartman Hips" Yeson gave Daphne wasn't enough... And why would the museum leave the submarine's torpedo device working? When Urkel pressed the button, I heard that old klaxon sound used in several early 90s WB cartoons!
Sounds like Frank Welker voiced the robot minions...
That chase and capture of the techno ghost was epic, especially with how Urkel and his Bot helped!
I called it! I KNEW the techno ghost would be the janitor. It's almost always the one you least suspect, and in most cases someone the gang had already met earlier in the story.
So now this is the third time the Mystery Machine blew up (before that, it was in "Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated" and in "Scooby-Doo! Frankencreepy.") Fred wailing "URRRKELLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!" was hilarious! You know how much he loves his Mystery Machines. (And I bet by the next episode, the Mystery Machine will be intact as if nothing happened to it!)

As a resident of Chicagoland, I loved the accurate nods to the real-life Museum of Science & Industry. This institution does in fact have a large diesel train, a giant German U-boat submarine, a coal mine exhibit, and a variety of space and air vessels hanging from the ceiling. That said, there are no dinosaurs (they reside at the lakefront's Field Museum), and the MSI is not at all in the vicinity of downtown, instead located 50-plus blocks south of the Loop.
As for the episode and plot, it was so stupid, and I absolutely loved every second. Goofy Scooby is the best Scooby.

And why would the museum leave the submarine's torpedo device working? Torpedo fuel ranges from nasty (Otto fuel) to dangerous (High Test Peroxide, the fuel that sank the Kursk).

Something still isn’t clicking for me with this series. Goofy episode, I hated Urkel as a guest but was kind of amused by the hate towards him even tho it got old at a certain point. Finally 2 female suspects. Also the animation looked good again. Last episode was the only one in which it felt super off. The technomancer was cool designed after the SDWAY ghosts

I didn't like that they blew up The Mystery Machine. Eventhough I know it will be fine like in the other episodes/movies.

It was a good episode. So obvious that the culprit was the character they tried to throw you off the most from, though.

I thought this episode was really good! I didn't mind Urkel as a guest and thought he was pretty funny. The Technomancer was a really cool villain too! Probably my second favorite episode so far. But man, can that dude ever break stuff, lol. As for the episode and plot, it was so stupid, and I absolutely loved every second. Goofy Scooby is the best Scooby. That pretty much sums up my thoughts on the episode too.

The best Family Matters episodes are the ones where Urkel is depicted as a destructive force of nature that inflicts suffering on everyone he comes in contact with. I think this episode captured that perfectly.

As the most of mid-season episodes were meh, this was quite good, despite the fact that Urkel somehow managed to be more annoying than Scrappy Doo and Flim Flam combined.
I also didn't expect WW2 Kriegsmarine's U-Boot in a Scooby Doo episode - nice touch!

The Technomancer was pretty cool but I. Couldn't. Stand. Urkel! His voice, his jokes, his attitude, the whole package was extremely annoying to me! My least favorite episode.
