Well the first one didn't catch on too much, but I still want to talk about this series which I've been watching a lot recently. So what is your favorite of the two part episodes? I have a feeling A Halloween Hassle might be the most popular answer

My ranking goes as follows
6. Ghosts of the Ancient Astronauts- Ok this is actually really good even though its in last in this difficult category. It's an awesome Indiana Jones like adventure
5. A Night Louse at the White House- I have a big soft spot for this one. It is probably the worst just based off of the plot, but I love the feel of the episode
4. A Halloween Hassle at Dracula's Castle- An iconic episode. Not much else left to say besides it's obvious why this is so good
3. Happy Birthday Scooby Doo- Another classic. I really like the twists that this episode has
2. Sherlock Doo- Really fun one. I like the idea that the villain has to use a distraction. Underrated gem
1. A Nutcracker Scoob- Easily the most nostalgic of the series and my favorite of the series

If I could only have one, it would be Ancient Astronauts. Not only do you have the aforementioned Indiana Jones feel, but it calls back to The Sirius Mystery, naming the temple they journey through "The Temple of Sirius". The pre-Aladdin cave crystal scene is neat as well, though Aladdin admittedly did it better. The zombies also mention "Shambhala", which could refer to either a mystical land or underworld. The word has ties to the Hollow Earth conspiracy theory, as well. I feel that Hanna-Barbera really outdid themselves here, with all the pop culture references and wide array of settings & villains in a single episode.

One of the best episodes that’s not necessarily mystery based of the franchise. Although I will admit, the mystery aspect of the other episodes rather than the adventure focus on this one is what put the other ones higher on my list

1. A Halloween Hassle at Dracula's Castle (LOVE the vibe of the castle and the mystery within a mystery so to speak) 2. The Nutcracker Scoob (it's really close between these top two, because they're both great holiday episodes) 3. Happy Birthday Scooby-Doo (loved the This is Your Life format of the episode) 4. A Night Louse at the White House (decent but not great) 5. Sherlock Doo (has some good moments, but it's kinda strange) 6. Ghosts of the Ancient Astronauts (didn't really care for the plot and wish they would have made the aliens the villains because their designs were super cool)
