Trivia:

The first Scooby-Doo show to abandon many of the classic Hanna-Barbera sound effects, which were a trademark of the previous shows that Hanna-Barbera Productions produced. Although a small portion of the Hanna-Barbera library is still used, new Foley effects were recorded and created exclusively for the series to make it sound more "realistic" and "updated," compared to the older, more "cartoony" shows.

Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: During the opening credits, when the gang is shown running in silhouette form, Fred's silhouette doesn't appear.

Quotes:

Fred 'Freddy' Jones:Okay, here's the plan. Shaggy, you and Scooby create a diversion.
Norville 'Shaggy' Rogers:Right.
Fred 'Freddy' Jones:Daphne, you and Velma will jump over to the other side of the roof and get to that control panel.
Velma Dinkley, Daphne:Check.
Baseball Specter:What about me?
Fred 'Freddy' Jones:Well, you're gonna make your way over to the -
[Fred gasps then the Gang screams and runs away]

Soundtrack:

What's New Scooby Doo?

What's New Scooby-Doo? Well,...

...not much!

I know it's too soon to comment because only one episode has aired so far but I think I can predict where this show is going. Well, to begin with this show is WAY better then the ones that aired in the `80s but that's because the one from the `80s had Scrappy-Doo but that's the advantage of the show. It's Scrappy free! But the disadvantage is that William Hanna passed away and Joseph Barbera is to old to look over the show. That disadvantage could hurt the show a lot because this show is missing the Hanna-Barbera touch. Not to mention that it's missing the winning formula which made the original show Scobby-Doo, Where are You? such an incredibly great and funny show. And that formula is the great mysteries, characters, jokes, gags, and let's not forget the HIDDEN JOKES!!!!

So in conclusion this is a pretty good show actually and hopefully the writers, producers, and directors will find a winning formula and the show will get better and more creative as it goes on.
