 Cause this is filler...fill the spot...cause we need another show! August 28, 2010
J. Perez (La,Ca,USA)
This show was nothing more then a filler show. it serves no purpose in the scooby doo series. The Flim Flam is like the EDDY of the group always cheatin' folks out of their money with little to no success. The 2 little ghosts are dumb-bells like the Zebra Brothers from Hero:108. Each episode is predictable at best. Find the ghost,chase the ghost & trap the ghost. The Mystery Machine looks nothing like the one from the first show. Worst of all,the show ends in a cliffhanger leaving it unresolved much like Sonic SatAm.
 Very interesting, yet very Incomplete August 23, 2010
T. Hilaire (El Monte, CA USA)
I was happy to get this as part of my collection. I found it interesting, yet incomplete.
Pros:
+Trying to capture the thirteen ghost of a Demon Chest was a very fascinating storyline.
+Scrappy didn't seem to try to steal the spotlight from his uncle. In fact, I didn't find him annoying at ALL.
+Scooby's parents.
+Vincent was an excellent addition to the season. I loved his episode narrations.
+Same classic humor from the original series. I did enjoy them dressing up for certain situations.
+Scooby snacks seemed to have a different effect on Scooby then usual.
Cons:
-I felt that the season was incomplete. They didn't capture all thirteen ghosts. It appeared to be only eleven of them. I felt as if the season should have ran fifteen or sixteen episodes.
-Flim Flam did gain my appeal with his sales pitches, however, trying to overpower the season really made me dislike him. He had too many plot contrivances.
-I hated the makeover of the Mystery Machine.
-Most of the episodes were weak with villians that weren't even a challenge to defeat. Funny because the gang spent most of their time running.
-They made Daphne virtually invisible. She didn't add much to the season at all.
-Weerd and Bogul were able to do some things, yet not be able to do other things. Didn't make any sense.
-I really missed Fred and Velma. They were really the smarter half of the gang.
Episodes:
1) I found Lotsa Luck Joy Juice being too convenient. Uck! I found it farfetched that Shaggy was their pilot. Discarding those two plotlines, I found this to be an intriguing episode that set the premise for the entire season. 4.5/5
2) Maldor in my opinion was the most challenging ghost that they had to capture. To me, it was an exciting episode which still had me anticipating what was next. Scooby being close to a Danish prince was cool. The scenes when they were trying to was up Daphne was touching. Best episode of the season. 5/5
3) It was a cool twist that the shadow wasn't one of the ghosts that they had to capture. 4/5
4) By this point, being four times in a row, I got tired of Flim Flam catching the ghosts. Not only that, but the season was starting to focus too much on him. The trophy and song scene really was too much. 2.5/5
5) The villian was laughable in this somewhat fun episode. 3/5
6) Technically, from my understanding, the ghost that they captured was a combination of the ghosts that were already in their possesion. Flim Flam was beginning to be more and more of a show stealer. 3/5
7) One of my least favorite episodes so far. It's not explained how someone that Vincent knew from the past was one of the thirteen ghosts. 1/5
8) Yet another situation where they could not have won without Vincent's help. He was the leader of this task force. 2.5/5
9) Slime Time was a really good villian in a really weak episode. The thought of them replacing Scooby was insulting. How could the future that Vincent had shown Scooby exist if they were supposed to be killed by the guy in the armor? 1/5
10) Finally, another episode that I really liked, but why couldn't Daphne or Shaggy be the one holding the chest when Scooby threw the comic section into it? 4/5
11) It was have been more appropriate for Shaggy to be holding the chest in this episode instead of Scrappy and Flim Flam for the second time in a row. Ghost proof Handcuffs. Yeah, right! 2.5/5
12) Another episode focused on Flim Flam. Ugh! However, I did enjoy this one. 4.5/5
13) Finally, Daphne was actually portrayed as one of the smarter characters, however, it was too little too late. Very weak episode for a season finale. It left me with a very unsatisfying feeling. 2.5/5
Overall ratings: 3/5
I couldn't imagine not having this as part of my collection, but it was an unfinished season. I hope that this review was helpful.
 A Damn Long Awaited Scooby Series August 20, 2010
DarkArcAngel
I remember i was in primary school when this Scooby-Doo series was first shown on tv. It quickly became my only favourite cartoon series to date. I also remembered i would religiously record every single episode on the then VHS tapes. But alas, due to various reasons, i would never complete the series. But trust me, i tried 3 times trying to complete the series and never succeeded in doing so. Talk about being unlucky!!! I was so disappointed during this 2 decades or so lemanting this "failure" of mine to capture the whole series i became quite a withdrawn person over the years. Until i saw this advert showing the series being done on DVD. I did not hesitate a second in taking out my debit card to per-order this extremely long awaited cartoon series of mine. I also believe im among the 1st few to pre-order this magnificent series. After watching the whole cartoon series the moment it arrived, i felt a sense of satisfaction and relieve, knowing it has fulfilled a long long sense of emptiness and guilt i had this past 20 years or so. Of course, this IS the most perfect Scooby-Doo series ever made. Though the only minor disappointment i would point out is the 13th ghost was never captured. Hence the series was incomplete. If only the creators of this wonderful series would gather again and complete the world's most incomplete cartoon series. Nevertheless, the positive outweigh the negative and i definitely recommend this cartoon series to all parents and grandparents, showing them what cartoons used to be in my times. Not like the heavily animated cartoons of nowadays. as i conclude this super long review, i would like to sign off by borrowing scooby's favourite sentence ," Rooby-Rooby Rooooo!!! HeheheHehe"
Grandmother's review of 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo August 11, 2010
Ellen N. Moscoe (Vancouver, WA United States)
While 13 Ghosts is not among my Favorite Scooby Doo I have to rate it very high because my 9 year old grandson and 11 year old granddaughter love it. They laugh and laugh and watch it over and over. Needless to say this gives me great joy.
 The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo: The Complete Series....... August 6, 2010
blackaciddevil (in the USA somewhere.....)
While I don't recall ever seeing this show its' first run through, I am glad to have finally gotten the chance to see it now. If this is your first time ever hearing of this Scooby show, here's what it's all about... While visiting a temple in Honolulu, Scooby and Shaggy are tricked into opening the Chest of Demons, which houses 13 ghosts and ghouls. The ghosts however, can only be returned to the chest by those who originally released them. So, it's left up to Scooby, Shaggy, Daphne, new friend Flim Flam and Vincent Van Ghoul(voiced by Vincent Price) to travel the world and recapture them all. Unlike the original Scooby cartoon shows, the ghosts and ghouls in this show aren't wearing masks because they're real. I found the show to be quite entertaining. Sure, it's old-school all the way but entertaining nonetheless.
If I had one gripe with the show, it would be(let's all say it together, lol)Scrappy. To save the life of me, I don't know why they ever created the character. Scrappy has to be one of most annoying cartoon characters I've ever had the displeasure of watching. What bothers me the most is how his character always seems to try and steal the show from Scoob. At any rate, even with Scrappy included, The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo is awesome.
Is it my favorite Scooby show? No, that honor goes to The Original Series and What's New Scooby Doo?. Still, diehard Scooby fans will want to add this to their collection. I did.
