Expy: Unsure of what the voice of a hippie would sound like, Casey Kasem based his vocal style and mannerisms for Shaggy on those of Richard Crenna's character Walter Denton from Our Miss Brooks. Disappeared Dad: He and Velma are the only members of the gang in the original series to never have had their parents show up. Velma's parents were at least introduced in A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, but Fred's parents still don't show up, though his uncle does appear in one episode. This trope leads to some interesting interpretations in later shows... Scooby's more courageous nephew. The one who yells, "Let me at 'em!", when he sees the Monster of the Week. To prevent spoilers, some of Scrappy's tropes from the 2002 movie Scooby-Doo are not listed here and are instead listed in the live-action characters list. Notorious for being the Trope Namer for The Scrappy. People are always looking for the next costume idea, and this one will have them all wondering if it's their imagination or if Scooby Doo has made an appearance at your Halloween party. This DIY costume is easy enough to put together yourself and ensure that each group member will fit in with the other characters. These costumes are great for Halloween and good for winning costume contests! Scooby Doo Family Costume Advertised Extra: In spite of her, Fred, and Daphne's silhouettes appearing in the title sequence of Shaggy & Scooby-Doo Get A Clue!, the three of them only have speaking appearances in "Shags to Riches" and "Almost Ghosts", the only thing coming after that being a silent cameo by Fred and Daphne without Velma in "Inside Job".

Fashion Dissonance: There's often a belief shown in later appearances, such as A Pup Named Scooby-Doo and the first Scooby-Doo live-action film, that go-go boots are Daphne's regular footwear. Her character image above and every appearance in Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, and nearly every other series and film that follows, show that she mostly wears pumps. Agent Scully: Surprisingly enough, and likely in reaction to his portrayal in A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, the earliest installments of the video film series saw Fred insist that there must be a rational explanation for the supposedly haunted goings-on they kept running into. Problem is, this trend started with Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island. Advertised Extra: She, Velma, and Fred's silhouettes can be seen in the opening sequence of Shaggy & Scooby-Doo Get A Clue!, but "Shags to Riches" and "Almost Ghosts" are the only episodes where the three appear with speaking roles and all that came after that was Daphne and Fred making a silent cameo in "Inside Job".

Easy Diy Scooby Doo & Shaggy Halloween Costume

Graceful Ladies Like Purple: Her outfit consists of a purple top, dress, pink pantyhose, and purple shoes. She also wears a plastic purple headband. And in some versions, she has purple eyes. The Baby of the Bunch: The youngest member of the gang by some years, and the most excitable. The others try to keep out of trouble, though not always successfully. Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated had his most Badass form when he "killed" a robot double who tried to kill his friends with a forklift! His line to the robot? "PLAY DEAD!" Book Smart: While it varies depending on the adaptation, Velma is generally portrayed as being very knowledgeable due to studying in books and, in series produced after the advent of the internet, online. She generally knows math, and in What's New, Scooby-Doo?, she knows a bit of history. Action Girl: Later adaptations have Daphne display multiple, high-skill action abilities as if she's the franchise's own version of Lara Croft. The routine in nearly every direct-to-video film is to have a scene or two that showcases her action skills, and often the rest of the gang being surprised.

She's implied to be Latina in SCOOB!, due to her Ambiguously Brown skin and use of Gratuitous Spanish. Oblivious to Love: In some incarnations like Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated Fred is a teenager with only one thing on his mind. Unfortunately for Daphne, that something happens to be "solving mysteries and building traps!" Dumb Muscle: He's a large friendly dog who isn't very bright and is heavy enough to topple bad guys by accident. Though he still has his flashes of brilliance.Brooklyn Rage: In his earliest appearances he had a definite Brooklyn accent, which was toned down after a while. Justified that he grew up in New York. The Chessmaster: Sometimes tends to be the benign version of this trope, most notably in "Where's My Mummy". She also seems to love secrecy (see Cryptic Conversation), probably implying that she derives pleasure from baffling others.
