Notes/trivia

• This is the series premiere of Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated.
• The series is a reboot outside of standard continuity.[1] Any connection that can be made is intended as a homage and nothing more.
• This was originally aired as a sneak peak on April 5, 2010; it officially aired on July 12, 2010.
• In standard continuity, the gang's surnames weren't revealed until more than ten years after their first appearance, while here, they're already revealed in the opening theme song.
• Vincent Van Ghoul is a reference to the warlock of the same name from the TV series, The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo (with the likeness and (real) voice of Vincent Price). In SDMI, he is a B-movie horror actor.

Miscellaneous

• Clues:

Cultural references

• One of the tourists (voiced by Jeff Bennett) following Velma resembles Don Knotts. Knotts appeared as himself on the TV series, The New Scooby-Doo Movies.
• In the scene where the Slime Mutant corners Daphne by the door, the framing of their faces in the shot is an homage to Aliens 3, where the Alien corners Ripley.

Animation mistakes and/or technical glitches

• The first time Shaggy and Scooby are in their disguises, Shaggy's eyebrows are red like his wig. Also, when Scooby complains about his skirt, his eyebrows are yellow, while also flashing black.
• When the gang awkwardly respond to Raffalo's not being paid well, their body movements don't completely match their voices.

Inconstitencies/continuity errors and/or goofs/oddities

• None of the people in Velma's tour group are actually tourists. Either they all decided to move there afterwards or they all just happened to be new in town. It's also possible that they had just never taken it before. However, the two that talk are credited as tourists.
• Before walking into Fruitmeir's, Daphne's carrying a handbag around her arm which presumably contains Shaggy and Scooby's belongings, then when she enters, her handbag is gone and she's just holding said belongings.
• There's clearly something dodgy going on, as Franklin doesn't even know what his own dessert is made of, and the large storage room in the back of Fruitmeir's contains six barrels with radiation symbols on them, and many more smaller containers with that symbol.
