Summary: A TIME WHEN SATURDAYS WERE ALL ABOUT CARTOONS
Review: Wow...the great thing about watching these first two seasons of Scooby Doo is the wonderful feeling of nostalgia you get with the fond memories of Saturday morning cartoons. Remember that time of the 60's and 70's when Saturday mornings were all about cartoons on the three major networks from about 8am to noon? I remember being so excited when each of the networks would premiere their new Satuday lineups usually on the Friday evening before all the new shows started. Man those were the days.

And of course Scooby Doo was such a favorite from these earliest seasons to the Scooby Doo movies with guest stars like the Three Stooges, Laurel & Hardy, Don Knotts, Tim Conway, and so many others. That Was SO cool. This 4 DVD set gives you the 25 episodes from the first two seasons along with a host of DVD extras including new featurettes, Scooby fashions and more...Gosh it seems like yesterday when I was just 8 years old and watching these for the first time with all the great villians and mysterious places the gange visited. Here are some of my favorite episodes:

"What a night for a Knight" The episode that started it all! The gang investigates a museum and a ghostly black Knight.

"Mine your Own Business" The gang investigate a Ranch where the ghost of an old Miner is frightening the guests away. Featuring the classic Miner 49er villian!

"Foul Play in Funland" As the gang looks for clams on a beach, Daphne looks across the beach to the Funland amusement park. She comments about how spooky it looks as it is closed and if on cue, all the lights flick on and the rides begin to operate. One of my all-time favorites!

"Bedlam in the Big Top" Another all-time favorite featuring the ghostly clown who is haunting the circus and hypnotizing people with his "coin of gold"

"Go Away Ghost Ship" The Ghost of Redbeard is raiding ships and scooby and the Gange must solve the mystery as shag and Scooby are captured by the pirates.

"That's Snow Ghost" Scooby-Doo and the gange travel to the Wolf's End Lodge for a skiing trip where its proprietor, Mr. Greenway, warns them of a Snow Ghost who makes the ski trip a scare trip.

"Jeepers it's the Creeper" - The gang finds an unconscious bank guard who has been robbed by the mysterious Creeper who has been robbing the bank for years.

"Don't fool with the Phantom" - Shaggy and Scooby-Doo are upstaged by the sudden appearance of a glowing wax phantom during a TV appearance on The Johnny Sands Dance Game Show. After the phantom appears, the audience clears out, and the studio's safe is robbed and the station manager, Roger Stevens, taken hostage.

Wow...i just cannot believe how much I loved watching this. I have not seen most of these episodes in over 30 years. Just great nostalgic fun.
