New Scooby-Doo Movie Glitches -- Frickert Fracas

When Scooby and the gang meet Jonathan Winters, hilarity ensues, plus these glitches:

Shaggy asks, "Did he say 4 AM?" Actually, it was Maude who said that.

Does Simon Shakey stand around in the field as the scarecrow all day? That doesn't seem like a very good way to search for the formula, or to run a bank.

There's no reason for the scarecrow to duck down behind Freddy and Maude and reappear behind Daphne and Velma. In fact, it gives him away.

Disney Afternoon DVDs -- Where's the Rest of the Story?

Last week, I promised you three Disney TV shows that got cheated on DVD. Although they had DVD releases, the full series was not included. Each of these gems has episodes missing, a disgraceful treatment of both the series and the fans.

Darkwing Duck

The Terror that Flaps in the Night, DW is a feathered super-hero bedeviled by cool villains and his own ego.

Kim Possible

Teenage cheerleader turned crime-fighter Kim Possible travels the world to foil the baddies and still manages to keep her grades up.

Adventures of the Gummi Bears

This show gets the worst treatment of all, with only one volume of cartoons available instead of two. There are a lot more adventures in Gummi Glen for fans to enjoy, if only Disey would cooperate.

We should also mention Chip 'n' Dale's Rescue Rangers, which, although recently granted a complete series release, is limited to Blu-Ray only, a cheesy way of dissing fans with only a standard DVD player. But, it's better than nothing.

The New Scooby-Doo Movies Glitches -- Davy Jones

New glitches added for The Haunted Horseman of Hagglethorn Hall, the episode in which the gang meets Davy Jones. Here's a sample:

There's another door in the room in which the guys have barricaded themselves. They might at least try it before moving all that furniture.

The background is stone in a wood-paneled room.

The hinges are on the wrong side of the door.

That room looks smaller when Creech peeks in, too small for a horse, even a projection of a horse, to gallop around in.

See all the glitches.

Review: Vizio TV

I bought a Vizio TV in February from Wal-Mart, model #D24h-J09, serial #LINID2MX44414341. Just a small one to fit into a small space and watch while on the treadmill. At first, it worked well enough for both streaming and the DVD and VCR I hooked up. After a few months, things began to happen, namely:

It would update automatically, right in the middle of the program I was watching. And you couldn't watch during the update, unless you enjoy looking at a generic screen telling you there's an update in progress.

After every update, the on-screen controls were in a different place, often hidden in a drop-down menu, forcing me to click on everything until I found what I needed.

As the updates continued, they stopped interrupting my viewing, but started deleting channels. I had to run through the Add Channels function after every update.

In November, after 9 months of ownership, the channels could no longer be added. They registered as available, but the Add Channels function no longer accomplished anything. The streaming still works, but the DVD and satellite can not be viewed.

Three years later, the TV began to turn itself off at random intervals. Sometimes during a movie, sometimes on the welcome screen, sometimes on the menu. It just shut off, just like that.

After a month or so of this, the picture went wonky. That's the only way I can think of to describe it. Everything that was supposed to be black turned white, and everything else had a hazy purple shadow on one side. It was totally unwatchable. This lasted for three days before reverting to normal.

I still have the Vizio, so the saga continues. I can't even guess what will go wrong next, but you will not be surprised to hear that I will never again buy a Vizio device.

More Glitches from The New Scooby-Doo Movies

Here are more mistakes from the New Scooby-Doo Movies episode "Wednesday Is Missing," featuring the Addams Family:

There's no way Shaggy's candle can throw a shadow of itself on the wall.

The back of Morticia's neck turns black for a second.

Gomez and Morticia say they'll be on vacation for a few days. But in all that time, nobody goes to sleep. No wonder Shaggy's so tired throughout the episode!

More Scooby Glitches!

New Scooby-Doo Movies Glitches -- The Exterminator (Don Adams)

We found even more bloopers from this episode of The New Scooby-Doo Movies. Here's a sample:

None of the bugs Don sprays actually die, they just fly away. His chemicals must be as ineffectual as he is.

Shaggy can't decide whether to enter the corridor or go back to the hallway. Aren't they the same thing?

Freddy's eyes actually pop right out of his head for a second.

Scooby-Doo Meets the Three Stooges Glitches

Lots of new glitches added to The New Scooby-Doo Movies episode Ghastly Ghost Town, guest-starring The Three Stooges. Take a look at these:

Curly doesn't move his lips to speak. Later, Shaggy does the same thing.

Freddy's eyebrows disappear.

Shaggy is so worried about rescuing Velma and the Stooges, he forgets all about Freddy and Daphne.

Moe has no pockets.

Not only Crunch, Rhino, and the Stooges, but also the whole gang have been exposed to dangerous radiation. And the sheriff lets Shaggy take a sample of uranium home to contaminate other innocents. See more glitches

More Scooby-Doo Movies Glitches: Sandy Duncan

There are more mistakes abroad when Scooby-Doo meets Sandy Duncan, like these:

We can see the phantom through the hedge, which could make sense, as it's just a prop. But Scooby's not visible behind the same hedge.

We know that can't be a coin slot in an Egyptian sarcophagus, not even in a phony prop; but then, what is it?

You might have to freeze-frame on the dog sled to see this: Velma sits down in an impossible pose in relation to the side rails, so that she's between the rails and behind those on the far side at the same time, kind of like an M.C. Escher print. Then the side rails disappear altogether, probably because the animator got so confused he just left them out. More glitches...

More Scooby-Doo Glitches: Mine Your Own Business

Can you believe there are even more glitches in the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You? episode Mine Your Own Business? Here's a sample:

Just who, or what, is peeking at Scooby through the keyhole? It can't be Hank.

Shaggy opens one side of the swinging saloon door, and the other opens by itself.

Nobody sees the Miner push two mugs over to Shaggy and Scooby, but he must be standing right there.

New Scooby-Doo Movies Glitches -- Jeannie

Far from the best episode of this series, but it does have some interesting glitches. Such as:

Daphne points out the driver's side window at the motorcycle. A second later, everybody looks out the passenger window at it.

Why does Freddy say, "Oh, no!" when he spots Jeannie? Has he got something against her?

The Mystery Machine is a van, not a truck.

When he starts swimming, Shaggy is wearing long sleeves.

Why does Babu think the bedouin is a ghost? It could be just a guy.
