Official Score = 3 Devils[/caption]Scooby-Doo... What can I say about the show? I mean to be absolutely honest with you, I used to watch this show pretty religiously back in the late 80s when it used to be apart of the Saturday morning cartoon lineup... Since then I have always been a fan of the series, and I maybe always will be!
With that said, I have to admit that from time to time I am guilty of some times judging a book by it's cover... I try not to do this, it is a bad habit... I mean some times you do end up loosing out on some of life's great points...
The reason that I mention all of this is the fact that I have done that very thing recently with the latest reincarnation of the classic Scooby-Doo cartoon series called: 'Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated'... What I mean is that I have been going through the series, and one right after the other I have found that the series had just gotten progressively worse and worse (we had a small reprieve with episode 5, but still...)
Recently though I tuned in to watch the next episode in the series, and I have to say that Episode 6: 'The Legend Of Alice May' (2010) was just great!
I mean don't get me wrong, this episode does have scary elements to it, but it is that toned down horror that makes it acceptable for children to watch, but still it was a truly fun episode!

The new girl is about to introduce herself to the rest of the student body![/caption]What I mean by this is that this episode tells of how prom is coming up for Crystal Cove... Which of course is the perfect time for some spooky haunted goodness to show up...
During this time, the city government has become aware that a, 'Phantom Girl' has been taking wayward teenage boys, and they are never seen again. Well during this time a new student by the name of, 'Alice May' (Hyden Walch) comes to town and immediately Fred (Frank Welker), who up to this point has not only not been interested in Daphne (Grey DeLisle) who has been chasing after him vigorously, but as far as humans go, only seemed to show a very minor friendship vibe with them (with the exception of Shaggy (Matthew Lillard) for some reason...)
Fred actually shows strong interest in the new girl, and it will be up to Daphne and the remainder of the gang to discover the deep dark secret that this new girl is harboring and who this, 'Phantom Girl' is... Before the prom is ruined for all of them!
In the end, this episode truly is a breathe of fresh air, what with all the none-sense that made this episode so horrible being toned down to almost nothing!
In the end, this episode is a surprising turn of events, and was actually really quite fun, and take it from me, some one who up to this point has not been a fan of the series... give this one a try , you might like it... I did!
