Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated: Season 1 – Episode 8: ‘The Grasp OfThe Gnome’ (2010) – TV Episode Review

Official Score = 2 Devils

You know, I have to admit that so far I have some pretty mixed feelings about: 'Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated'... I mean so far it does have some truly fun episodes... But like the first bunch of episodes that started out this season were really bad... But then the last episode was a total blast!

And now this next episode, 'The Grasp Of The Gnome'... Meh? Not great... But not the worst...

The Scooby Gang trying to find, 'Shaggy' in the latest episode of, 'Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated'!

Written by: Mitch Watson (Totally Spies), John P. McCann (Animaniacs) & Directed by: Victor Cook (21 Grams). Starring:  Starring: Frank Welker (The Real Ghostbusters), Mindy Cohn (Sex And Death 101), Grey DeLisle (Ultimate Avengers), Matthew Lillard (The Bridge), Patrick Warburton (Ted) & Gary Cole (The Town That Dreaded Sundown).

This story tells the tale of how while the gang is at a local medieval carnival, one of the carnivals patrons ends up getting attacked by a little, 'garden gnome' looking creature, and is paralyzed completely by this... Well of course it looks like a case for the, 'Scooby Gang' to find out who this paralyzing gnome is and stop him... And this time it's personal!

It looks like Shaggy & Scooby have fallen out of the case!

You see, the Gnome has taken Shaggy (Matthew Lillard) hostage, and it will be up to the Scooby Gang to rescue him before something dastardly happens!

Now the main reason why this episode is kind of bland... Well the basic story and what not is good, but the truth is, is the useless none-sense (like the, 'Mayor' and the 'Sheriff' hoping the bad guys will continue to commit crimes to profit the town,) is all back in it's dull ridiculous pattern...

In the end, if you are following the series, you should check this one out... It is not a bad episode, but there is not much point in watching this episode otherwise!
