Mystery Inc. was incredible. I will never forget the season 2 premiere where Fred grows a beard and goes crazy.

Scooby-Doo was always a lame show, even by normal repetitive cartoon standards.

Lol the new scooby series looks like it was made with GOAnimate!
I originally posted this in a thread about The Looney Tunes Show, but I guess that it's more fitting here:
So there's a very short clip of this new Looney Tunes show called Wabbit that'll be more focused on slapstick humor in this Boomerang commercial. It's about 19 seconds in: https://www.dropbox.com/s/io0jzs7nrcbu04m/Boomerang2015Preview.avi?dl=0
It's just a few seconds, but that small bit already shows that the animation is a lot better than in The Looney Tunes Show. It's a lot more stretchy and smooth, while still not just relying on tweens to do so. It's the kind of stretchy animation where if you pause at the right moment it looks like this (which isn't a bad thing):
Not entirely sold on the style, but I'll have to see more of it to judge that. At they very least they didn't really change Bugs Bunny's design aside from him being drawn in a different style. Also I find it interesting that the style has changed a lot since the original teaser poster in the OP.
Also there's a clip of the new Scooby Doo show in there, but that has its own separate thread now.

I don't like how stiff they look, but that art style works really well. I love when people make sparing use of black contours. For an obviously low-budget show, it looks like it could be good.

Poor kids 
Hopefully Youtube teaches them the right path.
Even when I was little in the 90s I realised the new Tom & Jerrys of my era sucked compared to the classics.

Someone at work told me Young Justice was coming back for a season 3 eventually. Tell me it's true. Someone... please
Its true.
Its not.

What the mother of fuck is this shit.
Mistery Inc was done by people who understanded the old show and you knew their appreciation for it, and they elevated it to new heights anc created a damn good animated series.
This piece of trash seems to be done by people who only know scooby doo for "hur dur, scooby snacks, shaggy is a stoner, hur dur the group running through corridors with hippie music in the background"
The designs are garbage. It looks like some webcomic shit.
Let's hope so

Tom & Jerry Kids was just about the worst thing ever.
Well, maybe besides that god-awful 70's Tom & Jerry show where they had to be nice to each other and shit. Because fuck that noise.

I just wish they'd keep releasing the restored classic Tom and Jerry on bluray. They stopped after one volume.

Gross new Scooby Doo design. Also can't believe that cancelled Looney Tunes Show. What the hell WB?

No idea about that 70s show, but the Kids show was so bad. The film was strange as well, fully voiced Tom and Jerry. Wut.
Wow I didn't know they even had any on Blu-Ray. Is it a good restoration? Clean picture?
I love these designs.
What the?! Was this new cartoon made in GoAnimate?

Oh god what did they do to my Wifu Velma...

There's a reason this was one of the only Hanna-Barbera cartoons they rarely ever played on Cartoon Network. Just remember, kids - no matter how much cartoons suck today, they'll never be as bad as they were in the 70's.

Ugh, just read some opions of the test footage (its erased from youtube already) and they all say its horrible and its only a bunch of long gags with Seth McFarlane type of humour.
I hate to be already so right by only seeing character designs:

Watching some new Tom and jerry footage, they seem to have the heart on their right place, but T&J needs seriously good animation for the slapstick to work and it all crumbles because its cheaply and stiff flash type animation. Even the character designs aren't bad at all.

I have a theory that its in Cartoon network's contract that they have to have a tom and jerry show on the air as long as the network exist's.

It sounds like Wabbit isn't going to be much like The Looney Tunes Show though. Apparently they're trying to make the humor more like the classic shorts, unlike The Looney Tunes Show which tried to be more like a sitcom.

Mystery Incorporated was not cancelled.
It was always planned as a 2 season and done series from the initial pitch.
CN just completely screwed it over when it came to actually scheduling and airing it.
Don't know about Mystery Inc, but ratings for The Looney Tunes Show were really good actually, it's just that the show was always intended to last 52 episodes (which it did over the course of two seasons). In that sense I imagine the biggest purpose of the show was to bring the LTs to a modern young audience.
EDIT: Just saw the previous post, interesting WB had the exact same approach for that show as well. Least it got an ending.

That Scooby artstyle looks like johnny test
I haven't seen any video from the new Scooby-Doo cartoon, so i can't really judge. I only know that, people can be unfair to some shows because of an art style. People still dismiss Teen Titans Go chibi style and comedy route for "replacing" Young Justice. And I'm pretty sure much of the hatred for this Scooby Doo is because of "replacing" Mystery Incorporated, even though MY ended full realized.
I do rather wait and watch the new show before judging it. I still remember the shitstorm Transformers Animated got for it's artstyle before people actually watched it and realized they got a top tier Transformers show.

Tom and Jerry reruns did very well on Cartoon Network for years. That's why there were new direct-to-DVD Tom and Jerry movies every year back to back for like a decade.
Edit: I just checked and apparently they're still being made; the last one was released last year.
