HOW ABOUT A CHANGE OF CLOTHES?


Those characters have been wearing the same rags since 1969!
Wouldn't they be worn out and shredded by now?
Velma, in particular, is in need of a major makeover.

And I really hate the way WB redesigned Fred; his head looks like a shoebox with hair, and his snub nose is more befitting a baby than a grown man!

The only thing I like about this series (besides the much improved animation) is that Scooby Doo is more intelligent and is no longer a coward.
Too bad the same thing can't be said about Shaggy.

Their clothes have been changed from time to time. Shaggy's clothes changed once Daphne's did twice (heck even her hairstyle changed in the 80's). Fred's clothes changed in What's New Scooby Doo (goodbye ascot)! But can't go wrong with the classics. :D

I liked those coveralls Daphne wore in THE 13 GHOSTS OF SCOOBY DOO (although I can't say the same for the show itself).
They looked very comfortable and easy to move around it.
And she wore a very handsome suit in SCOOBY DOO ON ZOMBIE ISLAND.
And the gang all wore comfy hiking clothes in SCOOBY DOO AND THE SPACE ALIENS.

But in this series, they've regressed to those really awful clothes from the original show!
One would think that, being from a wealthy family, Daphne could afford a more varied wardrobe!

It's a time warp.

I would love to see a serious take on Scooby-Doo. And Shaggy be his butler.

you're an idiot, by changing the clothes you're altering the characters

like it or hate it they are old school characters, by removing them you kill the character, whats next? voice change of the iconic scooby-doo?? remove the scooby snacks?

you might aswell burn the storyboard room and write a new show

if you want a completely different show thats fine, but why watch this and complain about it?

as noted most 'revivals' update the costumes for the era

as for why everyone has only one Outfit (save for disguises) per series; that is a Production issue... It is much easier to Tell the color artists that

-- Shaggy has Green shirt and Brown Pants
-- Fred has a white shirt and Blue pants, with red/orange ascot
-- Daphne has pink leggings, purple dress, Green scarf
-- Velma is Orange sweater, brown skirt Orange Knee-socks

They changed in What's New Scooby Doo?

I was thinking they should use clothing designs from previous iterations of the show (What's New Scooby Doo? etc) and have them switch clothes between those. They should modernise it a bit too
