• Episode 1:
  • Everything about Fred's ridiculously complex trap, from the fact that he does absolutely nothing while it's happening to the spectacular failure it produces. In fact, most of the self-parody in the show is brilliantly handled.
  • This exchange with the villain.

Daphne: But you already have a job as a teacher, why would you need more money? Raffalow: *stares back at them* Everyone: Oh right... haha... my bad.

• • One thing I love is Velma's deadpan, unenthusiastic droning while she work as the "Ghoulish Guide" for the Crystal Cove Haunted Tour while everyone there reacts to what she says with intrigue and horror about the legends. She clearly hates her job and snarks at every opportunity, even once pulling out a tape recorder that makes a screaming sound with the most unenthusiastic expression possible while everyone else reacts with horror. One particularly great scene is:

Velma: The first documented case of the Curse of Crystal Cove is from 1630, when a garrison of Spanish conquistadors mysteriously vanished from the harbor. Customer: Oh that is so scary! Where did they go? Velma: What part of the word mystery didn't you understand?

• Episode 2:
  • The increasingly ridiculous but apparently completely true montage about Gatorburg's "gator mining" economy. Ending a gator oil well, spewing out hundreds of alligators into the sky like oil.
  • Daphne discovering Fred's swimsuit edition of Traps Illustrated.

Daphne: Freddy! Fred: I Read It for the Articles!

• • Greta citing the hotel's rules:

Greta: I got a few hotel rules. Rule #1: boys and girls in separate rooms. No exceptions! Velma: Then I guess I'm with you, Daphne. Greta: I SAID, NO EXCEPTIONS! Velma: But I'm a girl. Greta: Oh... right.

• Episode 3:
  • The Xerox machine exploding toner everywhere.
  • Fred Senior is caught in one of Fred's traps hanging upside over a Shark Pool.

Why would a ghost drive a truck, when they could so obviously fly? You kids are letting your imaginations run away with yourselves!

• • Daphne continuing her mother's boys/food metaphor:

Daphne: But I don't even like meat, I like vegetables *dreamy expression* like Fred.(which, considering Fred's level of intellect in this series, is oddly appropriate)

• Episode 4:
  • Fred putting the 8-track cartridge on the turntable.

Fred: Why isn't this working!?

• • Fred trying to comfort Daphne by promising her that he'll never have a feeling again.
  • Skipper Shelton's exchange with Scooby:

Skipper: Almost doesn't shuck the clam. Does it, Wolfie? He and Scooby share a long laugh* Scooby: I have no idea what you're talking about.

• • At one point in the episode, a random seagull is pulled under the sand by the Man-Crab. Later in the episode they find the cage where everyone the Man-Crab had captured is, even the random seagull was in there.
• Episode 5:
  • Shaggy's wrist rubber band.
  • "Easy there, Daphne! Remember, we're married. Try not to look so happy!" This may explain why we have yet to see Fred's mom in the series.
    • Oh this so does, and it isn't pretty. Mayor Jones told Fred that his mom left him while he was a baby...but then we find out Mayor Jones STOLE Fred from his real parents making this Harsher in Hindsight.
  • The villain at the end explaining how she convinced every kid in town to play along with her scheme:

Que Horrifico: I offered them utopia! (Beat) When that didn't work I offered them candy.

• Episode 6: As Ghost Girl attacks the high school prom.

Shaggy: Like, wow! I didn't know this year's theme was terror and pandemonium! Velma: What's going on? Random Kid: Somebody's mom is trying to kill Fred.

• • for some reason, the way Shaggy has to calm down velma by saying, "Stop breaking the cemetery!" is pretty funny.
• Episode 7:
  • Scooby introducing his new best friend - Shaggy's old puppet.
  • Shaggy fighting with "Harry".

Shaggy: *stops in mid-scuffle* Wait a minute... what am I doing?! You're just a puppet! You can't hurt me!

• • Scooby comforting Fred after his breakdown.

Scooby: *singing* Freddy, you're a special boy.

• Episode 9:
  • After Mr. E gives his clue to the gang:

Scooby: Rat's Rit? Mr. E: Yes, "Rat's Rit".

• Episode 10:
  • Velma's attempted alteration of then-absent Scooby's iconic catch phrase:

Velma: Relma Delma Doo! Fred, Daphne and Shaggy: Uhh...

• Episode 11:
  • Fred tries to weaponize Velma's complexion against a vampire.

Fred: Quick, Velma, set your milky whiteness for STUN!

• • Also, the "Oui, Oui" act.
• Episode 14:

Captain Caveman: Captain Caveman no read Moderning symbols. Moderning symbols mock Captain Caveman.

• • "We have to drown something so I can bring it back to life again!"
• Episode 15:
  • Fred passing out after Daphne said she went camping with the Wild Brood.

Scooby: Man down!

• • The clue from Mr. E: *cue dancing swordfish*

Shaggy (after Fred kept thinking it was a bug): Fred, even I can tell that's a fish.

• • The last line of the episode:

Fred: She digs ME. She. Digs. ME. SHE DIGS ME!!!

• Episode 16:

Mayor Jones: Fred, your not feeling the love anymore? Now I'm gonna have to let out an unearthly howl and.. destroy you. RRRRRHHHH!

• Episode 18:

Mayor Jones:(sees the White Wizard caught in the trap) Fred why do you have a geisha tied up in here? You know they belong downtown in our geisha house of terror.

• Episode 19:
  • Pretty much everything that comes out of Vincent Van Ghoul's mouth is either this or awesome.

Van Ghoul: It's a secret passage. I had it built so I could scare my guests...and get to the kitchen faster.

• Episode 20:
  • When Daphne sees the statue of Scrappy Doo in the Mystery Museum, Fred reminds her that they swore they would never speak of HIM ever again!
  • What may be a Take That against the more hypocritical type of environmental activists.
  • "Sometimes you have to KILL the environment in order to protect it!"
    • "-Uh....no. I don't think that's right..."
• Episode 24:
  • The Piranha Goat.
  • Sheriff Stone in a dress.
  • The Night Ranger in general but especially the shirtless scene and everyone's disgust towards it.
  • When Deputy Bucky breaks down and cries:

Fred: Just back away slowly.

• • Sheriff Stone's Paper-Thin Disguise as Bag Head.
• Episode 25:
  • Shaggy's Lampshade Hanging on the Obliteratrix's use of Hammerspace.

Shaggy: Like, where does she keep getting these weapons? That outfit has no pockets!

• • Everything about "Dusk" (a Twilight Expy) and it's author. From an English professor (Hatecraft, an Ensemble Darkhorse) despairing over how physically attractive guys and romance are now "what matters" in literature to the Stephanie Meyer Expy's entire characterization. Methinks there are members of the Twilight Hatedom on the Mystery Incorporated staff.
    • YMMV, but also the parody of how a lot of universities today are there to make money and not educate people, as shown with the dean.
• Continuing form episode 25 having everything about "Dusk" being funny, in the first episode of season 2 the Dusk actor "Baylor Hotner," who couldn't be a more blatant Taylor Lautner Expy if he tried is here as Daphne's perfect boyfriend and the star of a few shirtless scenes including a commercial for jeans.
  • So the writers clearly have a fondness for twilight jokes at this point.
  • Also from that episode, Scooby get all the information he needs to find the others, and right after that, he say, "Got any Scooby Snacks?"
  • Why do you look like a hobo?
