The Flash ruins the gang's mystery solving fun.

Thoughts, Details and Recap

Scooby and Shaggy need to run out on dinner with their friend Barry Allen to solve a mystery. He decides to help the guys by solving the mysteries for them so they can get back to dinner. He makes sure they capture Miner Forty-Niner in record time. This makes it clear the episode is going to be cameos from historical villains while Flash steals all of the mysteries from the gang so Shaggy and Scooby will eat with him.

Flash keeps solving them and annoying the gang while a mystery figure looks on from very conveniently placed closed circuit cameras. The fact that they gang doesn't figure it out is even more ridiculous than Lois Lane not recognizing Superman is Clark Kent. 

At the Creeper mystery, they ask Flash to solve the mystery their way. It doesn't go great. But he means well and everyone recognizes that.

The way this episode unfolds it feels like the gang is living in one of those meta television worlds where they solve the same mysteries over and over until an outsider comes in and changes the way the story plays out like Pleasantville or The Final Girls.

At the end of the Creeper story, after Flash takes Scooby and Shaggy to Madrid, a giant teddy bear captures the gang. The gang is all tied up with teddy bear bombs. Shaggy and Scooby distracts the giant teddy bear while Flash eats Scooby Snacks then saves everyone from the bombs. 

There's a really good Mark Hamill joke. The teddy bear is the Trickster and he also has a joker mask on underneath. Mark Hamill has voiced both characters in DCAU projects.

I was very happy to see the Charlie the Robot in prison. I don't like robots.

Mark Hamill is the most frequent guest in this series. I would like to hear more of him. It would be cool for the show to reimagine Jeannie and Corey Anders. Jeannie was a one season cartoon from 1973 with Mark Hamill voicing the character of Corey Anders. He guested as Corey Anders in one episode of the New Scooby-Doo Movies.
