Out of boredom, I checked out the Crystal Cove online game on Cartoon Network's website. And, believe it or not, the story in the game is FAR better than the story in the show! And the romance angle is limited to mild flirtatious dialogue between characters. Which means we get to see MI-Shaggy and MI-Velma act like a couple without the added melodrama of Scooby/Velma hatred, the messy break up, or Velma acting like a bunny-boiler. It's glorious!

OVERALL
If you've ever wondered what this show would be like if only it didn't botch the romance angle, this game is for you! The only downside is that you'll feel sad that the actual show wasn't just as light-hearted and fun.

If you want to try it for yourself, here's a link to it!

This chapter is a re-imaging of a scene in the American television series, "Freaks and Geeks" with Shaggy as Nick (Jason Segal), the kind stoner, and Velma as Lindsay (Linda Cardellini*), the academic. *Yes, the same Linda Cardellini!
