[ID: An edited video clip from Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, first showing Fred standing on a dark street under a street lamp as he says determinedly to himself:
"I'm tired of being afraid. I have feelings, world, for traps, and Daphne! I'm a guy no more."
As Fred says, "Guy no more", the nonbinary flag fades in and out across the screen, with stripes of yellow, white, purple, and black.
Fred runs off, and the scene changes so he is talking to Daphne, saying seriously:
"I need to tell you something, and I need you to listen." He puts his hands on Daphne's shoulders and says happily, "I'm not a guy anymore."
Daphne asks, confused, "What?"
The scene changes again, with Fred looking sad, saying,
"But I'm also not gonna hide the fact that I have feelings for traps, and you."
Daphne smiles at Fred as he continues:
"Call me a non-man if you want." while the nonbinary flag fades in and out again. Fred looks away, and continues, "A caring…un-guy?" The flag fades in and out again. "Whatever the street slang is." The definition of Nonbinary fades in, reading:
"Nonbinary:

adjective: non-binary; adjective: nonbinary
1. not relating to, composed of, or involving just two things. "Aristotelian ontology is nonbinary on the second level in that it allows for degrees of being"
2. denoting, having, or relating to a gender identity that does not conform to traditional binary beliefs about gender, which indicate that all individuals are exclusively either male or female. "the novelist identifies as nonbinary""

columbo teaming up with any detective is fun but the issue is that the one constant of columbo is that he basically knows the killer before he even arrives, so the mystery is less whodunnit and more about how columbo is going to catch this dude in his lie. therefore I propose the best columbo x detective crossover is not in fact columbo and benoit blanc or sherlock but in fact Columbo and the Scooby Doo Gang. In this essay i w-
You know, when Scooby Doo fans say they want a more “mature” or “adult” Scooby Doo show, we usually mean something along the lines of Zombie Island or Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated; a Scooby show that takes itself seriously with a more mature plotline and well-written character development for each member of the gang. Not gory violence, nudity, and adult jokes that don’t land.
(I haven’t even seen the new Velma show, just clips and screenshots, and I have a lot of thoughts).
