Los Angeles March 9 (IANS) The "Supernatural" team is set to meet the Mystery Gang of "Scooby-Doo" in "Scoobynatural" but it won t be a regular Scooby-Doo cartoon.
The "Supernatural"/"Scooby-Doo" crossover starts with Dean (Jensen Ackles) wrestling a stuffed dinosaur that s come to life.
After a case-of-the-week puts Dean in a wrestling match with the live plushy a grateful pawnshop owner offers Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean a free TV to say thanks.
Sam s not too keen on the idea but Dean takes the TV back to the bunker to create his "Dean Cave". Only everything s not as it seems with the present. They get sucked into a Scooby-Doo cartoon.
"Once they get over their amazement at being in the cartoon two things happen " co-showrunner Robert Singer told ew.com.
"They say We have been in a situation like this before with the Trickster and I think we are supposed to play this out. And then they realise they are in a Scooby-Doo cartoon which makes Dean incredibly excited because Scooby-Doo was his favourite cartoon growing up."
In fact Dean s extensive Scooby knowledge will come in handy rather quickly when he recognises the episode they are in (which is based on the 1970 "Scooby-Doo Where Are You!" episode "A Night of Fright Is No Delight").
But this episode isn t exactly a repeat.
This time there s a "Supernatural" level monster at work and as co-showrunner Andrew Dabb puts it: "It gets pretty dark."
Singer added: "There are things you wouldn t see in a regular Scooby-Doo cartoon."
In other words the monster won t be a man in a mask.
"They walk into an old episode of Scooby-Doo. But it may end up being a new episode of Supernatural " explained Dabb.
In one of the shots obtained by ew.com Dean is seen holding hands with Daphne.
"Dean came of age in a time before the internet when Daphne wasn t so bad " Dabb said.
"Dean has very strong opinions on all the Scooby characters but especially Daphne and Fred."
