Memorable quotes

Fred: Hold the phone!
Mystery Inc.: It's famous actor, writer, director, producer, Steve Buscemi!

Nana: This is my favorite photo of my Steve. It's from his movie Nice Guys of Baltimore. He played such a good boy!
Daphne: I don't remember that movie, and I thought I'd seen all your films!
Steve: Yeah, that one, um, didn't do so well at the box office. I think maybe I was too nice. Is that a thing? Too nice?
Fred: Gosh, don't look at me, Mr. Buscemi. There's no such thing as too nice in my phonebook. You know what I'm saying?
Steve: Uh, no, Fred, I'm sorry, I really don't.

Nana: And I would never have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for you meddling kids.
Velma: Um...You're welcome.

Behind the scenes

• With every episode's title card, one of the gang announces the guest star, which is Shaggy this time.
• How many times does Fred say "Hold the phone?" Once.
• How many times does Velma say "Jinkies?" Once.
• How many times does Daphne say "Jeepers?" Once.
• How many times does Shaggy say "Zoinks?" Once.
• Daphne reveals she's seen all of Steve Buscemi movies, so apparently even the R-rated ones that the intended target audience (hopefully) wouldn't have watched themselves?

Errors

• In the credits, there's a comma following Scooby-Doo, but there is no other role included after him.
• Grey Griffin and Matthew Lillard are credited for voicing a photo journalist and a parking attendant, respectively. Only, when exactly do they appear?
