Unless there's explicit contradictions, there's no reason to think of those episodes as non-canon. Also, as I think we've established, Scooby-Doo continuity is tenuous at best and what this site considers canon and non-can is somewhat arbitary anyway. Well, I tried to get you to think of Be Cool as standalone, but you're still just using previous stuff as your counterpoint.

Imagine if you will that Scooby-Doo never existed until Barry was hired to CREATE the show and write and structure everyone else episodes (as he was the story editor), then at the tail end, be forced off, because some other people were hired to write something that clearly contradicts what was previously established just to redevelop it as 2 11 minute segment show.
