Notes/trivia

  • TBA

Miscellaneous

  • Disguise tricks: Shaggy as Prince Hamlet from Hamlet; Scooby as Ophelia from Hamlet.
  • Scooby Snacks bribe: 0.
  • "Zoinks" count:
  • "Jeepers" count: 0.

Cultural references

  • The episode title is a play on the phrase, "To be or not to be" from Hamlet.
    • The culprit's names, "Rosey Crans" and "Gilly Stern" play off a famous pair of minor characters: Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.
    • Yorick is another character mentioned in the play. Hamlet finds the skull of his old jester, and says, "Alas, poor Yorick!"
  • Shaggy says "Exit, stage left," which is the catchphrase of Snagglepuss.

Animation mistakes and/or technical glitches

  • None known.

Inconsistencies/continuity errors and/or goofs/oddities

  • It goes back and forth between Hamlet being something of legend that actually happened to just a play. Hamlet would have to be real for anyone to believe that the Ghost of Hamlet could be real.
