Scooby-Doo! – Watch Out! The Willawaw!
- Title: Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! – Watch Out! The Willawaw!
- wiki: link
Flashback Friday takes us back to Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! for another mystery involving some meddling kids and their talking dog. The first episode of the show’s Third Season, “Watch Out! The Willawaw!” isn’t the strongest episode of the series. Gone is the music montage and the multi-door hallway gag. The creature is also a bit disappointing in a giant glowing owl (complimented by two cohorts in full-sized owl costumes) that lacks the pop of several other mystery monsters the group comes upon. We do get a trap that works as planned, a rarity in the series, except that it traps Shaggy (Casey Kasem) and Scooby-Doo (Don Messick) rather than the villains leading to a twist on the show’s unmasking sequence.

Alert: Missing Persons Unit – Chloe

The first episode of Alert: Missing Persons Unit introduces us to Jason Grant (Scott Caan) and Nikki Parker (Dania Ramirez) whose marriage implodes after the disappearance of their son. Years later, with Nikki working for the Missing Person’s Unit in Philadelphia, she brings Scott in on an unusual case where terrorists have abducted the daughter of an agent of the CIA. The event coincides with the first picture of what appears to be Jason and Nikki’s son which makes up the other storyline of the episode, eventually reuniting them with a young man who is accepted as, but may not in fact be, their son.

Star Wars: The Bad Batch – The Solitary Clone
- Title: Star Wars: The Bad Batch – The Solitary Clone
- IMDb: link
Feeling more like an episode of The Clone Wars than The Bad Batch, we’re given an episode to catch-up on Crosshair (Dee Bradley Baker) who is sent on a mission with Cody (Baker) and other Clones for the Empire needing to squash a Separtist uprising on Desix. Along with offering a check-in with the black sheep of the Bad Batch, the episode also offers an example of how the Empire put the Clones to work after taking power and how similar their missions were… with a few key differences. It’s a fine episode that just feels out of place as the season is still trying to setting the status quo for characters not even referred to here. The episode ends with Cody apparently deserting after being unable to execute an order, but the more effective outcome would have the Empire killing him offering another lesson to Crosshair of their brutality.
