Good news for Stooge completists, & bad news for anyone with good taste...

March 22, Warner Home Video is releasing THE NEW SCOOBY DOO MOVIES (1972 – 1973) to DVD.  Most likely due to rights issues with some guest stars, only 15 of the 24 episodes will be included in the set.

The press release lists the Three Stooges, so at least one of the two Stooge episodes ("Ghastly Ghost Town" and "Ghost of the Red Baron") will probably be included.  Norman Maurer was the storyman behind these two episodes.  The Stooges did not provide their own voices; that was done by Pat Harrington Jr. (Moe) and Joe Baker (Curly Joe and Larry).
