...that Brian's version was more of an 'origin' kind of thing - how the gang met, how they got the Mystery Machine, why Shaggy's so fucked up, why a dog can talk etc. but still had the mystery elements of the original as well. Sounds a helluva lot better than what they've got planned, but hey...
That's life! That's what all the people say... you're riding high in April... shot down in May (and I don't know the rest of the words, so just hum along with me if you know the tune).
