Sell me on this show. Haven't seen any episodes and from what I've read, this version of Scooby-Doo is more darker and edgier. What are your thoughts and do you like it or not.

Pretty good for a Scooby cartoon. It has an overarching as opposed to just being monster of the day all the time, and they do a better job of characterization than most Scooby cartoons. Also, the way they do the story of the day is pretty good, they do nods to previous series (such as having a Vincent Price style character), and I'm not going to speak too ill about a show that had Harlan Ellison at a guest star in an episode that had a Lovecraft monster.
As for being darker and edgier... not really? I mean, it does have a more serious tone in general, but it's still a Scooby cartoon, so there's always an inherent silliness to it. The characters are still pretty goofy, but they have their moments. And the monsters are still pretty goofy at the end, but you do have an intriguing overarching storyline. There's nothing gritty or edgy in it, just a little more serious than usual.
If you've never been a fan of Scooby Doo as a concept, you probably won't like it. But if you were a fan at some point, it's probably worth looking at.

I've never been a huge Scooby Doo fan (I'd watch if nothing better is on but always ehh) but I love this version. Its just written better in general. Its has Patrick Warburton in it who can't love that?
