Bride and Gloom originally ran on December 18, 1982 and is part of the 13th episode of the Scooby and Scrappy Doo Puppy Hour.

This is the final Yabba-Doo episode and it features Horrible Homer, a brut and menace who is trying to find a bride in Tumbleweed County

Bride and Gloom – Episode Review

The Episode begins on the roof of the Sheriff department where the gang have been remodeling the station. Unfortunately a boulder crashes down and collapses the building. Investigating the flying boulders, Dusty gets a threatening letter saying Horrible Homer is causing the landslides, and Horrible Homer demands all the eligible women in town to marry the man.

Homer the Horrible with townswomen

No women are up to the task at hand, so Yabba Doo dresses up as a woman named Yabba-Sue to marry the cave dwelling Horrible Homer. Yabba moves in and starts doing Homer’s laundry and cooking and we get our usual stream of gags and hijinks.

Finally, Homer is caught and handcuffed by Yabba, that is until Homer bites off his handcuffs.

In the end, however, Homer ends up meeting his match, a woman who orders him to fix things.

Like Red Green said, if the women don’t find you handsome, at least let them find you handy.

My Rating

threeI give this episode a 3 out of 10

Thank goodness this is the last Yabba Doo episode. I just don’t think my sanity could take any more of this. Sure, this is funny, but when I sit down to watch Scooby-Doo, I want something spooky.
