- Velma, written by Mindy Kaling and released on HBO, may be one of the worst shows I've ever seen. Join me as I break it down.

If you look at Mindy Kaling's background: rich family, privledged background, ivy league education, no part-time jobs, handed her only jobs in Hollywood out of uni. You realise she has a lot more in common with her version of Freddy than Velma.
🔥
Oof that's a stinger
Noooooo she’s brown!! It’s IMPOSSIBLE for her to be pRivLEgEd!!
Sounds like a hypocrite
@@HotelBravo556 doesn't matter if she's ethnic, she's still a woman.
I'll never forget the lesson that Scooby-Doo taught me, the real monsters are people that do bad things
100,000% TRUE!!
It's slightly depressing that a single sentence I read in the comments section is more insightful and meaningful than entire shows written by self-proclaimed "enlightened minds" manage...
It taught me that every mystery ever solved turned out o be not supernatural. Do with that what you will.
THANK YOU
Like Mindy Kaling.

It’s not Velma, it’s the Mindy “I got mercilessly picked on by all the means girls in school and now I’m a spiteful and vindictive cow with issues” Kaling show.
exactly
😂😂😂 So true!!
FACT!!
A lot of great writers had tragic, painful lives full of bullying, harassment and abuse.
Mindy Kaling is not one of them.
So she is the exact thing that got her bullied in the first place.
You have to have a lot of hate in your heart to want to destroy something as innocent as Scooby Doo.
One thing each of the characters in the original had in common is that they were ultimately kind hearted kids. Making Fred in to a psycho spoiled brat? I mean come on! These creators are as the drinker said, just simply mean spirited and seek to shit on anything good.

Glad you've been cured, ol' chum.

Why'd you turn it on in the first place?
Maybe that's why they made it?
@@trynatakeitallin I didn't
Let's be honest here, they totally changed her skin colour just to piss off fans and get a reaction so they can virtue signal against the so called "toxic fanbase" again.
I mean, when did they didn`t do so?
Aye seems like a case of: even bad news is good news because we'll...its being talked about
maybe. but the other thing is that "velma" is a self insert character for mindy.... who is an egotistical bitch.
also a conservative trust fund baby- so i genuinely don't even know who the fuck this show was for besides mindy herself.
But they didn't just race swap them, they gave them horrific stereotyping and made the only white guy an asshole
That's the recipe. The best course of action is to simply ignore them and cut off every form of communication with them.
Looking back, I was bummed that Scooby Doo wasn’t in the show, but in hindsight, that was probably a good thing… Heaven knows what they would’ve done to him in a show like this 😰
If he was in this, he'd probably have a deep, monotone voice and say stuff like "I don't laugh at funny stuff"
Lesbian dog romance
Make him a white dog
Scooby Doo would have been a gay polar bear. With an obnoxious rainbow flag scarf tied around his neck.
@@KneelB4Bacon at least that would be confusing, a more pleasant feeling than disgust or disappointment.
The game plan of these "modern" writers seems to be "I am going to insult you, the viewer for not wanting to drink my piss water"
Velma is a great example at showing us why we can never lower our standards, because no matter how low they are the writers can always go lower

@Confessions Of A Movie Freak Some random professional victim :
*"Bet."*
There once was a myth about how the Babylonians wanted to build a tower that reached the heavens. It wasn't allowed, so the wise people of today decided that there was no rule against digging a hole deep enough to reach Hell.
Heaven and Hell are real... Is your heart right with God? We can not hide our sins from God. Jesus Christ loves you and He died for our sins. If you will REPENT of your sins and put your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you will be saved and your name will be written into the Book of Life.
Revelation 20:15 Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.
"Salvation Prayer"
Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you, to confess that I am a sinner. I have done some things in my life that I am not proud of and I repent of my sins. I believe that Jesus died on the cross for my sins and that He arose from the grave and that He is alive today. I ask that you forgive me of my sins and come into my heart... I proclaim that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. AMEN...

@Anyway, Who Cares? They're OC's poorly disguised as Scooby Doo characters.
Even wokes hate this show with passion since it's so tone deaf and reflected the worst from them.
And when I thought warhammer(both fantasy and 40k) is the most hate filled, Grimdark, oppressive, maliciously mean spirited and vile venomous piece of fiction mankind can concocted into the paragon of how worse thing can get. Velma took the cake when it come to monstrously active mockery, being hostile and mean spirited
I don't hate it. It seemed ok. All tv series are some short of time-killing crap either way and always were.
Some people have a problem because a group they don't like are now able to produce their own crap.
Very insightful of you to point out how the original show taught kids that people who were very different could work together and needed each other, while this “diverse” and “progressive” update basically teaches viewers to resent (Fred & Daphne) or exploit (Norville) anyone of a different racial or social group.
Really? Watching scooby as a kid all I thought was...cool, fun talking dog and friends...no one wants to learn things.
@@Ch50304 Of course I didn’t think of that while watching as a kid, that’s why I said it was insightful of Critical Drinker to notice.
@@fromthecheapseats7126 Yes, not insightful...just adding meaning. It was just a bunch of friends enjoying mysteries we don't need additional meaning.
“Now allow me to transport you into the horrifying nightmare that is modern entertainment!”
Saddest truth ever! 😢
The hate this show is getting is so satisfying
I know by the fact that any Scooby Doo stuff whether it's sequels or spin off could never work without Scooby Doo in it but I'm glad he's not even in this series. Imagine what the writers could've do to Scooby Doo if he was here 💀

No one really like It
No one person
feels good man. The producers thought there will be controversy, but will help them make the show popular. But they didn't expect this kind of backlash LMAO. totally deserved
Imagine mindy kahling .... I bet you no one is telling her the truth and she is celebrating
I miss the days when shows were mostly an escape from the real world and not a distasteful reminder of it
So do you not like being reminded that there are minorities and women in the world? Because that's pretty much what your comment is insinuating.... Sounds a little racist and misogynistic
Underrated comment. 👍
👍
You just need to pick the right stuff, it’s like the music industry, yes we live in a time where people without any musical knowledge or skill on any instrument at all can go number one on the charts and pop music is and has been for the last few decades 99% pure trash, but we also live in times where more people than ever could do music at home without many hurdles and while most of it isn’t noteworthy the amount of great stuff hidden in the haybail is bigger than it ever was, it’s just that the pile of trash surrounding it gives the subjective feeling of seeing only shit being produced
The same goes for almost all forms of art, literature, etc
It’s definitely harder than ever before to find gold in the pile of shit than it ever was but there is also more gold to be found , keep on searching mate and don’t let these Tards ruin your enjoyment of media
Welcome to post postmodernism.
I would just love if the moment Mindy Kaling was about to walk in to pitch the script for Velma deadpool traveled back to that point to just shoot her in the head like he did Ryan Renolds in the 2nd deadpool movie when he was about to read the green lantern script, and after doing so simply saying: your welcome Hanna-Barbera!
👍
That would be HILARIOUS!!!
That should be in 'Deadpool 3'!
the worst part is that they disrespected the original cartoon while the Original creators are now dead, that is trully disgusting to disrespect someones legacy even after their death.
Velma was already intelligent and capable on her own. They didn’t need to diminish Fred’s intelligence and other characters’ roles just to make her stand out. God this is just sad.

Black people are insecure
It's woke they had to do what they could to make the white person look completely horrible and let's not forget the pathetic small 🦐
A clear sign of a bad writer is they can't just elevate a character. They have to tear down another in an attempt to make their character look better. It's not a new thing. Garbage writing like that has been around forever, but it used to be few and far between. Now that incompetence is ignored (even encouraged, it seems) that kind of terrible writing is commonplace.
@@fattiger6957 You mean that writing thing basically if you can make your character competent, you just make the villain incompetent so your character can win against the villain?
I love it how this "modern and more mature" reboot is far more juvenile than the cartoon with a talking dog.
Plus all this high school drama crap is way less inclusive and diverse, I barelly understand those because im not from the US and those dramas always seem dumb to me. Switching a group a friend travelling the country to just one town is a huge downgrade
It’s very obviously intentional rage bait
A talking dog? Come on, that would be silly...
Agree. Is it ironic that I think cartoons that handle mature topics in a respectful way are much more mature than cartoons and Rated R movies that handle mature topics in a disrespectful way?
@@nahuelleandroarroyo bro, nobody understands high school drama because it usually really is either brainless bullying or a result of too much teenie hormones. Same level of reason as in bar fights.
From everything I've seen about Velma, it feels like it was written by someone who hates both Scooby Doo and the intended audience for Velma itself.
That's precisely correct. The 'creator' has a massive chip on her shoulder because she's not the most important person in the room.
Although mostly she hates herself because deep down she knows she doesn't deserve it.
“Scooby-Doo Mystery Inc.” is probably my fav SD show, incredible art style that recalls the original but puts a more modern style to it, DCAU type of animation, astonishing story telling and a very cool horror/thriller element that doesn’t take away from the original concept of the show, all the villains are still people wearing masks, but it’s not just a monster of the week typa show, it has a connected story that by the half point of the show becomes so relevant the cast shift their focus to solve that mystery entirely. It’s a 10/10, watch it instead of this garbage
"Written by professionsal victims" that line explaines 99%of modern movies & series
And half of social media. I've spend an hour on explaining to one braindead that White people sometimes have naturally curly hair and no, it's not culture stealing. And I didn't spend more as I've lost temper and blocked user.
Nailed it
Written my narcissistic men hating assholes and thier flying monkey's
To suit a modern audience which doesn't exist
No
@@Zombina638👈 found one
My favorite thing about Velma is how it brings ideologically different people together to shit on the same show.
It's drawing the haters and the supporters of the groups shown in this show together to shit on it and I absolutely love that. They say finding someone that hates the same stuff as you is better than finding someone that likes the same things as you for any kind of relationship.
like the original scooby doo shows
diferent people all working together to solve the mystery
and the mystery is how anyone made a show this trash
This is the first time something actually unites the entire world.
Yep. I love subversive female representation in media. Daria, Jessica Jones, and Game of Thrones are just a few examples of shows that have done this well. The women in these shows are nuanced, flawed, and complex. They're human. There are also shows that implement diverse casting with good results. In my mind, race-switching one Targaryen branch in House of the Dragon makes sense. In their vast intercontinental empire, Targaryen intermarriage with non-White rulers would be perfectly feasible. Yes, it's a change from the book, but it doesn't detract from the story. Velma is the complete opposite. It's horribly written, exploitative troll-bait. It's the worst of cynical tokenistic woke-ism that shits all over good representation.
@@burgerkingfries4941 Actually the second time. First time was "Twilight" - not often you get conservatives and George Takei on the same side of an issue.
It seems that the people that are into all this woke stuff are some of the meanest, most vengeful, hate filled narcissists to have ever walked the earth.
I mean making a children's cartoon this spiteful is so low that it leaves one almost speechless.
Shows like Velma and She-Hulk feel like the people in high school who called you "nerdy" for liking cartoons with good storylines went into screenwriting and are trying desperately to capitalize on the popularity of these kinds of shows, but never grew out of their "lol nerd" mindset. And then when the audience hates it, they jump back and say "you're all racist!!" while totally ignoring the key story issues.
Mindy Kaling: Self inserts as Velma and mocks rich kids with Fred
Also Mindy: Raised by an extremely wealthy family, went to Dartmouth, and immediately landed a job on one of the biggest sitcoms ever made
The irony of that.
You forgot she’s a bad actor and worse writer
Expecting self-awareness from these people is expecting too much...
Her brother has the same level of insanity. He literally pretended to be black to try to get into college... I wish I could make this shit up..he even wrote a book on it... The whole family has some kind of weird issues around race.
With absolutely fuck all discernible talent.
"Produced by professional victims"
Dude, this was perfectly worded.

This gets funnier and funnier to me ! It feels like they have no inspiration to create new black characters, inspired from african folklore and history, they can only use pre existant caucasian characters and paint them black for the next movie. How ironic !
its hard being white in an white country it seems.
As a minority in the US, I couldnt take 5 minutes of this show....
I haven't even watched this shit and I can't stand this.
I feel like Mindy always wanted to be Velma, but when she realized she couldn't be Velma she did the next best thing, turned Velma into her
I dont see an issue with it. It is a fcking cartoon.
Because Velma is supposed to be smart.

Just discovered your channel. You are supercritical, abrasive abusive and spot on, so new fan. Good job... keep it up.
I feel like this is a reflection of our society right now
The funny part is that Mindy Kaling is a privileged girl who grew up in a rich family. But of course they're always the ones who are the most oppressed and the most angry. She has more in common with her version of Fred than Velma.
So oppressed and such a victim she got a sweetheart admission to an Ivy League University and never had to work a real job for a day, like most activists.
She's also probably a harlot
No no no, you don't understand. She is brown and that always means that she is oppressed.
When I drive around at work, there is neighborhood that is made up of like 90% indian families or more. It's a really nice neighborhood with big houses. Those people are all victims as well just like Mindy.
She grew up in Cambridge, MA...which for those who aren't familiar with MA...is a very wealthy (white) city. Never worked a real job in her life...when to an Ivy League school...
How on Earth can she not relate to the average person???
@@zeked4200 please tell me what is a "real job" if not being a writer/actor in the office...do you only consider blue-collar workers to have "real jobs"???
The worst part is that you can tell the character changes were the first thing they probably discussed even before script writing or anything
Well yeah that's usually how it works. Characters come first.
No the worry part is because the show if getting so much hate, more and more people are checking it out to see just how awful it is, raising its streaming numbers. So even though it may have horrible audience scores, HBO can simply say yeah well look how many millions of people still watched it?
Oh absolutely. All WEF members, I’d bet. Shitbags.
@@lawrencetalbot8346 they’d lie anyways
Just take the same show but with its own characters, and it would have a much better chance to work. But of course that's not the same, you have to take something that exists and ruin it, that's the most important part it seems.
He genuinely sounds angry when he said "go away now" in this one😂
The fact that they thought they needed to make Fred and the others stupid while promoting Velma as this dumb messiah tells u how much they understood/cared about the source material.
The fact that basically everyone hates this show, gives me so much hope in humanity 🙏
The media and Hollywood just have the money to be louder than we are on their own platforms. But everybody hates this dumb shit.
It got made. Does that fact give you any hope?
People being nuclear-levels offended by something as mild and average as this just shows that people are deep-drenched in their narcissism. Depending on their political leanings, every bandwagoner has been crying about how this show either hates minorities or white men.
And the fact that this show was made also gives me dread for humanity.
@@AnoNymous-tu1xm I'm just as offended by the existence of this show as the everyday racism I face where I live because of my ethnicity. Because I face racism, do I have to be patronised by garbage like this show? F*ck no, and f*ck anyone who tells me how to handle my victimhood.
What surprised me about this is that people are starting to understand what it means to avoid hate watching, and letting the show completely die.
Sadly it's not dead yet. Despite all of the backlash they're doubling down and going for a second season.
@@HouseOfAlastrian HBO ain’t gonna have the money to do that after this season
@@HouseOfAlastrian yeah unfortunately. But hopefully more people keep up the “Don’t watch” mindset. Fingers crossed 🤞!
Normally I would watch something just once to see for myself, but I saw enough in the promos and clips to be disgusted. It won't be watched in my home.

🤓
Fred is a humble guy that respects everyone's opinion.
Daphne loves Fred and accept his love for mystery.
Velma is intelligent and doesn't badmouth anyone in the gang.
Shaggy is funny and unique in his own way.
Scooby loves his family and his snacks.
They literally didn't need to change the characters personal trait, just throw in some new and fresh mystery cases we will be into it.
And miss out on making the head writer's fanfiction? Surely you jest.
shaggy and scooby are also the bait even if they are scared t hey are still doing it for the team
And nostalgia is a huge marketing tool.
Truth is, Scooby was not a great is nostalgia likes to claim.
It was always a "B" teir show (at least for me)... It was "Saved By the bell" or "Wings" before those shows existed.
Just nothing else to watch, over syndicated show.
I thin most of those 'retro" enthusiasm is not even for original scooby, but for rebooted 90's live action scooby.
Most of you were not even alive when ORIGINAL Scooby was on.
And what I'm saying is that was a host of other things to do back then. Scooby really isn't that great.
Scrappy was annoying, and the first "shark" the show jumped.
@@peterbelanger4094 yeah grandpa did you take your meds yet?
but then, how could they use this to spread woke messages about rich white men being bad, lesbian PoC being awesome... ?
What they did to Fred is unforgivable character assassination.
*What they did to every character, but especially Fred
the straight white male character, who would have guessed they would have done that
But no one is allowed to mention or god forbit defend him or else you're a misogynist who's merely whining because white men aren't the center of attention anymore.
The weird thing is that the original Fred barely had any character to assassinate in the first place. Everything the writers of this reboot did to him is all projection of their own hang-ups about other people they invented out of thin air.
@do not Is this fun for you?
Gotta love fanfic writers having jobs writing stories for beloved IP's and having none of the love for any of it. Sometimes feels like every 'modern' movie/tv series is just a cringey fanfic writer's self-insert, angry at the world because they are so creatively bankrupt.
What’s really crazy, is that the Mystery Inc gang knockoffs in Velma get away Scott free at the end of season 1. When half of them should be in jail, and the other half, in therapy, as they’d be in a worse spot than when they’d started. For instance, Fred should have had a meltdown and gone insane by what he’d experienced in the last week because of Velma. He was seen as a disappointment by his dad, and watched his mother die a gruesome death.
I will give this show credit for one thing, it manages to unite the entire internet and get it to hate the show
That's bad though, if we do talk about this cancer they make a profit.
They didn't even give a single fuck about scooby do, that's why scooby isn't even in his own show. They're sending a message that they ruined the franchise in purpose.
@@lollllolll. Show? What show? I don't see a "show" here.
Not me tbh. I legit like it. Not love but i laughed a few times and the animation is good. And i can get past the changed races of the characters. It’s an adaptation they are trying something new
@@anonymouscheese2095 idk what that means
Only the modern left has that ability. But shame on us(sane, non-demonically possessed human beings) for being so complacent for so long as to empower and embolden them to this extreme. I don't even think they care it's despised by 97% of all people, to them it's all about creating new norms and conditioning. They knew the hatred it would conjure up would only be free publicity, absolutely sickening.

Black Shaggy, because he always smokes dope,eats all the time, and he doesn't have a job.
Actual funny stuff that you wouldn't expect from Hollywood.
I just wanna know how we went from a family friendly ip as iconic as scooby doo, to this
The old cast always felt familial and close because they didn't TRY to force a chemistry. It just popped off.
That's because the writers of the OG series were actually good and cared about good characterization. Something too many modern 'writers' don't know how to do.
Even in the movies, when everyone went their separate ways, and eventually met up, they act like they haven't missed a day in each other's company.
Kaling really nuetered her series right off the bat.
Yeah, that's something I realized while watching this review: I never questioned why these characters were together, even though their differing backgrounds invites scrutiny. I did question Scrappy-Doo, however.
Imagine: czcams.com/video/uLxBYzEjeZA/video.html
Seriously, how can anyone still be friends with each other in this version of the story? It seems like they all hate each other, I definitelly would not want any of these clowns by my side.
Got to give Mindy Kaling credit for one thing:
She'll single-handedly be responsible for the Scrappy-Doo episodes no longer being considered the low-point of the Scooby-Doo franchise. Unless "Velma" is disinherited from the franchise (which it already is for me.)

I'd chalk that up to an innocent mistake. At least Scrappy *could* be entertaining. Velma is just mean spirited bile.
If Hollywood green lights trash like this, they’ll approve just about anything.
The show is ultimate and complete garbage. Unwatchable.
You can tell Velma is a self insert of a kid who got bullied at school and is working through therapy via the show
I'd say more like Prince Harry given so much but still the victim with a massive and to grind. I doubt the maker Mindy is it ever wanted in her life and many other people involved and this is their interpretation of those who do.
I doubt Mindy was ever bullied that badly. Did she have a blonde rich boy in her high school making salutes and unable to cut his own food? I think she's just a nasty entitled piece of work, surrounded by an industry that loves to ruin things. I have no sympathy for her or her trash products.
I hereby propose we refer to this sort of IP sabotage as "Spitewashing" 😂😂😂
Narcissism is the key trait.
The creator is a very bitter old woman who never got as far as she wanted and now is lashing out with this garbage, I’m sure some of the HBO folks buckled because she used all the terms against them, still. For a company who has made actual works of art they should have known better. Morons.

Literally me too. I watched Scooby Doo when I was younger and I loved those shows, but I had other shows that I loved more. But seeing these characters change so drastically (talking about character assassination, not their appearance) just disappoints and offends me man. It’s honestly sad and pathetic.
I am
Probably because it is insulting everyone who isn’t Mindy Kaling
The original Scooby-Doo gang never investigated murders
Even if it wasn’t based on Scooby Doo, it’d still be shit. The characters are beyond annoying, the plot makes no sense, the episodes go nowhere and there’s no over arching theme or point to any of the plot. Each plot gets picked up and completely abandoned even within each episode. It is literally the cartoon version of The Room, but without the Tommy Wiseau hilarity.
Velma is a show for Mindy Kaling, by Mindy Kaling.
I figured it was for 50 year old stoners who still watch the original Scooby Doo.
Edit: And plenty of people in the comments correct me. I stand corrected.
@@bunnywithakeyboard7628 L take
100% True based on the trailer.
Yes a self insert by one of the most sheltered people ever. So she can get back at the white patriarchy that “held her back”.
@@bunnywithakeyboard7628 A lot of people watched the original Scooby Doo, and the 90s era Scooby, and the early Scooby Doo movies, and just about all of them hate Velma.
As an aspiring writer, I usually get quite anxious on whether or not my work would be good enough. Then I learned a show like this was greenlit. Now idk whether to feel relieved or insulted that this is the competition
You want to produce your show in 2023? As long as you reach the « anti white scenes » quota you’re good!
Same here. Whenever I see these bombs and look at my writing, it inspires me to do better so not to write trash like these people have done.
Now you won't know if your work is good and people recognized it or if it's shite and the people who approved it are just braindead xD.
I would feel insulted. But thats just me.
same here lol teaches me how to recognise the bad stuff
How to make scooby doo remake good:
Shaggy: a stoner who thinks his pet dog can talk, but it's not. At the end, he stops being a stoner, bought a puppy names scrappy and found a reason in life.
Scooby: on everyone's pov, it's a normal dog that barks and always happy. In truth, he is shaggy's coping mechanism. He is, ironically the heart of the group using his adorable qualities.
Fred: a brave, well intentioned dude, but his friends always jump in to help due to his lack of knowledge regarding social norms (he grew up as a privledged white family).
Daphne: thinks she's know everything, but humbled and a graceful loser if proven wrong (either shaggy told her the bleak reality, fred told he to never give up and find other way to solution, or velma points out her fallacy). She's just lacking attention in her childhood and was driven to prove herself. Then she learned the value of friendship and loyalty.
Velma: an actual knowledgeable character, but hides her lack of sex appeal through harmless sass and sarcasm. Later she learned that life is not just about getting men, but to be the best person than before.
Velma is so hated, it's impossible to find any positive reviews of the show
The real Velma was never mean or anything. She was always happy to help her friends and to also receive their help when needed. No one was mean to anyone in that cartoon because the very point was that it was a lesson about teamwork and the value of using everyone strengths to overcome the mysteries.
The only thing the new serie does is that It gives us a good glimpse of how the authors are thinking.
Edit : English isn't my language.
Yeah. Why is she black now?
She is also heterosexual and white
@@FFGG22E what does that have to do with anything
@@MiyuwiTV Changing a character for no real reason for diversity points
They occassionally had their falling outs or quarrels but they always quickly fixed them and it was never to the ludicrous extend like in this show.

If you will REPENT of your sins and put your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you will be saved and your name will be written into the Book of Life.

Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you, to confess that I am a sinner. I have done some things in my life that I am not proud of and I repent of my sins. I believe that Jesus died on the cross for my sins and that He arose from the grave and that He is alive today. I ask that you forgive me of my sins and come into my heart... I proclaim that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. AMEN...

Cause that ain't Velma. Velma is likeable and nice. This bitch empty
Seriously, there's nothing good or redeemable about this mean spirited shit heap. It's not just cringe, it's depressing to watch.
There's a segment in the show where Norvile (Black knock-off shaggy) was confessing his feelings for Velma and the entire bit revolved around mocking his confession.
And the guy was being absolutely sincere. That's not funny or edgy. That's being a twat.
Mocking a person that's trying to be honest to their crush is childish and fucking cruel. Tell me you're an insecure cow Mindy Kaling without actually saying it.
No normal person would even think that's amusing. Fictional show or not.
I'm so sick of this cynical, whiney, mean-spirited bullshit that infests today's entertainment. Having your characters be complete assholes to each other for no reason other than sleazy attempts at humor or drama isn't clever writing. It just means you're a no talent hack.
Scooby-Doo works perfectly as a children's cartoon. Mindy Kaling said they cut Scooby-Doo out because that was what made it a children's cartoon. I have to say to Kaling, "Why did you make an adult Scooby-Doo cartoon in the first place?" I believed it also shows in the final product that Charlie Grandy and Mindy Kaling wanted to make an adult cartoon first and a Scooby-Doo show second with the show second. I also know that there are plenty of adult parodies of Scooby-Doo out there.
It was a show made in Southern California for Southern California
Mindy changed Velma into a self insert. All of the audience reviews talk about how Velma is unlikable. That’s funny.
@Anyway, Who Cares? Critical drinker doesn’t need to build his profile on CZcams though? He’s pretty successful for a review channel
@@sickemrex287 🤡
There's not a whole lot in this world that could be considered more insulting than to take a beloved legacy character going back decades and turning them into a shameless self-insert. That takes signing one's name on someone else's artwork to a whole new level.
@Anyway, Who Cares? you should do a review of the show espousing its virtues. maybe people just need to see a review like that to understand what a future classic it will become.
@@AK-Drakoin the Drinker is also an accomplished writer so he knows what’s he’s talking about when it comes to stories.
Ironic, they said they fight the steriotypes, meanwhile the entire show is full of them
It proves their mindset - all depends who makes these. Ariel, Witcher, RoP are best example of how it works. You can raceswap white to black and call ppl fascist racists if they don't admire it. Then you can attack white ppl and this will be justified -coz those fascists , rasists and h-phobes deseve it.
that’s how libtards operate
“You were supposed to fight the stereotypes not join them, Anakin!”
Ironic. They could tease other stereotypes, but not themselves who hypocritically is a stereotype.
Because stereotype humor is cheap. They claim to be subverting them but found that its easier to exploit them. It wants its cake and eat it too
It’s really disappointing to see that the show which made the childhood of people from the 70’s to the late 2015’s took such a dark, misleading and a non-required 360 degree turn.
The fact that they tried to reimagine a popular old show, banking entirely on its fans, then went waaaay out of their way to piss specifically them off with highly pointed attacks, says all you need to know tbh.
Velma was already known as the brains of the group, she’s usually the one that does all the research and figures out who the bad guy is. When they unmask the monster, Velma usually says something like, “Just as I thought” or “Like I suspected.” They didn’t need to dumb everyone else down to make her stand out. Fred was the leader who came up with the plans and traps, Velma was the brains, Daphne was the pretty face and Fred’s love interest, and Shaggy and Scooby were the comic relief/monster bait. Everyone in the group had a defined role that was important to the essence of the show. This show shat on that. Almost the entire Mystery Inc. Gang was race swapped and the only one they left white, Fred, is now the object of ridicule because of his whiteness. None of these characters are anything like their original counterparts except in name, and from what I can tell, there’s no Scooby at all. It’s like the showrunners wanted to give a big middle finger to anyone who ever watched and enjoyed this show as a kid. What a joke.
Edit: Hell, this piece of shit show makes all the live action Scooby Doo movies look like Citizen Kane. At least the live action movies managed to get the characters and group dynamic right…
In the last ep they'll bring Scooby obliviously
@@hareendrangangadharan6974 Pretty sure Shaggy had the dog before the group ever officially got together.
Daphne has always been intelligent and resourceful as well, while breaking the trope of the entitled and mean rich girl because she was always kind to everyone..
Daphne, more than another beautiful face, she is like a McGyber version on Scooby Doo. She know everything to be known of make up and cloths, which make it easier to find the connection to Velma. Velma only made an analysis of the component. Fred, for more of what he apparent, he came up with the decisions and plans just as you said. And Shaggy and Scooby are braver than people think.
@@fatzy9500 precisely, she was the one who cheered everyone on
I love how they chose to keep the dog out, because they knew Scooby would out shine Velma's one dimensional character. 😂
I heard they were not allowed use him at all, in an adult comedy. If only they had protected the other characters that well.
It’s like the Captain Marvel interviewers not being allowed to ask about the cat!
@completevideohere why don't you just say it's a pizza advertisement you human bot?
You can tell how good a person is by how much they care about animals (it's true, look it up)
Wait they dont even have the dog???
Its scoobny doo. What the fuck are they gonna do without the DOG bruh
Velma is part of the "I can't believe it's not intentional" genre. A work that is so bad that it looks like the writers are intentionally trying to make a bad show for whatever reason, but it's not; the writers are just bad at their job
As a little kid in the 80's, I used to watch Scooby doo and never cared at all if anyone was black, white, lesbian or whatever, just wanted to have fun. All this woke crap is so unnecessary. And not, I'm not even close to far right or any conservative ideal.
Well u should be you are part of the problem 🤡
When a Scooby Doo spin off doesn't have Scooby you know it's gonna be a trainwreck of a dumpster fire

As a kid (white male) I was always looking up to Velma, because she helped me realize while growing up that the looks and muscles aren't everything and one can also achieve much thanks to brains. And now look how they've massacred my... girl.

@@dizzyheads I really don't feel like the "the character has to match my race in order to empathize" is a good argument for race swapping old IPs.

@@Dak1549 I don't think that is why they said they aren't white, pretty sure they are just throwing their support for the OP since there is this common thing of people having their opinions invalidated online with irrational accusations of "oh well you're probably a white male so your opinions don't matter and/or are all wrong/bad/skewed by your privilege".
“You really get the sense that this is some kind of emotional colonic irrigation for the writers”. Great line 😊
