The weirdest part about all this to me is that in the show she is not even a good detective. She literally throws out clues without looking at them, she tries to get people she knows are innocent prosecuted, and then commits numerous crimes herself without an ounce of social awareness. She's not just wrong about all her conclusions, she's denial-of-reality wrong. I can maybe get an edgy Velma or a snarky Velma, but a stupid, bigoted, and clueless Velma? That's pretty much an INVERSION of her character.

[@Weissman111]

How can Velma be a prequel when the characters in it bear no resemblance to those in Scooby Doo?

And being around the same age at that. Velma's the youngest while Fred and Daphne are the oldest. The characters are too unrecognizable visually and personality wise to be a prequel.

I never watched she Hulk, but I felt the hate from it. Velma, I watched someone's reaction vid, and it's like.. it feels like whoever wrote it hates everyone. It's just so horrible. Disgusting. You shouldn't watch something and go:"Wow, whoever made this hates people." Honestly, I do think it's just Mindy here. Or maybe everyone who made it just poured their hatred and vitriol into it. They need a therapist and some serious chill pills if they go around like this on a normal basis.

Looking at grandy's history im not surprised at the horrendous writing of velma.

My understanding is the me too thing is from the fact that Mindy literally got me too-ed for sexual harassment cause she harassed a fellow actor, and then kissed them without consent.

I think our dream production team is lining up now. They've all proven themselevs: Producer: Lauren Hissrich Director: Ruin Johnson Writers: Mindy Kailing, Jessica Gao and some hungry Baboons with keyboards Starring: Tatiana Maslany, Warwick Davis and Ruby Cruz Make that movie NOW!

[@talithakoum3922]

The hungry baboons are the most talented people on your list 😂

The true scooby do experience is discovering why this show was even created. Is it some sort of scheme, is it a money laundering plot, a political scheme. Then we discover that it’s actually just a bitter director behind it all

[@louisduarte8763]

Or it's the plot of Mel Brooks' "The Producers": rip-off investors for money to dump into a project to create a truly reprehensible piece of "entertainment", so they can't be paid back. "Velma" is Mindy Kalig's "Springtime for Hitler".

[@windtheory716]

I knew this would be a mess when they described the female characters with some tragic backstory then they described the male characters with jokes like, Fred has a small pp and shaggy was laughed at for having feelings for someone. All female characters are tragic heroes and male characters are just jokes and you're suppose to laugh at their struggle

Velma hates you, hates comedy, hates Scooby Doo, hates Velma, etc. Pretty sure the creators of this show hate existence and all things in it.

As WC Fields said: "Never work with children and animals." She knew Scooby would pull focus from

Drinker seemed to be surprised that had to go all the way back 3 months to find a show as obnoxiously mean-spirited. 3 months is nothing. In the 20th century, there weren’t really any mean-spirited shows. Oh, how things have changed.

[@zardox78]

I'm all for using the term "Don Draper" as shorthand to describe a character who frustratingly keeps resetting to their default state over and over again. But it feels just a little too esoteric, and that's coming from someone who's seen Mad Men in its entirety. Don Draper's characteristics just aren't as commonly known as someone like Ned Flanders. I know the show had a lot of hype early on, but I'm not sure it ever really had the numbers to match. And those numbers only ever went down. Plus, it seems like there are so many more glaring examples of characters like that. Rick Grimes comes to mind. Or House, for the vast majority of the series.

My favourite part of this saga is the PYSOP allegations.

[@bbgbear]

There was so much they could do with good writing. Going from 4 teens that would never hang out together to a well developed and successful mystery solving team has so much potential for a good story. But the writers obviously have no life experience to call on to help them develop this story.

I like how you said “not since shehulk” like it was ages ago when it was like 2 months ago. 😂

Velma broke down the reviewers before they could break down Velma

[@brigbjones]

Mindy Kaling is bitter because she knows her best performance, no; the only meaningful work she has ever been in was The Office. She played a tertiary character, in an American adaptation, of a British TV comedy, more than two decades ago. She peaked in a throwaway role as a young adult and she now takes glee in burning the beloved memories of millions of people in effigy.

[@sophieamandaleitontoomey9343]

I genuinely don’t get how HBO released the pilot of the Last of Us and Velma in the same time frame. One has enormous potential and the other is one I hope will be cancelled soon. (Yes I know they renewed it for some reason.)

[@TheGodOfGravy]

Melonie has a good point. Nobody needs or wants to see these characters in so a hyper sexual scenario. It’s a fetish.

[@connorberry6377]

An openly racist, sexist show that mutilates a beloved character and respective franchise. Actually rather impressive
