I'm imagining a headcanon multiverse scenario in which someone contacts Satan and makes a deal with him, a simple trade of souls (SPOILERS FOR 'EXORCIST: BELIEVER,' IF ANYONE ACTUALLY WANTS TO WATCH THAT CRAPPY FILM!): In exchange for Satan releasing the soul of Katherine West (the nice enough churchgoing 12- year- old girl from 'Exorcist: Believer' who gets possessed and ultimately is dragged to Hell because her idiot dad got tricked by the demon) so that she can leave Hell and ascend to Heaven, Satan can take Velma's FAR more deserving- of- eternal- damnation soul to Hell to torment to his dark heart's content forever. Everybody wins except for Velma, who doesn't deserve to win at anything.

I find the constant jabs towards rich people to be incredibly ironic because not only is Mindy Kailing herself incredibly rich, but her parents were apparently rich themselves to the point she attended a private school Edit: I've seen a few people say how we should separate the actor from the character and how there are plenty of characters who are voiced by the creators of their respective shows or movies (for example both Matt and Trey have played multiple characters in their projects) and while I get where people are coming from, I do personally see Velma in this show as a self insert of Mindy Kailing. Not only cause of the choice to change Velma's ethnicity to match Kailing's, but Kailing has had the habit of self inserting herself into projects she's worked on

[@bluetiger2468]

It's not ironic, Mindy isn't rich, she's just a "millionaire", not a "billionaire". You're supposed to separate the voice actor from the character they portray but this show makes it really hard to do that because Velma has no character. You hear Velma insulting rich people but all you hear is Mindy basically saying, "I hate the rich, I'm so relatable, right guys?" while she's relaxing in her 15-million-dollar house.

I love that Fred is the only one who's worth giving a damn over. It reminds me of how the higher-ups for the 2021 Mortal Kombat movie made the studio create Cole Young because they didn't wanna use Johnny Cage, because "having another white male lead feels too Hollywood-ish". But then the only character that people ACTUALLY liked the most in the movie was Kano... a white male. Kind of goes to show when all you focus on is trying to give your non-white characters special attention and writing them to be absolutely perfect and able to do no wrong, somehow the white characters are the only ones who are treated normally and without special treatment, so it feels like they're written more naturally and then people are more drawn to them.

[@chadharger9323]

Didn't watch MK '21. . .but Kano was the character everyone liked? He's a villain and really nasty one at that. He went from regular villain to pure hate sink throughout the games.

[@TheChildofAuraReborn]

@@chadharger9323 For some background context, in MK2021, Kano was captured by Sonya to help locate Raiden’s temple, so for a good chunk of the movie he was technically a good guy. Plus he was just funny and had a lot of personality, people largely said that Kano was a vehicle for the audience’s reactions/emotions to what was happening in the movie (at least until he dies, lol). People can like villains, especially ones that are funny/charismatic/compelling. Especially in a movie/game/show where the main characters are severely under-developed or just outright detestable (like most of the Velma cast). If you’re given a bunch of protagonists who are supposed to be seen as likable in multiple aspects but they really aren’t, then sometimes the villain ends up being better because they actually fill their role.

Lol first time in a long time scrappy Doo been done justice. Killing this Velma was a god send and am not even a believer but some times i wanna believe.

12:30 I'm doing my part

[@hybrid_hawkins7206]

What I don't understand was how come the series brought Scrappy, but completely leaves out Scooby. That's a total disservice for me. Then again, this whole series is a disservice to the Scooby-Doo Franchise. Just like you said, it's like WB is giving us a big shitty middle finger.

[@geardog24]

With all the hype Scrappy has been getting maybe it’s time to bring him back into the franchise for real.

[@zaktilton1680]

I am praying we don't get a season 3, but I also see Mindy Kaling throwing a huge temper tantrum about it and will be blaming everyone around the world for not stroking her ego. and if somehow it does get a season 3 Then she almost has to have something on someone

[@chadharger9323]

She once sexually harass a male coworker (who was openly gay to boot) and got away with it by threatening to fire people if they talked. She bragged about it on Conan O Brian's show. . .so blackmail/extortion might not be a stretch.

2:32 I’ll admit, that background map gag is legitimately funny. Kudos to the background artists!

[@85inexact]

The sad part is the animation is genuinely not horrible. Shame about the script and character design.

[@TAGanimation]

Velma pitch meeting: Mindy Kaling: when people watch tv, whats their first thought? WB Producer: "i like this"? Mindy: uh-uh, its "why doesnt the main character come from the exact same background as i do?".

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

Man, working on this as an artist must've been hell.

[@Chymai]

thank you for doing this so none of us had to watch this show. you are leading us to a better world of no Vemla season 3

[@Jonathan_Collins]

If I had a nickel for every time Velma got a season I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's strange that it happened twice. P.S. I’m so glad Scrappy killed Velma, as a reward I tolerate him now.

[@Rockstar-bq5fm]

Just leaving my Obligatory “please review Sword of the Stranger” dude. Definitely worth a watch if you haven’t seen it.

[@NBDYSPCL]

Mindy Kaling criticising uncomfortable work environments despite so many stories of her being a fucking diva is the _height_ of irony. What a mess this show is.

[@DeonSmith-ek8ne]

This show makes shaggy and scooby doo get a clue look like a masterpiece.

[@mathieuleader8601]

I feel like Vincent Van Ghoul will be coming to rescue Velma's soul in the cliffhanger

[@michaelbierema5642]

I think the reason why they dropped it all instead of doing it in pieces, is because there are probably not enough people that actually hate watch the show. Most are probably just doing as I do, watch others cringe or critique at the show, since it is not actually worth the time to watch it in full.

God damn that comparison from 1:45, fkn hell. Made me spit out my drink, thanks for that. Doesn't help I have something of a vivid imagination, so that mental image is now just living rent free for at least a while. :D

[@liamphibia]

I'd rather go rewatch that Knuckles spin-off show than having to waste my precious hours on Velma S2. Which, fun fact, they premiered on the same week together.

[@rimfire8217]

This show tried to tackle the debate of Scientific Materialism vs. Religious Spiritualism. Regardless of where you stand on that subject, I think we can all agree that this show doesn't deserve to tackle it.

[@christansanchez8686]

Please don’t cause anymore suffering to yourself… that’s what this show is all ABOUT. SUFFERING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the only Velma content I've taken in has been your video essays and that's the only way I'm watching this load XD

[@dr.bright6272]

Everyone: this show sucks. Directors who can't take criticism: it's all the audiences fault!

[@SonOfAB_tch2ndClass]

This is why I did not hate watch Velma. Did not want to even give them an excuse to make more

[@dr.virus1295]

Would it be so hard to ignore this series, pretend it doesn't exist?

[@boop004]

Steve's upload schedule is wasted on this crap haha. I'm sure there's something out there he could watch without melodramatically groaning at his self-inflicted misfortune!

[@jimhagglof217]

the fact that they introduce scrappy as a character but dont even have scooby is the real crime. Likewise the fact that there was no goal in the killings is like pure anti scooby doo since the criminals always have a plot to achive a goal (always convoluted af but still)

[@eg_manifest510]

I still to this day do not understand the Scrappy Doo hate, like what has my boy ever done wrong??

[@supersasukemaniac]

Apparently he was annoying, I liked him, up until the live action movies.

[@cheesemonger6378]

Part of me wonders if Norville's hallucinations were shoe-horned in after they saw it was pretty much the only thing people praised about season 1.

[@JoeFinsternis]

It's been years since I watched the og Scooby-Doo so I can't speak for myself now, but I thought Scrappy was hilarious back in the day. And small dogs really are that bold and stupid, so it wasn't a bad running gag.

[@chadharger9323]

The problem was that Scrappy was a distraction from whatever antics the rest of the cast were up to. He was a 'scene stealer'. If Scrappy had been originally toned down A LOT he would've been better received by the fans.

[@tranquilthoughts7233]

9:44 The sickening thing about this story is that if the sexes were reversed in that story the reaction woldn't have been laughter but outrage. But since the sex offender this time was a women it's just a huge joke. Pure hypocracy.
