The show everyone dislikes. Is it bad, or was it made to be bad? Or is it sorta good but so insulting that we don’t care because, I mean, c’mon look at it. I’m here to explain why Velma is actually performing really well and why you all got played.

Could u talk about what makeup you use?
It was never meant to be Scooby-Doo. Mindy went to them with her show, and hbo realized it would sell better if they slapped a Scooby skin on it. Basically, they knew we would hate watch it.
3:58 That joke's awful though because they DO the thing they're criticizing. That's called lampshading and bad writers use it as an excuse to have their cake and eat it too
I don't think changing shaggys ethnicity neds a reason. You said it doesn't aid his character but like how did being white aid his character?
Yes, I hate watching the show and then I kind of liked it a little bit and some things they said made me laugh
I forget who said this and where, but I saw someone had a theory that originally this show wasn’t going to have Scooby-Doo characters at all but WB forced the creators to add them and I’m starting to think that’s true. Just like they said in the vid if you take the Scooby-Doo parts out it’s a perfectly fine show and everyone would love it. But we didn’t get that and instead got this show with a Scooby-Doo shaped tumor on it and it’s just frustrating.
" i see you" I honestly like the show tbh
Please do a video talking about " Are You Afraid Of The Dark " the original and reboots
The worst attention you give anything is no attention. It doesn't matter whether you like it or not what matters is you gave it attention
hatewatching… is not that effective. Normies do exist guys, who do you think watched Avatar?
It is dog water garbage. It is fading out to be forgotten. There is no buzz. the buzz was a week long. Just like this channel I will down vote and hide.
You should totally watch Scooby-Doo mystery incorporated. It's kinda like a dark Scooby-Doo that's way better then this I mean it's not perfect nope some of the writing is actually really weird/ bad but it is slightly more serious and fun and has an over aching mystery that spands the whole show and isn't actually half bad^^
It finally hit me who you look like. Vil Schoenheit, from Twisted Wonderland.
What's most disappointing about Velma is that it has all the barebones of things I desire. All-Star and diverse voice cast of proven actors & actresses, a modern take on the Scooby gang, and stylized animation.
When actually watching the series, I found it easier to just listen to the voice acting–which then became an issue because it is a cartoon and not a podcast. That being said, the first two episodes have the most fluid animation as well as the finale in a critical climax–which, is unfortunate.
Its greatest flaw, imho, is the insistence of hitting x plot points within a single episode. The first two episodes are especially terrible for its pure speed-run method, with only a single beat of silence after Norville's "I don't do drugs" bit. The only episode that has decent pacing, is the 7th episode.
And the other great flaw is the lack of making a fulfilling mystery story, but its my bad for assuming a modern adaptation of teenagers solving mysteries would even HAVE a good mystery.
I really don't buy it. Hate bait isn't really an effective tactic. Companies just can't admit that they made a mistake.
Responsibility for this divisive, puerile dog's vomit of a show lies with Mindy Kaling and HBO Max. Don't blame the audience. Don't blame the victim.
Haven't watched it, don't plan on doing so… Thanks for the video, it explains a lot
this is high guardian spice all over again. i liked high guardian spice
I honestly thought I was the only one who liked it more as it went on.
This is only a temporary win for them. All this will do is unite the internet and have everyone cone together to get the show cancelled and have Warner Brothers pay for their crimes against humanity.
This was a good analysis. Thanks.
Yeah, the overhatred of the show did nothing but get it renewed! We need to just ignore it and stop watching if we want to end eventually probably! No use continuing to watching we hate, it only makes it worse if we do so! I never tuned in for this show at all and it got very divisive among everybody! People have pretty much talked about it and how much they hate it and how cringey and unfunny the dialogue for it is! This is a total disaster and it's what they wanted to do to you all along! They wanted to make fans of Scooby-Doo! mad so that they could make a season 2 of this show! It's such an awful show and it should be cancelled immediately please!
Remember when the way to piss people off and generate controversy was with satanism, public nudity, and reminding people that vaginas exist? We should go back to that, I bet it'd still work, you just gotta update it a little.
NOooooo please please please don't lump Bojack with R&M and Big Mouth. Bojack is a masterpiece. TT
5:25 Also Indians are Asians too… Everyone seems to always forget that..
Can you do a review of Mia and me?
Me and my friends came up with a parody of Riverdale that was based on magic school bus, where someone gets murdered and the kids, who are now gay teens, have to figure it out. It was actually pretty good, and I was hopping this show was gonna be like that.
Too bad that it was canceled. I'm pretty sure the show lost.
You did not just put Bojack Horseman in the same realm as fuckin big mouth and rick & morty??? If you haven't watched the series please don't compare it to other series while making a review? It makes it seem like you genuinely don't watch things at all or all the way through
I think my main issue with Shaggy becoming Norville is that he hates something that was so essential to his character. Also the implication that he can't be Black and a stoner because of respectability politics :/ I hate when creators feel like they have to sanitize Black characters to avoid controversy, it makes me feel like I can't have any flaws or I'll be a stereotype…
Totally couldn't agree with you more! I saw myself really liking the show once I released that it wasn't Scooby-Doo in any capacity. Especially since the creator said that it was an original pitch and HBO said they wanted to use the Scooby-Doo franchise to help elevate it. Great points! Love your videos.
I'm a die-hard Scooby-Doo fan, so I just treat this show like it's in its own lane. Honestly, I didn't hate the show, so I shall be watching season 2. Will I rewatch the seasons, absolutely not.
Even this video is continuing the press about that show which is going to Prove its own point. Also it's bad because it makes a lot of jokes against its own target demographic
Give me ur Sonic skate board
Just something i wanted to say i fully agree with your opinion about hate watching also a youtuber called lavender towne did a really good job on breaking down and fixing the velma show
I can personally separate the art from the artist, the Scooby Doo and the Velma; as someone who enjoys 4th wall breaks, edgy, self aware humor I really enjoy the show. I watch it every week and am excited to see a second season. For example, the animations are beautifully done and Im hoping the story plot leads to the group coming together to form the one we know and love.
Bad shows should be reviewed by critics and audiences for only gettibg getting canceled or if they are allowed to have positive reviews, then they've get the green lit to have a second season
I honestly liked this show, it's bad but I enjoy it. I liked the ending reveal and I thought it was fun. I am excited for season 2 because I think they'll make Norville into Shaggy.
Velma is good. Opinions are like assholes, everyone's got one and some are bigger and looser than others.
