Hello king
Yes it is horrible
hello
No cake shot this time too
5:55. This girl is keyed to be scooby...........
it's funny how they make jokes about toxic masculinity, but make fun of fred for not being manly enough, literally pushing said toxic masculinity.
Good old "make fun of/criticize trope while committing it yourself so you can pretend to be self-aware"
Velma is full of this shit, and most of the latest "Meta" shows too
because certain people like to complain about masculinity but hate immasculine men even more
I find that a certain subsect of women that dont want guys to ever be vulnerable.
@@deezboyeed6764 A good lesson for a man to learn is when to be vulnerable, which is almost never. It really should be used as a punctuation.
@@thesilverblueman people criticising toxic masculinity is not the same as complaining about or hating masculinity, there is a big difference between masculinity in general and toxic masculinity. However I agree that the people making this show are hypocrites since they go out of their way to mock the idea of a man being not very masculine.
They REALLY fucked over Fred.
Throughout every iteration of the show he was the sweetest, most caring, loveable idiot who genuinely just cared about people and ended up not seeing himself as the leader but the teams cheerleader.
He wasn't even an idiot. He could make complicated contraptions to catch the monsters
Fred unfortunately suffers from Hollywood's Woke obsession. He's a good looking white guy. That means he should be made the ass of the joke.
@@omermammadli985 no he is dumb, but it was done in a lovable way. Like when he couldn’t recognize Velma without her glasses or daphne when she changed her look a little.
himbo
Some recent iterations he's just a simp for Daphne and having relationship issues.
I love how the internet came together and agreed to hate the Velma show
The only time where the left and the right wing collectively agree on something
you tell anyone and youre fired
the F did they do xD
No, you should love how a bunch of overpaid pampered Hollywood assholes got together to make a shitty show. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
nah they didn't there was drama about if the show was good (i don't really remember if its true or not because i have shit memory)
Not a single “My glasses, I can’t find my glasses” line in this entire show and that alone is a federal offense
Im not surprised they didn’t use it tbh
Towards the end she loses them and says something like "Oh no, my glasses, I hope that doesn't become a recurring gag"
I guess they were trying to avoid offending visually impaired people in their failed attempt to be 'woke'.
They did..at the end
@@AwkwardHillbillyThey just had to ruin it with a self aware joke
This entire show can be summed up with one sentence:
“The ability to speak does not make you intelligent.”
This works shockingly well for this show.
Along with "The ability to animate does not make you successful."
One of the few lines that shall forever be immortalised.
"Now get out of here."
"no no mesa stay! Mesa got season 2 green lit!"
Remember when a new Scooby show made Fred's quirk just having an unhealthy love for traps? Those were good days.
it was funny because it came out of nowhere and yet made perfect sense for his character. this was not funny because it was painfully obvious and made no fucking sense at any point. clearly Velma knows how to do it better
mmmm look at the springs on that baby 😍
thank you for reminding me of that lolol. i love mystery incorporated sm
And splitting the gang up. lmao
Lmao yah
And TRAYsures
Knowing what kind of person Mindy is, her being casted as DISGUST from Inside Out is now the funniest thing that's ever happened to her career.
It really is, she’s lucky she’s still getting work. I think there definitely would’ve been more of a uproar if a man made that joke.
I didn't even know this
@@malayaanderson8222 Yeah I’m upset there wasn’t more uproar about that?? Like wtf. She admitted to sexual assault AND blackmailing witnesses about it. The FUCK?
@@malayaanderson8222 Not a joke, it actually happened. And since it's a crime, this is what's called a "confession". Not a joke.
@@rachellydiabSounds like sexual harassment/assault to me. 🤷♂️
Any man says something like that and they get crucified, stop playing.
Mr. Bean is also funny because you can see the thought processes that bring him into such absurd situations. It's not just ransom silliness; it's well thought out silliness.

@@thatdude3977 It's not spelled "yo" but "please"
she should face legal consequences for that ASAP, I get what you mean but just remembering it isn’t enough. most predators will do it again, she needs to be stopped now.
@@slovnicurling9808 Get off the internet if you can't handle it, yo.
Velma is a creation of someone who hates herself, but not as much as she hates everyone else. Since she feels she's less loathsome then everyone around her, she enjoys making judgments about how more pathetic those around her are, then she is.
I feel this is the most accurate thing I've ever read
It does make me kind of sad actually, the vibes I'm getting is that this is written by someone who was probably bullied and just assumes that everyone else has a problem with her and acts mean and judgy because she already assumes everyone else is constantly doing that to her, so she's not seeing that she's mean or judgy but simply just being the same as everyone else and I do have sympathy for that.
That being said, you don't do yourself any favors being a victim forever and a mindset change couldn't hurt.
@@sarahbarabe4990 I spent my school years being bullied, to the point where I would hide in the boiler room at my school, during breaks to avoid being beaten by some students. Whatever this person went through, does not justify the "Hero" of this series, acting like a complete sociopath. Her laughing at Norville, declaring his feelings for her, shows exactly how toxic she is.
And, to masturbate her ego. 🙄
Velma is like Mark Renton from Trainspotting but without the charisma
Mindy is the sole definition of the word "Privilege" itself. She grew up in a upper class, went to an ivy league college & never had to struggle in her life to get where she is. She made Velma herself insert but this version of Fred is actually HER.
i hate to get psychoanalytical but it seems her self insert are the parts of her she accepts as who she is (she thinks these negative traits are ok) while fred are the parts of her she denies having (her upbringing, privilege, and feelings of entitlement) and shaggy is what she thinks shes entitled to (undeserved admiration)
Yup she needs to deflect it. And she knows the best group to do that with us white people. Fucking pathetic
@@thesilverblueman No, that's pretty spot on. Fred as is depicted here is both her ire and her desire. The hot white male that passed her over in her own life through highschool and college cause she's frumpy and ugh. So she wants to scorn him because he ignored her for other sexier white women. And shaggy is 'entitlement' itself. That despite 'I'm a loser' and cant get what I want, I still deserve to be worshipped, hence why shaggy exists. This woman is pathetic.
Idk about the Ivy League part, but yeah once you get in that pipeline you good to go. Far from easy to get into Ivy League though
@@HebrewHammer1337 most Ivy League schools have legacy acceptance.
Basically, if someone else in your family went, you’re guaranteed to be able to go. Grades literally don’t matter.
Also they accept anyone if you have enough money
It’s actually crazy how Mindy still thinks this is her masterpiece and the audience is to blame for this shows failure AND she even said she loves Velma as a character so why make a Velma that doesn’t act like…. Velma?
How is it the audience's fault???
Basically the whole show can be characterized by one of the scenes from the finale. Mother of fred just died in fron of him, he saw the whole process his mother was turned into bloody pancake, and other teenagers also witnessed bloody scene, there s blood and part of inner organs everywhere, and velma covered in blood and intestines of other human starts happily twerking like she is completely crazy. She is the worst person i ever seen in cartoon industry.
She self inserted herself as Velma. Of course she'd like herself. She's unironically worse than all the shit she preaches about its hilarious that she still can't see it.
@MajorOctofuss it's not it's just an excuse used by film makers who can't take any form of criticism
Because Mindy is an idiot. Theres no two ways about that based on this, she literally lacks intellect.
I have no idea who this show is for, because it clearly isn't for:
- fans of any of the previous Scooby-Doo shows
- fans of adult animation
- fans of animated comedy
- fans of off-color humor
- fans of woke humor
- fans of dark humor
- anyone with more than two functioning brain cells
It is made for Mindy Khaling’s fantasies.
It has to be a republican psy-op
Maybe not any of this but only made because they want our money?
@@lizdevilz7271 if that is what they are looking for, they are failing miserably. Who wants to buy this garbage?
Wtf is woke humour? Sounds like an oxymoron to me
In the original shows, despite the gang running in different social circles, they clearly cared for each other. That's not apparent here, unless you count Norville and Velma.
@@somerandolad “Likable”
He’s just the least unlikeable
Norville is the only character that's not an actual douchbag and he is a decent human being unlike Velma who is the worst human being ever
Yeah, the show was supposed to be about how people don't all need to be the same type of people to get along and work together. Also, Shaggys name in the original show is actually Norville which is where they got that name. It was supposed to be a joke/commentary about how a name doesn't define a person.
I mean just Norville honestly, Velma literally laughs in his face when he confesses her feelings towards her so......
@@Void_Out man I would say the wooden doors are the best characters, the carpeted floors have more like-able features then new age-Velma. I’m a fan of dark humor, when pulled off correctly it makes you laugh but also shocks you! You have to have the ability to laugh at yourself though. In Velma, it’s non-stop violence, crude jokes, out of pocket insults with no timing toward the viewer, and the blandest form of sexism and racism jokes.
It’s like they were trying to make the most horrible show so they get more clicks, and the worst part about it is that the original gang WERE diverse in terms in social circles. A nerd, popular girl, a kinda dumb but cool jock, a stoner/tax evader, and a dog. Despite being the most opposite in terms of social concepts, they got along and would never stab each others backs.
In Velma, all the characters hate each other, (Exept Velma and Norville who get somewhat along.) , ALL of them are total jerks, then suddenly all the characters LOVE Velma and wanna date her, they changed the characters races for no reason other then to make more jokes, (I’m a person of color being Latin and Native American so I’m fairly tan, and all I have to say is that inclusiveness isn’t skin deep, it REALLY ISN’T. It’s super annoying when a character’s entire personality is their race. And the thing is that it’s not cool or normal to be jackasses to white people but yet again apparently it’s okay because they’re white??) The show is god awful ,I haven’t even watched a single episode of Scooby yet I already know the show is garbage. I’m sorry for the rant BUT MAN this show is garbage and I need to get this outta my system.
Velma is the type of woman who would raise a serial killer if she ever found herself with custody of a young boy.
Underrated comment.
It says 2 comments, but I only see one
This is a lot of the reason why we've seen an uptick in young, white, males turning into school shooters and killers. Society demonizes them for being them, and they have no healthy outlet for their emotions, which is needed for young males especially due to higher levels of aggression.
A lot of woke morons will scoff at this, but its true. History is irrelevant to how people are today. When a generation of people are attacked and demonized for actions they never committed, it turns them ugly. I saw someone bring this up on one of those Vox panels where they're talking about masculinity and they had this "non-binary" dude scoff and make excuses about it. Meanwhile I'm thinking to myself "I bet you've dealt with a lot of BS and if someone scoffed at YOU and made excuses about YOU, you'd have a big problem with it".
Shows like this are toxic af and will just cause more issues.

I’m honestly impressed. I didn’t think it was possible to make a show that would offend absolutely everyone.
Yep. It’s the worst thing since Q-Force. And even then the outrage about Velma dwarfs the outrage about Q-Force.
@@SteampunkHorseatleast Q-force turned out to be a good show
@@moonknight6738 fair. Even if the plot/premise totally defeats the idea/fact we’re fighting for (that LGBT+ people are no different to anyone else 😭🏌️)
She brought the internet together
I honestly want to watch a Behind The Scenes episode to know wtf they were thinking (or smoking). This show is genuinely fascinating lol
Norville declaring he hates drugs unprompted might've been a funny joke if the character acted anything at all like the character he's supposedly based on.
I think the joke was supposed to be "Shaggy is seen by the community as a stoner, so Norville saying he hates drugs is a joke!" I refuse to call that person Shaggy. Sadly I can't do it so easily with the other characters.
@@Olimar92 That's literally what he said.
@@jacktrades5403 No, he said it would be a funny joke if Norville acted like Shaggy. The Joke in the Show is a very Meta Joke that plays off of this character not being Shaggy.
It'd be so funny if he gave high key stoner vibes but was heavily against drugs. And the show constantly put him in situations where you think he is doing drugs, but then it's revealed he is just doing something mundane. For ex: hearing bubbling and laughing in his room. Then it's revealed he is just setting up a bubble machine for his twitch stream
@@trinodot8112 Yeah ahaha like imagine he's in the bathroom and a bunch of smoke is coming out of his stall and he's just screwing around with a smoke machine or something stupid
I like how the audience in the talk showed laughed about her SAing someone
and laughed harder when she threatened witnesses
Well she’s a women so most people think it’s okay
Apparently its fine for women to sexually assault, harass men in our society, especially if its the race of men they heavily fetishize & obsess over in all their *"self insert"* characters on the television shows they produce, and can even threaten the employees with losing employment or other immoral threats, blackmailing or blacklisting like Harvey Weinstein did
Imagine if the genders were switched? I bet the reaction definitely wouldn't be the same.
"haha guys I SA‘d someone isn’t that so funny and relatable" 😐
I've never seen that emoji before where did you find that?
It’s actually amazing how this was made and everyone on the team was like “yep this is great let’s release this”
Fans: *This is dumb*
Mindy Kailing: *This is so dumb it's Brilliant*
Fans: *NO!!!!! it's just dumb*
It's work. Your either a yes man in that industry or you're out. Especially in today's anti criticism society
Well, the whole team, and Hollywood for that matter, is just a vile pile of rapists, sex offenders, and most likely pedophiles. So no wonder that trash like this gets released
And they removed almost all of their cartoons and children shows online.
Check Mothers Basement. He did a bit on it a while back
@@pheunithpsychic-watertype9881 this is a society moment
I hate the fact that when Mindy Kaling was bragging about sexually assaulting a co-star, _everyone started laughing._ That is how normalized sexual assault against men is.
She also threatened to fire the guy
1:25 Mindy kissing a guy without his consent and making a 20:42 "Me too" joke in this show weirdly makes a lot of sense now. Of course she doesn't take that movement seriously when she is part of the problem.
BUT... it is totally okay and super for her. Because she is a woman. She can't do anything wrong (according to her ideology)
@@hblaub which isn't even really an ideology anyway. She doesn't speak for actual survivors my guy. But agreed she is absolutely part of the problem
@@hblaub Shes literally a conservative. Look it up. She has tons of public political views and they’re ALL conservatives.
Nice try attempting to smear the left with this accusation though sweetie. And nice strawman that LITERALLY NO ONE believes. Find me a SINGLE person who says it’s ok to sexually assault men. Pretty sure it’s conservatives who consistently excuse sexual assault. God you’re annoying 😂
And the guy she force kiss , Lee Pace, is gay. Just hoping she is not that kind of girl that think it is ok to grope gay guy
@@ns0n oh i´m sure she is that kind of person, also to have the kind of friend that is a bit odd and call it gay even if it isn´t
I have a theory that the only reason Scooby Doo isn’t in this show is because the writers were told they couldn’t make constant implied bestiality jokes.
Why does that make sense tho?
it is almost certainly for that reason
If that's the reason then honestly it's for the best. Scooby Doo was Scooby Dooby Saved.
@@breadconeseur Because it probably does. 😂
They did the cockroach humping so…just one step there.
I just feel so bad for Frank Welker, who played Fred since the original (he's the only OG cast member still active), and now he's playing Fred's dad in this dumbster fire and forced to see how they ruined his original character :(
I just imagine him either eye-rolling or straight-up having an aneurysm at one moment at the start of episode 2 that later becomes a running joke in the episode.
I imagine he’s pretty annoyed about it considering he’s been Fred in basically everything since the beginning of this franchise, that takes some pretty big dedication, but I’ll imagine he’ll be over it when another scooby doo cartoon comes out. I at least hope he got a good paycheck out of it.
I don't know if you meant dumpster fire, but dumBster fire is now my new favorite insult. Thank you. My day is now perfection😎
Wow I didn’t know that. That’s sad
Also, as a heads-up: Velma's original voice actress, Nicole Jaffe (who voiced her from 1969-1973), is still alive. I wonder what SHE thinks of this show.
That said, Casey Kasem (Shaggy's original VA) and Heather North (Daphne's predominant VA) have both passed away.
I think the thing that jumps out at me the most is just how different the main characters are to their Scooby-Doo counterparts.. like none of them are even remotely the same. It's almost as if they chose to loosely base them off Scooby-Doo characters as a way to get people to watch the show because they know that if they made their own characters, no one would watch it & it would be completely forgettable.
i think you hit the nail on the head with that one. i firmly believe the writer of the show wanted their own thing but couldn’t make it cause nobody wanted it. so they pitched it as a scooby doo remake and it got approved cause remakes are incredibly popular with producers and streaming sites (even though 90% of the time the audience doesn’t even want them cause they’re almost always bad)
coming back to this with more intel, the writer DID plan on doing their own show at first but then changed it to the scooby doo remake.
the show is pretty much a self insert fanfiction, the main character is voiced by the writer, her ethnicity was changed to the writers ethnicity and she said in an interview she could always identify with velma cause she was the smart one and the most valuable member in the group 🫠
also literally every single group member falls in love with velma at one point in the show and she’s always the hero that saves the day and the one that solves all the mysteries..
i said it’s a fanfiction but honestly there’s better fanfiction out there than this show
@@buchstaben-suppebrotha thats wild
The only good thing about this show is that it gives me confidence as a writer, because no matter how bad what I end up writing is, it’s at least virtually impossible for it to be as bad as Velma’s writing is.
That's how I feel about some things too lol like I can't make music but I wish I could, I make a few crappy songs and feel bad. But then I hear some of the things people shamelessly put out there and wonder wtf am I worried about? I can't be as bad as they are.
But if you’re white you will have to do much better than that to get a job. The bar is only this low for forcing diversity. Meritocracy only applies to white men, so maybe you could take the LGBT angle and get in that way, idk.
@@-desertpackrat I think being so self critical is actually a good sign that you’ll at least create something decent if you put the effort in. I find it’s folks who have little to no internal critic who tend to often put out the most mediocre to downright awful stuff. I think it’s why one-time great creators of works often become less good over time when they surround themselves with ego boosting yes men.
No only that but even if u write something as horrendous as this show you'll still land a gig
As an author battling with my own critic, I agree with these comments.
Scooby being spared from this dumpster fire is the only good thing to come from this show
Scooby became a woman
Scooby became a military brain swapping project
@@WokioWolfy Not really. Fortunately. 😅 They swapped Shaggy having a dog best friend to Norville having a girlfriend.
The other good thing (for me) is that there's a channel, I think it's called Brittney reacts or something like that, which I found because of Velma. Her commentary is pretty good. A bit more on the serious side than on the funny side but I like her.
@@sylverscale "they swapped shaggy having a dog with shaggy having a girlfriend" WHATS THE DIFFERENCE AM I RIGHT FOLKS?
The biggest compliment I can give to the show is that at least the art style isnt just another rick and morty clone
The animation is the only thing I've heard is good about this show
Instead it's a poor Venture Brothers clone, almost as if they deliberately tried to copy the Groovy Gang.
Yea it looks like they actually tried
@@TerrenceNowicki yeah but they forgot the funny part of the groovy gang
@@TerrenceNowicki I never saw it as Venture Bros at first. I thought it was a take at the DuckTales reboot.
How Mindy was even ALLOWED TO WRITE is BEYOND me
This is why she won't be part of Inside Out 2
I think one of the most unintentionally funny parts of the show, is that of the original main cast, Shaggy is the richet and most privileged member of the cast, as its a joke that somebody like him is from such a well off family. It's why his legal name "Norville" cause he's technically upper class. But cause they made him black in this show, they had to like, make him poorer and make Fred richer just so all the white privilege jokes would even make sense.
Talk about stereotyping. God I hate this show with a passion.
He's black so he has to be poor right.
It would've worked so much better if it was the other way around and slightly subversive but nah.
The whole show is ironically racist towards everyone
Isn’t Daphne also rich?
@@Dave102693 All of them are wealthy.
Yeah this show is like, see how awful men are? Let’s feel morally superior by shitting on them and calling all women queens. Let’s fight sexism with more sexism who cares about equality 😅 its really bad
Nothing warms my heart more than humanity coming together to dog pile on a complete dumpster fire.
Velma complaining about how female origin stories are treated as just women insane is strange, because most of the female origin stories lately have been let down because they refuse to give a female character an internal conflict. The character has nowhere to develop if she starts off with no problems, is already perfect, everyone loves her, and she just has to deal with external forces keeping her down
Exactly this think about the new Star Wars or the Mulan remake, there is 0 internal conflict which is one of the best conflicts in anything.
The funny thing is, t hat's almost what makes this show amusing, because she's clearly a flawed character and they don't even play it up like she's in the right. She outright says some rather selfish and negative things that are personality traits one shoudl not look to mimic.
It will be interesting if they can actual evolve her into a character people can root for, since if we wanna play devil's advocate, when you consider your high school years I"m sure there are some things you regret, or even ways you may of acted, immature, rude and outright nasty, and as you got older you grew out of it. So if the writers actually have the skills to make their gang frienship make sense as they look past their negative selves from high school and develop into mature adults, it wouldn't be the worse writing.
unfiltered
With that said, this show is far from perfect, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't intrigued to see how they plan to wrap up the season, morbid curiosity, but it's also fascinating to consider what was going on through their heads when they produced this.
@@airget being intrigued to watch this show is like being intrigued to watch kittens get locked inside of a freezer.
Lol I feel like this is what people were saying about Captain Marvel when it came out. But I guess we weren't ready back then. All the people that said this were called oppressive fascists 🤣
If you like horror comedy and want a female lead cast full of characters who are morally questionable yet still likeable and sympathetic (and written by a woman) I recommend 12 Hour Shift.
Mindy Kaling delivers all of her lines the same way, with the same emotion, and it makes me feel like I'm going insane
What surprised me most about this show was how CRUEL so many of the 'jokes' are. There is also an alarming amount of time spent on self loathing and vicious personal attacks against others. Velma comes across as so hateful and bitter
The other jokes are just really crappy throw away references and both are atrocious to say the least, actually atrocious doesn't seem like enough, maybe actual dog shit
i agree! it was so mean sometimes i was like wtf
like they came for everyone and even made fun of the audeince (and it was in a rly mean way, not even banter)
It's interesting that the only thing that keeps Velma's demons away is someone putting themselves below her. The show clearly is telling us she is a narcissist.
Well mindy is an obsessive racist sexist privileged brat, narcissism should've been expected in hindsight lol.
My wife was watching this with me. At roughly the 5 minute mark she said she wanted to watch it so we could properly mock how bad the show was in full context. At the 11 minute mark she retracted that statement and refuses to subject herself to this level of torment. This show isn't just a travesty, it's a fucking war crime.
Hate watching is dumb anyway, all it does is give them more engagements which is what they want in the first place, unless you pirated it.
Smart woman. She's a keeper for sure! 👌
Stop giving attention/views/engagement to shitty people and they will go away. Don't watch shows and content that are shit and we won't get shit shows.
Hate watching is what made this show popular. If anyone wants to suffer while watching Velma they should pirate it.
@@redpanda6497 It didn’t do anything for it. They just cancelled almost all their animated shows and Parrot whatever it’s called was counting social media posts that included the name Velma in it as equivalent to viewership. Plus we watched it through reactions anyways.

This video made me realize why I like watching people react to Velma more than actually watching Velma.
Because it's the normal peoples' reactions to the ridiculousness that's funny
Same I think I’ve watched like 50 review videos LOL
yeah i hadn’t heard anyone else mention that! pretty insightful really
And that's how you do a meta joke, Velma
True! The People watching the show, are part of the Joke! They enable us to make fun of the producer. She is the punchline! 😂

Velma honestly feels like a self-insert fanfiction that Mindy Kaling was given waaaay too much creative freedom on. To be perfectly honest I don't even think she made the cast diverse for "woke points" or whatever, I think she just hired her friends and made their characters self-inserts, too.
I agree, the show gives Mary sue ‘I’m not like the other girls’ energy. Which to be fair, she’s not wrong, she’s just way worse
eh idk. the velma character IS awful but shes not the writer shes only an exec producer.
@@Princeomishore Looking it up, the showrunner and pilot writer is a guy named Charles Grandy who not only worked on The Office, but like half of the first paragraph on him on wikipedia is how often he collaborates with Mindy Kaling. Even without a writer credit, being the lead voice, executive producer, AND a frequent collaborator with the showrunner to begin with, I'm sure Mindy was more than encouraged to do some executive meddling.
That's all of Mindy Kaling's work
@@calamityradio lol then he shouldn't of let her no. she is an actor not a writer.
"Like why do girls have to be so confusing" - Shaggy those 9 words are more funny then this entire show
Worst part about norville is that shaggy was the easiest to emulate adult humor into. Man is a stereotypical stoner in almost every way. He rides around in a van with flowers painted on it every day, talks funny, is constantly fiending (for scooby snacks), always has munchies, dresses in baggy clothes with long hair, and talks to a dog. They only needed to change scooby snacks into edibles and the character would have been written. I don't know how funny it would end up being but it can't be worse than what we got.
It was so obvious that that's almost exactly what they did with him and Scooby twenty years ago on Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, a show that coincidentally was one of the prime examples of taking old properties and repackaging them for a modern audience.
The thing this norville guy isn’t supposed to be shaggy, rather he’s probably one of mindys shitty friends as an insert.
They had that joke in the live action Scooby-Doo movie and it's the funniest joke in the movie.
Funny, but Scooby Snacks became a slang term for valium at one point.
That’s the Shaggy I wanted.
As a brown person, I'm amazed at Mindy Kaling for making a brown Velma that got universally hated in a short span of time lmao
"Stupid dog! You made us look bad!"

@@TwitchyTopHat1 All but Norville imo. He's fine as his own character but he's no Shaggy.
Fellow chocolate person? Yeah, I'd say she's embarrassing us, but it's not like everyone doesn't know this show shouldn't be taken seriously anyways!
The only reason they can race swap people like that, is to hide behind "racist" if the show gets bad reviews.
Another thing about how Velma originally was, in the original 1969 tv show she also wasn't afraid to straight up deck the monsters. Like in the episode Jeepers, It's The Creeper! she takes a wrong corner and faces the Creeper, she says “You wouldn't hit a girl with glasses, would you?” the Creeper then steals her glasses and she kicks him right in the knee
Yea, Velma has always been a badass and the way Mindy treats her makes me doubt it really is her favorite character as she claims
Yeah, I remember that scene, I loved Scooby-Doo when I was a kid, I hate what it has become
Even Mystery Inc. Velma was basically am improvement from classic Velma. Mindy's Velma is just a straight up bitch, nothing redeeming or even funny
the fact that he's laughing at his own jokes and not the jokes in this show shouts volumes

You know what made Scooby Doo a fun and nostalgic show? The fact that the characters, though very different in many ways were friends who had a common goal. They all brought something to the table whether you liked Shaggy and Scooby's wackiness or Fred's leadership, they all were likeable. This crappy show went above and beyond to tear that down completely. Bravo... 👏
Especially Fred, he’s usually such a kind and goofy soul and an actually good role model for positive masculinity when it comes to following the things you like no matter what anyone else thinks, tf did they do to him.
@@enzoarayamorales7220 what's worse is that Fred isn't even the rich one, that's either Daphne or Shaggy depending on the series, it's both in mystery Inc. I think
@@adrianrandom3448 Yeah Shaggy or Norville, yes they used Shaggy's real name in this piece of trash for the Simp, Rodgers has always been stupid rich, he's from like a Billionaire Old Money-family in pretty much any rendition of Scooby Doo, That's always kind of been apart of his shtick he is an easily scared, borderline cowardly, hippie/stoner from a highly conservative uber wealthy family and in most renditions of Scooby Doo, his parents don't believe he is responsible enough to have full to his inheritance so they don't give him full access and set him up with a monitored trust fund that he gets a stipend from. And in Mystery Inc. Daphne is also from a very influential and wealthy family, as is Scooby Doo lol.
Besides, we all know the only reason they could pursue all their different interests and still solve mysteries, was that Shaggy came from money.
You cant have a straight, white, male be a kind person and good leader nowadays though. Didnt you know? Straight, white, males are the demons of society!!
Jesus Christ, I'd heard Mindy had been accused of assault but I'd no idea she'd admitted it live on TV. HOW HAVE I NOT HEARD THIS UNTIL NOW????
Nobody cares if it is a women doing the assaulting.
What I've heard from other reviewers is that Velma staff couldn't get the rights for Scooby himself because the company didn't want him to be tied to a raunchy adult cartoon.
Either way even a Scooby snack couldn't fix the absolute train wreck that is this show.
What I love most about this show is that they tried to make Fred an asshole you're supposed to hate, but because every other character is a bigger asshole, Fred comes out of it looking good because he's delivering the audience the catharsis of the other asshole characters being knocked down a peg.
Great comment but why oh why are there like double spaces between some of your words it's driving me absolutely nuts lmfao
No they didn't, but that's a take, completely understandable if you only watched the first episode. Fred is very pitiable and the whole sitch is very goofy, but in a ecentric rich family on tv way.
Velma really is just the Harley Quinn show without the charm, humor, love for the source material, and everything else that made HQ good
In conclusion: Velma is like show X but without Y, Z, A or B and everything good about it.
Harley Quinn is complete shit as well. And it's as far from the dource material as it gets.

I’m convinced that an ai went through the web, found “funny” words, and then wrote this entire show.
makes sense, considering that AI will write unfunny things about jokes instead of jokes, which is essentially this show
This is the most plausible explanation for this show. They were so lazy that they got a barely functioning AI to write it.
Absolutely not. An AI would have no social opinion and would approach the task with logic alone. I am convinced an AI would be unintentionally funnier than this.

Don't insult AI like that. Even they wouldn't do something this bad.
I’m so glad you included that Conan clip at 1:32. I was disgusted when I heard about it but haven’t heard it come up in anyone else’s reviews. The fact she unashamedly joked about it on live TV with no self awareness, and people laughed along? What the actual hell?
It has came up somewhere else, just can't remember which videos...
I’ve seen it on several other channels where she bragged about sexually assaulting a man then threaten to fire someone if they ratted. If this was a man who did this they’d be Harvey Wiensteined ASAP
Honestly I think a lot of people just don’t know so glad he spread the word. I feel like the laughter seemed awkward like she was smiling and laughing while saying it so they laugh too and sometimes they tell the audience when and how to react to things.

This is the objective truth of practically every show remake or "woke" reimagining. Time after time the team working on these things will tout before the product is released that they're huge fans of the original material, then a while after the product comes out and bombs they show their true colors by either admitting that they hate the material or never even looked at it.

It isn’t just “woke” it’s that it’s corporate wokeness, it’s no longer about actual systemic issues, it’s about parroting as much woke buzzwords and issues they can to appear woke
That's just called being woke though. 3rd wave feminism has very clearly lost interest in systemic issues.

One thing that seriously sketches me out is how sexualized these teens are - the school shower scene, the creepy focus on Fred's genitalia (which I've heard was said to be a draw for Velma herself 🤢)... Like, put them in college if you're gonna do all that (no tiny penis jokes at Fred's expense, though, those aren't funny).
And speaking of Fred... Why is he being mocked over what's likely a medical condition? Why do so many adults feel comfortable with openly discussing a teen's genitals?
because nobody cares about men, especially white men.
Found the micropeen
To be honest, thanks to anime I didn't even realize how wrong this cartoon was for doing that...
I think they mock him over something like that because they just tried too hard to make Fred the unlikeable privileged white guy. I mean come on, they literally wrote him to not recognize people who aren't up to his beauty standards, they can't try any harder.
@@seventeenseventythirteen7465 I've noticed that in anime it's really common to have those "haha super funny" jokes about girls breasts and jealousy between characters due to a different size, for example. Anime kinda desensitises you in some regards, because it's so full of weird tropes and sexualisation.
remember when fred was the dumb lovable leader that had an obsession with making traps and being oblivious to daphne? when velma was the smart girl that figured everything out while still being likable and didn’t act like she was better than everyone else? when daphne was the underestimated girl of the group that actually had substance underneath the whole “pretty dumb girl” facade and she was helpful? when shaggy was just the oblivious goofy stoner that ate scooby snacks and had a fascination with food and his talking dog? when there was a talking dog that made us laugh? remeber when they were a team that were close friends trying to solve mysteries and they all had a part? cause this show ruined that whole point.
That clip of the anime girl getting hit by the bus with a voice over just saying "bonk" made me laugh harder than any of the "jokes" in Velma.
Fr man 💀
True
I was a late bloomer. Believe me it absolutely sucks because people around you are horny all the time and when you don't think about sex as obsessively as they do, they make fun of you. Bein more "inocent" (or more accurately, clueless) than your peers makes it very hard for you to fit in which makes you an easy target for harrassment.
Clearly the writer of Velma thinks it is okay to make fun of people like me.
Same here, except looking back, I realise I was at the very least demisexual. Now about 17 years later, I've come to terms with being asexual, so I definitely feel you there, friend! Especially when you go to an all girls school and you have no clue as to why girls talk about boys all the time. I'm also a nerd.
I get it, it always kinda weirded me out how nonchalant people my age at the time were about sex, as if it was just a walk in the park and not the potentially life ruining, mentally taxing, emotionally riveting, action that it is.

Being meta doesn’t make sense unless the characters acknowledge they’re in a cartoon. Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy don’t do meta too often, but when they do it’s to highlight they know it’s a cartoon, and it works because it’s done sparingly. When people do weird stuff, Mandy or Grim is the one to point out how disgusting, weird, or stupid something is, and Irwin react realistically grotesque and frightening things. Damn, that was such a well written show.
Or how community does it. Abed isn’t actually aware they’re in a tv show but he acts like he is (canonically making the people in the show uncomfortable because they know they’re real people)
Exactly, like one of my favorite 4th wall moments ever is in the cat episode where Mandy literally leaves the episode because she hates the use of yet another animal plot, leaving Billy confused and not knowing how to continue the scene haha
I feel bad for the actors that agreed to play this
No one talked about how Velma apparently never had her glasses until her mom went missing, and somehow she adapted to prescription glasses
Yes!! That’s so stupid, it doesn’t make any sense! Wearing glasses does not need an ‘origin story’
It could have been cute and sad if she just only goes for the same type of model (even if its not trendy or stylish) like her mom used to wear and never wants to change them but why make anything nice in this show 😬
There's a chance that there's no lens in them and she's just wearing empty frames.
Honestly this brand of humour focused excessively around social commentary would make a hell of a lot more sense for a Daria reboot than a Scooby Doo one. It'd still be godawful, and as a fan of Daria who doesn't care about Scooby Doo it'd bother me more, but at least Daria being a mean and judgmental person would make more sense than Velma being one
I would prefer these people refrain to do anything and let actual talented writers do reboots

The worst part of Velma is how you can tell that the animators put their soul into and no one is getting paid for it

@@madamebin1914 yeah it kinda sucks how a job that takes up so much time is so underpaid despite animation being such an important part of media
@@Poisonspidermanfr I agree, but it kinda makes sense...
The reality is that animation IS a highly skill dependent role...but only if you're the art director or a lead animator. It's the rest of the animators who get low pay because the reality is there's plenty people who want the job despite the relatively low pay, AND highly talented animators aren't a necessity for such roles when all they're doing is working within a team to create the same pictures everyone else is doing. A talented/experienced professional would just be faster at his job. So you can just hire two cheaper employees instead.
I still don't think they should be overworked, or payed as little as they do. But you can't just have a really high paying role when there's an abundance of workers with little difference between them.
The better animators who can take a lead animator role tend to get better pay (but they deserve a lot more too) but their skill matters a LOT. As they can essentially control how a scene plays out.
