Velma

I heard how bad this was so had to see for myself.

I was expecting to be laughing at how atrocious it was but it's not even bad enough to laugh at, like some terrible shows and movies. This was just so bad it was hard to believe what I was watching. My mouth was open in astonishment at how revolting it was.

How the hell did this get made? It's abysmal on every level. It's not even a train wreck. A train is on it's way performing its duty before it crashes. This train never left the construction yard. Shame the idea did.

The jokes aren't funny. It's not cool. It's not hip. It's the opposite. It's majorly offensive. Offensive for two reasons.

One for how terrible it is and it is really bottom of the barrel terrible, and two for it's obvious sexism and racism. What an absolute insult, really, to anyone with half a shred of respectability. I'm just staggered that this even exists.

And to have it based on a CHILDREN'S decades long loved series is just mind blowing. It's wrong.

Shame on the execs who passed this giant steaming turd. Every single person involved with green lighting and creating this 'show' deserves to never work again.

One of the worst programs ever made. Without exaggeration.

Writing sucks, jokes don't land, doesn't feel like scooby doo at all.

More like they wrote a show and put scooby doo characters over their own characters.

This is the type of show you start watching and you literally can't bring yourself to finish it because it hurts to watch, even if it wasn't scooby doo related it'd still be awful.

The humor is like I'm watching family guy or big mouth, but instead of there being a joke, it's literally just a pop culture reference with no "funny" attached to it.

If shows were to be represented with cereal, this show would definitely be a bowl of wheat with no milk. No flavor, no comedy, nothing.

Honestly I'd actually rather eat a bowl of wheat instead of watch this.

This show literally insults you. I've never known a show to actively try and make you hate it, this is abominable and one of the worst things I've ever seen, I can't stand it. It feels like a straight up slap in the face and I cannot stress this enough, it doesn't even have SCOOBY-DOO in it, what in the everloving God? I have no clue how this got greenlit and the okay from the higher-ups because I'd rather get hemorrhoids than watch anymore of this. It's mentally tiring and I've never sighed from disappointment more than I have while watching this poor excuse for a show... Cancel this, please.

This was atrocious. I watched the entire first episode and did not laugh once. Not even a chuckle. The jokes were so juvenile, so heavy handed and the premise so far removed from the original IP, it was embarrasing. I was checking my watch throughout the episode. They made 27 minutes feel like an hour. Will she ever find her mom? I do not know, nor do I care. Why is this series about sex and what does any of the random sexual situations have to do with Scooby Doo? I also don't know, nor care. Speaking of which, where is Scooby and Shaggy? Shouldn't they be a part of this too? If the one kid is supposed to be Shaggy, I only assume because of his clothes, then I would like nothing to do with this alternate universe version of Scooby Doo. Personally, I feel like HBO and Mindy Kaling owe everyone and apology for this abomination of a series.

This show HATES its audience. It should not have been named Velma. Even the dubbing is odd. Glenn Howerton basically plays Dennis from IASIP as usual but in Fred's body. Daphne is crass, mean and vulgar and Velma is Mindy Kailing.

I don't understand why this is what we get when attempting something adult with the Scooby Doo IP. No one asked for this. The hate is warranted - it's an acceptable, albeit unfunny animation show that thinks it's a lot better than it is.

This was my main issue with the first two episodes: you can tell the writer's room was comprised of mostly "yes" people who thought every idea was edgy and current. Instead the finished product resulted in a convoluted, mean-spirited and just all around embarrassing start.
