    Summary

    Reviewers say 'Velma' has mixed reactions, with criticisms of poor writing, unlikable characters, and a departure from original Scooby-Doo charm. Humor is often deemed unfunny, and social commentary is seen as heavy-handed. Animation quality is praised, and some appreciate modernization attempts. However, many feel it fails to capture the original essence. Voice acting, especially Mindy Kaling's Velma, is criticized as uninspired. A minority enjoys the show's unique take and humor.

    A rare occasion when the rating is accurate

    When you see reviews about a TV Show, usually there are two extremes. One side loves the show for its biases, and the other hates it. This is a rare occasion where the general audience opinion comes together and the majority is united in agreeing that this show is truly the lowest tier in almost every way possible.

    Poorly written dialogues, inconsistent animation, and some of the saddest attempts at humor since Transylmania.

    This show is only capable of satisfying a tiny group of people, which consists of the writers and kids with an underdeveloped sense of life that is solely based on Social Media. This show proves that we truly do need a 0 rating in IMDB, a new low in modern media.

    Absolutely garbage in every sense

    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.

    Worse than people say

    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.

    It's a disgrace

    It needs to be canceled Immediately and whoever approved this needs be fired it isn't funny It's cringe and offensive it has nothing to do with Scooby-Doo and it is destroying any versions of the velma character it is way to snarky and I don't see how anyone can find it entertaining what is wrong with HBO I'm tempted to cancel my subscription because I don't want to associate myself with people who put out crap like this I hope it backfires and blows up in your face also whoever finds this show entertaining needs to check their own morals Please do better Warner Brothes and put out better shows like Johnny Bravo.

    You can tell the creators think it's hysterical

    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.
