How Velma Ruined Cartoons Forever
Ойын-сауық
Has anyone heard of Velma (2023 - 2024)? It's Bad. This animated TV show, created by HBO Max, is a spin-off of the beloved Scooby-Doo cartoon series. Sadly, Velma is known as a overly raunchy, unfunny, failing satire of a cartoon, that quite frankly just isn't very good. With performances by Mindy Kaling, Sam Richardson, Constance Wu, and Gelnn Howerton, this politically driven show is obnoxiously bad.
ALSO, THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME I WATCHED THIS SHOW EVER. I ONLY WATCHED THE FIRST EPISODE SINCE IT'S JUST NO THAT INTERESTING. THE NEW SECOND SEASON COMES OUT SOON THOUGH. APRIL 25TH OR SOMETHING. MIGHT WATCH IT THEN. IDK. PROBABLY NOT.

Dive into the controversial world of "Velma," the animated TV show that reimagines the origin story of the classic Scooby-Doo character, Velma Dinkley. Voiced by Mindy Kaling, who also serves as executive producer, this series aims to offer a fresh take on the mystery genre but has struggled to resonate with audiences, earning its reputation for its divisive humor and drastic departure from the beloved original series. Fans of adult animated shows like "Rick and Morty" or "BoJack Horseman" might find "Velma" an interesting watch, although it's generally viewed unfavorably by critics and longtime Scooby-Doo fans. Join us as we explore what sets "Velma" apart, for better or worse, in this unique addition to animated adult storytelling. 🕵️♀️👓 #velma #cartoon #videoessay

You know when a show sucks so much, it feels like a parody of itself. That pretty much sums up the recent worst rated animated shows. They're not actual shows, they're awful parodies of one. Every woke and predictable garbage, cliche and stereotype came true and then some.

Velma has all the bad stereotypes of adult cartoons dialled to infinity. Unlikeable characters, too much swearing to the point of irritation, bad animation and character designs, plots that go nowhere, gratuitous violence for the sake of gratuitous violence, inappropriate nudity and feeling like it was made by immature secondary school pupils who don't know how people behave in real life.

For Norville, that's Shaggy's real name. I remember in one of the Scooby Doo movies he said that his name is Norville but everyone calls him Shaggy As for the show itself.

If I was tasked with writing a new Scooby Doo show with complete creative freedom I would have the show focus on Fred. Strange events happen and he basically tries to start his own ghost hunting business. Shaggy is the only one who agrees with him because Shaggy snuck into the school after hours to eat all the Chicken nuggets and Pizza and saw something weird. Velma tells him it’s all scientifically impossible, but she gets captured, sees something that she can’t explain and gets rescued by Fred and Shaggy. Scooby and Daphne would also be introduced and join the team later.

I would go grim dark almost like mystery incorporated style with them waking up in an asylum and some sort of apocalypse is going on with them trying to survive and find out what happened, have the first ep be a two partier where the first half is them waking up and regroup and near the end have them find a corpse or kill an actual monster, the beginning of the second half would be them thinking its a person in disguise or something and panicking trying to get help thinking this is some sort of elaborate trick as they don't know where they are and are "alone"

The reason why it got a second season simply because it’s ALREADY PLANNED. They just split the seasons. Nothing to do with viewership.
That’s a loaded title. Fiona and Cake came out months after and it’s widely regarded to be one of the best adult animated series. Also the among us show is showran by Owen Dennis, the guy who showran infinity train.

It gets worse, Asian depiction in this show is outright bad. All are depicted doing some sort of crime
Remember. Don’t hate watch this show. You’ll only give it more views.
The only way the show could be worse is if they got Kimiko Glenn or Awkwafina to play Daphne
It genuinely surprised me to know that Mindy Kaling post-Velma, still continues to play Val Little in Season 2 of Monsters at Work when she stopped playing Disgust in Inside Out 2. After everybody got angry at Charlie Grandy and Mindy Kaling for ruining Scooby-Doo, I just naturally assumed that Mindy Kaling was either done playing nice characters or not welcome to act anywhere else, especially not for kid-friendly programming where everybody would hate her for trashing Scooby-Doo.

Velma didn't "Ruin Cartoons Forever", there are so many cartoons that are still amazing to this day and are way better than this garbage excuse for a show.
Imagine the among us TV show will be like what happened to cyberpunk after edgerunners
The thing that's most sus... Any other show would have been cancelled. Especially with the numbers this garbage produced.
9:30 "Norville" is actually Shaggy's real name in the original Scooby-Doo. "Shaggy" was always his nickname.
It isn't even 2 seasons, it one cut in half so they could rip off their own artists
"I thought they were older, for some reason" Yes, the shower scene would probably make you want to do that.

Just watch Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated if you want an edgy Scooby doo show.
15:04 Be glad... Somehow it gets worse... like every episode it gets worse...
Her mother saw a toddler walking on the freeway, drove a mile past, and then she disappeared with her snacks.
Let's just say....watching that show would be when you'd want to have time travel exist so you could stop yourself from watching it.
Norville is apart of shaggy’s name if I recall, depending on the variation, shaggy’s family is the one who funds the Mystery Inc! Not Daphne or her family, Shaggy actually comes from riches, bc look at his uncle, very dapper and well dressed man with a monocle on and a cool mustache! 😂
If it was so great, then where are all the feminists and LGBT people it was tailored for?
I think it got a second season was because all the hate watching that happened and in the second season (this is spoilers and idk if its true or not i haven't and won't watch Velma) is that velma gets killed by scrappy doo
Well we are going to have Velma season 2
Don't ya just hate that great cartoons got to die and terrible cartoons like THIS got to keep going?
“This show tries….” I don’t think it’s even “trying” other than trying to be unlikable.
don’t know how but this so called “show” gotten so much worse, not to mention ruin a character that had the potential to come back to Scooby Doo
0:32 The Among us show can go in different ways, it has potential to be a good show
Shaggy's real name is Norville but he always goes by his nickname in the other iterations. If it's not broke don't fix it, but I guess Velma didn't get the memo
I love Scooby Doo so I hate the Velma show really really alot
For me its the fact that theyre all supposed to be in high school... and they have a nude scene like right away. Like bro thats CP right there 💀
What's next ? the worst Knockoff Cartoons movie
Velma ran so that other animation opportunities could walk away.
_The Venture Brothers_ treated Scooby Doo with more respect and maturity than Mindy, and they based their characters off literal serial killers.
Shaggy isn’t a stoner, he’s a beatnik
So did Maxwell Atoms and C.H. Greenblatt.
Can't wait to hatewatch season 2 with everyone else on the 25th!
You know the show has issues when the good ol 3am story making has better storytelling than an entire studio
The among Us TV show does have some things going for it. It's being helmed by the creator of Infinity Train and that was a damned good cartoon. And it has a very impressive cast.
To be fair they probably had to come out with a season two because they have contracts but even then this is just my guess and they shouldn’t have said yes to doing something like this in the first place…
norville rogers is shaggy's real name
Its like watching rick and morty, if rick and morty had none of its redeeming qualities.

Most people have said season 2 is good.
It's Mindy dressed as Velma because if it wasn't the case nobody would give this show a second glance.
I have seen theories that this was supposed to be something else entirely but Warner Bros. would only green light it if another pre existing IP was shoehorned in. It wouldn't surprise me if this theory is either true or false because this show is just an example of what companies do nowadays
Adult Swim already did that, guy. Robot Chicken. Nuff said!
I think a lot of people are just hating the show cause that’s the trend not the greatest show but it definitely no just stale toilet water
Dude you should not have given half a star for the panic attack thing. They nuked it later on 💀
Shaggy's name was Norville in the original as well.
To this point Darzii its just a filthathon. Everybody is trying to see who can make the absolute worst piece of shit imaginable so anyone who can top velma is practically a hero to this point. Not that topping a pile of shit is anything to write home about.
I think Velma was continued because everybody was watching it only to hate it
Season 2? Who the hell asked for this?
If people stop hate watching TTG and this, then they both will lose money and get canceled
I am so sad Dennis is in a show that got 1.6 stars, he’s clearly a 5 star man
Why can't Mindy just make up new characters make them horrible in an awful show? Why does she have to use good characters from an awesome show and turn it to Arby's dumpster water?
Norville is Shaggy’s legal name
First season was more interesting, but I liked season two as well. This is Mad Magazine's take on it, satirical weirdness, and the stuff of future cult status.
Norville is Shaggy's real name. Shaggy is a nickname
Norville is shaggy’s real name. Shaggy is just a nickname.
Almost 100% serten season 2 is part of batch one of episodes they ordered and cut season 1 in half so don't have to pay more for a second season
I don’t understand how it got a season 2. The only thing good about this show is the animation
1:29 DRY OUT!?!!
Feels more like Meg than velma and even still
For me I think the show would have been better as a parody of the mystery tropes rather than a social commentary with a very bad Scooby-Doo paint job. At least like that it would have been a mid story not trying to capitalize on an existing franchise.
Velma is one of those who uses well established IP to get attention. They don't care about Scooby Doo, all they care about is SocioPolitics. It is a shame cuz some animation is just well made. Good animation doesn't fix bad writing tho.
Hold up, they made a 2nd Ryan George?
