Review of Velma

Velma (2023– )
1/10
Seriously?
15 January 2023
I'll say this: the collection of voice actors they hired for this show is probably the best thing that show has going for it. The "comedy" is...it's just simply awful. Kaling turned a beloved character into a college course on how not to write characters or a show. I forced my way through episode one (really wanted to give this an honest review) but I won't be returning for episode 2...or possibly anything else produced by Kaling (or for that matter Grandy and/or Sekar it seems). Why did they try so hard to destroy the source material? I get that Scooby isn't in it so it was supposed to be its own thing but it almost seems...mean? Like they made it while angry at fans of the original? This one just sailed over the goal. Oh well. HBO Max is more like HBO Minimum now I guess...
