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.
Featured reviews
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.
They need to remove the comedy tag. Seriously, in no way shape or form could this be considered a comedy.
Imagine taking a kids show and turning it into a disgusting college frat house drama where everyone is a bully and vomiting for laughs. This might be the most hate filled re-interpretation of a cartoon I've ever seen.
The people who created this show obviously have an agenda here. Are they really going for 100% rage views? Is destroying an established franchise going to get them into some secret Hollywood club? Do the creators have some kind of personal vendetta against Scooby-Doo from their childhood? I really don't get it.

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.

This show is one of the worst things I've ever seen, and I would give it 0 stars if I could. I can't believe how poorly written this show is, how mean-spirited it is and how much contempt it has for its source material. It's not like it resonates with people because of the themes of teamwork, or found family, or about how different people with different personalities and goals and outlooks on life can be friends and love each other.
No, we have to character assassinate everyone, especially Fred and have everyone talk in petty, tired and divisive cliches. There's no word for it other than cringe. I am so sick and tired of these types of shows. At least they're keeping Scooby himself out of his this garbage.
Off to palette cleanse with the original show.

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.
