A failed attempt at making an animated "Always Sunny in Philadelphia" or a new "Daria" for modern sensibilities. The jokes fall flat. The characters not being likable seems to be by intention ala Always Sunny or "Married with Children" or theA failed attempt at making an animated "Always Sunny in Philadelphia" or a new "Daria" for modern sensibilities. The jokes fall flat. The characters not being likable seems to be by intention ala Always Sunny or "Married with Children" or the "World of Jerkass" trope on TV Tropes; you are not supposed to be rooting for Velma, though most Youtube reviewers have found a soft-spot for Fred as he is merely ignorant with horrible overbearing parents instead of selfish & malignant like the rest of the cast. The art & coloring are good compared to anything on Nick or CN, but the shading & highlighting could have been pushed further. The show improves by episode 4 when the show starts to build lore. The characters do not mature or learn from past mistakes. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I feel like the folks who wrote this show were tripping on a special type of acid and really forgot what they learnt at writing school. The show is all over the place, it claims it wants to be a murder mystery but it really isn’t. It’s more about an obnoxious teenage self righteous nerd (Velma), trying to find herself. And whole mystery panic attack thing is another doll addition. It’s not entirely terrible, there are a few giggles here and there, but the fact that the show isn’t coherent quickly erases the good from it. If the show wasn’t a Scooby Doo IP, I might have given it a 4.5/10. Which is still bad but at least a better score. The show feels like it’s written by serious amateurs or high school students and not professional scriptwriters. Expand

It is generic, quite flat, and also, full of hatred towards others. Grandy wrote for SNL (128 episodes), even for The Daily Show under Jon Stewart. Granted, he did not do anything worth mentioning for 10 years. But, please, he must have done something right in his life. So, how come he messed up Velma so hard? Velma is probably an example of an aging writer who is pessimistic about the world, but instead of creating his own IP and legacy, he borrows a child's series? And then he turns it upside down, mocking the characters, and harming other characters. But what for? Really, during his SNL time, he did not learn anything about uniqueness and audience? How did the mess of Velma pass the exec producers, managers, animators, and voice actors? No internal criticism? Could the production company be internally somewhat dysfunctional? Expand

A series for those who hate Scooby-Doo (as well as detectives and good humor). The authors pile on tons of cringe.
And believe me, this is far from a case of "so bad it's even good". More than anything, this show resembles an adaptation of a fanfic written by a 14-year-old schoolgirl.
There is no: interesting plot, atmosphere or funny jokes.

But a separate mention must be made of the characters, they just took and twisted the characters we have known since 1969. And I'm not talking about the change of skin color and sexual orientation (very strange decisions), but about the characters themselves: Velma is no longer a smart girl detective, she became very rude and unpleasant, Daphne is a drug dealer, Fred became a hysterical freak, and Shaggy - well, he's just a piece of garbage.

I think Charlie Grandy, the writers and Mindy Kaling should be cancelled for this.

The show attempts to tailor itself as for adults although the humour is at most something that a kid or teenager would find entertaining. Overall, it's an insult to anyone who has even the tiniest bit of enjoyment of Scooby-Doo.

What bugs me about this show is the unfunny, cut-rate humor, and effortless acting, except for Sam Richardson, who acted pretty decently here. I have liked Mindy Kaling as an actress. She is absolutely funny. As a creator, I can't be so sure of that. The sooner HBO Max kills this show, the better. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Абсолютно тупой юмор, ненужные изменения внешнести и характера персонажей, провокационные кадры и неплохая рисовка. Главная героиня не уважает никого, она похотливая, злопамятная, и как бы это не странно она расистка. Это она подозревала Фреда в убийсте только из за того что он белый богатый мужчина. Кто тут расист?
Это ещё не всё, она не остановилась, она смеялась над итальянцами и т.д.
Издевалась над лжеШегги после того как он предложил ему свидания. Она не ставит никого в серьоз. Когда авторША этого сериала сказала что образ Велмы взята из ее жизни я все понял. Это не сериал о Велме. Это сериал о жизни закомплексованной дуре которая решила выговориться через сериал. Ведь если она это сделает в реальной жизни, скорее она получит по голове.
Встречайте худшая экранизация Скуби-Ду (в котором нет самого Скуби-Ду). Позор

I, for one, isn't shocked by this. Normally a show with these laughable ratings would be cancelled - of course - but shows that has a clear agenda pretty much always get one or two seasons more until it's finally cancelled, because 1. Excuses, pushing blame and total incapability to admit they might actually suck at this. "We're just being review bombed! There CAN'T be other reasons!" 2. The network is afraid of bringing down the axe, in fear of being called this or the other.
My advice to the networks: just stop encouraging shows like this. Stop wasting money on shows that undoubtedly will be cancelled and forgotten 1 or 2 years down the line anyways.

The show is so bad that a lot of people think it was created to get viewers into „Hate watching“ to boost viewership and social media presence. Also it is a Scooby-Doo show without Scooby-Doo while you barley recognize the other characters. I would not recognize Velma, Shaggy (aka Norville) or Daphne. Fred I would recognize by looks but he is dumb down to incompetent moron. I feels so different that I would not be surprised if this was something completely different before they added the Scooby-Doo name. I loved the Scooby-Doo cartons as kid and have watched dozens of episodes. With this the show feels like an insult in comparison. To be fair the animations are good and the voice actors deliver their roles. I would not hold a bad script against a voice actor or actor. The script and changes are the main source of the problems. Do not pull out the misogyny or racist defense as this is not the case. We nerds like strong female leads like Ellen Ripley, Buffy, the original Velma, Dr. Jordan Cavanaugh and many more. Diversity is neither a problem. I like Peter Grant, Rozie Oshodie, Michelle Yeoh and many other characters. A bad show is just a bad show. Look at “House of Dragons” for comparison how they silenced the critics with awesome characters, a great story and a huge entertainment value. Overall I have to give a 0/10 which pains me for a Scooby-Doo show but there was no other choice. Expand

Astonishingly bad series. Inexplicable that it got renewed for a second season. Perhaps it was the result of all the hate-watching.

This abomination took a wholesome show for everybody, removed the beloved dog, changed the teenagers and added sex and weirdo fetishes into the mix.
The characters are racist, sexist, narcissist, stupid and devoid of self-awareness. The main character is resolutely abject.

How was this not cancelled?
How was this renewed for a second season?

It was difficult to watch. I was hoping for a modern reboot of the mystery team. What I've got was a poorly written commentary of american struggle with first world problems

So many 'jokes' can be summed up by 'because white males SUCK!'. The writer's lack such awareness of what they write in an attempt to virtual signal, that they end up being r@cist and s3xist. Were this show to race & gender reverse the jokesSo many 'jokes' can be summed up by 'because white males SUCK!'. The writer's lack such awareness of what they write in an attempt to virtual signal, that they end up being r@cist and s3xist. Were this show to race & gender reverse the jokes to be about black people or any other race, the show would be canceled in seconds and the writers would never have jobs again. The second grave sin committed by this show is how the show takes nothing from the actual scooby doo series other than it's a mystery and velma solves mysteries. I’ve seen shows disrespect its source material, but I’ve never seen a show which disrespects the original series this much and convinces me that the writers have also never seen or heard of scooby doo before. Freddy is just an ‘evil white male’ stereotype. Daphene is an ‘evil hot white b****’ stereotype. Shaggy is not a hippy, looks and acts nothing like shaggy and has a secret crush on Velma. Velma is an aggressive woke feminist.

The show tries so hard to be meta, and edgy, constantly breaking the 4th wall, awkwardly adding nudity of minors (15 year olds). The show, while trying to fight the ‘evil s3xist creepy white males’ ends up sexualizing children! It doesn’t get more ironic than that. I’m sure the Velma show runners are patting themselves on their rumps, that they have generated so much publicity for this show, using the same tired tactic that it must be racists and sexists who dont like the show and that’s why some people think it’s bad. No, it’s just a bad show. Regardless of your political affiliation, this show is pure cringe.

Try making your own IP instead of ruining others. Just like, use your brain to come up with a world and some characters, then write a story about them. It's not hard.

I expected a garbage show with the most horrible jokes and a complete failure at representation and holy mother of Scooby-Doo's grave (Since they decided to delete him from existence), it is far worse than I EVER expected. Nothing about thisI expected a garbage show with the most horrible jokes and a complete failure at representation and holy mother of Scooby-Doo's grave (Since they decided to delete him from existence), it is far worse than I EVER expected. Nothing about this show is remotely close to getting me to feel any positive emotion or does anything even close to making these characters likeable in the slightest. You idiots were warned about your decisions from fans of the show and even the casual viewers of it yet you still went through with producing this botched, aimless trash heap as if you actually think you're doing something "unique". Piss off with the forced race switching, genuinely nobody asked for it in any alternate time line. Instead of writing entirely new characters, you modified these lovable characters who I personally grew up with absolutely adoring and just ruined them in all aspects, Shaggy isn't even close to his character before so at this point, just write in a new character and he could be black and nobody would care if you just bothered to write him into the story correctly. I miss Scooby, I miss Shaggy, I miss Daphne, I miss Fred, I even miss that stupid Scrappy-Doo dog cause even he was even written better than whatever this lame excuse of a show is meant to be.

Thanks for the laughs at you HBO, not this show as it's more boring than watching paint dry, you **** genuinely made me hate Scooby Doo now so thank **** all your garbage is still not in the UK.

The plot is boring, the only things that the real Scooby-Doo characters have in common with these botched sad excuses are their names and clothes. The jokes are painful, to say the least. Usually, they'll either joke about something meta or about Fred's small penis size. They repeat the same types of jokes over and over again and they literally feel AI-generated. This show is the equivalent of the juice that comes out of your trash bag when you forget to throw it out. Do not watch if you value your time and mental health. Expand
