Do you think Velma was the worst cartoon of 2023? I know its been said a million times, but I had to watch this for myself to see if its really is THAT bad... Follow me on Twitter to stay updated on everything I do: twitter.com/Darzii_
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.
The only difference is that Velma is dogsh*t with 0 fans while all the other ones have loyal fanbases... Okay, well maybe not ALL of them, but the big names, at least.
@@Attmay People say everybody because it's easier than saying the exact number of people. Yes, there's gonna be someone out there who likes Velma. Good on them, glad they like it, but when above 80% percent dislike it, people will usually resort to everybody because it's easier to say than getting the exact number.
Honestly I kind of agree, the animation and art are one of the better things about the series (plus I haven’t seen the rest of the series, and honestly I don’t want to, so I can’t give my own thoughts on everything else).
@@evenhartwick4422 He is called Shaggy because of his shaggy hair. But of course they changed everything here and left only the names and the clothes. And in this series they use his real name. Norville Rogers. Nickname Shaggy.
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. Scooby Doo is obviously a beloved franchise and has been for a very long time. Why they decided to make something like *this* is beyond me.
@Glue_Gunner I know right they love to use "diversity" as a shield for bad animation/characters and when you talk about how it sucks they pull the race card, like make your own character and leave what we know and love alone it's not hard to use the same world or settings just don't have them be related unless you can do it right or for some joke/bit like none of this is even similar or relates to the show it wants to "copy"
@Glue_Gunnerblack washing is something I’ve noticed in shows or movies that are garenteed to be bad. Im 99 percent sure they just made shaggy black and Velma Indian so if anyone hated on it they can say “they just hate this show because it has blacks and Indians in it” I’ve said it before and I’ve said it again if your gonna make a show that takes place in the same universe as the source material and you’re gonna change the characters body’s, skin color and personality’s why not just make them entirely new characters? Why does this have to be the scooby gang and not some other group of mystery solvers that just so happen to be in the scooby doo universe?
Same here. I saw the special CN Those Meddling Kids, Scooby Doo special which explains the characters. Shaggy's full real name is Norville Buzz Roger, and he also has the biggest belt bucket collection in the world.
@@nathanhendrickson790 blackwashing isn't all bad. The most famous blackwashed character was Nick Fury but he was backed by a talented actor. Instead of the character making the actor popular, it's the other way around and they even changed his comic character black because of Samuel L Jackson.
"The opening is not that bad..." This is where I'll remind you that those bodies you were blurring out because they were naked, were 15-year-old naked bodies. So there's that.
It’s not even the Velma we grew up with. It’s just Mindy Kayling in a cheap Velma costume living out her high school fantasies because she was the unlikable weird kid
worst of all, Mindy never even watched or cared about scooby doo. not a single JINKIES! in 2 seasons. this is not velma at all. this is an annoying voice by Mindy pretending that she can do comedy. what a joke.
@@BobRooney290oh no jinkies is in the show so are skunks and jeepers, they’re just drugs, they sell drugs called those things because comedic throw back and “changing things up”
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"
To be fair with the cops suspecting her being the murderer, the body was in her locker and also she just assaulted someone with a cane for no reason. Other than that the show doesn't make sense it's horrible.
The show actually gets worse, also the panic attacks scenes are the best animated parts of the show, but it’s a concept that gets abandoned, so you don’t even get those later on.
@@TheRealDarzii Yep….it’s like the show is so dedicated at being a completely joyless experience, it even decides to remove the one thing that people may conceivably enjoy about it.
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.
Shaggy's actual name is Norville, it's been stated in other movies and shows but he's always used Shaggy as a nickname ------------------------------- (In the Blair witch Ripoff) V- "And that's Norville Rogers" S- "It's Shaggy, like no one calls me Norville"
To those babbling about hate watching: Nope. Season 2 was ordered with season 1. Extremely common practice for animation. Hate watching was never real, and just a way to silence its critics.
If Velma was a psycho murderer & she misled the rest of the gang so innocent people were framed for her crimes? Then you might have a premise, but this?
Actually, I heard that they were making season 2 before season 1 released. It’s possible that HBO wanted to release season 2 just to save money. That could also be a reason as to why season 2 is barely being advertised.
Oh my fucking god !!!! it is NOT our fault season 2 was planned before the show even aired, can people stop saying this stupid misconception already !!!!!!
@@TheRealDarzii no it's been norville since either the original where are you or A pup named Scooby Doo. Also the creators never intended him to be a stoner.
Yeah better written show would have had the opening scene be a cold open with Easter eggs for future episodes. Like Roaches having sex could be an indicator that there 2 disgusting people in a sexual relationship.
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?
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.
9:17 In Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated, it was revealed that Shaggy was just a nickname and Norville is his true name (at least I think it was so, since it's been a while that I watched the series) 😅
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.
I always wanted there to be an adult version of Scooby-Doo. And there's nothing wrong with doing something different. But it still has to be done right. And from what I'm seeing...I'm just down right disappointed - because this animated spin-off series of the famous Scooby-Doo franchise...sucks completely! This is both bad writing and woke/meta to its fullest. It is full of terribles jokes, characters, and plots. And I obviously can't forget about the pointless race-swapping, or the unnecessary gay romance, or the constant attempt of dated jokes. This whole thing was like a bitter resentment to the whole fandom. The humor in the show is just hateful and insensitive, instead of funny and insightful. There is absolutely nothing to like or enjoy about this show - especially the main character (or any other character to be honest), as they are all downgraded. There is no character development or growth throughout the entire first season. And so no one learns anything, or really pays for the vile things they have done (at least when it comes to Velma). And I get that people hate watched it, but some people simply watched it because curiosity just got the better of them. And because of woke culture (which I strongly despice), if you don't like anything terrible done by a woman, it means that you're sexist and are attacking them - in short terms, agree and like everything we do, and keep your personal opinions to yourself. And while I support feminism...I despice feminist; as many of them aren't looking for equality, they just want control and to vent out their frustrations and blame men for everything (including things that they themselves are at fault for). Man or woman, everyone is going to face struggles...the life of men isn't significantly easier. Norville (a.k.a Shaggy) is now an African American whose sole purpose is to simp over Velma, and basically be her personal tool/punching bag; Daphne is now an East Asian American who is always bitching and whining, and is basically unappreciative of everything she has; Fred is still a Caucasian male, but is so spoiled, cuddled and dimwitted, that he is absolutely helpless when it comes to even the simplest of things; and finally there's Velma, who is now a South Asian American, as well as being entitled, possessive, controlling, manipulative, narcissistic, hypocritical, judgemental, sexist, and racist. To make matters worse, all three characters practically become obsessed with winning Velma's affection and attention - but why, when there is absolutely nothing to love (let alone like) about her. And Velma having a thing for a woman, doesn't make her gay...it makes her bisexual - because she's had crushes on men before any of this mess. The adults are also no better, heck, they might actually be worse because they're the adults, and should know better - especially Fred's parents: having a father who is completely disappointed on how spoiled and helpless his own son turned out despite the fact that he is the reason for it by giving Fred all the chances money can buy and never allowing Fred to solve things on his own; and Fred's mother who also cuddled him to the point where he sees their overbearing and unhealthy relationship as normal. Velma's father is also no better, as her father cares a lot more about his career and spoiling his much younger girlfriend, than to guide or advice his own daughter. Norville's dad is a bad therapist and a beta male, who always allows others to walk all over him. And Daphne's adoptive lesbian parents are completely incompetent detectives (and it's not even funny). Velma is in no way a sympathetic character or victim...she's the real villain of the story. It really makes you appreciate the original gang even more. They were a group of real friends from different backgrounds, and had different strengths and weaknesses that helped them out of almost any challenge they got themselves in. Fred may have been a dumb jock, but he was still creative and reliable; Daphne may have been slightly superficial, but she was still friendly and trustworthy; Velma may have been a socially awkward know-it-all, but she still helped out in anyway she could; and Shaggy and Scooby may have been complete fraidy-cats, but they were always willing to do their parts for the friends. This show really only gets points for it's animation quality. And while I do enjoy a nude scene, these girls are in high school - why not just put them in college, and make them eighteen and over? Plus, when characters are called out on their toxicity and when others finally stand up for themselves...the show ends up making them look like the bad guys for doing so. Why couldn't the show take ideas or inspirations from more dark and serious material - like the "Scream" franchise, or the "Saw" franchise, or the "Halloween" franchise, or the "Hannibal Lecter" franchise, or even "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer" and "Citizen X".
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.
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 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
I'm pretty sure in the old cartoons somewhere shaggys real name is mentioned once and I could see it being a name like this. Asked my hubby and he says it was Velma that figured it out and it really was norvill
Until this video, I had absolutely no idea that such a series exists at all (especially since rather Scooby and Sha'a Gi, pardon Shaggy, are the figureheads) :O
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
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! 😂
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
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…
Point made, but you really shouldn't be having that as your title. If cartoons are truly ruined FOREVER, then why are there still a bunch of good ones being made today, like Invincible for example. Velma may of been a horrible cartoon, but there's always good ones out there being made that learn from the bad movies follies.
I watched both seasons to see if its as bad as everyone says and yes,the first season isn't the best, especially the first episode but as the show is progressing it lowing its bad sexual jokes,bad dark humor and focuses on velmas hallucinations and the case she tries to resolve it also shows a lot of things happening at the same time for some reason which is kinda giving me a headache but the jokes are not as bad not as sexual the characters are developing and their relationships get ok-ish,my personal opinion is that the cases they written for the show are not that bad and could work if the people behind the writing would work to make it more suitable for characters that are underage
You're being misinformed. Velma was created by Charlie Grandy, not Mindy Kaling. She is only a VA and a producer. And she only wrote 1 episode of the first season. The character is not about her, so stop trying to make her look bad to defend a man.
@@do-not-subscribe Mindy IS one of the two creators you idiot, and she is the main cursor for the plot your bullshit will not work here, that creep is a racist ass ugly whore whit deep envy/fetichism of white people.
As a long time fan of Scooby Doo, i can tell you that Shaggy's real name has always been Norville. Shaggy is just a nickname, which when paired with his whole demeanor and love of food, was meant to support the implication that he was a stoner. If I remember correctly, the Mystery Machine belonged to Shaggy originally, which would explain why it looked like a hippy van. As a side note, I actually kind of love the theory that Fred is the one who drove the Mystery Machine because Shaggy was always too stoned to drive his own van. That would make for such an interesting dynamic between Shaggy and Fred in a better version of an adult Scooby Doo show. I would love to see an adult Scooby Doo series where we get to see Fred taking care of Shaggy when he's super high. That's the friendship dynamic I need to see!
What you on about Shaggy's name was Shaggy until 1991 furthermore the show started as in Scooby-Doo where are you? In 1969 and he was Shaggy not Norvile so drop that long time fan BS because what in 1991 the new show runners said it was always Norvile but we didn't say it for 30+ years
@@TheSobieskiukas after doing a little light research, you are indeed correct good sir or madam. The first time it was ever established that Shaggy's real first name was Norville, was in the late 80s/early 90s from a show called "a pup named Scooby Doo" which depicted the Scooby gang as children, by producer Tom Ruegger. I personally know that Velma (the character, not the show) referred to Shaggy as Norville in the show "Mystery Incorporated" on at least one occasion, meaning the name was also cannon in _at least_ one other Scooby Doo series. However, you could have been more respectful in your reply. I can acknowledge that as an autistic person, I have a tendency to phrase things in a way that is easily misinterpreted. When I said I was a "long time fan" of Scooby Doo, I did *not* mean that I have been a fan ever since the show's inception, I meant that I have had an obsession with the series all throughout my childhood, partly do to the fact that it was one of the few shows my mother would allow me to watch, and partly because I felt that I could relate to Fred (I was obsessed with Rube Goldberg machines as a kid). My first Scooby Doo experience was with "What's Knew, Scooby Doo?" which ran during the early 2000s, whereas the very first Scooby Doo show was "Scooby Doo, where are you?" which ran during the early 70s, before I was even born. Although, I did still see some of that first show. You could have said, "I think you're misremembering", or "I don't think that's right", or "you might want to fact check that", or "that's not how I remember it", or a million other things that would have been miles more respectful than "your not a real fan, so quit with your BS". I know for a fact that you are not a mind reader, you are not my mom, you are not my sisters, you do not _know_ me. So do not presume to know what I am and am not a fan of. Being told by other people what I think and feel or what I like and don't like is on my personal list of top 10 things I loathe the most in the world, because one of my sisters did it to me often growing up. You should learn to be nicer and more respectful to people, it's called common courtesy. And just because someone is wrong about something, it does not give you a license to be nasty to them. I did my best to be civil and to do my due diligence by fact checking myself. I admitted I was wrong, but other people might not do the same. Generally, people will be more likely to listen to you if you treat them with respect, especially if you are correcting them. No one likes a know-it-all jerk. So for your sake, soften up your language and be nicer if you want people to actually listen to what it is you have to say. Edit: also, as a side note, it was kind of difficult understanding what you were saying, since you left out some crucial punctuation.

It isn't even 2 seasons, it one cut in half so they could rip off their own artists
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?
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.
_The Venture Brothers_ treated Scooby Doo with more respect and maturity than Mindy, and they based their characters off literal serial killers.
9:17 In Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated, it was revealed that Shaggy was just a nickname and Norville is his true name (at least I think it was so, since it's been a while that I watched the series) 😅
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.
Remember. Don’t hate watch this show. You’ll only give it more views.
Glad I'm hype for the Knuckles spin off series
It’s coming out the day after so hopefully it will get peoples attention in a way that they’ll just forget about Velma season two
Shaggy's real name is Norvell
Don't ya just hate that great cartoons got to die and terrible cartoons like THIS got to keep going?
Supposably it's produced by Disney. Which should explain a lot. But I can't explain Disney. Disney is totally just it's on form at Bazaar right now
Sir, I regret to inform you that you may be getting your information from The Onion.
Her mother saw a toddler walking on the freeway, drove a mile past, and then she disappeared with her snacks.
it's not for kids but it non stop make sex jokes, ok it's for eternal kids
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.
Hear hear🎉
You know the show has issues when the good ol 3am story making has better storytelling than an entire studio
Just dont see it . Dont watch the series , becasue they migth issue a third and fourth seasson.
I love Scooby Doo so I hate the Velma show really really alot
I am so sad Dennis is in a show that got 1.6 stars, he’s clearly a 5 star man
The only light at the end of this long dark tunnel is that we get another season of Fred being the best character
I always wanted there to be an adult version of Scooby-Doo. And there's nothing wrong with doing something different. But it still has to be done right. And from what I'm seeing...I'm just down right disappointed - because this animated spin-off series of the famous Scooby-Doo franchise...sucks completely! This is both bad writing and woke/meta to its fullest. It is full of terribles jokes, characters, and plots. And I obviously can't forget about the pointless race-swapping, or the unnecessary gay romance, or the constant attempt of dated jokes. This whole thing was like a bitter resentment to the whole fandom. The humor in the show is just hateful and insensitive, instead of funny and insightful. There is absolutely nothing to like or enjoy about this show - especially the main character (or any other character to be honest), as they are all downgraded. There is no character development or growth throughout the entire first season. And so no one learns anything, or really pays for the vile things they have done (at least when it comes to Velma). And I get that people hate watched it, but some people simply watched it because curiosity just got the better of them. And because of woke culture (which I strongly despice), if you don't like anything terrible done by a woman, it means that you're sexist and are attacking them - in short terms, agree and like everything we do, and keep your personal opinions to yourself. And while I support feminism...I despice feminist; as many of them aren't looking for equality, they just want control and to vent out their frustrations and blame men for everything (including things that they themselves are at fault for). Man or woman, everyone is going to face struggles...the life of men isn't significantly easier.
Norville (a.k.a Shaggy) is now an African American whose sole purpose is to simp over Velma, and basically be her personal tool/punching bag; Daphne is now an East Asian American who is always bitching and whining, and is basically unappreciative of everything she has; Fred is still a Caucasian male, but is so spoiled, cuddled and dimwitted, that he is absolutely helpless when it comes to even the simplest of things; and finally there's Velma, who is now a South Asian American, as well as being entitled, possessive, controlling, manipulative, narcissistic, hypocritical, judgemental, sexist, and racist. To make matters worse, all three characters practically become obsessed with winning Velma's affection and attention - but why, when there is absolutely nothing to love (let alone like) about her. And Velma having a thing for a woman, doesn't make her gay...it makes her bisexual - because she's had crushes on men before any of this mess. The adults are also no better, heck, they might actually be worse because they're the adults, and should know better - especially Fred's parents: having a father who is completely disappointed on how spoiled and helpless his own son turned out despite the fact that he is the reason for it by giving Fred all the chances money can buy and never allowing Fred to solve things on his own; and Fred's mother who also cuddled him to the point where he sees their overbearing and unhealthy relationship as normal. Velma's father is also no better, as her father cares a lot more about his career and spoiling his much younger girlfriend, than to guide or advice his own daughter. Norville's dad is a bad therapist and a beta male, who always allows others to walk all over him. And Daphne's adoptive lesbian parents are completely incompetent detectives (and it's not even funny). Velma is in no way a sympathetic character or victim...she's the real villain of the story.
It really makes you appreciate the original gang even more. They were a group of real friends from different backgrounds, and had different strengths and weaknesses that helped them out of almost any challenge they got themselves in. Fred may have been a dumb jock, but he was still creative and reliable; Daphne may have been slightly superficial, but she was still friendly and trustworthy; Velma may have been a socially awkward know-it-all, but she still helped out in anyway she could; and Shaggy and Scooby may have been complete fraidy-cats, but they were always willing to do their parts for the friends. This show really only gets points for it's animation quality. And while I do enjoy a nude scene, these girls are in high school - why not just put them in college, and make them eighteen and over? Plus, when characters are called out on their toxicity and when others finally stand up for themselves...the show ends up making them look like the bad guys for doing so. Why couldn't the show take ideas or inspirations from more dark and serious material - like the "Scream" franchise, or the "Saw" franchise, or the "Halloween" franchise, or the "Hannibal Lecter" franchise, or even "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer" and "Citizen X".
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.
Na I’m intrigued by the among us show
I’ll definitely give it a shot
They took too long as Among Us already peaked 3-4 whole years ago
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.
If people stop hate watching TTG and this, then they both will lose money and get canceled
Just watch Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated if you want an edgy Scooby doo show.
And Inside Job was cancelled.
Also captain fall
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
Shaggy isn’t a stoner, he’s a beatnik
DON’T WATCH THE 2ND SEASON!!!!!!!!! NOT EVEN TO HATE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Most people have said season 2 is good.
I'm pretty sure in the old cartoons somewhere shaggys real name is mentioned once and I could see it being a name like this. Asked my hubby and he says it was Velma that figured it out and it really was norvill
It's Mindy dressed as Velma because if it wasn't the case nobody would give this show a second glance.
Bruh i would rather watch the minecraft movie trailer 1000 times than this
Can't wait to hatewatch season 2 with everyone else on the 25th!
What's next ? the worst Knockoff Cartoons movie
Well we are going to have Velma season 2
Fuck this version of Velma
It’s too mean-spirited to be enjoyable for me. And Velma never gets humbled, so there’s no one to root for here.
Until this video, I had absolutely no idea that such a series exists at all (especially since rather Scooby and Sha'a Gi, pardon Shaggy, are the figureheads) :O
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
Norville is shaggy’s real name. Shaggy is just a nickname.
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! 😂
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
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
Norville is Shaggy's real name. Shaggy is a nickname
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
“This show tries….”
I don’t think it’s even “trying” other than trying to be unlikable.
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…
Point made, but you really shouldn't be having that as your title. If cartoons are truly ruined FOREVER, then why are there still a bunch of good ones being made today, like Invincible for example. Velma may of been a horrible cartoon, but there's always good ones out there being made that learn from the bad movies follies.
I watched both seasons to see if its as bad as everyone says and yes,the first season isn't the best, especially the first episode but as the show is progressing it lowing its bad sexual jokes,bad dark humor and focuses on velmas hallucinations and the case she tries to resolve it also shows a lot of things happening at the same time for some reason which is kinda giving me a headache but the jokes are not as bad not as sexual the characters are developing and their relationships get ok-ish,my personal opinion is that the cases they written for the show are not that bad and could work if the people behind the writing would work to make it more suitable for characters that are underage
i wanted to die after watching somone react to this shit
The only enjoyment people get out of this show is the enjoyment of trashing it
Season 2? Who the hell asked for this?
norville rogers is shaggy's real name
Scooby doo is one best cartoon that never dies out, that was until Mindy got hold made all about her.
You're being misinformed. Velma was created by Charlie Grandy, not Mindy Kaling. She is only a VA and a producer. And she only wrote 1 episode of the first season. The character is not about her, so stop trying to make her look bad to defend a man.
@@do-not-subscribe Mindy IS one of the two creators you idiot, and she is the main cursor for the plot your bullshit will not work here, that creep is a racist ass ugly whore whit deep envy/fetichism of white people.
Its like watching rick and morty, if rick and morty had none of its redeeming qualities.
Shaggy's name was Norville in the original as well.
As a long time fan of Scooby Doo, i can tell you that Shaggy's real name has always been Norville. Shaggy is just a nickname, which when paired with his whole demeanor and love of food, was meant to support the implication that he was a stoner. If I remember correctly, the Mystery Machine belonged to Shaggy originally, which would explain why it looked like a hippy van. As a side note, I actually kind of love the theory that Fred is the one who drove the Mystery Machine because Shaggy was always too stoned to drive his own van. That would make for such an interesting dynamic between Shaggy and Fred in a better version of an adult Scooby Doo show. I would love to see an adult Scooby Doo series where we get to see Fred taking care of Shaggy when he's super high. That's the friendship dynamic I need to see!
What you on about Shaggy's name was Shaggy until 1991 furthermore the show started as in Scooby-Doo where are you? In 1969 and he was Shaggy not Norvile so drop that long time fan BS because what in 1991 the new show runners said it was always Norvile but we didn't say it for 30+ years
@@TheSobieskiukas after doing a little light research, you are indeed correct good sir or madam. The first time it was ever established that Shaggy's real first name was Norville, was in the late 80s/early 90s from a show called "a pup named Scooby Doo" which depicted the Scooby gang as children, by producer Tom Ruegger. I personally know that Velma (the character, not the show) referred to Shaggy as Norville in the show "Mystery Incorporated" on at least one occasion, meaning the name was also cannon in _at least_ one other Scooby Doo series.
However, you could have been more respectful in your reply. I can acknowledge that as an autistic person, I have a tendency to phrase things in a way that is easily misinterpreted. When I said I was a "long time fan" of Scooby Doo, I did *not* mean that I have been a fan ever since the show's inception, I meant that I have had an obsession with the series all throughout my childhood, partly do to the fact that it was one of the few shows my mother would allow me to watch, and partly because I felt that I could relate to Fred (I was obsessed with Rube Goldberg machines as a kid). My first Scooby Doo experience was with "What's Knew, Scooby Doo?" which ran during the early 2000s, whereas the very first Scooby Doo show was "Scooby Doo, where are you?" which ran during the early 70s, before I was even born. Although, I did still see some of that first show.
You could have said, "I think you're misremembering", or "I don't think that's right", or "you might want to fact check that", or "that's not how I remember it", or a million other things that would have been miles more respectful than "your not a real fan, so quit with your BS". I know for a fact that you are not a mind reader, you are not my mom, you are not my sisters, you do not _know_ me. So do not presume to know what I am and am not a fan of. Being told by other people what I think and feel or what I like and don't like is on my personal list of top 10 things I loathe the most in the world, because one of my sisters did it to me often growing up.
You should learn to be nicer and more respectful to people, it's called common courtesy. And just because someone is wrong about something, it does not give you a license to be nasty to them. I did my best to be civil and to do my due diligence by fact checking myself. I admitted I was wrong, but other people might not do the same. Generally, people will be more likely to listen to you if you treat them with respect, especially if you are correcting them. No one likes a know-it-all jerk. So for your sake, soften up your language and be nicer if you want people to actually listen to what it is you have to say.
Edit: also, as a side note, it was kind of difficult understanding what you were saying, since you left out some crucial punctuation.

@@TheSobieskiukas okay thank you.
If it was so great, then where are all the feminists and LGBT people it was tailored for?
I DID NOT expect to be blindsided by the Dead Space 3 meme in the first 20 seconds in a cartoon vid but I love it. Had to double take
Who the fuck plays a song that says "Are you horny right now?" after a fifteen year old girl was shown to have been brutally murdered?
Did the writers seriously have the audacity to go full mask off?
So did Maxwell Atoms and C.H. Greenblatt.
Norville is Shaggy’s legal name
It's obvious that Velma"s mom is the murderer
its beacause the original shaggy's real name is norville
