I’m part of the target audience, a “young gay woman” and honestly this show is DISGUSTING. I’ve hated shows before due to poor design and characters, but have stayed due to the writing.
This show is an insult to animation and Scooby-Doo, it’s disgraceful and feels like a bad Wattpad self-insert story due to how poor the writing is. I would rewatch the whole of She-Hulk another 50 times over this trash.
The animation and voice acting is good, don’t get me wrong. But this show has such poor writing that I just can’t watch it. The SEXUALISATION of 15 YEAR OLDS, the whole abomination that has become Velma (my favourite character in all instillations but THIS one) due to her being an almost self-inserted character and I honestly hate the racial jokes and extreme stereotypes in the show.
Worst thing Mindy Kaling has ever produced, hope it gets cancelled before the full first season airs. And what about the #MeToo joke? Its like they got all their writing from either Facebook or what was “popular” but no longer cool YEARS ago, or maybe did they do it for an uncool and disrespectful shock value that just made the show look worst?
I ship Velma/Daphne, I would have loved to see that come to fruition! But I’m not sticking around in this dumpster fire of a show.
Please let it be cancelled.
(P.S. I dont support transphobia, the writers do know that part of the LGBTQ+ group has TRANS people in it, you know, a group that also has their GAY WOMEN ie LESBIAN TARGET GROUP?! This is such a bad show, CANCEL IT!)
