Cartoon review: “Velma” | Diverse Tech Geek

I give a review of the new HBO Max series "Velma," supposedly an adult-oriented "Scooby-Doo" prequel. Unfortunately, it doesn't do its source material or adult focus well.

Overall, “Velma” didn’t leave me irate, just mildly annoyed at how banal and adolescent its “adult” humor felt, while lacking much else of interest. While I’m glad we finally got a racially diverse version of Mystery, Inc., I just wish it was for a more traditional take on the gang. Otherwise, this show is pretty much “‘Scooby-Doo’ in name only.”
