HBO Maxin uutuussarja Velma on rusikoitu fanien ja kriitikoiden toimesta Rotten Tomatoes -sivustolla. Kriitikoiden tuoreusprosentti on 53, ja katsojien niinkin alhainen kuin seitsemän.
Miksi Scooby-Doo-nuorisolaisporukan Velmasta kertova sarja on sitten niin vihattu?
Ilmeisesti sarja on valjastettu aggressiivisella tavalla nykypolitiikkaan, jos näitä twiittajia on uskominen.
Niitä ennen kuitenkin sarjan traileri.
This Velma show is one hell of an anomaly. I see righties saying its bad cause its woke, and lefties saying its bad cause it's anti-woke.
Everyone can tell its awful, but nobody can articulate why or whats to blame. Its like it was intentionally designed to annoy everyone equally— Max (relaxed) (@BrainDumpTweets) January 13, 2023

Just watched #Velma and gosh the tears in my eyes. The plot, The themes, the characters, the dynamics, the drama, the lore, the emotional moments…everything was garbage from beginning to end. On my way to the hospital, it's definitely the worst series I've ever seen. pic.twitter.com/glXb2tjibF

1988: Fred throws Velma a birthday party with presents and ice-cream
2023: Velma calls Fred an entitled rich boy with a tiny dick and humiliates him in a room full of people for no reason https://t.co/a0KQZolcGL pic.twitter.com/GKtGmGeUUg— Kaelan Ramos (@KaelanRamos) January 13, 2023

I still rather watch something like this than a wannabe Velma show. A smart, witty and determine Velma who solves clues and would do anything to save her friends from danger. Not some racist emasculating bitch. pic.twitter.com/gatKPytvtS

By far, the funniest thing that will come of "Velma" is it being so bad that all the usual types who bent over backward to defend it from getting called sht at the start
Are now making literal conspiracys to be like "uh uh it was actually 4d chess by the chuds, they did this!" pic.twitter.com/0Dxsfav3D5

HBO's Velma is just a mean-spirited lil cartoon atp and I'm a bit sad
Also, how do u fumble Shaggy/Norville THAT bad? The template is right there… pic.twitter.com/d44uNZFZYn

We went from Ultra Instinct Shaggy being practically canon to Norville literally willing to sell his organs so he can use the money to simp for Velma and blackmail her into dating him. Yeah, it's that bad. https://t.co/rINg7zk17U pic.twitter.com/lQUopxXPmI

The fact that Velma goes from weird transphobic jokes in the same episode mocking how comedy shifted after "MeToo" to "woah guys! Diversity win!!" Has officially made this the first ever show without a demographic to appeal to. pic.twitter.com/XjAhYGPuoR
