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.

Otherwise, this show is pretty much “‘Scooby-Doo’ in name only.”
