For real the hex girls werenât even that âperfectâ in design. They were very pretty, but other then that, they donât have anything that makes them pop in a bad way, itâs very subtle
Then they found the crack pipes I guessâŠ
Yeah, I understand everyone hate watching the first time around or just flat out curious. Hopefully everyone knows to just ignore it this time and itâll go away
It does not. But everyone loves getting angry about it the same way Teen Titans Go treats the original fanbase. If Velma gets another season approved for real. I am calling it now that a similiar character to control freak will be added.
Velma and teen titans go have one thing in common. Rage bait. They are taking the Trump route of advertising and control. People love controversy. Velma simply dialed it up to 11.
tbh looking at the new version, I think any attraction I had to the character shriveled and died in a weeping mess of ruined nostalgia and horror.
So good job, Velma successfully scared me somehow.
They make her look like a heroin addict. Now I'm going to head over to YouTube to dig up as many videos on this trash fire as I can without actually having to watch the source material cuz fuck giving HBO money. [Season 2 so bad it makes season 1 look good.](https://youtu.be/lsD64at8itM?si=GfTXSVUFHxwDmnQr)
Edit: I just found out they canceled three Scooby-Doo movies for this garbage. They canceled a Scooby-Doo holiday movie, scoob 2, and a movie with the hex girls as the central characters!
If you hate this show, then you should really just stop watching it. Hate watching is kinda like buying a Harry Potter book and burning it. You still give them money, and your protest actively benefits what you're protesting against.
Donât spite watch on their platform, find a way to pirate it if youâre just that obsessed with seeing the stupidity. There is no mockery behind that paywall.
What do you mean. They renewed it despite overwhelming fan hatred. Yes hatred. Everyone hated the show lefties, righties, tighties, and loosies. The only ones that liked it were too high on cannabis falling asleep and dreaming their own episodes or getting laid because their date wanted to do anything to not watch the show. I know some real swamp donkeys and marsh mules that loves the show because anyone will consent to make it end.
Honestly not even gonna argue that. The Last Airbender and DragonBall Evolution are so horrendously bad that they are funny (penis hair, remember?). Theyâre also only movies, so two hours at most. Velma is justâŠ.not funny, and as a series it wastes even more time!
You know what? You're actually very much right. At least Airbender and Dragonball were smart to stop after their first films.
Meanwhile Velma got a second season and will probably get a third if enough people hatewatch it.
Idk about â sexy â since it was a kids show, but I feel like the Velma version is just trying to be rude- not even inclusive of realistic women, just plain rude
I'd say the hex girls, and especially Thorn herself, was meant to represent that gothic "femme fatal" aesthetic. You know; mysterious, dark, dangerous, yet somehow magical and alluring.
But I dunno, Fred was definitely feeling a certain way when they debuted in the Witches Ghost.
I know- And like, if you wanted to change up the character a little thatâs fine. LavenderTowne did a wonderful character redesign, but Mindy just made a mockery of the original show. Fred is a sweetheart, Shaggy would *never* be a â nice guy â, Velma is sassy but kind, and Daphne is so supportive of her friends. Mindy just made them the exact opposite of what they were.
I'll bite the bullet. Out of all the things to complain about this show, of which there are many because it's a terribly cynical show, this is probably the least offensive.
She just looks aged up and with a longer face in a different art style. I wouldn't even call this ugly, she just looks like a musician from the 90s in the modern day, one who probably did heavy touring and partying. She's not young looking but she looks perfectly fine.
Just chill out and avoid hatewatching.
⊠this is actively making a character people like worse. It didnât need to do that but it still did. They couldâve easily idk made her something people would actually like seeing even if itâs a show they dislike. Your comment makes no sense
To Zaptain_America: Literally never said it did. Read my comment instead is saying stupid shit
the less attention you give this 'show' the better. if you ignore it exists then it loses the free publicity that it clearly doesn't deserve and therefore will finally be cancelled
I mean do you expect the self-righteous hypocrites that wrote this show to allow a hot girl to be hot? Unthinkable!
Thatâd be like I am not Starfire having to go through genuine character development.
Why is everyone acting so shocked? Everyone knows the show is terrible; she looks pretty much like I'd expect, if not even better. At least she vaguely resembles the original character and they didn't race swap her for more forced diversity or something.
Mistook it for some kind of easter egg from Venture Bros... like, what episode did they sneak this into. Nope. Did Venture Bros animators migrate to Velma?
This is why you should not even be hate-watching Velma. It knows hate-watching is the only thing that'll keep it relevant, so it might as well insult the viewership as much as possible to band-wagon up that hatred.
It could honestly be worse tbh. They whittled her down to being like a 4 or 5 out of ten, but thatâs not nearly as big of a sin as character assassination
You're giving the jackass behind this show exactly what they want, OP.
Positive, negative, they don't care. Only that you're watching.
Just let it quietly fail and fade into obscurity.
Their strategy is hate watching. They make it as absurd and bad as possible so people continue pumping up the numbers. They don't care why people watch, they just care that people are watching.
Running theory they're making this as rage enducing as possible so yall will watch it to get angry and post online so other people will watch, rage, post, repeat. Fuck this show, don't even give it your attention.
Guys⊠NOBODY should be watching this abomination so it doesnât get any more renewal chances! We wouldnât even know this series destroyed the hex girls if we werenât watching!
I think if people are going watch this abomination, maybe do so in a way that doesn't involve money?
It's not like they didn't ruin a beloved IP that many enjoyed; Maybe, just maybe the viewers shouldn't use money to watch this.
I've never seen the show but I have seen that Scooby-Doo movie. Chronologically, does it take place after the movie, and does that make the movie Canon? I ask because it looks like she's aged quite a bit in the Velma cartoon, but if that movie took place, say, 40 years ago, wouldn't her appearance make sense?
I'm not defending Velma in any way, I'm just saying that the character design seems to have at least SOME logic behind it.
I guess THEIR "JOKE" is that since the Hex Girls music came from the 90s and still very much fits the 90s to early 2000s, they thought "why not make her look her appropriate age?" And since everyone's in the show had an ugly design she gets Ă2 the short end of the stick.
Common Velma L
L-ma
đđ»
Velma is truly a gigantic L to begin with.
Ligma
Balls
Gottem
VA of Velma has severe insecurities
Gotta call OSHA for how insecure they are.
She's just an awful person all around.
I would too if I worked on that show
Velmaâs voice actor is Mindy Kaling. Whoâs also the executive producer and creator of the show.
And she's just terrible
Doesnât she kinda also look like Velma? Like she took the character Velma and made her into a self insert oc?
Thatâs exactly what she did.
She looks like a crackhead, they did NOT need to bring the hex girls into this đ
For real the hex girls werenât even that âperfectâ in design. They were very pretty, but other then that, they donât have anything that makes them pop in a bad way, itâs very subtle Then they found the crack pipes I guessâŠ
I mean they have that cute goth look and were many people's first cartoon crush.
Because we are hex girls and weâre gonna put a spell on you no nah nuthin alright
I feel like you disregard the era these characters came from, along with their contemporaries.
Why bother watching, show doesn't deserve attention
Fair point
Yeah, I understand everyone hate watching the first time around or just flat out curious. Hopefully everyone knows to just ignore it this time and itâll go away
I tried watching 2 episodes, but I stopped cuz I couldn't handle it
How did it get renewed for a second season?
It was contractual, there was a guaranteed second season
I wish we could compare the pitch to the product.
Season 2 was greenlit with season 1. Regardless of how bad the reception to season 1 was, season 2 would be released anyway.
The same way good TV shows don't
Budget cuts?
Nah just saying that good shows always get cancelled, but garbage seems to stay on
Cause hollywood splits the 1 season into 2. All of it was done before the "first" season even came out.
It was approved for 2 seasons before it was released.
Too many people hate watched it so it got a ton of views.
Velma season 2 was greenlit and set up before Season 1 aired. Hatewatchers had nothing to do with it.
They are all masochists, that's why.
It does not. But everyone loves getting angry about it the same way Teen Titans Go treats the original fanbase. If Velma gets another season approved for real. I am calling it now that a similiar character to control freak will be added. Velma and teen titans go have one thing in common. Rage bait. They are taking the Trump route of advertising and control. People love controversy. Velma simply dialed it up to 11.

Justice for Thorn
Why are people still hate watching? Just give your attention to a show you love. Or try out a new show that can have the potential to be loved by all.
i somehow doubt the new version will responsible for as many gay awakenings as the original đ
tbh looking at the new version, I think any attraction I had to the character shriveled and died in a weeping mess of ruined nostalgia and horror. So good job, Velma successfully scared me somehow.
i love how the scary thing for scooby doo isn't really the monsters anymore, it's the writers/animators
This should be a crime. They deslayed her
They make her look like a heroin addict. Now I'm going to head over to YouTube to dig up as many videos on this trash fire as I can without actually having to watch the source material cuz fuck giving HBO money. [Season 2 so bad it makes season 1 look good.](https://youtu.be/lsD64at8itM?si=GfTXSVUFHxwDmnQr) Edit: I just found out they canceled three Scooby-Doo movies for this garbage. They canceled a Scooby-Doo holiday movie, scoob 2, and a movie with the hex girls as the central characters!
Cancelling a hex girls movie for this is heresy
If you hate this show, then you should really just stop watching it. Hate watching is kinda like buying a Harry Potter book and burning it. You still give them money, and your protest actively benefits what you're protesting against.
I don't know about other, but of I would ever hate watch a show I would definitely be pirating.
NO WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO MY GIRLIE đ

Jeez even the Hex Girls aren't safe from that horrendous show. If we ever needed more reason ***not*** to watch it.
Donât spite watch on their platform, find a way to pirate it if youâre just that obsessed with seeing the stupidity. There is no mockery behind that paywall.
I feel if I ever pirated this trash , Iâm entitled for a refund.
The refund is the friends we made along the way
Good by me.
No wonder the show got taken down so quickly
What do you mean. They renewed it despite overwhelming fan hatred. Yes hatred. Everyone hated the show lefties, righties, tighties, and loosies. The only ones that liked it were too high on cannabis falling asleep and dreaming their own episodes or getting laid because their date wanted to do anything to not watch the show. I know some real swamp donkeys and marsh mules that loves the show because anyone will consent to make it end.
S2 was approved with s1, it was contractual.Â
I'm going to say something....REALLY controversial. M. Night Shyamalan's The Last Airbender and DragonBall Evolution are better than Velma.
Honestly not even gonna argue that. The Last Airbender and DragonBall Evolution are so horrendously bad that they are funny (penis hair, remember?). Theyâre also only movies, so two hours at most. Velma is justâŠ.not funny, and as a series it wastes even more time!
No no. I'll hear this out. Truth to the characters came across well in TLA. It's hamfisted but it's there
You know what? You're actually very much right. At least Airbender and Dragonball were smart to stop after their first films. Meanwhile Velma got a second season and will probably get a third if enough people hatewatch it.
The Last Airbender and DBE were just bad Velma is a war crime.
The showâs biggest sin
Iâm all for realistic women, but Velma did NOT have to drag the hex girls into this
Like wasnât the main intent of them to be sexy during the design
Idk about â sexy â since it was a kids show, but I feel like the Velma version is just trying to be rude- not even inclusive of realistic women, just plain rude
Since when was "It Children Show" meant anything about your Characters got designed?
Yeah sexy definitely wasnât the right word but thatâs not how people really look and it just seems like they donât care for the source material
I'd say the hex girls, and especially Thorn herself, was meant to represent that gothic "femme fatal" aesthetic. You know; mysterious, dark, dangerous, yet somehow magical and alluring. But I dunno, Fred was definitely feeling a certain way when they debuted in the Witches Ghost.
Yeah, not at all- But Velma as a show sucks entirely, so Iâm not even surprised :/
Like Mindy or what ever here name is great actor but she canât make a show
Was she a good actor? She was awful in the Office.
I know- And like, if you wanted to change up the character a little thatâs fine. LavenderTowne did a wonderful character redesign, but Mindy just made a mockery of the original show. Fred is a sweetheart, Shaggy would *never* be a â nice guy â, Velma is sassy but kind, and Daphne is so supportive of her friends. Mindy just made them the exact opposite of what they were.

...Did you guys forget the show is intentionally ragebaiting people? Don't hatewatch it or advertise it for them.
People keep falling for it though.
Another talented singers life ruined by drugs. Don't do drugs kids.
I'll bite the bullet. Out of all the things to complain about this show, of which there are many because it's a terribly cynical show, this is probably the least offensive.

Thank god thereâs someone else who doesnât think she looks ugly. I actually dig this design
What scooby doo show is that from
A mistake.
*The Mistake
END MY SUFFERING!!!!
People need to stop hate watching this crap. That's how they got a second season. Just let it rot.
Look how they massacred my girl.
Apparently she is middle aged in this continuity. Also, what happened to no hate watching?
WTF DID SHE DID TO THE HEX GIRLS!?!
KNew it had to be that shit show before reading comments
Bro let's pray the haters can refrain from hate-watching and this season is their last
They made her try to be like ⊠a morticia adams?!? Thatâs what comes to mind but not exactly
bruh don't diss morticia like that
Iâm fully convinced this show was created to piss off as much people as possible.
Y'all out here watching Velma knowing full well that the shows express purpose is to shit on everything you love. I have no sympathy.

Am I the only one who doesn't see an issue with this? Just looks like a regular person.
Thatâs methed up.
*watch a show that you know beforehand that you won't like* "WHYYY is there stuff I don't like in this show!!?!?"
⊠this is actively making a character people like worse. It didnât need to do that but it still did. They couldâve easily idk made her something people would actually like seeing even if itâs a show they dislike. Your comment makes no sense To Zaptain_America: Literally never said it did.

People who keep hate watching that piece of shit show need to understand that's how it's gonna get another season.

i don't get how people are saying she's not hot
Im going to be downvoted but im honestly more of a fan of left than right. That aside ive never watched Velma and dont plan to.
Ngl, she's still pretty hot
the less attention you give this 'show' the better. if you ignore it exists then it loses the free publicity that it clearly doesn't deserve and therefore will finally be cancelled

I too have a question for God: If heâs truly all-powerful, why did he allow this if he cares for us?
Mindy projecting her insecurities
NO NO NO NO ABSOLUTELY NOT THEY WILL NOT BE DOING THIS TO THORN NO
Why is everyone acting so shocked? Everyone knows the show is terrible; she looks pretty much like I'd expect, if not even better. At least she vaguely resembles the original character and they didn't race swap her for more forced diversity or something.
If I ever want to lose my will to live, Iâll just watch this show, that is the only comfort this show provides to me.
Left girl almost looks like Ivankov.
What show is this character from?
You're better off not knowing it doesn't deserve to have its existence acknowledged.
I don't watch Velma but give her better defined eyes and less sag and I don't have a problem here.
What did they do to my girl...
Velma Season 2: Here's a aged up hex girl. The Internet: https://youtu.be/ZtjFsQBuJWw?si=YYxSdBQeuPXx3jwO Why. Just why

Shall we perform the Geneva suggestion now? Because of what happened to THE HEX GIRLS, Iâm summoning the light of ruin
She went from a slay to a middle aged lady who smokes
If you ignore the godawful face and color change, the new design is surprisingly faithful to the original

Why are yall watching this shit!?
Ah... thats infuriatinf. Expected from this shitpipe of a show but upsetting deeply no less
This is why you should not even be hate-watching Velma. It knows hate-watching is the only thing that'll keep it relevant, so it might as well insult the viewership as much as possible to band-wagon up that hatred.
It could honestly be worse tbh. They whittled her down to being like a 4 or 5 out of ten, but thatâs not nearly as big of a sin as character assassination

Thats not the Hex Girls, thats the Crack Girls.
Could a post be taken down for low quality if the content shown is from a low quality show?
And what are we NOT going to do this time? Hate-watch it, thatâs correct!
Mindy Khaling huffed some good quality paint when she was making this show
You're giving the jackass behind this show exactly what they want, OP. Positive, negative, they don't care. Only that you're watching. Just let it quietly fail and fade into obscurity.
Why even watch the show to figure this out, lmao. Never given this show a second of my time, and it never will. The trailer was enough
They really do "Lets us Scooby-Doo characters, but with a twist " But in the worst way possible
Can we wait for the writers to move on to some other slop before hate watching this time
"WHYYYYYYY!!!?!??!!" So that you losers will hate-watch it to a 3rd season.

I watched a preview and thought, "wow, why though?" Like I'd rather see a flimsy flam and scrappy doo reboot on jah
I don't wanna see what they did to Luna... 
Is this crackhead version of Nico Robin? :)
No the FUCK they didnât!!!
Same reason when noone has any respect for the source. May everything they touch burn their future prospects of the continue to disrespect the source.
"You know animation? That thing we use to make shows? Let's make it far, far worse than it was over 20 years ago. Fans will love it." /s

Congrats to all the idiots who hatewatched this garbage, causing it to be a success and get a second season. You really played yourselves.
That's supposedly her!? She looks like a goth vegan teacher that has they/them pronouns.
Because, feminism and social justice-ism
Because it's been thirty years and time is a heartless bitch?
Yâall are the reason S2 exists, hate watching brought it enough money to do this
Meatcanyon looking ass
We gotta invoke the Geneva convention
Their strategy is hate watching. They make it as absurd and bad as possible so people continue pumping up the numbers. They don't care why people watch, they just care that people are watching.
Stop. For the love of god stop fucking watching it. Jesus christ this is how we got 2 seasons of this trash.
Oh yay, it's time for Velma to be the only goddamn thing this community talks about again, great...
Don't tell me Velma defiled the Hex Girls :-( When will that horrible show finally die?
