The show likely did NOT get “renewed” for a second season. They likely ordered a set number of episodes and split those episodes into seasons.

3 best versions of Scooby Doo: 1) Where Are You from 1969-1973. 2) What's New from 2002-2006. 3) Mystery Incorporated from 2010-2013.

My Wife pointed out that one reason that the original Scooby Doo continued in syndication forever is that it had qualities that allowed it to continue to be appealing to new generations of children. 1)Very predictable, 2)Dumb enough that kids feel smart in comparison, 3) Reassuring: No real ghosts or monsters - it's always someone in a mask Later iterations often ignored that last part, of course, but I am not sure it was really an improvement.

I SO wanted the clue to be Lon turning to Spencer, slapping him, and screaming, “Get my trailer’s name out your f***ing mouth!”

And yet we have great animated shows like Inside Job being cancelled :(

The theme song parody was unexpected, but very welcome.

The mysteries weren't overly convoluted - they were non-sensical, they couldn't even get the necklace/watch chain to match that was the 'main' clue. Plus, if she could swap brains or hypnotize people, then why not use that to swap her brain into Fred to take over the company or make him competent.

1 ep of _Supernatural_ had more _Scooby Doo_ than all of _Velma._

For years I’ve thought the death of the well written TV joke had its origin story in Modern Family-a great show in general-but it’s the first one I remember that relied so heavily on characters reacting to irritating or awkward situations with “Really?” “Seriously?” Or “Come on!” in place of an actual joke. Like placeholders that never got revisited.

The original Scooby Doo has a very special place in the format of my young mind, and it was very simple. The supernatural was never real - the solution to the mystery was always rational. Then came Ghostbusters, and the twist that the supernatural is *real* has been the permanent "twist" ever since.

It was Picard with the Tamarians that Danielle is looking for. Darmok and Jilad at Tanagra

It's funny how the plucky, sassy smart girl TV show can be something likable like Veronica Mars, yet also be inappropriately applied to Velma.

I love Jellystone! It's the same people who did Chowder

I'd like an extended cut of just Lon attempting to pull current rap names. Add it to Binge Boys if you have to

This Screen Junkies mug survives more than some cast members :-/

Could listen to an entire video of Lon trying to name modern rappers

So glad to hear the Josie and the Pussycats movie get a shoutout. A lot of fun.

Sokath, his eyes uncovered.

I initially thought that Samurai Hank was a Hong Kong Phooey remake - until I saw it. Then I realized it was a Blazing Saddles remake...

I feel like scooby doo isn’t hard?? I mean Supernatural did it well? Scoobynatural was like simple and fun

Danielle with the hot Darmok shoutout

I will forever hate WB that they cancelled Scooby Doo movie/show that was 95% complete and let this exist

This show is what was on the other side of the portal on that movie event horizon.

I must confess, I have friends who worked on this... BUT! If I were to date the jokes, it'd be 1993, a simple Cartoon Network bumper is more clever than this.

My F.R.E.D. System was: F-Foster Friendship. R-Retreat Emotionally. E-Engage Sexually. D-Dissolve Relationship.

Bless you guys for having to sit through it

10 years ago, I probably would have hate watched this show. Mostly because I like being in on the jokes with everyone else. Gotta fit in. But now that I am quite a bit older. I just don't care. There are shows that I hear great things about that I don't watch. Lol. So when I heard how terrible this was I just let it be. But I always catch these commentaries sooooo, I got my fill of it from here. This Honest Trailer was more than enough Velma for me. I am so sorry y'all had to watch it.

Jellystone sounds great! Added it to my watchlist, thanks!

Oscars? I got it, next week's honest trailer must finally be sesame street!

I completely forgot this These Days rant in a Scooby Doo mask was out this year, and yep, it still reeks outside of the animation.

Scooby-Doo still has a special-nostalgic place in my heart... The show used to air on TV at 2200 everyday and I just loved to watch it... I am '98 born and I think Cartoon Network launched in India in 1995, so they had this huge catalogue of shows ripe for a whole new audience Richie Rich, Scooby Doo, Popeye, Flintstones, Jettsons, Top Cat, Tom & Jerry etc... So you can say for us Indians this was our classics along with the late 90s-2000s airing shows like Ben10, Hot Wheels F5, Ed Edd & Eddy, Courage, Johnny Bravo and ofc the whole of DCAU shows among others. So these 40s-70s shows were new for us and watching HBO butchering Scooby Doo like this was very very painful... I just dropped out after ep 3.

Fun show. You guys had me laughing 😂

I’m pretty sure the kissing scene is a take on the Teen Wolf tv show when Lydia kissed Stiles to stop a panic attack

Adult versions of cartoons? Watch Harvey Birdman.

To quote Brian Regan, 'BOOOOOOO!' I was just powered by boos'

looking forward to tha annual Oscar watch show next week.

My working theory is that Velma is inspired by MTVs Drawn together

4:07 i was watchjng reruns too. Also the movies were coming out too

For me, please do Ski School 1 and 2.

Ruc no is stuck in my head 😭😭😭

The best I've heard about this show was it felt like someone who never saw a show cosplaying the show. I sat through it, and I found the only parts of the who I enjoyed were the non meta humor parts where velma wasn't on screen.

My childhood just took a nuke to the face 😔

I’m with Lon, how dare they waste the time of national treasure Stephen Root?!?!

I was really hoping for a Jason take manhanton honest trailer next week.

Love these and know its not a conspiracy but: either everyone remote or everyone in studio. Because if its 2 in and one at home whomever is calling in just fights to get a word in.

I'm pretty sure I've seen the entire series of Velma in just KZfaq clips. It looks terrible, and I'm pleased Honest Trailers didn't try to play devil's advocate with this one.

I've never hated a show so much that I was so excited for.

Did not expect to hear an rxk nephew mention when i clicked on this video

A Flinstone show based of the DC Comics version would be a cool idea

To survive, Velma will need a fun hate meme like, "It's Morbin' Time".

Velma is not harley, how dare they try and copy my girl

Velma is one of THE most popular animated shows in recent history. For better or worse, every one is talking about it.

Oscar honest trailer next week

24:09 oh i quit after like 10 mins. it was unbearable. people who ironically watched it or hate-watched it, the season 2 renewal is your fault haha

18:52 Yes you can riff in animation. It depends on the show. They do improv on Bob's Burgers.

Their the same writers from not another teen movie and movie 43

I wonder if a "Making of" for this series would sort of resemble a modern The Producers. Only instead of "we'll make more money if people don't see it" it's "more people will see it if it's absolute dog sh!t"

Darkwing duck already has a remake

25:27 well god dawg

Who was this show for?

14:09 "This is the character..." WTF? What have you been smoking? This is Mindy Kaling. There is no Velma in the show. She is like this in real life, I'm damn sure of that.

32:47 😊

Please do a trailer for the Halloween town movies.

This is the worst thing I’ve ever seen & I’ve seen Morbius! Why Mindy Kaling? Why do you want to ruin people’s childhood!?

Mindy Kaling is not the show creator, head writer, or show runner. None of this is on her.

Charlie Grandy wrote some episodes of the Office so its sad to see this series was so badly received.

should have been under the Adult Swim brand

I watched the whole season. They made Velma such an unlikable character that you at times forget how bad they made everyone else. Such a horrible show.

To Quote Morbius" Its Velmin Time!"

😅😅😅😅😅😅

uhhhhhh, a lot of people working on Harley Quinn are also working on Velma, so uh, it's the writing.

For Lon at the 14:00 mark, it may have a white guy showrunner, but if Mindy snapped her fingers, he would be gone in a heartbeat! He rode her coattails; he wasn't getting this job without her approval. This is her show through and through! And for the claim this is just a character, go back and listen to interviews with her and nope, this is her. She very clearly wanted this to be HER story and represent her life! She already disproved your argument in her many interviews on this show.

She wishes she was the female Chris Pratt.

I guess no reviews for mando ??

I like Velma... it mate me watch Be Cool Scooby doo. That was a blast!

Who was this show actually for?

Have people turned on Chris Pratt?

Screen junkies only watched TV before the year 2000s and it shows

Ginny and Georgia is leagues better than Velma, people love that show . Velma is meh and I’d surprised if it gets a second season

SHITma

4:34 i did loved the naked people in shower room

I really liked it...watched it like a stand alone series, thought it was great....didn't deserve a 1 on imdb

This show would have boss if the characters would have been fan boys and fan girls of the original Scooby-Doo gang and put this Stevia sugared Gender friendly modern take on mystery solving.

[shrug] We watched Velma and enjoyed it, even my bf who hates Kaling. Other Gen-X coworkers like myself who grew up with the dumb cartoon had a conversation about it, and generally agreed we like the new cartoon, but yeah, some of the supporting cast (Lynch, Sykes) could be given better material.

Velma is one of the worst and most ill conceived things I have seen in recent memory along with the Willow series.

Way to lose me in the first two minutes.

The animation in this one doesn't look cheap. In fact, those hallucination scenes with Velma actually look pretty impressive. So saying this show was cheaper to make than other ones that were canceled doesn't make sense
