Dude, THIS! As a nerdy, awkward woman who has struggled to embrace herself, I always identified with characters like Velma, Nymphadora Tonks, and Brienne of Tarth. Guess who felt erased and gaslit when people started "claiming" those characters as non-binary or genderqueer or whatever? People actually tried to cancel both Rowling and GRRM for not making Tonks and Brienne non-binary. Its offensive to me.
Tonks and Brienne were both hot and bad-ass; I think Velma had more room to be made sort of ‘non-conforming’ but this is just so overdone and absurd.
Yeah, why does she need to be "non-conforming." Some of us really are nerdy, plain, and in some pain (especially early in life) because men are less likely to notice us. Don't assume we're queer if we're not that pretty!!! That hurts.

I just watched the first episode of Velma. It’s not great but I’m not getting all the hate. I love Scooby but it’s not sacred. I also like Mindy Kalinin just fine. The show is like most adult animation out there but maybe not quite as funny.

She can be funny but her stuff fixated on sex - like in a 14 year old boy kinda way. Weird.
She’s uncomfortable in her skin and wants the world to acknowledge her as a great beauty, after having to play games about her kids’s dad, Ozempic/Wegovy, and some arguable skin lightening. It’s hard to see. I loved her original blog and some of her writing but I haven’t been able to enjoy her work or anything she’s in for a long time now.

I mean, I haven't watched it yet, but I know not to expect Scooby or the weird, wacky humor from the original Scooby Doo. This is not a kids show, obviously.
But it has everyone BUT Scooby who is really the best character. I feel like Scooby must have been sent to the farm.

Haha. It’s Mindy’s baby. And it exposes her as an obnoxious talentless fraud who’s been grifting off a bit part in The Office for like 20 years now. She needs to go away.
Oh hi racist Mindy hater, nice to see you back! She's done some great shows, this one is terrible. It is totally possible for the same person to have hits and misses without being labeled awful and terrible - you know that, right?
DP from page 1, but I don't think the PP you're replying to is racist. I'm the South Asian PP from page 1 and I think Mindy Kaling is overrated, narcissistic, and lacking in originality.
Well then I think you’re an idiot with no taste. So there you have it.
DP. I like mindy as a person but I don’t find her funny. She peaked in The Office. Everything else she’s done like Mindy Project was meh at best. But this Velma show is garbage and very very lazy. If you like middle school humor still, Velma is perfect for you, considering your comment screams “I have the maturity of a 12 year old”.
“You’re an idiot for having a different opinion as me. Wahh!”

New poster. No one cares what you think about a poster with a different opinion than you. We get it, you love Mindy. Others don’t. That doesn’t make them a racist, idiot, or tasteless. You know people come on forums to express their opinions. You need to not get so butt hurt defending someone (Mindy) who doesn’t know or care about you.
