i enjoyed the Velma tv show immensely, its okay if you didn’t, but people got really carried away with just how much they hate women the show, it’s a cartoon, enjoy it or dont, don’t act like Rome is burning before your eyes
good jokes, inclusive characters, queer people that don’t die in the first episode, fun subversion of expectations, meta humour about tropes, a fun mystery, cancelled too soon, but there’s still 30something episodes
it made me reasses how I felt about Mindy Kaling’s work as a whole, turns out I had been caught up in the misogynistic whirlwind in the past, I’ve really enjoyed her older stuff upon revisiting it since seeing Velma
I really enjoyed Velma. I didn’t really care, but wanted to show it to my terminally offline wife to see her honest reaction and she loved it from the first scene and we continued watching it.
You gotta be trolling, right? I guarantee you “women” aren’t the reason people disliked Velma. The Golden Girls ran for 7 seasons from 1985 to 1992, I personally really liked watching the reruns even in a seemingly random order.
The reason Velma upsets people because the entire show is meant to upset those people. It’s not a real show. It’s a shitpost that targets racial and sexual majority groups. I’m sure they could have made a show if they wanted to and instead they made a shitpost. It’s got the same appeal to the people who like it as white hoods have to the clan.

I was a stupid ass teenager when it came out and people online convinced me it was the worst shit to ever grace any screen ever. Maybe I missed out.
