      @@mapoking5087 Actually they were bragging that it was the highest view premier of HBOMAX original animation, but that has even less competitors. Most of HBOMAX animations series are from Cartoon Network, Boomerang, Adult Swim and DC universe streaming. And while they may have aired new seasons of some of the shows that didn't make them originals since they didn't first air on HBOMAX. Now I don't know the exact number but I doubt it's more than ten so yeah not much of a victory.

    I'm going to correct you on one thing. Velma was greenlight for a second season after the first episode was released. So hate watching has nothing to do with this. Plus Velma viewership was surpisingly low but due to the fax that HBO doesn't have any current animations shows on there streaming service (after getting rid of them all) Velma became the top animation show on there streaming service. Plus the real reason scooby doo isn't in Velma is because Hanna-Barbera Productions refuses to allow them to use him and Hanna-Barbera believed it would hurt scooby doo as a brand

    • @MegaMagicdog
      @MegaMagicdog Год назад +8

      The people behind this show had a commitment for 20 episodes, so there wee going to be 20 episodes whether it would be a 20 episode season or two 10 episode seasons. Typically that's how animation works - a predetermined number of episodes which can be made into how ever many seasons the company wants. By contrast, Mystery Incorporated was greenlit for 52 episodes (which spanned 2 seasons). This show didn't get hate watched (except by the bravest of YT reviewers who were far more entertaining in their reviews than this show could ever hope to be). Most people preferred to watch reviewers do their thing that watch this drek of a show!

    Wonderful video Gio! I think it's also worth mentioning how awful Mindy Kaling is as well, because so many of the criticisms of Velma can apply to all of her characters, and even to Mindy herself from what I've heard. The main character in Never Have I Ever, Devi, is just as unlikeable, annoying, selfish and generally terrible to everyone around her, and is consistently rewarded for this behaviour. Plus, Mindy herself has said on record that she committed SA against one of her co-stars and used her power to bully employees into not saying anything. She said this on a late night talk show as a funny aside, a hilarious anecdote, because it's super funny when women do it to their co-stars apparently. She's an awful person, her characters are awful, and I hope that she is one day held accountable for the toxicity she brings to Hollywood and the bad name she gives female actors of colour. But anyway, great video as always Gio!

      @@GIGio_Official Animation is time consuming and expensive. Giving animated shows the standard 6 episode launch doesn't work because you can't finish the season while it's airing. Instead studios will ask for a set number of episodes and then greenlight work on the next season if the first does well. Although I have no idea why HBO asked for 20 episodes right off the bat since seasons are typically 8-12 episodes. Maybe they were banking too much on Mindy Kaling and Scooby Doo to bring viewers through name recognition alone.

    About Velma getting a second season, there might be more to this story than we think. A while ago, I heard about this trick that has happened before where the creators of a show will order a single season's worth of episodes and then split them into two seasons in order to make it look like there was enough popular demand to warrant more seasons. Now I'm not saying that's what Mindy Kaling did. I'm just saying I wouldn't be surprised if that turned out to be true.

Velma is the worst of them all due to her bad attitude and self inflating ego! This is NOT the Velma we have come to know over the years.

    Not related to Velma, but have you seen Mindy? A few months ago she was super heavy. Like how she looks in Velma (because gotta self insert). But now when she has slimmed down. Anyone know why? Diet and exercise? No that would be the proper way to get healthy. No no no, she hopped on the new Hollywood trend of weight loss by injecting herself with the diabetic medicine ozempic. In spite of not having diabetes. Mindy is injecting herself with a medicine she doesn’t need. Contributing to a mass shortage. My dad is diabetic and NEEDS ozempic, but Mindy uses it because, unlike what she preaches in her show, she wants to be thin and pretty.
    All of Hollywood is like this. Narcissistic, selfish, and all around vile people. Mindy is the worst one right now because of how bad her show was. I’m sick of these entitled people and how much influence they have on our culture. And they don’t even make anything GOOD.

    Velma isn’t funny because it doesn’t understand comedy, I once researched a piece of fan art of a blue dragon and I accidentally researched an overly dark children’s book series, my reaction of horror that I still haven’t fully got over is funnier, morrowseer is funnier than Velma because he’s so evil that he belongs in a parody, peril’s backstory is funnier because she was turned in to a weapon to destroy dragon eggs at the age of 1 year old, this sounds so over the top dark that it becomes funny. The fact that a childrenn’s book writer trying to write a serious dark scene but going so over the top that it sounds funny (but probably isn’t, it’s probably the opposite of funny in a weird and uncomfortable way, I don’t know or care much about wings of fire) is somehow funnier than Velma is just sad!
    Edit: children on fanfiction websites can write better because Velma s painful, bad fanfiction is just boring and the writer probably cared about it at least a little, a fanfiction author who doesn’t care could’ve written a better show!
