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 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.

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.
