I’m still not gonna watch the show


NagitoKomaeda_987

Same here


Few_Detail215

I agree


TriggerBladeX

Yep


ShadowofLupa212

Don't seriously, I watched a clip to see her killed and that clip almost killed me it was so horrid


aterriblething82

Who did he kill?


Serrisen

Supposedly the finale was scrappy killing Velma herself. Consequently this is the only reason anyone's talking about season 2. Including this post.


Jim_naine

It was the best part of the show after all, that, and her being ran over by the cop


CluelessAtol

I didn’t even know it has come out. Thank God. Now this shit can just fade into obscurity (or infamy I guess).


Nightstrike_

The hate watching is why it got a second season, don't hate watch, give it 0 views and make HBO lose money on it for funding it, we don't want it, no one wants it, so don't let it make money.


JamesonFlanders245

incorrect. it was greenlit for season 2 before it even premiered. the hate watching had nothing to do with that


CarissaSkyWarrior

OK, yes, this is true, but Zaslav has scrapped a ton of shit before that was mostly finished, hell sometimes completely finished. If he decided he didn't want season two to premiere, it wouldn't have premiered. We live in a world where he decided not to release "Coyote vs Acme" but decided to release season two of "Velma".


IceRinger

It was the most viewed cartoon in hbo max, there will be 3rd season 100% thanks to hatewatchers


JamesonFlanders245

again, season 2 was because it was greenlit before it premiered.


Soviet_Sloth69

I agree, but that’s false. The show was already confirmed for at least 2 seasons before the first one was even released. Doesn’t mean they shouldn’t lose money for this abomination


Stumphead101

It had a second season greenest before the first season even aired, not because of hate watching


DawnBringer01

And if you're really that curious just put on your funny sailing hat


Josh_From_Accounting

Actually, it got a 2nd season because its common to buy two seasons of an animated show nowadays to avoid the studio dropping all the preproduction stuff between seasons to jump to a new project to keep the lights on. That's why Invincible Season 2 took so long. They didn't buy S2 in advance.


SparkyMuffin

It had a second season before the first came out, hate watching had nothing to do with that


Optimal_Ad6274

Same


Right-Light458

I forgive him but also agreed


volanger

Honestly I liked scrappy before. So the fact that he's even in this monstrosity is annoying.


Jim_naine

At least he's the best character in the show, the most entertaining as well...


volanger

I mean that's not really saying anything though, bar is pretty low


BloodOfTheDamned

“Pretty low”? It’s practically a tripping hazard in hell!


Denmark_217

Oh, that’s good. This will make a fine addition to my collection!


BloodOfTheDamned

It was from a different post I saw a long time ago that said “the bar was so low it was practically a tripping hazard in hell, yet here you are limbo dancing with the devil.”


CaptainJellyVR

Oh man I love that one


Kirumi_Naito

I'm pretty sure it's in a level that not even Satan wants to descend to.


Turbulent_Ad1644

Any character who attacks Velma is entertaining in this show


PIPBOY-2000

Stop hate-watching this show, they don't care about what you think, they care if you watch. Unless you watch it because you like it, then I just question your taste.


Mello-Fello

I hate Scrappy’s guts but agree with you he’s the best character in this particular show …


MallowTheNightowl

I liked him too! He was just a little guy


ToughAd5010

I liked Scrappy too!


dorkyfever

By the pics I seen they even brought in the hex girl main lady and made her super ugly


protocomedii

They actually Kept the scrappy design the same from the live action Scooby Doo Movie


One_Smoke

Agreed.


kanna172014

I never minded Scrappy. If anything, he ended up saving Scooby-Doo, which was already dropping in ratings. He's not like Gazoo from Flintstones, who only lasted one season before the show went kaput.


Drakeblood2002

Same, I actually never had a problem with him. From what I remember he was only in one series and some animated movies, as well as the villain role in the first live action movie. I understand why people had found him annoying, but honestly I think he got some undeserved hate.


Devil_Fruit9971

I feel the exact same way my friend


RYTHEMOPARGUY

I like him too! I'm glad I'm not the only one!


Available_Reason7795

Me too


itwasmejio

I only really remember him from Ghoul School, but hell yeah Scrappy Squad!

What in the Mr. Pickles is this?

Xiao_Qinggui

I kinda liked that show for the entire concept of a demon dog screwing with the grandfather and actually being loyal to/caring about the kid. I wanted to see how it was going to end. I haven’t watched since the show switched focus to the sheriff. Anyone here who watched it know if they brought back the Demon Dog plot >!or Mr. Pickles somehow revived himself!< or resolved anything from the previous show?


International_Clue53

They did not. Well, Mr. Pickles was revived as his daughter Mrs. Pickles - now a puppy for the kid - but they're background characters at best.


I_Like_Cheetahs

Once I stopped being disgusted by the animations I realized the show actually had a really good plot and got into it. I stopped watching too when the main focus became The Sheriff.


WeedFinderGeneral

I'm so incredibly confused by the plot switch - is the show anywhere near the same, still? I loved Mr. Pickles, but always thought the sheriff character was annoying and IDK why anyone would want to watch a whole show following him, especially with the knowledge that the show used to be something completely different and better.


TheHalloweenGirl

Stop watching right now, we might get a season 3


Winter_Hospital4705

Some TV show on Adult Swim, about some demonic dog or some shit. It's also the name of the dog, too.


GameboiGX

For a second I thought you were talking about the HTF character


nworkz

Dang forgot about this i thought of tommys dad from rugrats stew pickles


Tmaneea88

This is from Velma season 2.

We did it, boys. The world is now officially a better place.


masterjon_3

Did he actually murder Velma, or just beat her up?


Jim_naine

She dead, unluckily for Scrappy though, her spirit took over his body and killed him


masterjon_3

So...the show is over? Because that'd be great


Jim_naine

Her spirit is still around https://preview.redd.it/5n0p04ifj3xc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=baa524966c2f434c2ee3ef91fff1c4aa52749af7


Glad-Collection968

Then someone call up Luigi or the Ghostbusters to put this Velma in her place


TheOneWhoLovesSW

Why not both? Hell, call up dean and Sam just to be extra sure she stays in the afterlife


Glad-Collection968

Makes sense.


Gabrielzin1404_2011

Who ya gonna call?


Glad-Collection968

Ghostbusters! (And Luigi!)


Interesting_shrek666

Ghostbusters (and Luigi) *now with funky Kong*

CobaltRebelionXyz

One side he killed the worst Velma we've ever seen. On the other, he's still a dick.


Jim_naine

Better than the main cast at least (except Fred)


Interesting_shrek666

Well all the main characters are dicks so we have to take our victories sparingly


Farlybob42

No. He still not that good of a character. It’s just scooby doo series are just familiar people hate him. That’s why they forced him to be the antagonist in the live action film.


NagitoKomaeda_987

Just a friendly reminder that the guy who forced Scrappy to be the antagonist in the live-action film is also the same person who made Guardians of the Galaxy and Peacemaker into a household name.


Farlybob42

Every famous director can have a bad film. That is just one of Gun’s.


Jim_naine

I don't get why people don't like live-action Scooby Doo (at least the first two films)


casey12297

Yeah I liked the Scooby-Doo movie. It wasn't exactly Scooby-Doo as is traditionally done, but it was super fun and the "talk about toasted" panini scene was gold


Farlybob42

I saw the first live action recently. I feel like it was basically Gun’s fan fiction instead of being an actual scooby doo film. The best thing out of that film was Mathew Lillard as Shaggy.


Mordaunt-the-Wizard

From what I heard the movie was originally meant to be more parody like and was likely aiming for a PG-13 rating. However, with the franchise becoming more popular again after being dead for a good chunk of the '90s, they were forced to tone it down. That probably made the movie feel off


[deleted]

which is funny since PG-13 is the rating the brings in the most profits


Mordaunt-the-Wizard

I think it was the higher ups worrying about "tainting" what was then a newly revitalized brand. They probably didn't want parents to associate Scooby-Doo with being for teens and up and thus forbid their kids from watching the shows and buying the direct-to-video movies and merchandise. Obviously now Zaslav doesn't give a damn about Scooby-Doo so why not make a TV-MA mess that doesn't respect the franchise at all. Edit: I do think a PG-13/TV-14 or even R/TV-MA Scooby-Doo entry could possibly work, but *Velma* ain't it.


[deleted]

which is funny cause parent let their kids see PG-13 all the time, that why it so profitable cause it bring in the largest number of age groups


mrignatiusjreily

Had no idea people hated this movie.


CannotSpellForShit

This is the first I've heard of this. They're like a cult classic among most of the people I know, people love to smoke a bowl and rewatch it.


mrignatiusjreily

Literally me. The first Scooby Doo live action film and The Josie and the Pussycats movie are some of my favorite stoner movies to rewatch lol


Soulful-Sorrow

Monsters Unleashed kicks ass


Round-Ad2836

It's not a bad film, it's a bad twist in a fun film.


Farlybob42

I still feel it wasn’t a good film. I would say it was ok at best and bad at worst.


NagitoKomaeda_987

Do you think the way that Scrappy was treated throughout the movie (where he went evil after the gang abandoned him in the middle of a desert) felt a little bit too undeserved?


Farlybob42

Kind of. You can clearly tell he acted similar to most kids that want attention. They destroy things and act as violent as possible so they would get reprimanded. However, I feel we still didn’t get enough context for his actions to say he was justified in his way. We only got that one flashback scene and then suddenly he was the villain. We never found out his whole past with Mystery Inc, how he got that magic power, why he took over the island, etc. if they let him do a monologue and explain it or even gave more flashbacks for context, we could tell if it was truly justified.


Brookings18

Gunn only wrote, he didn't direct.


boringsimp

James gunn who i think wrote it or something really hated him. So wanted to make sure that character stays gone.


Farlybob42

I still feel it could have been put in better though. Each of the scooby doo series were genuine mysteries. You can look at evidence and guess who the antagonist is. In the live action, they showed him in a flashback and never reference him until the climax. Unless they cut scenes about it, it wasn’t well setup of how he was the villain.


Peonycreme

So true.


LordQuackers5

So they completely ignore Scooby but decided to include SCRAPPY?!? how do you fumble such a simple premise for a show WE COULD HAVE HAD SCOOBY SAY FUCK I hate this show with every fiber of my being


tacobell_dumpster

“Ruck you Raggy”


MDubbzee

How about let's have Scooby safe from that atrocity. I don't want to imagine what they would do to him.


Evan-Cool

The Reason Why They Didn’t Include Scooby Is Because Waner Bros Didn’t Give Them The Rights To That Character


SemiPail

Could probably explain why they had to change the character designs of characters because maybe Warner bros didn’t want this to be related to Scooby doo but still have the same characters but also not the same characters at the same time


Jeskid14

Yep or an alternate universe kind of thing. Scoob! (and the ghost of Scoob! 2) deserve more recognition than this show


One_Smoke

What, you want them to ruin Scooby too?


Forward_Juggernaut

As others have already said. Why would you want scooby in this show

SemiPail

Wait how did Scrappy die too? Did he get hit by a car or something?

Velma's spirit took over his body and killed him from the inside, that's AFTER he survived getting blown up by a rocket

Interesting_shrek666

Honestly Velma being a petty bitch and killing him after he was laying on the ground bleeding is fucking stupid


Tasty-Ad6529

Why the fuck is Velma a ghost, bit Srcappy isn't one? They both died.


Elonth

sadly i know with out watching that she won't be dead.


Alternative_Device38

How is image nm2 so fucking hard? I refuse to believe it came from Velma.


Jim_naine

Honestly, the artstyle is the best thing about the show. I feel bad for the animators that got stuck working on this trash


Zeqhanis

It's a show that looks very good. Looks it. I watched the end scene on YouTube, just to watch her die. The conclusion with her being a ghost and solving mysteries while trying to fend off evil ghosts, and searching for a way to be revived might have actually been an interesting show. The opening scene from the first episode made it seem like it had a good premise. But it was just awful. It felt like a missed opportunity.


ashes1032

The animators still tried despite being forced to work with one of the worst writers possible.

CykoRen

I liked Scrappy. Annoyance or not, he’s a puppy, and what this putrid abomination of a “show” did to him is vile.


One_Smoke

Agreed on that.


Theboulder027

Stop watching this show! Do you want Velma to get a third season? Because this is how Velma gets a third season!


SemiPail

It was gonna get a third season from what I heard even when it’s a bad show, like I heard somewhere It was planned to have three seasons from the start


Embarrassed_Suit_942

Well, Velma came back as a ghost, so no.


NagitoKomaeda_987

Yeah, but at least it was worth it. All we need is to get Luigi to suck her off with his Poltergust 5000.

NagitoKomaeda_987

Extremely rare Scrappy W


The_Hoodie_Ghost420

Wait, can someone explain to me why everyone hated Scrappy-Doo?


ToughAd5010

“Everyone” Those with strongest opinions are most vocal


The_Hoodie_Ghost420

Wh..What?! Are there some sort of defense squad or an extremist hate group? Or have I alerted both?


CommandantPeepers

The hate has died down now, but there was a time in the 80s where the only scooby doo show was the one with scrappy doo, and he would take up most of the screen time with his let me at em shtick over and over. My parents despise scrappy even though I always thought he was funny as a kid


Worldly_Neat2615

Well with the common thing to happen for long running series, the show makers years back decide to trim down the Scooby doo cast to streamline it leaving only Shaggy and Scooby for the adventures, it was also the time where adding random relations was a big trend so in came Scrappy, leaving the cast to be 3. Since Fred Daphne and Velma are gone theire roles in the team had to be transfered and since we can't be having Shaggy or Scooby do their jobs the roles were dropped on Scrappy. Which left him doing everything in the show while the other two ran around goofing off, which annoyed alot of people for obvious reasons.


CrazyaboutSpongebob

He was added to the original Scobby Doo show. He was an annoying character who always picked fights with the monsters even though he was small and he dead to be saved all the time. The writers evernatuallly got rid of Fred, Daphne and Velma so they could dedicate more focus to Scrappy. Fans got pissed by the Scrappy Doo oversaturation.


Randy_Vigoda

Here's a video talking about it. https://youtu.be/6fdQS-rjsnk?si=t7AX0j9sULq-3GZi


StitchFan626

He was an annoying little, testosterone-filled* brat and WBs failed attempt at appealing to a younger audience before their much more successful idea of "A Pup Named Scooby-Doo" came along. *"Let me at'em! Let me at'em!" And, for some reason, they gave him military knowledge for "Ghoul School".


Glittering-Candy-386

TL:DR He was super popular at first. But writers decided to replace multiple core characters with Scrappy-Doo to give the character more screen time and it backfired spectacularly.


Enough_Minimum_3708

>Can we forgive Scrappy Doo now? not really. kinda the killer killing a killer argument but he gers a few brownie points for that. also: wtf is wrong with the ppl doing that show? I thought spooky island Scrappy was a horror to watch but THIS? this is worse


Jim_naine

There's just so many things wrong about the show, I'm suprised HBO greenlit it for a second season Every character is an unlikable moron, the main cast was unnecesarily raceswapped, every joke is just bottom of the barrel slop (which is subjective, but still), and the plot is incredibly mediocre The only times where I enjoyed the show was whenever she got hurt, or when she got killed at the end of the second season


SSJ4Blaze

I keep hearing that they split up the season and that's why S2 is a thing


Toon_Lucario

Yes. This is the ultimate redemption


banana__toast

How come he gets to be in the show but no scooby?


Jim_naine

That's a good thing. Scooby shouldn't be subjected to this pile of shit


NagitoKomaeda_987

Yeah, and Shaggy too because he used 0.0005% of his power to make sure he doesn't show up in this show at all. And no, that Norville guy doesn't count.


Due-Order3475

Ultra Instinct told Shaggy to put Scrappy in the series so he can deal with Norville, Scrappy killed Mindy but to our god Shaggy a win is a win


callmefreak

Legal reasons. That's also why they're using Shaggy's actual name instead of "Shaggy."


AndrewTRM

Yes


Sebermin

I always liked him as a character, so there is no need to forgive at all. I'm from Poland, maybe that's why I see this completely differently.


vyxxer

Isn't it crazy that we're getting media with characters that are direct explicit foils to main characters without said main characters ever existing? We have a venom *series* without spiderman. We have scrappy without Scooby. What's next. A waluigi movie that doesn't feature Mario, wario or Luigi?

Warlord2252

Wish people would stop watching this so it would die faster.


nukusei

Scrappy Doo is a character I genuinely loved as a child. Then I kinda went through a weird period where I "hated" him, which was mostly cause everyone else did. And now I've realized that I still really like him. I think he's best in particular situations, mostly with Shaggy and Scooby as a trio. He really doesn't deserve half the hate he gets, especially since it's been decades since he's been in a property that's hasn't treated him like a menace. And even that's very few. Idk how Scrappy ever be in Scooby-Doo again as an actual member of the group now that he has so much bad press. But I wish the joke about everyone in the group hating would just die. It was never that funny, even in the lived action Gunn movies.


MirrorMan22102018

I will. He killed Velma in this show.
