VELMA HAS HUNG UP HER TURTLENECK WHEN TO SOLVG MYSTERI. HER MOTHER, DIYA, WENT MISSG TRYG TO DO THE EXACT SAME THG YEARS BEFORE, AND VELMA IS NOW HNTED BY PARALYZG HALLUCATNS EVERY TIME SHE SO MUCH AS THKS ABOUT A CLUE. BUT THE MURR OF ONE OF THE HOTTT GIRLS AT CRYSTAL COVE HIGH SCHOOL CHANG ALL THAT, AND VELMA’S CUR NATURE IS TEMPTED ONCE AGA. BIS, ’S NOT LIKE THE TOWN’S BUMBLG POLICE TECTIV (AN ASTOUNDGLY FUNNY VOICE PAIRG OF WANDA SYK AND JANE LYNCH)—WHO ALSO HAPPEN TO BE DAPHNE’S (CONSTANCE WU) ADOPTED MOMS—HAVE PROVEN THEMSELV THE MOST CRACK GUMSHO SCE DIYA’S DISAPPEARANCE. HBOMAX IN A TOWN LIKE CRYSTAL COVE, THE MURR OF A BTY MEGA-BABE IS ONT-PAGE NEWS. IT ULD MEAN THAT ALL OF THE CY’S HOTTT RINTS ARE DANGER, G FRED (GLENN HOWERTON) TO WORRY ABOUT HIS BELOVED DAPHNE’S SAFETY. THE SERIAL MURRS OF INSTAGRAM-PERFECT -EDS ARE THE TALYST FOR VELMA’S FUNNIT NNG JOKE, RCG S TULAR CHARACTER TO AN ABSOLUTE DUMPSTER OF A WOMAN WHO HAS TO WA THROUGH A SEA OF SEXPOTS TO BE HEARD. THE GAGS DOUBLE AS CUTTG JABS AT THE ANCHISE’S HISTORY, WHICH MORE OFTEN THAN NOT RCED VELMA TO A HOMELY, SEXLS BRAIAC A SHAPELS SWEATER AS A FOIL TO DAPHNE’S CURVY FIGURE AND BOMBSHELL RED LOCKS.AS THE STAR OF HER OWN STORY, VELMA FALLY GETS TO PULL RANK. SHE’S GOT SHAGGY OBSSED WH HER, AND FRED EVEN LOOKS AT HER WH HEART EY AFTER SHE TRICKS HIM TO READG THE FEME MYSTIQUE (A BOOK HE BELIEV WILL BE ABOUT WHETHER JENNIFER LAWRENCE OR REBEC ROMIJN WAS THE HOTTER X-MEN MUTANT). BUT VELMA IS REALLY TERTED HER CHILDHOOD BT IEND, DAPHNE, WHO SHE BEME TRANGED OM ONCE DAPHNE GOT HOT HIGH SCHOOL. Y, AFTER HTG AT ACROSS TWO SEASONS OF SOBY-DOO: MYSTERY INRPORATED AND GIVG VELMA A WOMAN TO CSH ON 2022’S TRICK OR TREAT SOBY-DOO!, VELMA FALLY GETS TO BE THE QUEER IN THAT LEGNS OF FANS HAVE ASSUMED HER TO BE FOR S.VELMA IS SO SURPRISGLY JAM-PACKED WH QUIPS AND SMALL STORY TAILS THAT IF YOU LOOK AWAY FOR TOO LONG, YOU’LL SURELY MISS SOMETHG. SOME PUNCHL PLETELY SNEAK UP ON YOU, LIKE VELMA ASSERTG, “THE ONLY OTHER PERSON WHO’S EVER FOUND ME IRREPLACEABLE IS THE PTA OF MY TUG-OF-WAR TEAM.” TWO EPISOS WILL AIR PER WEEK FOR FIVE STRAIGHT WEEKS, BUT THE SEASON WORKS BT AS A BGE, ALLOWG VIEWERS TO ADMIRE ALL OF S ECCENTRICI AND HUMOR WH THE MASSIVELY EXPANSIVE SOBY-DOO ANCHISE—NOT TO MENTN S DAZZLG ANIMATN STYLE. OTHER SOBY SERI HAVE HAD MORE SUCCS WH A WEEKLY FORMAT, AS THEIR CENTRAL MYSTERI WERE FAR MORE TENSE AND ENGAGG, BUT VELMA, THE SHOW’S OVERARCHG PUZZLE TAK A BACKSEAT TO S EDIC GAGS. HBOMAX VELMA NEVER GO THE FULL ARCHER ROUTE OF ADULT ANIMATN, AND MOSTLY REAS OM G THE WORD “FUCK,” LT KIDS GET AHOLD OF THE REMOTE. BUT THE SERI’ WRERS FD CLEVER (IF ANELY GOOFY) WAYS TO WORK AROUND THOSE NSTRATS, LIKE ONE EPISO THAT TAK PLACE AT CRYSTAL COVE’S FOG KG FTIVAL. GET ? FOG KG? KEEP GOG. VELMA CERTALY WON’T BE FOR EVERYONE, AND THOSE ALREADY AVERSE TO MDY KALG’S EDY STYLGS WON’T FD ANYTHG PARTICULARLY DIFFERENT HERE THAN THE SEX LIV OF COLLEGE GIRLS OR THE MDY PROJECT, WHICH VELMA’S -CREATOR AND PRIMARY WRER CHARLIE GRANDY ALSO WORKED ON. IT’S ALSO NOT THE STRONGT REIMAGG THE SOBY ANCHISE, WHICH STILL BELONGS TO MYSTERY INRPORATED’S FT BALANCE OF GENUELY CREEPY REFERENTIAL HORROR AND WHIP-SMART PLOTTG.BUT MORE THAN ANYTHG, VELMA IS PROOF OF THE POSSIBILI THAT N BE EXVATED OM ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR ANCHIS OF ALL TIME. SOBY-DOO HAS ALWAYS FOCED ON A RE GROUP OF EXCEEDGLY STRONG CENTRAL CHARACTERS, AND VELMA IS THE BT PROOF YET THAT THE TULAR DOG HIMSELF DON’T NEED TO BE PRENT FOR A GOOD MYSTERY.
