Going back and seeing the discourse around the new Velma show is a great snapshot of who is left on the birdsite.

What started off as a show so bad that it united people of opposing mentalities has quickly turned into an argument of extreme, kneejerk reactionaries on both sides, throwing poop at each other because they don't like it for the wrong reasons.

I thought that type of incessant, clawing anger was reserved for like, depictions of hell. Well, I guess it still is.

@tyote There's a Velma show?
Funny how you miss all the false outrage and irrelevant TV when you stay off the bird.

@ErFlynnArt Well, technically it's a Velma show, but don't go looking for literally anything familiar to the franchise - especially the existence of Scooby. People were rightfully dragging Mindy Kaling all over town before they turned on each other.

@tyote Geesh. Harshness over a TV show is something I've never understood.

...except over remakes done by Rob Zombie.

@ErFlynnArt I mean, I get it on some level - nobody likes to see a property they loved as a kid get turned into something bad, especially since pretty much every generation of kid since the 60's has been able to enjoy some version of Scoob. When it gets to the "acting like screeching zoo animals" point I tap out, ha.

Oh man, don't get me started on Rob Zombie's sins. 😂
