i watched all 10 episodes so i can say i watched it, it also helps with people like u who are going around telling everyone they haven’t seen it, the shows i really really bad, the writing and dialogue being the worst parts, the animation is cool and it made me laugh a few times, not as bad as people say, but it’s one of, if not the worst show i’ve ever seen

I think OP is confusing dreadful with scary.

Chernobyl has a very intensely dreadful atmosphere that it achieves extremely well that allows the viewer to almost over-empathize with the anxiety, uncertainty, and frustration depicted in the show.

I guess to someone with low emotional intelligence they would equate that to scary or frightening, but I don't think it's the same.

Scary would be giving the viewer something to be afraid of, whether that's fictional or not, it leaves the viewer actually afraid of something. And maybe you could argue that the series makes you afraid of radiation, but I mean if anyone knows about nuclear bombs or have gotten an X-Ray, they know all the precautions taken around that(the lead aprons, and doctors behind a wall) really people should already have a healthy respect for radiation anyways.

Nah, you'd just do a timeskip near the end with the raid on Bin Laden's compound and have the scene with them unceremoniously dumping his body into the ocean and everyone would love it.

Also it's been over 2 decades, the event doesn't even hold much of a meaning to anyone under 30, or more generally anyone outside of the US. If Family Guy is allowed to do parodies of it, its open season for adaptation imo

Beautiful part about entertainment, is it's different for every person.

Velma is quite possibly the worst show, I personally, have ever seen. Let alone, playing the fandom card, even though they completely obliterated/shit on the fandom.

I'm tired of people stealing well known IP's just so they can make their own stupid story that has nothing to do with the original IP. For me, Velma goes down as the worst "Scooby Doo" (it's not even) iteration. Yup, behind Scrappy Doo.

Plus, Mindy is a sexual assaulter, I can not in good conscience support her. Same with any other.

I wish this was a good show, it has nothing on the original, or even Mystery Inc.

P.s. I'm glad people enjoyed it. This is just my personal take as someone who adores Scooby Doo. It wasn't for me. Don't let me detract away from your love of the show.

I think it mostly confused people. It uses Scooby-Doo names but has nothing to do with the Scooby-Doo cartoons. Which is part of the joke. It's a not Scooby-Doo mystery being solved by not Scooby-Doo characters.
