I'm not the biggest Scooby-Doo fan but I love Mindy Kaling. I don't want to take a guess at why or how this show was made as some reviewers seem to think they know.
Seems like it's trying to hop onto the adult cartoon bandwagon with the likes of South Park, Family Guy, Big Mouth, Archer, and F is for Family but it's not working.
Scoob has been a kids show but I think that most kids grow out of it at some point. I certainly don't know any adults who genuinely yearn for a Scooby reboot, or a Scooby "for them." And frankly, the humour isn't clever enough for adults to latch onto. I love a cheap laugh as much as the next guy, but even the aforementioned shows appear on the surface to be cheap, they are clever if you pay attention. There's nothing clever about Velma.
Given the content, this show is definitely not for children. It doesn't rekindle nostalgia for adults. So, I guess I just don't know who this is for.
