Jinkies! Velma’s Spooky Investigation

Review by Philana Eleby. Photo by HBO Max 

The show Velma is about a teen detective, Velma Dinklage, a nerd trying to fit in the crowd and investigate the disappearances of her mother around the time she meets Fred, Daphnie, Shaggy and Scooby, to help solve mysteries. In this series Velma is more complex, showing a more bitter and sometimes manipulative side, especially in her relationship with Shaggy. Despite her sharp wit, she is very caring toward her friends and protective of them. 

I like how Velma is investigating because she starts to come up with points for the investigation and she takes her time with finding certain clues . 

I give the series a 10/10. You can find the series either on Netflix or Paramount+.
