brendala: (Feminism FAIL D/V)
Well, I finally got around to finishing the illegal Canadian run of Mystery Incorporated and....well...I'm having trouble expressing my thoughts succinctly. So I asked the gang to help me out!
Fred? Daphne? Velma? How do you feel about this series overall?



...okay. But what about Shaggy and Scooby Doo?



Hmmm, looks like Shaggy is a bit more forgiving than the rest of them. That, or he awarded the show a point solely because it allowed him to touch Velma's boobs on camera.


OK, seriously...
Spoilers, rants, and burning bras under the cut.... )


Long story short, there's no way I'm touching season 2 of this show unless they get a team of writers who are self-aware enough to know their limitations. And, if they insist on staying with the romance angle, they'd damn well better hire some new writers who can handle a simple romance without reducing all the female characters into either desperate shrews or doormats. Though I doubt even the best writer can salvage the mess that's already been made unless they open with a Dallas-style "last season was just a dream" ret-con.
