About 'Velma' Series Premiere
“Velma” is an adult animated comedy series telling the origin story of Velma Dinkley (Mindy Kaling), the unsung and underappreciated brains of the Scooby-Doo Mystery Inc. gang. This original and humorous spin unmasks the complex and colorful past of one of America’s most beloved mystery solvers. What crazy adventures will Velma and the gang find themselves in in this new series? You’ll have to watch and find out, but make sure you put the kids to bed first!
The series boasts some incredible comedic talent, including “Office” and “Mindy Project” writer and star Mindy Kailing as Velma, Glenn Howerton from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” as Fred, “Fresh Off the Boat” star Constance Wu as Daphne, and “Veep” alumni Sam Richardson as Shaggy. The cast, combined with its more adult premise, should offer a fresh and hilarious look at a well-trodden group of characters.
