🐠 Become a MEMBER of The Reef at http://ClownfishMinus.com Velma is officially canceled, as confirmed by HBO. However, if you’re celebrating its cancellation, you’re a bad person, according to Animation Twitter. Velma, an adult animated series based on the iconic "Who Done It" franchise, was canceled by HBO Max after two seasons, despite being praised for its storytelling, clues, and humor. The animation industry is currently constricting, with 90% of job losses attributed to unpopular projects not receiving support. Mindy Kaling, Velma’s creator, received higher compensation than average and will likely use the funds to greenlight other projects, while animators who worked on the show face employment challenges. The hosts argue that Velma’s cancellation is a win for HBO, saving money, but a loss for animators struggling to find work in a shrinking industry. The cancellation may lead studios to focus on creating good shows that audiences want to watch, rather than attempting to own IPs or generate controversy. ➡️ Official Merch Store: http://ClownfishMinus.com ➡️ Audio Podcast: https://link.chtbl.com/ClownfishTV ➡️ Official Website: http://ClownfishTV.com ➡️ Official Clownfish TV subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ClownfishTVOfficial/ The cancellation of "Velma" after two seasons highlights the complex interplay between fan dissatisfaction with the show’s quality and the negative impact on animators and the animation industry as a whole. 00:00 Velma is canceled after two seasons due to poor reception, sparking mixed feelings among fans about the show’s quality and the impact on animators. 02:40 Velma’s third season is canceled, sparking mixed reactions on Twitter about celebrating the show’s failure versus the impact on jobs and the importance of preserving original media. 05:30 Celebrating Velma’s cancellation overlooks the negative impact on animation staff and the industry’s struggles, despite its poor storytelling and lack of viewer support. 07:07 Velma’s cancellation reflects fan frustration over the show’s departure from its roots and the creator’s self-interest, revealing the negative impact of boycotts on employees. 09:48 Velma’s cancellation highlights the struggle in animation jobs, sparking debate over whether it’s right to celebrate the end of a disliked show while empathizing with the animators affected. 12:08 Warner Brothers’ misinterpretation of failed animated shows could hinder future projects due to perceived audience disinterest in animation. 14:07 Social media is divided over the cancellation of "Velma," with critics overlooking the poor decisions that led to its failure and the impact on the animation industry. 16:23 Velma’s cancellation underscores the animation industry’s need for quality content over corporate interests, alienating fans and limiting job opportunities.
