I haven’t watched it yet, but it’s been out for less than a week, so I suspect that rating may change going forward. (Or maybe it really is awful? Feels like brigading to me, though.)

It's a Scooby-Doo property...without Scooby-Doo (think the explanation for that is it's meant to be a "Velma origin story").

This is the kindof remake/re-imagining that gets made ostensibly for a different audience...but in the process alienates the traditional audience...which makes it end up with no audience.

Mindy Kaling was a big part of the success of the American Office and has other successes in a relatively short career, so it's not hard to see why it was green-lit...but frankly it's rating is probably about what it should expected to be.

It seems like the kind of show where they wrote a script first and then turned it into Scooby Doo later.
From what I've heard, it is unlikely to go up much. Absolute mess of a show that seems to go out of its way to insult any audience likely to watch it and who's only redeeming feature is that when the animators are trying they're doing a really good job.
For what I've seen it is a show is actually about the author as the main character and used only tScooby-Doo as a theme to be sold
In my experience, after 1000 votes, the rating has converged to its final value.
