      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Jinkies! This radical reworking of the beloved Mystery Team has plenty of attitude and style, but it doesn't have the first clue for how to turn its clever subversion into engaging fun.

      Luz S How did this get a season two. There's something seriously wrong with the U.S. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/22/24 Full Review Audience Member só chatice nessa série, horrível, toda hora é uma piadinha sobre raça, sexualidade e sexo, e fica nesse loop a série inteira, além dos furos no roteiro que não tem sentido nenhum Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/21/24 Full Review Benjiman Y Vile and Disgusting. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/19/24 Full Review Kevin K awful, awful, awful, awful, awful, awful, shame to Scooby-Doo. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/16/24 Full Review Audience Member I really don't see the fascination behind changing the original design and story of established characters. Not just that but the humor was not funny. Why ruin something that's great? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/24 Full Review Gia M I only watched it because my roommate was watching it out of curiosity. I wish I could give it zero Stars because it is literally awful. It's not funny the characters are awful and aren't even the characters they're supposed to be. It's literally one of the worst things I've ever watched. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Heather Hogan Autostraddle Every episode is a cringy, eye-rolling slog that doesn’t seem to have any idea who its audience is, yet seems to despise them all the same. Jan 26, 2023 Full Review Shirley Li The Atlantic Its edginess comes at the expense of its own characters and punishes the audience for being invested. Like a certain Mystery Inc. member rummaging around in the dark for her glasses, the series is unfocused, confused, and desperately lost. Jan 23, 2023 Full Review Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) The 25-minute episodes are a suitable delivery vehicle for the humour, but across a season it has a lot of work to do to function as a cohesive whole. Rated: 3/5 Jan 20, 2023 Full Review Joe Reid Primetimer ...it's frustrating to watch the show nervously wink at its audience, assuring them that what they're watching is smarter than the IP-mining trend that birthed it. It would be a better series if it could just calm down. Aug 6, 2023 Full Review Erin Maxwell LA Weekly/Village Voice It’s an empty shell of a farce that’s not clever or engrossing. Just gross. How Kaling thought she could get away with a remake minus the sleuthing, silliness, ghouls and “meddling kids” that made it a joy really is a mystery.
