from what I've been able to gather, it's mostly supposed to be like an adult animation parody of Scooby Doo while also making fun of overdone adaptations in general

haven't actually watched the show yet so whether or not it succeeds at that I have no idea

Probably hoping people will check it out because it was advertised as an adult animation? I mean people go see DC movies even though theyre largely terrible and dont feel like theyre made for fans of the characters

One step further, it was originally not supposed to be Scooby Doo related, but it was supposed to be a mystery show parody of it. But the only way they would greenlight it was if they made it Scooby Doo related, so it was either this or they couldn't make their show.

That said, it looks terrible and very unfunny. I also heard that there's stuff like naked high school girls fighting that just seems like a questionable idea to me. If you're going to do this sort of thing, at least put them in college.

no and yes

it doesn't come across as satirical, it's like it tries to be so self-aware that it stopped being self aware at all

Im not inherently against the idea Adult Swim successfully adapted old cartoons into basically unrelated, mature comedies, so its not like this had to be bad.

but it seems bad the trailer was just so aggressively unfunny

They absolutely greenlit this because Harley Quinn was such a huge hit.

What they didn't realize was that Harley wasn't good because it was raunchy and gorey, it was and is still a big hit getting new seasons and multiple spinoffs is because it's, to know....well written and a joy to watch.

I want to like it just because a lot of the vocal people who hate it are deriding it for the typical "GetWokeGoBroke" bullshit by hitting the show over race changes and LGBT characters. That said, it doesn't look very good in actuality this time either.

I'm extremely socially liberal but from the first episode the impression I got is that the show crosses the line from woke satire to just being kind of negative.

Like the first episode pretty much labels any white pretty high school girl a slut but it's just not done in a funny way so it just feels needlessly aggressive.
