Warner Bros. TV is planning more firepower for its slate of comedy series, including a second season for Velma. Despite significant backlash from the first season of the HBO Max original, there are plans to forge ahead. There have been no indications of storylines for season two, but it’s reasonable to suspect the series will continue to push boundaries.
Mindy Kaling, executive producer and voice of Velma Dinkley, previously spoke about wanting to explore the possibilities of challenging expectations. Showrunner Charlie Grandy backs Kaling saying, “We faced no resistance. We came in and said, ‘This is what we want to do, and this is how we want to do it.'”
If Velma season two is going to work, it will likely be on the efforts of the pure viewing numbers alone. The show holds the record for the biggest premiere day for any animated original on HBO Max.
