The Candy (Wo)man
10 May 2024
Once you ignore the sex, violence, bad language and nudity. You take this Scooby Doo spin off on its own terms.

Even then it is difficult. Velma goes to ask Daphne for her help. To ger Velma's mom cold case files. Daphne would give it to her for $500 but it soon becomes clear that they have the hots for each other.

Daphne certainly would not have the hots for Fred. Accused of murder and taking out women's brains. Velma's dad will defend him.

Fred is infantilised both in body and brain. He is too stupid to kill anyone. Much to his father's disgust. He is too stupid to run a successful clothing company as well.

Still the humour is too hit and miss. There was some nice touches. A 21 Jump Street riff with undercover teenage cops looking for the candy man.. Well there is too much drug dealing in that school.
