And the thing is this stuff can be funny if done right…

Gotcha. Yeah, I can see how that would work. I love me some Chicken.

I'm so glad Mindy Kaling isn't back for Inside Out 2 after this.

She was great in Inside Out, though. Her sarcastic voice is perfect for a character literally called Disgust.

I’m guessing this won’t get a second season though… ;)

I almost posted this on the main page after seeing it on Reddit, but like most of the comments there, I thought this thing had been cancelled months ago!

Not surprised it was canceled. Can't say I was a fan. One thing I will say is Mindy Kaling wasn't a bad voice for Velma. Certainly an improvement over the current voice.
