questons! Thanks! Bye! From: a new sd fan: Liana!

heya my name is christie, and i have been a huge fan of Scooby since
before i can remember! I love your site and everything in it! my high
school nickname was actually daphne as i reminded my mates of the
redhead soo much from the hairstyle and colour to the klutzy nature! I
just wanna say keep updating this site as it is soooooo hard to find a
decent site like this that pays tribute to everything scooby doo
especially the underappreciated characters!

I think Velma is cute and very smart and her character is in the Movie
and Cartoon, Scooby is cute too. Plus, my name is Velma.
Plus I am a mother of three children and they like Scooby Doo as well.
They are in their Twenties and Thirties. Scooby Dooby Do where are
you!!!

An "intentional" blooper was brought to attention from the
live-action Scooby movie. Afte getting knocked over by the water spray
of a hose, Velma hangs upside down in a chain by one foot. But in this
position, her skirt doesn't flip over. To maintain the
"family" movie integrity, Velma's underwear could not be shown
(even though she's flashed them several times on the cartoon!)

Between Velma and Daphne I would say Velma because she has got the
looks,the brain power,and she has more outstanding achievement I think
she really looks good with the glasses,the hair,and the orange sweater.I
grew up watching scooby doo its always been the best cartoon I have ever
seen and I have always been attractive to Velma because she is so
smart she can really think and when she see a villan she knows what to
do right away smart girl.I have seen behind the seeings of Velma and I
got a real good look at how many awards she has won for outstanding
achievement Daphne might get straight A's too but not as good as Velma
velma is better than Daphne i think.Everything is cool about Velma. When
Velma's glasses come off her face she still looks good but i like her
face better with the glasses. When Velma needs some help all she has to
do is do some sweet talking to scoob will you do it for a scooby snack
velma always says and it works velma does her share of sweet talking
too. I have seen Velma unmask villans before she is good at it there
sure is alot of stuff to say about Velma since she is so smart I watch
velma alot and she has got everthing. Two girls play good and the
best one is Velma. You 're good velma your're a real professional you're
really good. Keep on playing Velma I love you.

Just one observation about the Voice of Velma from an Ohio native: to my
ears, Nicole Jaffe's version has a pretty strong accent which reminds me
of a cross between Cleveland and Chicago, weighted towards the former.
I've known several Clevelanders and they all have a similar twang in
their voices. It's mostly audible in the long a's--fex, "come
on" sounds like "come aahn". fwiw Btw, I had a crush on
dear Velma as a kid. I admit it. Daphne looked too old for me. cheers,
Billy S.

Between Daphne & Velma.......I am more attracted to Velma than Daphne! Yes, Daphne's pretty & all, but women with glasses, brains.....just
something attractive about a woman with glasses & some serious brain power!
It's good that they made Daphne more self-reliant in the newer Scooby-Doo
animated movie "Zombie Island", but I am still attracted to Velma! Velma's my girl!
Good job on the site!

Well, Velma i think you are the most interresting character in the gang,if you ask me.And i realy would like to know you better i mean personality
wise.I am also interrested in reading and studying a lot of other things beyond
my knowledge and I for one think that we so far have a lot in common, and i
think it would be nice to hear from each other so as to learn different interesting issues.I am also your great fan of you because i adore so much of
your doings, i mean how quick you are at solving mysteries and how intelligent
you are and i am very impressed on your academic parformance and your life
successes so far.So i think it would be very nice if we could exchange ideas via
e-mail or even chat for some time, because i am so eager to hear your voice in
person.I have also been through allementary school,oh boy we'll have a lot to
discuss believe me. You know, my childhood was kind of the same as yours and now
i am a grown man and ever since i have not been able! to talk to anyone about it,and here today i find you by coincidence that you
also have undergone the same childhood as mine and now you are even able to talk
about it on the net,it gives me great joy and courage that keeps my fears
away.so please do e-mail me and give me your contacts so that we can talk more
because i feel i have a lot to learn from you miss dinkley and you can even

Velma has never been underappreciated in regards to her role on the show. She's no raving beauty, but her intelligence and spunk makes her one of
H-B's more irresistible gals, and Mindy Cohn is perfect as her voice in the new
show. Her age is listed as 15 (the youngest of the kids), and perhaps she should know
better, but there are some nine episodes overall (including "A Pup Named Scooby
Doo") in which Velma allows her underwear to show. As a teen she wore red
panties while as a pre-teen she wore white.

I was wondering if the Velma dolls are still in the stores. I would love to own the whole gang.. My sister got the one of Daphne and Scooby and I
was jealous I will admit.. But having a Velma doll would rock..
alfredofroylan 3/23/03
Nice page, I download the Bravo Dooby Doo espisode but I can't find
any other episode with Velma and Jhonny (Johnny's Loves). And the episode
"Johnny's Loves" didn't appear in the episode list of Johnny Bravo. Where can I
find that episode?? Keep the page, is great !!!
DorrieBelle 3/15/03
Loved your site and fanfics. Just wondered - did you know the entire
SD cast is now available as playline Barbie/Skipper/Ken dolls ? I got my Velma
doll yesterday, and she is absolutely charming. I'm a doll collector (oh, who am
I kidding, I'm 36 and I play with 'em, I admit it !)and I've had tons of fun
dressing her in vintage orange 70s-wear and modern soft pastels and even one or
two 'hootchie mamma' outfits.
If you didn't already know about them, check out your Wal-Mart or Toys R Us. My
local WM had only two Velmas, and 4 of everybody else, but when I went back to
get my Velma, I got the last one and they were sold out of Shaggies. Two members
of the online doll forum I frequent report all dolls *but* Velma are readily
available. Take that, Daphne ! I took lots of digital photos for the forum, just
let me know if you'd like copies sent to you.
I know it's silly,but it's lots of fun having your own Velma doll ! :)
Thanks for all the fun I've had at your site !
robin 3/12/03
I have a few Velma questions--can you help me? We're working on a tv
show about retro TV and I'm trying to pinpoint some episodes/events in the life
of Velma. please let me know if you can help.
best

turtlenecks and pleated skirts)

I've been waiting all day to get on here! It,s been a
good day to be a Scooby/Velma fan! To start Yesterday[03/04] when I

Vaimpire to see who was voiceing Velma.[B.J.Ward or Mindy]Srprised to

do somthing deriffent-lets just say there is no piano this time!It's
good to see the real Velma back! OH! the other thing is that the new
Scooby Doo cast Barbie dolls are just comeing out! I just saw a Dphine

good thing the mystery inc. gang only picked up johnny bravo or jay and
silent bob hitchhiking. if they'd picked up henry lucas... thinking
about miss velma as "orange socks".brrr... not the best idea i
ever had.here's one worse... vel would have gone willingly with ted
bundy (she stops thinking around handsome men). saw a new bumper last
night (feb 3) on cartoon network. dexter falls for miss velma but she's
still falling for johnny bravo.any idea how many of these little story
bumpers velma has appeared in?.

Relieved to discover that other grown-up people are juvenile enough to have a favourite Scooby Doo character, delighted that for many of you it's
Velma. I like to think that whoever first drew Velma was a Velvet Underground
fan and based her appearance on every VU fan's best-loved Velvet, drummer
Maureen Tucker. (Go on, imagine Velma wearing dark glasses ... see?) That would
be why she's best mates with proto-slacker Shaggy, of course ... in the gang as
in the band, it's the quiet one who's the coolest!
chrisw 1/14/03
Does anyone have any more info about what the upcoming DTV scoobydoo
is going to be about? Are the characters going to follow the same format in the
previous videos or are they going back to being teens? Also, does anyone think
that will expand on Fred and Daphne's relationship?
jreb 1/3/03
I guess the question is does "Whats's new Scooby Doo" need saving?
Well the W.B. does keep pre-enpting it, and they also keep rerunning
episodes. As the gang might say-in police work they call that a Clue. Or that doesn't bode
well for a show! Ok I could say it's the fault of a certain top 40 Disk
Jockey [who too darn old to play a teenager] or it's on too eary, and that the last
two episoids were somewhat "green". who died and made them
"Cptain Planet"] Don't get me wrong I like the show [Mindy makes a good Velma
suprise! but the gang doesn't fight monsters with cards or throw balls that turn into cuite little
monsters or fight in marsall arts contests! In short Scooby does not do what 5
to 10 years olds like-like fight guys!O well the show will make a good edition
to the Scooby Universe!
Stefanie 12/30/02
The movie Scooby Doo is a very good movie. its
simple lieture. These kids know that they could be killed but somehow they pull throw with
Saggy and Scooby. It saying as a cartoon to never give up. Like I look up to Velma.
I study her. I even dress like her. Who plays her is (Lina Cardellini) I
just love her. I'm hoping that they come out with another Scooby Doo movie with the same
actors. I don't now what else to say. I love Scooby Doo. My name is Stefanie but my friends call me Velma!!!!!!!!

Chere Vera,
This was supposed to go in the "letters" section of the
website, but I am on a public computer in a Paris hotel and I felt a
little embarassed about revealing that information in public to the
whole world. Anyway, guess what is the hot new color combination? You
guessed it, orange and red. I guess the "Velma Dinkley" look is in--even the salesgirl at the department store mentioned your name in conjunction with the look! Daphne should be so jealous! You DO have good sense in fashion. Anyway, I gotta run, this is on a timed internet card and I hae about a minute left.Au
Revoir, a la prochaine fois.
Mlle. Dinkley 12/24/02
This is in answer to 'Will's' letter from 12-22: the UK uses the PAL
system, and is on a different DVD region, so the US version of the DVD would not
be playable overseas. I did, however, talk to some friends in Europe who said
that those same episodes are available on a DVD in Europe under a different
title. (I don't recall the title). If you have a multi region DVD player, then
you can view the US version w/o having to worry about the conversions.
Will 12/22/02
I've heard about 'Scooby's Original Mysteries' on DVD containing the
first 5 Scooby episodes. Is this just a US DVD or will it be released in the UK
soon? Coz i'd like to get it - those episodes are cool, especially 'What A
Night For A Knight'.
Webmaster- The
UK uses a different TV system. Not sure if a PAL version was made. (US=NTSC,
UK=PAL) Anyone?

Webmaster- The

site.

I don't know if this is very important, but... Do Fred, Daphne, Shaggy or Velma
have middle names (that were revealed)? Thanks! Love your site.
Freddy
I was just wondering...you know that new Scooby-Doo TV show, "What's
New Scooby-Doo?" I haven't seen it yet, and I have heard of this new girl named
"Jay." Who is Jay?

Dear Mr. Likeglass
OK I've really enjoy this website! And I had a lot of fun Emailing Velma.[see
did'nt seem to like my last qustion] But one thing I'ed like to know is where you
get some of the more trival factoids about Velma and the rest of Mystery inc.as
well? I mean stuff like Velma's middle name or the fact there hometown is in
Ohio.[does this mean that all thoese sea monsters,Shark Gods, and ghost pirates
come out of Lake Erie]I can't recall any of this information comeing out on the
show! Looks like to me that this is as much as a mystery as any Velma would take
on herself! Thanks Rich.
Webmaster- Can't
give away all the secrets ;)

Was just curious what caused the original Daphne - Stefanianna Christopherson
to leave the Scooby Doo Where Are You Show? It's very obvious in her last
episode That's Snow Ghost that she was more miserable in that episode than all the
others where she was perky and happy. Also when Heather North took over the role of
Daphne in the 1970 it's obvious she played the part of Daphne differently.
The original Daphne took no nonsense from Freddy while Heather gives in to anything
Freddy wants when she plays the part. I feel that both actresses played the part
of Daphne well it's just that their styles were different. I like Stefanianna's spunk but also Heather's more subdued approach too.

Glad I found the site again. After it was moved from acmecity I couldn't find it even in searches, and tryinmg various domain name combinations.
(I thought I would have tried "velmadinkley.com", but apparently got tired and
gave up before that. I liked the site so much because it had so much information
on the voices. (There's a discussion going on now at Toonzone forum on Velma's
voice). Well I guess you haven't heard the big news-- There's a rumor going around
(supposedly from insiders) that the next Scooby animated movie will being back
not only Heather North, but also NICOLE JAFFE. I sure hope it's true, as Velma has never been the same. This to me would be the
best thing to haoppen to Scooby in the last 30 years, nearly. The movie (Vampire
Island) is for real, as trailers for it already appeared on the new Scooby Meets
Batman DVD. Also, the original style animation and remakes of the music pieces.
Another movie is to follow. Too bad the new series wasn't done like this.
I also felt Kellie Martin, who did Daphne on A Pup Named Scooby would have been
a good Velma. Daphne in that series had taken on much of Velma's wit anyway
(while Velma hardly spoke at all. This is what I see as one of the flaws of that
show)
Also it is not true that Scrappy is the cause of Pat Stevens' departure. The
entire first season of Scrappy had the whole gang, and Stevens did most of the
episodes. Then towards the end, she left and was replaced by Maria Frumkin (not
covered on your page) for four episodes. So there was some other reason Stevens
left, because the role was not quite over yet. Then the gang was retired for a
few years, but in 1984 Velma made guest reappearances and it was Frumkin
returned.
Other news, I was a bit disappointed in the Scooby Meets Batman DVD because it
did not restore the edited clip of Velma and Batman discussing the dangers of
counterfeiting. That was one of her most deepest lines, but was cut out of all
of CN/Boom/KWB airings for some reason (It was in the syndicated and USA copies
though). Another edit in one of the Don Knotts episodes has Fred take Velma and
leave Daphne behind with the others.
