"Velma is an adult animated comedy series telling the origin story of Velma Dinkley, the unsung and underappreciated brains of the Scooby-Doo Mystery Inc. gang," the statement said. "An original and humorous spin that unmasks the complex and colorful past of one of America's most beloved mystery solvers."

The response online was quick and Kaling responded.
