DC Super Hero Girls

As a mom, i think it is a nice show for the kids. I appreciate the modest outfit choices of the characters. Many kid shows nowadays are sexualizing the cartoon characters but this show is modest compared to most. It reminds me of a toned down Monster high.

I love dc universe animated series and movies. Many are not appropriate for my younger kids and it's unfair. I want to introduce them to the superhero world and this is a great show to start. It's obvious the writer's and artist know and respect the DC universe. Each character adds a certain charm to the show and each can help teach your kids about the dc character. Many references to the characters back story are included and i love that, as a fan.

This show is nothing like the classic animated batman shows you watched on WB. It's far less violent and the dialogue and humor is obviously less dark. There's plenty of lessons, loyal friendships, kind heartedness, and morals in each story, it's not completely mindless. It's a cute show and I don't think it's fair to compare it to an adult animated movie. It's not aimed at adults. I wouldn't watch it alone for fun as i do with Justice League or Batman animated series but give it a break. I turn it on for the kids as I'm doing laundry in the same room and i can tolerate it quite well.

My kids love this show and I do too! I understand it's for kids and the stories aren't deep. But it's still cool to see such a WIDE variety of characters from the lore. They pull characters from everywhere and it's really cool! My kids are boys, but this show is so good to inspire young girls and friendship. Also, I like this animation style better than the other version of this show.

I've never had a problem with the idea of kid centric superhero since most of them are presented in a way that kids can understand and relate to while still having an appeal to everyone, like with DC Superhero Girls. The show centers on various DC Comics characters attending Super Hero High, which is run by Amanda Waller. The show focuses on seven main characters: Wonder Woman (Grey DeLisle Griffin), Super Girl (Anais Fairweather), Bat Girl (Mae Whitman), Bumblebee (Teala Dunn), Harley Quinn (Tara Strong), Poison Ivy (Tara Strong), and Katana (Stephanie Sheh). To end this review on a positive note, I want to get the flaws out of the way.

1. Some of the season 1 shorts (not counting the hero of the month ones) were a bit too short. Thankfully, it's more consistent in season 2, with the shorts regularly being 2.5 minutes long, the hero of the month shorts are 1.5 minutes, and the special ones are 3.5-4 minutes long.

2. Katana is underutilized, even in season 2, but is still likable.

Now for the positives.

1. The humor is quite clever due to its wide appeal.

2. The characters feel like themselves. They're just in comedic situations. Harley and Ivy being heroes doesn't bother me since this show is its own continuity and they still have some things in common with their comic counterparts. Plus, even with Katana underutilized, everyone gets a chance to shine.

3. The core message of the series is about the different ways everyone can be a hero, which is a good message for kids and adults.

4. The show has shown remarkable improvements over the past few months, essentially listening to the critics and trying to fix its mistakes, unlike say Teen Titans Go.

The show is flawed, but still well written. Because of the improvements, I give it a perfect score.

DC haven't been doing well lately. Everything they made in 2016 was below average, and everything in 2017 (except for The Lego Batman Movie and Wonder Woman) that they've made or are making don't really interest me too much. This show is for some reason ''Decent enough'' as in, the new world they've made for the girls is sort of interesting and I guess it's kinda fun to see what happens in their everyday school life? I mean, there's still low brow humour but I guess I can't complain because everyone does it in kids shows nowadays but for Christs sake kids are also treated to shows like Gravity Falls, Star vs. the Forces Of Evil, Steven Universe, and The Loud House so why does no one care about kids animation? Just put effort into your work is what I'm saying. Other than the plot, there's not much left to be honest. The voice acting is good (Tara Strong as Harley Quinn is a great example), the animation isn't the worst flash animation I've ever seen, the intro song is pretty good, the characters are likable and that's pretty much it. It's not the worst thing DC's made but definitely one of the weakest. Little girls will love this. My cousins like it. So there is SOME appeal. My main criticisms with the show is mainly the lack of adult appeal if adults are watching this with their kids, the animation is fine and lazy at the same time, and one that is pretty much my only pet peeve with the show because I'm a DC fanboy is Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy becoming heroes. Harley is a school prankster in this one and her craziness which usually adds to her charm in most DC animation is now over the top to the point where I want her to shut up, and Poison Ivy hasn't done anything to become a hero, she's just, THERE. I don't know, just a fanboy problem. This show if fine. It's average. Kids will eat this up while I sit here waiting for Justice League to come out so I can see if it's good.

Quick side note, terrible shows can't always just be justified with "it's a kids show". Kids deserve quality too.

The show focuses on short adventures from perspective of female superheros. That's pretty much it.

I don't mind that there is a female focus, what really bugs me though is that they are teenagers and their adventures are just average teenage girl things disguised with the superhero genre.

Like there is an episode about batgirl trying to get her liscense, I won't spoil it but think of the most unoriginal ending and the first one that comes to mind is pretty much what happens.

The people behind this obviously had no creative stories so they disguised their unoriginal material with superheros so kids won't get bored straight away.

The run time is short though so it won't make you suffer for too long but the short run time makes it more pointless to watch.

If you want to entertain your (very) young kids with just a simple then this isn't the worst option but it will become boring after a little while so I reccomend switiching over to something better
