Teen Titans Go!

Look, I'm not a huge fan of Teen Titans Go either. I'm just utterly shocked at all the reviews that I'm seeing here.

Everyone is criticizing the show because it isn't like the old Teen Titans, and many reasons that will just create a long list that'll probably take the entire day to go through.

But, the fact that people don't understand what this show is supposed to be is really surprising to me.

This is a parody.

HOW HAS NO ONE GOTTEN THAT YET?!

This is supposed to be a more child friendly approach, and a more comedic/Slice Of Life centered Show.

But however, that does not mean the show has problems.

First off, a lot of the episodes are just....really bad.

For example, The True Meaning Of Christmas. This episode has to be the worst of them all!

I don't know why Robin and the others are killing elves, Raven is committing cannibalism on gingerbread people, and the fact that they re supposed to be heroes has a huge say in this!!

This is supposed to be a Christmas Special, not a naughty makeover!

Second, the comedy can most of the time be pretty lackluster. It's basically a hit or miss kind of thing, but to me it was a HUGE miss.

And third, sometimes there are moments in the show where I just want to smash my TV. Those moments I'm talking about are so stupid, so unnecessary, that they're the IQ equivalent of Breadwinners!

But, that's not to say that there aren't some good things to say about Teen Titans Go.

First off, I want to talk about 40%, 40%, 20%.

This episode is without a doubt something amazing. The way it was executed, the animation, everything about it was just spectacular. I'm just gonna say this right now, but this episode felt like something out of the original Teen Titans, and it was pretty epic.

Second, the way they responded to criticism was just downright awesome.

They had an EPISODE dedicated to this! A FULL EPISODE!

I have watched it, and I gotta say that the humor hit very hard that episode in my opinion. The way that it was handled just felt so right, and I just want to give a round of applause to the people behind that episode, because that was pretty clever if you ask me!

And third, I keep talking about episodes, but there are some episodes that are passable, and few that are just hysterical.

I've cruised through the series, and while a majority of the episodes are bad, there is a chunk of episodes that are pretty passable, and a small fragment that are just awesome episodes.

I'm not gonna mention which ones they are, but I'll let you guys find out what they are yourselves. GOOD LUCK!

So overall, Teen Titans Go may not be a very good show, but there are some qualities that make the series passable.

That's the end of this somewhat lackluster review, see ya later!

Obviously, Teen Titans Go has very split reviews. Some LOVE IT, while others ABSOLUTELY LOATHE IT. Those reviews aren't always reliable, so I'm going to tell you the good AND bad parts of TTG.

First, the good. It has what I like to call, anti-moral humor. Basically, that means they show bad morals and behaviors on purpose, to make fun of other shows that have good morals and behaviors (which is what I love about it). I do like how they even address how much people hate TTG and how they make fun of the original TT in some episodes. This shows how much TTG writers DGAF. They also make many 80s and 90s pop culture references/parodies in some episodes such as "40%,40%,20%", one of my personal favorites. These types of humor and references are funny to me and I think parents and teens will get a kick out of them as well. However, this cartoon may be best for older kids because younger children may pick up on the bad behavior, and they may not understand most of the 80s and 90s references (unless you raise them right!).

Now for the bad. I will admit some of the episodes are pretty boring or kind of irritating. TTG doesn't have a plot to it, so sometimes it can get pretty dull. I hate the episodes where they try too hard to make drama or romance. I would like this element of the show much better if they made fun of drama and romance instead of actually being serious about it, (soap opera parody anyone?). They just need to accept that it isn't their thing, and it's not entertaining. I am also not a huge fan of the potty humor or the very rare good morals that appear in some episodes. It just isn't funny, and it's boring to me. Personally, I think TTG would be a lot better if they got rid of all of these boring and annoying parts of the show.

Lastly, I don't love or hate TTG, but I think we can all agree that it plays WAY TOO MUCH on CN. I feel that it would be much more likable if it didn't play 24/7. This title gets a thumbs up and down from CriticalBunniez 👍👎

These people have a large nostalgic love for the first show and because of that their stubbornness doesn't allow for an actual unbiased, critical review on the show. The show is funnier than these people say. These different characters and references are pretty good. They complain that the story is bad, but I dont see it. Each episode is a little story and it's not bad. These oldies bother me because obviously they don't know how to review film, they just saw the old show and thought, we have to compare these two to properly review the film. This show is completely different from the original and I would suggest to never compare them. The problems I have with this show is that some of the jokes can be a little childish, which make sense, but they bore you as you go on. As a kid, I would love this show, but I also watched iCarly and that show wasn't that great. Also the animation is a little lazy. I've seen better, more creative animation. This show is okay. If you're kid is watching, you won't die watching along but it definitely won't be your first choice.

Teen Titans Go is a decent comedy that receives way too much hate. People are comparing it to Teen Titans, which is the problem. Once you accept that these are two different cartoons, the more acceptable the show becomes. If the creators hadn't slapped the 'Teen Titans' in the name of the show, then this would have a better average rating. For a complete cartoon comedy, this show is pretty decent. Sure, the comedy is pretty low-brow at times, but it does have a few clever moments, with acceptable animation. Comparing this to Teen Titans is like comparing Dora the Explorer to the spin-off aimed at a higher demographic; you just can't. Essentially, this is a children's comedy with expectable children's comedy, with the inclusion of a few clever jokes. I would recommend it to children who want to kill ten minutes every once and a while.

Look, this show is NOT the same as Teen Titans (2003). This reminds me of when people got really upset about Batman: The Brave and the Bold because it was campy, retro, and in general more of a Silver Age variety and not dark and gritty like the Nolanverse. BTBATB was a great show because it got people to think about comics and DC heroes in a different way than has been done since the advent of uber-realistic hero films/programming.

I'm a big DCU fan,and I have been for a long time. I also have a young son, and I really enjoy watching this show with him. He's a bit young for me to feel super positive about letting watch some of the darker DC shows (There are some pretty dark ones), but this one, I feel is fine. It's just a bit of fun. I like that he is able to have a show that he enjoys and learns about characters that I grew up reading. The characters share the spirit that the characters have always had, it's just a different interpretation of how to present the characters. It's not for everyone, but what is? Is it ridiculous? Yes. Is it bizarre? Yes. But you know what? Not all DCU shows can (or should even try) to be edgy, boundary pushing explorations of what a hero is. Sometimes it's okay to just have a good time for no reason.
