Teen Titans Go!

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, 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!

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.

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.

Teen Titans Go! is a reaction to all those dark and gritty reboots coming up in the superhero genre.

Obviously if you are looking for the dark and gritty Teen Titans, this isn't the show for you.

But if you're into seeing the characters in a fresh light, I say do give it a go.

This show amplifies their personalities and story lines, adapting them in a comical way: like, Robin admiring Batman from afar and being overly-ecstatic and ambitious as a leader trying to get his unconvinced team on board with his absurd plans. It delivers sly and clever digs packaged in a friendly style.

It doesn't take itself seriously. It likes to have fun.
