I love this show. I know that only two episodes are out so far, but I can tell that is is going to blow Titans away. It does not take itself seriously at all. I feel that this is what DC wanted to happen with Suicide Squad. Warner Bros. We need a Doom Patrol movie ASAP. It is great to see Brendan Fraser again, as he kind of disappeared for a while. I don't know any of the other actor, but I think that they're all doing a great job. All of the characters are super complex and multi-dimensional, and I love how they are given actual backstories. Titans preferred to just left stuff happen to move the plot forward and not care about anybody else except for Dick Grayson. The effects are pretty good for the most part, but it still looks pretty bad when CGI is used. I love the costume for Robotman, as it looks really cool and real. Cyborg looks a little bit fake, but everything else is so good that it's the only thing that stands out. Mr. Nobody, who is also the narrator, directly addresses the audience, so there is a feeling of some Deadpool-esque fourth wall breaking. Overall, the show is one of my favorites so far and I hope that the rest is just as good.

As a DC and Teen Titans fan, this show did not satisfy me. When Man of Steel came out, I didn't understand why people were so angry about Superman being all mopey and sad (and also breaking the villain's neck). Now I know what they felt. The Teen Titans are not supposed to be a team of Batmen. They're supposed to be funny, much like the short-lived 2000s TV show. The show takes way too long focusing on Dick Grayson and not any other members of the team. Kory is very annoying and does not act like a hero at all. She literally cares more about being scolded by Dick rather than the fact that a WHOLE FAMILY JUST GOT THEIR HEADS BLOWN UP. Rachel is boring, and she is also really useless in a fight. I'm okay with that at the starts of a series, but she gets little to no character development, as does most of the characters with her. The highlight character is Gar, as he is the only comic relief we get other than Robin banter. He also gets an actual arc, and his is much better than Dick's. The best parts are the non-Titans characters (Hank and Dawn, Jason Todd, Doom Patrol). Most of the feel like actual people and make us want to see more of them. There is a weird blue tint to EVERY. SINGLE. FRAME. The editing is horrendous, as characters will say something, then say the same exact thing two seconds later. Since everything looks the same, it makes no difference if somebody just moved across the country. The good parts are the action scenes with Dick, as they are brutal and character even comment on his brutality. The reason he gives to support why he like to stab guys in the area that no man wishes to be stabbed in are that Batman, the guy who likes to show restraint, is making Dick so brutal. No. Most o the acting is pretty sub-par, and any time they use CGI it looks SO fake. Overall, I may be too harsh, as I am a comics fan, but it is a sub-par TV show, and I don't get why I see people saying that it is "far from the competition. Seriously? Have none of you seen Daredevil, Jessica Jones, The Punisher, Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, or Legends of Tomorrow? (If not, watch them, they're pretty good, but the CW shows get cringy sometimes) I am not a DC hater, I actually prefer DC, but when I see characters I love given the obligatory "Dark Knight" treatment, it usually falls flat. I hope season two goes a little lighter, as I would love to love this series.
