   This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's actually pretty great. Love the dynamic between Rachel and Kory, love Thwaites, really diggin the whole "dark, edgy" vibe. I think the major problem with is the fact that by episode three we haven't really had a glimpse of who is the bad guy, the big bad of the season, but that is just eclipsed by the DC Energy that the show have.… Expand

Greg Berlanti is producing, which means his extreme politics will likely find their way into the show... but they haven't yet.
   
   Robin, played by Dean Venture, is a little light weight for the gravitas they are trying to pretend his character has.
   Of course anyone trying to give Robin gravitas is very confused.
   
   Fairuza Balk plays Raven as well as she has played this character before and actually manages to upstage most of the rest of the cast. Ironically, she is one of the bright spots of this series.
   
   Starfire, is played stiffly by RuPaul and honestly I'm just waiting for the actress to do something worth commenting on.
   
   Hiro Hamada is Beast (singular) Boy. I keep wanting him to be Greg Cipes, but there is potential given time.
   
   Blood. Lots of blood. Poorly filmed fight scenes. Lots of brooding. Many MANY liberties taken.
   
   So why an 8? To enjoy this you must forget everything you know about DC's properties or these characters. Just ride the addictive crazy train that it is. It's a bit like Gotham that way.
   
   I'm still not sure why DC thinks they need everything dark and gritty. My best memories of their material has always been the bright and happy. (SEE: Teen Titans Go To The Movies)… Expand

   Watching Titans was confusing and entertaining at the same time. If that makes any sense.
   
   It made me shake my head when Raven was oneWatching Titans was confusing and entertaining at the same time. If that makes any sense.
   
   It made me shake my head when Raven was one screen, it made me role my eyes with the poor choreographed fight scenes, but it made me hopeful at the potentially great story that can come.People were bashing starfire simply for her suit, but in my opinion she was the best part of the pilot.
   
   But it's a promising start, for the series, and i really think that this slow start will payoff in the end (of the season)… Expand

   Dark, gritty and violent. Definitely not for kids. And symptomatic of all that's wrong with the DC forays into live action. Let's start withDark, gritty and violent. Definitely not for kids. And symptomatic of all that's wrong with the DC forays into live action. Let's start with the main issue that I have with this, i.e. Starfire. while everyone looks about the right age to keep within the boundaries of the Teen Titans history, albeit without the teen, Starfire looks way too old to be in this role. While Dick looks about right for someone in his early 20s to be leading the team (someone with a little bit more experience than a kid), Starfire looks about right to be the mum who's waiting for everyone at home....in her $5 hooker outfits. I'm at a total loss as to why the show cannot dress her in something else without making her look like she should be standing on a street corner.
   
   Raven, completely one dimensional. Her main role seems to be to act sad, scared and angry. That's it. Beast Boy seemed to be the only one who had the potential to shine and then...nothing. DC decided to just plop him in a corner and showcase someone with cool green hair instead. Robin who now seems to be super violent (think DC's answer to Frank Castle) and so dark I'm constantly wondering why he doesn't just put on the Bat outfit instead.
   
   There also doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to each episode either. Hawk & Dove - why ? Absolutely no connection to the anchor story or any reason for them to be in that episode. Doom Patrol - why ? The throwaway attempt to provide some backdrop to Beast Boy could have been done in one sentence instead of an entire episode. Both these episodes did absolutely nothing except to say "Hey, DC also has some other cool characters".
   
   The way this series is going, is typical of DC's arrogance in just about every attempt they have made into live action, i.e. "You will take it and by god you will like it !" Except, as the latest disaster of the crew leaving Justice League has shown, actually DC, no, we don't have to like it. Heck even your own people don't like it.… Expand

The characters areI would rather be forced to watch every episode of TEEN TITANS GO! on repeat for a year than more of this try hard stinker. The characters are only loosely based on their original versions and then only when its needed to remind you they are from a well known franchise. Any other time they are generic and trying extra hard to be moody and angsty. Would have likely had a better time had they made their own characters because as it stands it doesnt live up to other iterations, not even GO!.… Expand
