I disagree on the story part. Well at least in terms of character and how it develops character. The Jason Todd episode is a perfect example of how this show handles character development really really well. It shows instead of telling and creates counterpoints. Even the whole idea of them being a makeshift family going up against the nuclear family is a good way to illustrate it. But yeah for the most part, its on par with the dope shyt we've gotten.

As far as I'm concerned, none of these live action comic book shows from any one of the big two have topped the better animated versions we've gotten:yeshrug:
meh i havent been blown away by a single ep so far (havent watched the newest one yet) so i cant say the story is dope just yet. Havent gotten an emotional moment like "run barry, run" or an extremely dope fight like with the daredevil series or fantastic character development like in the punisher series. Thats just me tho :yeshrug: im enjoying it nonetheless. Hopefully at some point these characters take a bath (other than dikk) and starfire changes her clothes :francis:

Question for you, @Cognoscente and everyone else here: What are your qualifications for something being the greatest series? Cause I'm feeling this a lot right now but I can't quite go that far yet
The series is dope but I don't think it's GOAT at the moment. I honestly didn't think much of it when it was first announced and based upon the behind scenes set photos I saw months prior I had low expectations going in but the show has been good.

I can't call it the GOAT yet because something is holding it back. I don't know what it is yet.

Daredevil is probably GOAT superhero show.

This is good, like Flash/Arrow (with slade) first season good as far as quality and comic nostalgia BUT it’s missing that villain to make it a goat series...


It’s got the potential though.

I’m not taking daredevil over Batman animated or JLU or JL or spectacular Spider-Man :manny:

Robin's suit is so the criminals are distracted by him while Batman swoops down unnoticed? :ohhh:

Robin 2.0 beating the shyt out of the cops was :banderas:

That’s from dark knight returns. Batman has a line about two face calling robin “decoy” and how it fukked with him

Bro I’m strictly talking about live action shyt

No one was talking about any of the cartoons.. they don’t even count

Fair enough lol. But why aren’t we counting them? I definitely count the Simpsons when I’m thinking about the greatest shows of all time and it’s high on that list. Same with the boondocks or futurama

For all the talk about how dikk was acting like Jason that's been going on, I'm glad we had this episode to show the differences between the two characters. This show's dikk is angry and violent, but it's less about resembling Jason and more about the crossroads he is at in life. Everyone wants happy go lucky dikk, but he's not there right now. Instead, we're meeting him when he's at something of a low point. He doesn't know who he is, and he is harboring a deep resentment to the closest thing he has to a family right now.

What became clear to me during this episode while Jason was grilling dikk was that regardless of whatever cause dikk and Bruce to fall out, dikk is simply using Bruce as a scapegoat for his problems. dikk loved being Robin, and as Jason noted, probably still wants to be despite what he says. However, he's still holding onto the anger from his parents' murder and is aiming that at Bruce. Even Kori has noted that dikk doesn't want to actually deal with his problems.

Leading the Titans will obviously be the thing that leads to dikk actually getting his shyt together, and probably have him make the transition to Nightwing.

Honestly I can appreciate Daredevil but I never gaf like that

All the CW shows are really trash to me

I’m just really feeling the character interpretations in this series, even Raven whom I didn’t think I was going to like

Just need Starfire to lose the coat and get a better weave/wig

I always liked Tren Titans and I had my doubts but now i really like it
