Was it ever explained who he was? I mean in comic books cause I know they never revealed it on teen titans
Was Red X really Jason Todd or?

To me, my board!
Red X never appeared in the comics. He was strictly an animated series character.
Wow he was a solid character... I thought for sure he appeared in more than just a cartoon
Guess not
Guess not

Beast Boy theorizes that it is Jason Todd in an episode. But there was never an unmasking, no.
Of the characters that are canon (meaning not counting a new person made for the show) based on age, body type and voice (too young to be David Cain, too young and small to be Bronze Tiger, no boobs... so not Lady Shiva or Cassy Cain or any chick based on the voice), and having a skillset comparable to a well trained robin... you are looking at a very short list of candidates, Jason Todd way out in front.
Well, unless the answer is something stupid like a clone of grayson or grayson himself from the future/alternate timeline, or a misc league of assassins member.

This.
Agreed. It has to be Jason Todd. I would have loved to see them actually answer this question. As much as I love Teen Titans Go!, I kinda wish the OG serious got a longer run. There are so many dope TT story arcs they could have covered. Young Justice was dope too, but ended prematurely.
Ha. This was actually pretty funny.

I think cause Young Justice was on durring TT:Go! and DC was doing their cartoon network animation block with Fear the Batman, Super Best Friends, etc... there may have been alot of embargos as to what characters they could use and stuff. The WW embargo kept Wondergirl from appearing in the original TT until basically the last episode and then only as a cameo. So there might have been behind the scenes stuff that kept alot from happening also on TT:Go!. I know BTAS was forbidden from using Deadshot at all (assassin) and Firefly (arson) for many years... and then on JLU they couldnt use Nightwing or Batgirl or any batchars outside of batman for awhile do to similar restraints cause of the Batman Begins movies.

Same with Arrow and The Flash. They can't use the Suicide Squad, Booster Gold, Blue Beetle, Green Lantern etc.

Yeah, that makes sense.
I know both Smallville and the new Supergirl show didnt/dont have the property rights to even say the word Superman.
Thats why they call him 'your brother' 'the man in blue' and 'the big s' and other lame shyt on the Supergirl show. Cause man of steel, last son of krpton... all that shyt is out of their price range. They have the licence to Supergirl, not Superman... and its painfully obvious.

See, with Smallville they just avoided it altogether... so it wasnt bad.
But with Supergirl they are really tryna skirt the line cause the writting is garbage. So they want to milk the recognition.
I could barely get through the Supergirl pilot.
I just rewatched it. Its very weird cause they say Superman exactly one time... at the begining then its all "him" and "he" and "my cousin" "hero" like that one time is all they negotiated for
James'Olsen calls him "My friend in blue"

Its ridiculous. I don't think they cant even say the word Kent. Likely why they changed her origin story (and last name) from Kent. They clearly wanted the Kara name cause its the most popular version of SG... but they used the Danvers last name. They definitely aren't using the Linda Danvers version of supergirl, my guess would be they just cant legally call her Kent.
I actually wish they would use the Linda Danvers version, cause the flaming angel wings are
but of course they are using boring Kara.
They need to just cancel it and do a Powergirl series on showtime or hbo where her big titties bounce around most of the show.
Now, thats something I could get behind.
I'd pre-order the bluray.

Speaking of childhood shows... what messed me up is learning that Mighty Morphing Power Rangers is not the first season of Power Rangers. Its just the first one they aired in the US.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is like season 16 or 17 of the show if I remember.
There are over 15 seasons that they just omit for US audiences.
How much of an a$$hole do you have to be to start showing ppl a tv show 16 seasons in and never let them know that.
Thats why so much shyt didnt make sense and they had to reshoot and add exclusive american scenes.
The japanese version is an entirely different show. Each ranger has a motorcycle and they do car chases and shyt. Each ranger's alt identity is trained in the weapon their power ranger identity uses... so for example, the chick thats the pink ranger is actually a master archer. So there are scenes where she is sniping cats with the bow but in her civillian fit, not morphed.
They just cut all that shyt out of the US version and splice in comedy routines with Bulk & Skull to fill the difference.
