What went so wrong with this show?
Titans (TV series)
Season 1 was great. The Hawk/Dove stuff was awesome. Season 2 was lame.
They ripped off like half a dozen direct-to-DVD horror movies with their introduction of Raven, so that's a start
Basically everything.
Angsty Dick Grayson could've worked since he was initially very pissed off that Batman fired him from the role but they took that too far into the territory of "Batman is terrible, actually" that most modern writers like to do
Also they cast a senior citizen as Bruce, as much I love Iain Glen's acting chops he's a terrible choice for Batman
Strayed too far from the light.
Didn't have Raven looking like this
I felt like they intended that originally until they realized they can't 1.) afford most of the movie actors and 2.) couldn't make Jason Todd the dead Robin in-canon because it limited their story potential.
Said story "potential" was ass so yes they would have been better off tying this to the DCEU when it aired.
they intended that originally
That explains it being so laughably grimdark.
FUCK BATMAN sank it.
Well the fact they blatantly were ripping off Netflix Daredevil is one part of the issue
I can't find the promotional ad because it got purged, but early in season 1 there was a Robin-centered motion-comic-y one where you see Batfleck's silhouette in smoke.
You mean this one?

The show went all in on the edgy grimdark bullshit that nobody asked for or wanted, because retarded xillenial writers think lots of swearing and blood is mature and adult
Geoff Johns
Greg Berlanti
Grimdark middle aged Dick Grayson
S1 Starfire is literally a whore with the worst wig in the history of cinema
Jailbait Raven. Also, generic white mallgoth with generic judeochristian devil Trigon
Brother Blood is Trigon's son for some reason
Dead Donna
Luthor, Scarecrow, Superboy, etc.
The late season costumes are the only redeeming feature of this dumpster fire of a TV show.
Greg Berlanti
This fucking faggot runs everything he touches that's DC into the fucking ground, the same with that jew Guggenheim. How he kept getting to do it is beyond me
It was lazy and woke
What went so wrong with this show?
No Femboy Raven.
The same thing that happens with every live-action... As if it were a curse.
OG Dove being black, Hawk getting molested.
DC deciding that since its a streaming show they should fo full edgelord
Also as the seasons progress they're all equally terrible people
They cast an excellent actor for Deathstroke
Batwoman and Gotham Knights were shit as well but more entertaining to watch than Titans at least.
The only good Bat adjacent shows worth a damn are Pennyworth and Gotham.
But I can't imagine how anyone simps for Titans beyond that BobaTalks dipshit on Youtube.
the focus should've just been on ravens ass. thats it. thats the entire show. just her dump truck
Kill yourself, Sanjay.
Season 3 when they killed off Hawk, speedrunning A Death In The Family, Joker's death, and Jason briefly reviving as Red Hood.
These shows have no fans.
lots of people liked s1 and half of that liked s2
im not saying it was a good show but it certainly had some merits.
1. I'm not a Snyder guy. I'm saying Titans would have worked better in an existing continuity.
2. I'm looking forward to Gunn's DCU.
preacher was fucking awful, how do you have that much stuff to work with and it still comes out like shit.
it was carried by HERR starrs actor and the saints actor, i didnt mind cassidy and jesse at times though. why the fuck did they turn 10 pages into an entire season?
Gotham Knights
I unironically don't get the hate for that series other than it paled in comparison to Superman & Lois but wasn't intolerable like The Flash's final season.
I unironically don't get the hate
youre unironically a fucking idiot, thats the case.
Good for you. I liked it.
It's nice they have an in-universe Robin reference though. Bale wouldn't let them do it for years.
Season 1 was fine, even if Starfire's wig was fuckawful.
The biggest crime it committed was it stopped being about the Titans themselves and just because the about the adventures of Dick's dick.
Almost character, save for a few like Conner, was horribly miscast. Starfire looked like a cheap hooker and Jason was twink manlet.
And yet far more people have watched this show than have ever read the comics.
