Teen Titans GO: 10 Years of Hate

Teen Titans Go taught me how to commit tax fraud at 8 years old, 10/10

To me, Teen Titans Go is the Cartoon Network version of Family Guy where everyone likes the random clips taken throughout the show than the actual show itself.

Yeah, now that you mention it....

[@Gold_Gamer_100]

Wait that's so real

[@MCCUBED]

To me, there's been three stages of hate throughout this show's run: 1. Hate because it isn't a follow-up to 2003 Teen Titans 2. Hate because the show is low quality and overly childish 3. Hate because this is just about the one and only thing on Cartoon Network at this point with literally everything else coming and going but TTG still taking up literally almost all of the schedule

[@CombatSportsNerd]

OK, so I’m not the only one who’s kind confused by the fact that teen titans go has a habit of cannibalizing the Cartoon Network schedule?

[@Smuggy-de5eq]

I actually like the show-

[@BirdsandGhibliFan]

I can understand the third point of contention. It’s the same problem Nick has with SpongeBob and (formerly) “The Loud House” cannibalizing the Nickelodeon schedule. Edit: Recently, there isn’t much over saturation of TTG the way it used to be anymore.

[@olleselin]

Yeah, why is it that the CN execs are only sucking up to this one?

[@ajgameguy3674]

Funny part is that, if the show stuck with the writing in the first season and didn't devolve, the hate probably would've stuck to stage one. The first season was lowkey okay. Obviously not topping the OG, but it worked for what it was. The moment the show started getting passive aggressive about the hate it was getting and made it a habit, that was when I personally started to dislike it, CN spamming it on the schedule for days on end also didn't help things.

[@anamelesshobo7868]

I dislike it because its become CN’s spongebob. It had consumed the schedule to the point where for any new shows the reruns air during school hours

[@Birdteai]

Yeah their decision caused me to completely stop watching TV. At the time I was only into a few cartoon Network shows so when they made the schedule switch. I gave up and started only watching content through streaming.

[@quintzeee]

I remember being 13 when this show came out, and was still getting used to how to being in online spaces. I remember watching the Mr.Enter video on the waffles and Slade episode and was like "yeah those episode kinda sucked". For the most part, I was indifferent, and at times, liked the show. Like any normal kid, I just watched other shit and didn't care as much. Then I got older and just looked at the show like "wait, it's still airing?" My only real gripe with the show was that it took up like 90% of the airing schedule for the longest time.

[@derekrequiem4359]

Hello there!

[@GeneralKenobi75]

@CaramelSkull78 Thank you. I may not care much for TTG. But it's hardly worth the visceral hate its gotten. "Worst show ever?" Not even close.

[@NemesisDusk]

The series has gone on for so long that parts of the Internet have gaslit themselves into thinking it was always good, or "became good." Haters and critics gave up when they realized no amount of heckling, video essays or social media rants would stop it, and so they gave up.

[@BirdsandGhibliFan]

Perhaps. As someone who did not grow up watching the original “Teen Titans”, I don’t really have a strong attachment, positive or negative, to “Teen Titans Go”. But, as mid as the show might be, I believe there a lot worse shows out there.

[@NemesisDusk]

@ Oh yeah, the show is mid as fuck, but I think the hate it’s not about its actual quality but about what it represents. It represents mediocrity, decadence; a once great network settling for the minimum. It happened to Nickelodeon with SpongeBob and TLH, and it happened to CN with this

[@BirdsandGhibliFan]

⁠@@NemesisDusk I agree. The complacency and aversion to trying new things and taking risks from these networks is what bothers me more. Even if these shows were good, I don’t think they should dominate the whole cable schedule. I also think it’s a shame that valid criticism of TTG is being overshadowed by or being lumped in with the more unreasonable portions of the Internet wanting to bandwagon on the show.

[@DanielJacobs-rz1zl]

[@HeilRay]

Yea people seem to forget this VERY importent detail when the DC Nation block was on CN with Green Lantern, Amethyst, and the Teen Titans Shorts. It was a clear bait and switch that Cartoonshi didnt bring up enough. Full "Just put the fries in the bag moment, kinda..

[@kingbash6466]

I remember checking out of TTG after the Slade episode purely because instead of the committing to the idea of the first few episodes where the Titans dealt with somewhat normal things when they weren't crime fighting, they just spend most of the time self-depricating and being meta. Those aren't bad things to have in a show, but with TTG, it feels more like that's the only thing that really have going for in terms of staying relevant instead of it being a genuinely clever element to an already strong series. Outside of the movie I haven't given this series the time or day of my attention for over a decade.

[@ajgameguy3674]

In the same boat. The first couple of episodes were actually enjoyable. But it was when the show started making it a habit to mock how it got so much hate but was still successful that I started noping out of it. Not at all helped by how CN really liked to plaster the show all over the schedule, to the point I started to see other CN shows less and less. Which led to the show getting more hate, which led to the show making itself more obnoxious and meta, which led to more hate, and so on and so forth. It was like a negative feedback loop with no signs of stopping. TTG became CN's Spongebob, and alot of folks were not for that (especially people that were fans of the OG show).

[@QT3.14-w2p]

@agamerguy3674 I can kinda respect the hating on the crew's part, and cartoonshi is right that the crew has good reason to make these episodes, tho they got old after a while. (Maybe it has to do with how hating on the show has gotten old and I prefer we just move on?) Anyway yeah the show is like. Whatever. And I haven't seen any episodes in years but it can be pretty funny at times. 🤷‍♀️

[@OliverOils]

​@@QT3.14-w2pfor me the worst episodes are probably the ones nobody remembers cause I remember seeing people's best/worst episode list of TTG back in 2017 and I never really agreed with them I just think it's kinda funny, even the ones that make fun of the viewers the worst thing it can do is have episodes that people are indifferent about

[@itsjustbusiness1989]

Although I don't care for TTG, I can see the vision. If they had just stuck to being a superhero parody and had none of the "hating the haters" self aware stuff, I can see the show being at least somewhat better received...but instead, they want to appeal to kids, which means the most lowbrow braindead jokes with some fetish undertones because apparently that's what kids like. It sucks too because I actually liked the movie. It's exactly what I wanted out of TTG. Like I said, I can see the potential the show would've had. If only the team and CN saw it that way as well.

[@Squorzel]

Yeah i remember actually liking the movie quite a bit, but whenever I’d try to see what the show was about, I’d question my existence.

[@lovetrain2455]

@@ajgameguy3674 Doesn’t matter if they’re not the same; they are in a team making this show, and shows have teams involving these roles. They still should not be hated. Also, when it comes to comments like these, people usually don’t try saying who exactly the executives are or go by a specific name (Like, is it the CEO, or the specific person) and go like, "Oh, it's an executive, they are bad" blah blah. Also, you said, "Executives are usually the ones that make dumb decisions." Kevin Feige and Pete Doctor, who is the Chief Creative Officer (CCO) of Pixar, exist. Oh yeah, James Gunn also exists, who is the Cc-CEO of DC Studios. Now, look at the third word in the term CEO. What do you read? The E in CEO stands for executive. That would classify James Gunn as an executive. So, would that make him one of those making dumb decisions as you and others claim? Lastly, how do we know the executives made dumb decisions? We don’t know what’s going on behind the scenes.

Those episodes genuinely made me super uncomfortable and especially now cuz these characters are minors! What I'm saying is, there is genuine criticisms to say about this show. That isn't just "its cringe", "it ruined my childhood" or whatever.

While I don't outright hate Teen Titans Go, I hate how it's success affected Cartoon Network. Not just from how they oversaturated it by having it take up most of a day's time slot, but also from how they tried to repeat it's success by taking TTG's cheaper animation and cynical writing and pushing it into other properties such as Powerpuff Girls 2016, Ben 10 2016, and Thundercats Roar. Thankfully all of that slop was rejected by the fans and they all faced cancellation, so while TTG still manages to go on, it's brainrot won't likely spread to any more good shows.

Heck, one can potentially even make a decent argument that it's massive success and CN milking it had a hand in helping create the current wave of animated revivals and reboots we are experiencing today.

[@ScuffedF]

Its hard to believe that instead of animation improving, its actually ended up backsliding into a form that is worse than what came before 2010. Im shocked at some of the amateur garbage that has been created lately which they try to pass off as 'quality'. The 90s had WAY better quality than this horsesh*t.

[@Ronboy-20]

I think the reaction to this show wouldn't have been nearly as vitriolic if the original just didn't end with a cliffhanger. That said, even as a kid who watched these types of KZbinrs a lot during the 2010s, I could tell the hate was overblown. I think part of it was the culture surrounding media criticism at the time, where it was more about being entertainingly angry rather than properly critiquing something. TTG just happened to be the most profitable punching bag. I remember Vailskibum of all people was one of the first people to say "dude, chill out. It's not that bad."

I really didn’t care if it was meant to entertain kids, that’s good for them, but my only issue would have to be CN over airing the show constantly, not the problems with the show itself Edit: go check what shows were on CN in 2017 & you’ll see what I mean, (6 shows excluding ttg)

[@MOON-tk3gb]

Very heavy on this point. I don't even hate ttg but it's the fact it would take up most of the programming schedule when I used to watch the channel made me grow a little resentment towards it. Like, why couldn't this space go towards new shows that have potential? Those shows won't even get a chance to find their audience before getting kicked off the air after a season or two. Same with nickelodeon and their constant running of spongebob. I just wish there was more consideration put into the channel.

[@emmarod8746]

I’m pretty sure the schedule programming has been more diverse in recent years but I do agree that it was getting way more airtime back in the day.

As someone who didn’t really mind TTG when I was younger, it’s sad how much hate this show gets. Sure it went on for too long, but it had its cool moments, like some of the songs. I know it could never hold a candle to the OG Teen titans, but that doesnt mean we’d be better off without it. Also I doubt even this is safe from cancellation cuz it’s being removed from Max.

[@Ijustusethistocommentstuff]

The only thing that makes me happy about its potential cancellation is that they can finally make a cable schedule that isn't a 10 hour block of TTG. If they didn't also cancel all their other shows because they didn't do TTG numbers on bad timeslots and no marketing.

[@Ezel_142]

I never really enjoyed the show, but I also never had the energy to truly hate on it. I realized that it was not meant to be a sequel to the original show, but instead just a parody or more casual show with the same characters, and I'm fine with it, but I do feel like the humor in that show just kinda sucks for the most part, and I've a feeling that it kind of popularized these kinds of kids comedy shows with kind of random stupid humor, which I guess works for children, but you quickly get sick of it. It's obviously not 100% like that, it has some occasional creative moments, but overall it is what it is. At least I'll give it that: the show was like that from the start, and it's pretty self aware about it, and I respect it for that. I much prefer it over shows just gradually changing completely from the original material to the point it's unrecognisable.

There are a lot of goofy and comedic episodes like the Mad Mod episodes, Mumbo Jumbo episodes, Employee of the Month, the dating episode and the second the Control Freak episode, sure there are dark episodes like the Slade episodes but Slade barely shows up and those episodes are heavily far between. Teen Titans OG tone wise is heavily comparable to Rise of the TMNT and Amphibia

[@auggie4269]

You took the words right out of mouth when it came to the actual criticism of the show, how it has a lot of potential but just doesn’t lock in nearly as much as it should. I also feel like it became the patient zero that everyone points to when another remake of a classic series that drastically simplifies the artstyle and aims more at younger audiences and say ‘TTG caused this to happen’.

I agree there is an overreaction, but I get where it's coming from. . . . all I can say is that it sucks when a show you grew up with, gets turned into key-jangling slop for people under the age of 6, especially when it likely wasn't the vision of the original creator. It's just so uncool to bully a legacy and disregard any potential to create an impactful continuation of a franchise, just to chase maximum financial profit, in my opinion.... But I get it, WB needs even more money. And at least the show improved. The make-a-wish & tax fraud episodes are my favorite for just how far the writers are willing to stray away from what the Teen Titans were known for

[@JeremyBX]

Disclaimer - im not even a DC Comics fan person tbh; i just experienced a similar watering-down with my personal favorite show and understand why the overreaction is so unhingefully saturated

[@Hyeeba]

Fun fact: I discovered this show when it first aired. I was a fan of the original show at the time, and I watched the show to try and get some content to join the TTG Haters cult cause that's what was popular online back then. I watched one episode and fell so in love. For a lil while I tried to deny it but I adore this show. It's become a huge comfort for me although I think after about season 4 or 5 the show kinda lost its charm. The writers very clearly ran out of episode ideas and I can kind of tell the new episodes are just them writing without having to try, which really sucks cause the first few seasons really were the best crap around. I never would have known about this show and how amazing it is if it wasn't for the TTG Haters destroying the internet so there's that at the very least.

[@ThatBugBehindYou]

The only thing I disliked about the show back in the day was how much the writers bragged about it being the most successful show on the platform and that haters had no foundation. Yeah CN played the show 100 times in a day and cut out everything else, of course it was successful. That was 10 years ago now back when you'd check the schedule and it would be a wall of literally nothing but TTG. Nowadays it's better, I guess, the schedule still has three two hour blocks of TTG a day and it looks like there's nothing new on the entire platform anymore. But that was the real reason for the hate, the show could've been good, could've been mid, doesn't matter, of course people were going to hate it when it killed the network's schedules all the while nothing new was given any opportunity to breathe.

[@TheChristianShow19]

As I get close to finishing my Ranking video of Teen Titans Go! I will say it's not the worst show in the world, but it certainly isn't an underrated classic. I think Alpha Jay summarized it best: it wants to be its own thing, be a comedy show and make people laugh, but at the same time it wants to be antagonistic and piss people off. And it makes for a show that for the most time I've watched it very painful, dull and boring to watch.

I'm glad this video was made, cause honestly while I'm not exactly entertained by TTG, I quite literally ran out of steam to actually hate this series & now am at the point where I'm able to have it on in the background without any issue I actually really enjoy the art-style of the series & getting to see so other DC characters in the style so much that I kinda wish it focused on the comedic adventures of the DC universe as a whole rather than just the titans. The original Teen Titans will always have a place in my heart & memories but if we're gonna talk about getting pissed about a titans series getting cancelled years ago...CAN WE TALK BOUT HOW UNDERRATED TINY TITANS WAS?!

Honestly I was mad at first because TTG wasn’t those cute little shorts they made before the actual show came out.

I didn’t hate TTG as much as I used to when that show initially came out in the early 2010’s. But they’re far worse reboots out there: Velma, PPG 2016, Proud Family: Louder and Prouder, etc.

[@TheSkinnyLegend1997]

Yeah definitely on that PPG 2016 one. I remember as a child when that came out, literally the target demographic of that show and I hated it and didn't like it at all. When it came on I literally wanted to change the channel it was so cringe, terrible, awful, and just straight up annoying. That's in my opinion the worse cartoon reboot that I ever seen in my life personally, because I remember watching the original Powerpuff Girls as a kid still and I remember loving that cartoon, it was my favorite from my childhood, then when they got rid of it and created the new one which I thought was worse in every way... Just no. I hated it so much. There might be more reboots which are inaccurate to the original or might be objectively worser products, but that reboot of Powerpuff Girls was so bad, it genuinely made me unhappy, and making a child unhappy when you're job is to make them laugh and smile is disgraceful imo. I watched modern SpongeBob, Sanjay and Craig, Pig Goat Banana Cricket, Breadwinners, etc and even those shows managed to make me laugh and smile when watching them, even Sanjay and Craig and Breadwinners managed to do that when I found them weird and kinda gross sometimes. That's how much I hated Powerpuff Girls 2016. It was the worst show I probably ever watched at that point in my life.

Even after watching the 2003 show, my opinion hasn't changed. Yeah it's not as good as the original, but it really wasn't that bad. I still kinda cringe at myself for only hating the show because it was common in the cartoon community. I was younger and more impressionable then, but now I have my own opinion on the show. It's not the greatest of all time, but it does have some really good moments.

I've always disliked TTG. I still dislike TTG. I've never hated it though aside from that one marathon leading up to the premiere of OK.KO. That said, personally I do hate the precedent TTG set. The dumbing down of cartoons. It's been so long since I've even looked in CN's general direction that I can't name specific shows anymore but I do remember not long after TTG they made a similar show with Thunder Cats. I always thought it was the shifting focus that had everyone upset. The days of shows like Regular Show, Adventure Time and Steven Universe were behind us. There was no place on the network for those types of shows. Like you said, it would be downright stupid for CN to not milk TTG the way they did. It was cheap and low effort to produce, making them a ton of money. And to be clear, that's not a backhand insult. At least in those early days, the show was very effective at getting a lot out of very little. The episodes were short. The locations were mostly static. And the characters are rarely off model. Episodes could be pumped outt very easily which is why they were ordered in such large bulks compared to other shows.

[@skysiren4113]

I think the biggest problem with TTG currently is that it feels like it doesn't know what it wants to be. It doesn't feel like it's for kids because of how mean-spirited it gets and how much fetishy stuff there is. It doesn't feel like it's for adults because most of it jokes are low brow and childish. It doesn't feel like it's for fans of the original for how often the writers insult those who hate the show. Like at the start, I can understand wanting to bite back after being sent who knows how many threats and regardless of your opinion on TTG there is absolutely no excuse for grown adults to threaten someone for working on a show they don't like,but after so many years it's basically become 2 dogs barking at each other through a fence) Even as someone who doesn't like TTG personally, there are only so many times before you can hear someone go 'TeEn TiTaNs Go BaD' before it gets exhausting
