Titans - Batman VS Robin

So I've been watching this...went in without huge expectations.

For those that don't watch, or the TLDR crowd, take a look at this.




It's not bad.
I think the tone of the original trailer was maybe a mistake, as though they're making the show out to be way more "edgy" than it actually is.
It's not one-liner and joke a minute.

The storyline is...well a bit simplistic but not horrible.
As a comic fan I'm a little bit annoyed at some of the changes of characters and I think Starfire looks horrible...beast boy is a bit superfluous it seems...and Raven is kind've boring.
Other than those things, and that it seems more like a mashup of both TITANS and TEEN TITANS...I've found it somewhat watchable.
Dark and a little too angsty...but close enough.

I mean to be honest, aside from some of the netflix GOLD that was daredevil (now cancelled. Thanks Disney. I'm sure everyone will want your service now)
I'd say it's up there with the other DC shows...probably better than supergirl by a mile...and compared to some of Marvels other, smaller 2018 TV offerings, it's amazing.

Anyways, what I'm saying is - have a look if the oppertunity arises.
It seems like it's going down quite an interesting path here too...looking forward to the weirdly numbered season finale. I'm guessing some headfucking might be in play here, but still...should be a ride.
