Is there a good rundown of the "skippable" episodes of the original show? I somehow missed the boat on it entirely despite being a kid at exactly the right time, though I heard a decent amount about it, and watching TTG (and knowing off the top of my head that it's pretty much considered part of the DCAU, even if it's not canon with B:TAS or Beyond) has gotten me interested. At the same time, I've heard somewhere that you can pretty much divide the show evenly into good "serious" episodes and hot garbage "funny" ones.

Okay so I just finished Legs and I'm pretty sure that the way Beast Boy and Raven play off each other is one of the best things about this show. Seriously they're adorable. e: A little further in my binge and I think I can finally articulate what makes this work so well. Their mutual crush is only ever put in the limelight, like, once out of thirty something episodes I've watched so far, and only for the purpose of a joke about BB being a dumbass. Otherwise, it's pretty much limited to minor actions and little facial expressions and not really treated like a big deal, which makes it feel really natural and sweet compared to... honestly, most TV relationships in general (COUGH loving COUGH FLASH COUGH COUGH COUGHITY COUGH).

The funniest part is? Everything the pic maker said about the old show's characterization still applies to the new show. The new show just bolts things on to the old characterization, rather than remaking characters outright, which is part of why it owns so much.

They're things the characters all still do. Robin is still a karate badass, he's just also kind of a lovesick doofus with an amoral streak on top of that. Raven is still half demon, she's just the best character now instead of being boring. Cyborg still does mechanic poo poo and works on the car and etc, but he also likes pie and is bros with Beast Boy. Beast Boy and Starfire are... basically the same, except BB is a little dumber and they make stoner jokes about him. It's completely ridiculous. It's like he's never watched the drat show.

Yeah, frankly I find it a lot funnier when Robin beats things up too much or in a silly manner than when he doesn't do it enough.

drrockso20 posted:not to mention feeling a little petty and weird(kinda like how Spielburg's cartoons in the 90's kept making fun of their internet fandoms) You uh... you know the story behind that, right? Because it feels a lot less petty and gets a lot funnier when you do. e: just in case this isn't internet legend yet

I dunno I see taking swipes at a guy who creeped one of the VAs out of public society as being, if not noble, then at least justifiable and also really drat funny

My Q-Face posted:Tried to share this show with my girlfriend, she loves Beavis and Butthead, American Dad, Archer, thought she'd enjoy this too. First episode that was on had Cyborg launching dogs at the other Titans. She was mauled by a dog once and didn't appreciate that, so I won't be watching this show now ... ...do you need your girlfriend to approve things you watch?  God of Evil Cows posted:Beast Boy = Frank (disgusting trolls who don't care what other people think about them) This is a bit tenuous, I'd say. BB isn't nearly as disgusting as Frank and he certainly cares what Raven thinks of him, at the very least.
