Now who's fault is it?

Just to clarify, you do also agree that the gender pay gap is due to women's lifestyle choices, and is thus their own fault too, right?

NGL, funniest shit I've ever seen.

I loved it, but my love for it is dwindling ever since Kurk started getting a boner for Raven.

Trust me, I tried watching it a few years ago to see if it lives up to the hype and nostalgia. It doesn't. It isn't remotely on the level of modern shows.

JLU kicks the shit out of it quality wise too.

JLU is prolly the best animated superhero show out there, tbh.

Kurk, when you hang yourself live on stream, can you make sure you leave a link in the Battle Bar first?

The show wasn't even that good ffs.
The messages in that show, the camaraderie shared among the titans, the character development, the appropriate balance of dark and humorous themes, has brought tears to my eyes at age 19—and as a self-admitted Machiavellian nevertheless. I enjoyed watching it as a kid, but having rewatched it now that I can fully understand analyze everything, I realize how much of a gem it is.

As for how you personally don't like the show, I can't comment without more explanation.

Well, duh.

I never liked it as a kid. I will try to rewatch it at some point.

Its mediocre. The only thing particularly notable about it was Ron Perlman's impeccable voice acting and Raven's absurdly sexual outfit.

TT GO is better tbh.

Well that answers it pretty clearly. TT Go and the original are two completely different shows. The former is a goofy slap-comedy with from what I can tell zero long-term plot development. It mocks the original and goes into themes that makes me question how the hell it's considered a kids' show.

You simply can't compare the two. TT Go is closer to Chowder and The Amazing World of Gumball than it is to the original TT lol.

I only mentioned it to mess with you, lol.

GO is pretty good though. I laughed pretty hard at it when I was still keeping up with it.

I occasionally watch clips of it on Youtube. I enjoyed the scene where Control Freak shows them their original versions and they agree that it was far superior to what they are now.

I also liked the scenes of Raven's emoticlones and even her being a brony.

It requires a completely different mindset for me to watch it than the original.

So I will ask again, what makes you think the original was mediocre? If it was because you were disappointed after coming from TT Go, I understand, but if not that why?

The best episodes are the ones where they piss all over the butthurt fanboys of the original.

No, I watched it before I watched TT GO. I thought it was simply not that great. The first few episodes sucked so I looked up a list of the best episodes and watched them and they were merely ok. The characters and plots aren't anything special, the comedy is bad and the action is mediocre.

Yeah, the episode where they defeat Slade in a cutscene comes to mind.

You only consider the Raven-Trigon episodes mediocre?

The comedy is well placed and often discrete IMO. I remember when they dropped subtle SW references (referring to Jek Porkins).

I mean c'mon Raven's deadpan sarcasm? You can't disagree that it was great.

It's anime so I don't watch it for action; even so Slade and Robin's fight scenes were pretty memorable.

I will say that the plots were always extremely predictable and cliche, but I watch for character development.

Excuse me? Did I read that correctly? Please clarify what you meant to say before I go completely livid on your ass.

No one in a 3,959 mile radius likes Raven.

So just to be 100%, crystal clear, did you just say Raven is a "degenerate"?

She looks like the spawn of Vision w/ the mind stone and a grey toaster.

Be glad that I do not know who those characters are.
