Never
Fright Crime On An Empty Stomach!
Getting
kids familiar with second tier characters in the DC Universe comes
easy with Teen Titans Go! -
a cartoon similar to Dexter's Laboratory only with
bright flashy colors that may give an older viewer a stroke. This
two-disc DVD set comes packed with 26 episodes from the series'
Second Season that is full of humor and crime fighting but is
light on the extras.
The
show features such characters as Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, Raven, and
Beast Boy as the lead protagonists in the latest of many line ups of
the team since the 1960s. The show's premise is that the Teen
Titans, when not saving the world and when living together as
teenagers without adult supervision. The Teen Titans must deal with
situations such as teenage pranks, reaching a whole new level, having
to retake a driver's test after wrecking the Batmobile, taking part
in dodgeball tournaments, fighting each other, and other antics.
Some are calling this a spoof of the show and franchise versus the
original versions, which has some degree of validity.
Episodes
include Mr.
Butt, Man Person, Pirates, Money Grandma, I See You, Brian, Nature,
Salty Codgers, Knowledge, Slumber Party, Love Monsters, Baby Hands,
and Caramel Apples
on Disc One.
Disc
Two features Sandwich Thief, Friendship, Vegetables, The Mask,
Serious Business, Halloween, Boys Vs Girls, Body Adventure, Road
Trip, Thanksgiving, The Best Robin, Mouth Hole,
and Hot Garbage.
Picture
and sound presentation on the disc are for a high standard for DVD
with a standard definition transfer in 16 X 9/1.78 X 1 framing and a
lossy Dolby Digital 5.1 track. Total run time is 286 minutes in all
for both discs. No extras.
All
in all, I would recommend this only to kids and not hardcore more
adult DC fans.
