I'm going to imagine probably because it's popular and enjoyed?
It's shit.  A total joke.

Like they had one episode where the teen titans ate so much food their bellies got super big and Cyborg and Beast-boy's bellies became sentient and took over their bodies, eating all the food so they could grow bigger.

I'm sorry but if that's popular enough to get a movie, America is one fucked up country.

Keep in mind that Teen Titans GO! is a children's show, so you may not be the target audience.

I watchalot of kids shows.  I have a 3 year old.
Target audience or not, it's shit.  It's random, unexplained hijinks for no reason than to make fart jokes.  It's crass, low brow humor with no characters keeping any consistency.  Even SpongeBob is a better show.  Hell, Ren & Stimpy was better, and that made almost no sense.  But at least it was segmented without pretending to have consistency between segments.

I can't believe the first cartoon was canceled in favor of that garbage.

It is not a show for a 3 yr old, it is for a 6-8 year old.  Wait until fart jokes are the epitome of humor, it's a thing that kids go through and I highly recommend you embrace it.

I am aware.
I/we watch shows that are not just for 3 yr olds.  We both watch My Little Pony.  (Shush)

Look, my issue isnt that the fart jokes are bad cause fart jokes.  My issue is that they take the Teen Titans and turn them into a bunch of bumbling idiots dealing with stupid problems with no writing worth a damn.  Like they have a random word generator to determine a plot:

"Belly... fat... living"
"Puppet... wizard... souls...."

It just ... its bad.  Its really bad writing.

Don't you ever like to just turn your brain off and enjoy a little silliness once in a while for its own sake, Dave? I enjoy Teen Titans GO! pretty much because it's so silly and random. You're entitled to your opinion that it's poorly written but that's really all it is. Just because it's your opinion doesn't make it right.

And making statements like "Even SpongeBob's a better show!" doesn't really suggest you're as in tune with kids' tastes as you seem to think you are. Just saying.

I turn my brain off in other ways.
And yes, it is my opinion and its strong.  Maybe because I liked the other cartoon.  Or because its just one of those things that pushes my buttons.


Either way, we can leave it at that: personal taste.

Imagine being a grown man and getting this upset about children's cartoons.

P.S.: FromSoftware should definitely make Belly Fat Living Puppet Wizard Souls.

Imagine being a father and getting this upset at what your children and their friends watch, knowing it will shape and influence their minds for the next few years, if not longer.

You can't control what they watch at their friends' houses, but you can control what they watch at home. I don't want to tell anyone how to raise their kids, but it seems like there's a pretty obvious solution if you don't approve of what they're watching on your TV.

I hated the first Titans show. The faux-anime style and music really irritated me. In other news, the trailer for Venom has come out, and it looks hilariously awful:



Tom Hardy embracing his inner Cage is the only thing that promises to be entertaining here. I am here for his latest ridiculous voice, slovenly appearance, and goofy faces.

That looks like it's going to be complete trash.
