After five glorious seasons of Teen Titans, our heart were ripped out of our chests, thrown on the ground and stomped on. Teen Titans was cancelled. They left us with like one thousand unanswered questioned. Fans everywhere were pissed and broken hearted. Then about seven or eight years ago an internet revolt broke out. #saveseasonsix was everywhere! Fans started petitions. Fans wrote to Cartoon Network. They wrote to the voice actors. They started facebook accounts, and tumblr accounts, and like a million instagram accounts. Then two years ago, we got the announcement. Teen Titans was being rebooted!
And fans quickly went from excited to enraged as it was revealed that the reboot would be a parody. Teen Titans Go! was born. It is hilarious and it has maybe one serious plot line in every twenty episodes. It is not season six. It does not answer any of our questions. It makes fun of the characters. It makes fun of the original show.
And I LOVE it.
Most fans of the original Teen Titans hate it, but I think it is hilarious. There are so many subtle jokes and references that only the true fans will understand and yet its great for kids too. I truly believe that if Cartoon Network had tried to make season six now, they would have butchered it and it would be worse than just not having the answers.
