DC's Superhero High



This reminds me of the girl shows I watched in the 90s, cheeky cheesy innocence is better than the usual murky malarky.

Think I'll pass.

Hope it does good though.

It looks like a little girls show.

It looks like it's taking a page out of the "Friendship is Magic" book. I approve.

it's pretty crappy. I mean, there isn't even a story, EAH is able to do an interesting story, I would at least think this show would have one. Amanda waller is the principal for crying out loud.

pretty much, Mattel Doll 3 minute power ranking

Barbie's life in the dream House > Ever After High > Monster High > DC Superhero Girls

Barbie's life just barely beats out Ever After just because of how funny the meta is

Objectively speaking, it just looks like another goofy kids' show...

But the character designs...just...too...cute...can't look away--and is that Josh Keaton as the Flash?

Kind of reminds me of Totally Spies and MLP.

Lauren Faust's Super Best Friends Forever shorts should've been turned into a series instead of this. Pass.

I'd forgotten about those.

There's not much chance of them ending up on home video, is there?

Probably not, no. But I do believe they're all available on youtube.

I've been watching the shorts they put online for a while. So far it's mostly been about Wonder Woman and her oddly budding friendship with Harley Quinn. But man FINALLY Supergirl shows up and of course with her they have to make an hour long special.

There's also 2 GN's coming out as well as all the other merch.

And yes that's Josh Keaton as Barry. He also voices Hal Jordan.

The Kents are voiced by Dean Cain and Helen Slater.

This school tho is bloody insane. It's got Crazy Quilt as the costume design teacher, Lucius Fox teaches another class, Red Tornado teaches a flight class, Gorilla Grodd is the Vice Principal, Amanda Waller is the Dean/Principal, Barbara Gordon (who is voiced by Mae Whitman) is basically a student aid and is there to help people out.

What's next, Superhero babies?

They'll make a show like Tiny Tunes, a Pup named Scooby Doo, or Muppet babies where they'll put toddler versions of the Justice League in a pre-school saving the day.

How the mighty have fallen.

Maybe you shouldn't watch shows aimed towards young girls.
Also, "principle".

Looks a little cringe worthy but the art style is cute.

It would be cool if they compiled all the DC shorts for a DVD/Blu Ray.

a good show is a good show, doesn't what the demographic is. I mean, I could be a *ick and try to tell other people what they can or cannot watch and judge them for it.

Hell, I would like to see TMNT try to pull off a prison baby
