Prevost's complaint about a lot of Enter's criticism doesn't really make sense is one that I also agree with. Complaining about how Teen Titans Go has bad morals when the morals presented are intended to be a joke doesn't make any sense.

Yes, he draws them out too long - and this is coming from a subscriber of his. But then you get those reviews that need that airtime: his Family Guy stuff in particular. And that show have had episodes presenting things without any sense of humor nor irony at all - such as intervening for a domestic abuse victim, not the perpetrator, thereby sending the wrong message in a very sensitive topic.

And yea, Teen Titans Go might be intended as a joke, but when the stuff is seemingly not double-checked (even as a simplistic show) the end results can look really, really bad. The hatedom arose partly because of unfortunate implications (characters being jerks just 'cause, for example) that were never addressed by the show, after all. There is no shame in a show being simplistic, but there is when not double-checking, for example.

As for the FF song? Well, guilty pleasure of mine. So while I can see why some wouldn't like it, or even hate it, the instrumentals are at the very least decent.

Even if that was the intention of the writers, the presentation of satire within the show isn't thought out well. At all. I may not be good with humor myself but I know satire when I see it. Satire is literally my favorite type of humor. Teen Titans Go is not satire. It doesn't satirize the themes it brings up, it flat-out uses the same tired morals you've heard in all those other shows (see Boys VS Girls) all while using horrid "comedy" and animation that makes those horrible Flash-animated cartoons from the early 2000s look like classic examples of modern art by comparison.

And if you're still not convinced, the writers on Teen Titans Go are the same as the ones on Breadwinners. You can't seriously tell me they would be smart enough writers to come up with anything like you claim TTG to be.

So where's the countdown of the best?

They should make one with the best scores next. I'm sure the '87 series would make it somewhere.

I can almost guarantee it would. It's the best Turtles theme song to me.

I don't think the Fast Forward theme is that bad at all. There are some cringe-worthy moments in it sure, but I really do not think it deserves so much hate. I watched the whole list and I can say that every single opening was worse than Fast Forward's opening.

I prefer the FF theme song to the dreadful music from Back to the Sewer.

FF's theme makes me cringe but BTTS has a pretty sweet theme.

But the real winner all-around would have to be pretty much any of the themes used in the Japanese dub of 2k3 lmao they did a much better job with opening music than the US did.

I loved it. :/

I like the FF theme song, it may be the best 2k3 theme, that isn't saying much since the rest are not that good but FF is charming.

I don't care what anyone says

I do not mid the FF tune at all, but yeah, the BttS theme is soooo good.
Still can't see how FF gets voted as a bad tune though.

I'm amazed Cubed isn't here defending Fast Forward.

I personally don't mind it, or its theme. But I can understand why others wouldn't. It's definitely more "kid-friendly".
