The last good Titans season (and the intended last) is one of the darkest, most risky series I've seen attempted, same with The Batman.

For me, Titans ended at season 2, since Kid's WB thought it was a brilliant idea NOT to rerun that show anymore. I especially love that they came out with Crap Daytime WB too.

But season 4 Batman was a dramtic improvement over the series entirely. The first couple of seasons were OK, season 3 with batgirl was BRU- TAL, but they totally pulled their Bat Asses out of the fire with this one.

I actually liked season 5 and disliked season 4. But to each his or her own I guess.

Yeah, why IS it you like all the s*itty seasons that play it safe rather than really take a risk?

Sheesh, audiences like this, no wonder we get Ying Yang Yo...

Season five was crap. A blatant rehash/toned-down version of JLU's "Legion of Doom" arc that was running concurrently, and some ridiculous psudo-anime "Bebop" ending that just felt like half-assed fanfiction.

The 3rd and 2nd to last episodes I recall enjoying. They felt very epic and grand and frankly should have been the real finale of the show. On the whole though, there were a lot of weak episodes in season 5.

Yeah, because we all know the audience tells the networks to keep making more bad shows.

Now the site has another news item for both of these DVDs -- the cover-art for them.

Season 5 was rather unsatisfying, but we did get a handful of good episodes out of it which is why I'm glad it happened.

I think what disappointed me was that season 5 probably should've been Starfire's season, since every other member of the team got their own season-long storyarcs aside from her. Because of this, she remains the weakest character from the whol series. At the very least, they could've explored her and Blackfire' relationship a bit more.

I also turn my nose up at the fact that they didn't feel the need to reveal Red X's identity, despite the fact they had an extra season and did an episode featuring him...gah.

And yeah, the "epilogue" episode was like bad "look at how bittersweet our ending is!" fanfiction I wouldn't watch twice.

Still, we got to see a lot of Titans animated that we likely never would have had they not nipped the JLU concept, and the Doom Patrol arc was actually pretty cool. Loved the way they did the Brain (talks like Steven Hawking, awesome).

It was the worst season of the series, but I'm glad we got it just for the few outstanding moments it gave us.
