Well, doesn't sound bad actually. I am fine with a rocky start as long as it finds its own later on.

Already subbed to the service.

Readin OP makes it look bad, but as you go through the thread. Typical Netflix MCU...MIX reaction

Nice to see positive reviews. Plenty of room for them to improve going forward with already a season 2 announced. Fear's are going away now.

Yeah if you're going to make a review thread it's only fair that you include many reviews in the opening post. Not just the one big negative review to try and shape the narrative to be something you want it to be. Be fair and put the positive reviews as well.

Could a mod add them to the opening post so this is fair please.

Smh OP, smdh. I thought this looked bad from the first trailer, but these reviews are way better than I was expecting. Sometimes you get good surprises

I'll give it a shot, still don't like that Dick is ultra violent now though

I would definitely watch this....if I wasn't in the US....and if I didn't have to pay freaking money just to watch ONE show.

Any tricks to watching it from in the US with Netflix or anything else? Really annoying that it's not on Netflix here.

For a long time I assumed YJ was the lead. It's the one new thing that people clearly wanted. Lead with that and have lower profile things ready to drop behind it.
I think launching with something new would have been fine; just would have had to be a little higher profile than The Titans.

Tbh, I think it's weird they don't have anything featuring the Trinity on deck besides having Batman as a secondary character in "Harley Quinn." Launching with a new Wonder Woman or Superman project seems like it would have been a no-brainer.

When this service was coming together they might have still had that thing about keeping some characters/franchises off of TV and in movies only.

After the mismanagement of the movies, it's kind of hilarious that WB still tries to limit the exposure of certain characters and franchises, like that were doing them any good. The entire DC brand seems to be mismanaged overall.

I'll watch like 2 episodes to see if I fuck with it or not

I thought the idea of Gotham, and the marketing for it, was as terrible as this and it ended up being way more enjoyable than I expected

But then again that had a decent showrunner and cast on it as well tho. Fingers crossed I guess

So it's okay, that's good. Leaves plenty of room for improvement in future seasons.

I'm way more excited to see how Doom Patrol will turn out

Oh cool there's actually a bunch of good to ok reviews, great to know that even with the not-so-great trailers they managed to make a good show, totally retract my previous statements in the thread.

Will definitely give it a watch.

I'll give a watch, even though I'm disappointed that this Starfire dropped her speech quirk.

People will skew things to favor their argument... what positive reviews? Must be paid off or shills obviously lol

Never ever judge a show by their pilot, I don't know how many times I have to say this to people, and you know that is good advice for the most part

I'm genuinely surprised by the positive reviews but I'm not going to pretend like all suddenly watch this either. I still don't care about it, still doesn't look like something that I would be invested in. But I'm happy if those that were looking forward to this have a great product.

It does make me slightly more optimistic and excited for Doom Patrol however, and considering the cast of that looks fantastic the only remaining concern is how they'll manage to swing it on a television budget.

Robin is hot (with the mask, preferably) but I have less than zero interest in this. I love love love me some Robin/Nightwing/Dick (heh) but nothing about this looks.... good.

Pretty shocked this isn't a total disaster. I won't subscribe now, but maybe someday I will.

Reviews are other people's opinions, and can be bought.
Watch it yourself and try to give it a shot beyond some trailers.

Somebody enlighten me how a bloodthirsty starfire is "nailing her".

Is she supposed to be some sort of bloodlust psycopath in the comics?

Sometimes. Personality wise she looks pretty close to some incarnations so far.

The issue is that godawful wig and coat.

Once they handle that shit, she might be good.

I mean, while DC tv shows aren't all the best. I don't think there is anything out right horrible. I'm hoping it clicks with me like Black Lightning did.

At least not out the door. Some of them ramp in to being pretty bad though. Supergirl managing it before its first season was done.

Okay, seeing these more positive reviews has me interested. I'll give it a shot for a couple of episodes to see if it ends up grabbing me or not.

Glad to see the OP updated.

Edit: Dafuq, watching an interview with the cast, the actor playing Dick is Aussie?! I knew the actress playing Raven was but Dick came as a surprise for some reason.
