    I really loved the (relatively) dark feel of the original Teen Titans show. The new one is good, but a completely different show than the one I love

      Check out Young Justice if you haven’t. Significantly more mature than the original Teen Titans, and an overall great show.

      The whole Timmverse lineage had this lovely radio-drama tone. It was all PG at worst, but the characters took it seriously. Compare Michael Caine in that Muppets adaptation of A Christmas Carol: he played it completely straight even though he was co-starring with felt.

      The goofy self-aware responses to all that are at least as jarring as the tryhard grimdark responses to it. Better - but still odd. At least they’re not trying to out-edge the show that did Heart Of Ice in its first season and dropped Batgirl onto the hood of Jim Gordon’s car.
