Summary: Strong Finish to a Great Series Teen Titans has always been a strong series. This fifth and final season is a particular favorite of mine in that it features the Doom Patrol and the Brotherhood of Evil (BoE is in a number of episodes throughout the season). Now, I was not a Doom Patrol fan prior. In fact, I've never even read a Doom Patrol comic. Regardless, I simply love the characterizations of the team in the show, especially Negative Man's deadpan delivery of his lines, as is so befitting his name. Likewise, Brain having the Hawking'esque voice is beyond perfect. Here we have a brilliant and evil mind with no body to speak of that commands immeasurable power. I love the taunting coming from Brain sounding like a late 80's computer attempting to create speech. It has a menace to it that one wouldn't expect. With the Brotherhood of Evil, and the Doom Patrol playing such a large roll in this season, the feel of the overall story arc feels a lot more Silver Age, DC Comics than the previous seasons, which for me is a good thing. While the Slade arcs are excellent, there is something I like about two super teams duking it out, 60's style. There's a grandness to that just feels, I don't know . . . heroic in that romantic, adventure movie kind of way. There are some other really great episodes as well. In particular, I enjoyed "Go!," a prequel episode that details not only how Starfire came to Earth, but also how the Titans originally formed their team. It's great. DC/Marvel has had an incredible run of quality animated hero shows, going all the way back to "Batman: the Animated Series" and this season of Teen Titans delivers as well. If your looking at a review for season five, I'm going to presume you've seen the show and like it, so I am probably preaching to the choir. It's great. You know it. What else is there to know? BTW, why in the world doesn't every DVD box set/series in universe simply list the frickin' episodes in the description? It always falls to a reviewer to actually tell prospective buyers what the heck they are considering buying. Does this strike anyone else as a bit stupid? To that end, here's a list of episodes contained within the series: 1. Homecoming Pt 1 (Intro the Doom Patrol and the Brotherhood of Evil) 2. Homecoming Pt 2 3. Trust 4. For Real 5. Snowblind 6. Kole 7. Hide and Seek 8. Lightspeed 9. Revved Up (This one seemed REALLY odd and jarringly outside the Titans Universe, but whatever) 10. Go! 11. Calling All Titans 12. Titans Together 13. Things Change Summary: A Great Finale For An Excellent Show This is the final season of the hit "Teen Titans" show and it certainly doesn't downgrade in quality, despite what some say. On the contrary, it's one of the best seasons in my opinion. The final season's episodes mostly focus on a single threat, the Brotherhood of Evil and their aim to eliminate all Titans globally. For once episodes not only follow the main Titans but also feature other Titans as well. It's a nice change once in awhile to follow other Titan's adventures besides the main group just for new perspectives offered by other heroes. If you liked the previous seasons of Teen Titans, then definitely pick this up. You won't be disappointed, as it's on par with the other seasons. Summary: It has jumped the shark, but is still worth it for fans After being dominated by awesome villians like Slade, Brother Blood, and Trigon in the previous seasons, the final season of Teen Titans is finally showing its age and looking a bit weary. The recurring villians here are a passionless robotic skull called The Brain (not to be confused with the much more entertaining megalomaniac lab mouse featured on Animaniacs and Pinky and the Brain) and a talking gorilla named Monsieur Mallah (not to be confused with the much more entertaining Grodd on Justice League). One of the plusses of Season 5 is that we finally get to see a lot of the lesser known Teen Titans that were featured in the original comics, including Jericho, Argent, and Kole. We also get treated to the episode "Go!" which depicts how the original five Titans came together as a team (Starfire in particular is quite different in the beginning; very aggressive and antisocial which is definitely not how she is later). However, the influx of hordes of new characters make things rather chaotic, especially in the two part climax where The Brain and Monsieur Mallah meet their end. Also beware of the very last and downbeat episode "Things Change," which brings back a long lost character who has amnesia and never quite recovers from it. |
