Collider recently published an article showing several new clips from the upcoming DC Animated Series and they claimed the series seems much more like Teen Titans Go rather than the original Justice League Unlimited. And I am here to say that is a load of bullcrap. Yes this series looks more to be a quick fun adventure series (After all, each episode will only be 11 mins) but there's a difference between being a superhero show with a sense of humour, and being TTG. People forget that the original JL series also had a sense of humour, hell, there's an episode where Wonder Woman gets turned into a pig and the only way for Batman to save her is to sing karaoke...I'm not even exaggerating!
TTG however is nothing but an ADHD sugar rush, no rhyme or reason to the jokes, just "lOL, rAnDom=FuNNy!". There's nothing wrong with the series having a sense of humour, because if you pay attention to these clips, it's only the characters that already have a sense of humour, Joker, Flash, Cyborg, Toyman, they're the ones making jokes; Batman's still his super serious self. Superman & Wonder Woman don't get enough to say to judge their personalities, but I'm just going to hope they got em right. Hell if anything, with the quick animation, pacing and tone, this looks a lot more like the original Teen Titans series rather than Teen Titans Go, and that ain't a bad thing.
