For Your Thoughts, I Will Pay Six Grubfars

by sj

So, I know I don’t really post about tv…ever, but I saw this last night and now I’m ridiculously excited.

(If you’re too lazy to click the link, I’ll post the video at the end)

We are huge fans of the Teen Titans in this house.  HUGE!  I made a Red-X costume for my oldest for Hallowe’en a few years ago, and he wore it again last year, with a few alterations.

"Kid, you take life way too seriously."

 

We are beyond thrilled that the Titans are coming back to television, even if it is only in the form of shorts on DC Nation.  Who cares?  More Titans!  Look how cute chibi Raven and chibi Starfire are!  (exclaim!)

 

 

Now, if I could only convince Cartoon Network to bring back Megas XLR and Samurai Jack.

  1. I have never watched ANY of the cartoons listed. Can I live a fulfilling life?

  2. Never heard of that one.

    I like the theme change though, it’s easier to read now.

    • Thanks! I couldn’t find anything I liked well enough that worked with my banner so I spent a lot of time customizing last night with hexadecimal codes and whatnot. Tedious, but I’m pleased with the results. :)

  3. Samurai Jack, yeeeeeeeeess! So much fun.

    Never watched Teen Titans, but it looks adorable.

    • Samurai Jack is one of my favourite cartoons of all time. Not just because we have the same initials, either. :)

      If you can find episodes of Teen Titans to watch online (or the DVDs for cheap), you totally should.

  4. I really liked the Teen Titans comic, although a T-shaped headquarters always seemed problematic to me.

    • How am I just now seeing this comment, B-Man? Let me tell you – Titans Tower is one of the hardest to find, most sought after toys in the Titans arena. I just checked, and the cheapest one can find it on ebay currently is ONE HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS. Oh, and I’ve read reviews that it tips over if you attempt to play with it, so…

  5. Haha Red X! Nice job on the costume! He was such a sweet character. I remember it was a total surprise finding out that Robin was X. Then he lost his costume…I’ve always wondered who it was that wore it since then…Oh well, and Samurai Jack! That was definitely one of my all time favorites!! I just recently managed to get the entire series, so I’ll be watching through that once again here pretty soon :)

    • Gah, we kept HOPING they would bring it back just to solve the Red X mystery! Oldest Boy Child was very disappointed the first time he wore this costume because no one recognized him. Last year was better because a few different kids ran up to him and told him they thought it was pretty sweet. The mask was the hardest part, btw – but now I know how to do it if I have to again.

      Samurai Jack will always be one of my favourites. The animation is absolutely gorgeous and the story lines were far superior to most other cartoons that are/were on.

      • Oh man that would have been the best if they went into the mystery a bit more!! How do people not know who Red X is?? Haha, but at least a few were able to recognize him :) Hopefully there will be more this next Halloween, should he choose to don the epic costume once more.

        Oh and Samurai Jack. There were those episodes that were really moving…even just for a cartoon. And it’s definitely better than most of the cartoons on CN nowadays. I feel like the creators were on LSD or some sort of hallucinogens when they came up with they show on tv now…:(
