Want some "Teen Titans"? You got it! Check out this press release from Cartoon Network:
Fighting for truth, justice and the last slice of pizza, the D.C. Comics Teen Titans are five super heroes who are living proof that you’re never too young to save the planet. Twenty-nine hand-selected episodes of the hit animated series will air uninterrupted over 12 hours on the commercial-free Boomerang network, Monday, May 25, starting at 12 noon and culminating at 12 a.m. (ET). Teen Titans originally premiered on Cartoon Network in 2003 to great viewer and critical acclaim, making the series an instant classic for younger generations and a TV favorite for comic book fans of all ages.
Based on the long-running DC Comics series, Teen Titans features five teenage superheroes who each exhibit special powers. The team is led by Robin, the acrobatic and daring group leader with a stocked utility belt and no fear. Beast Boy, small in stature and quick with a joke, can shift into the form of any animal, from a tiger to a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Starfire is new to Earth and naïve to its ways, but when it is time for a throw-down, she fights as hard as any of the others. The spooky, deadpan Raven can control inanimate objects with her powerful mental abilities. Hulking Cyborg is half-man, half-machine and the most powerful member of the team.
But Teen Titans is not all about superpowers and bad guys. Like most teens, they love hanging out with their friends, playing video games and going to parties. And also like most adolescents, they each are trying to find their place in the world and deal with their growing pains as best as they can.
“A Teen Titans marathon is the perfect way to ring in the summer,” Said Stacy Isenhower, senior vice president of programming and scheduling for Boomerang and Cartoon Network. “Teen Titans shows us that we can be capable of great things while still having a little fun.”
Highlights of the marathon include:
· 12 p.m. (ET): “How Long is Forever?” – A super-thief from the future called WARP travels back in time to steal a priceless antique. But when the Teen Titans show up to stop him, the villain tries to escape.
· 2:05 p.m. (ET): “Date with Destiny” - A creepy criminal known as KILLER MOTH threatens to destroy the city with a flying army of MUTANT MOTHS unless Teen Titan ROBIN agrees to take KILLER MOTH’s spoiled-rotten teenage daughter KITTEN to her junior prom!
· 3:45 p.m. (ET): “Betrayal” - After a few weeks as a Teen Titan, TERRA has everything she ever wanted: a nice home, good friends, and even a little romance with BEAST BOY. Everything seems perfect...but is it?
· 4:35 p.m. (ET): “Aftershock: Part One” – A long-lost friend of the Teen Titans returns with a vengeance , and SLADE orders OVERLOAD, CINDERBLOCK, and PLASMUS to launch a series of sinister strikes all over the city. Can our heroes stop three monsters, SLADE, and their newest enemy?

Man did this series sucked!!! I saw the first 5 minutes of the first episode and could not take it anymore. It was just such a downer compared to JL/JLU which was being played at that time.

Dear God WHY ?!?!?!?! Why can't this Pokemon-rippoff-crap-pile just GO AWAY ???
The reason why there are no other Titans projects in the works anymore!!!
If you love The Teen Titans ...SKIP IT!!

See, this is why you're "Steve the Dude" and not "Steve the Genius".
Teen Titans was aimed primarily at kids, and it was a decent show in its own right. I didn't like it at first, but I gained a lot of respect for it towards the end.

It's childish crap !

I had no idea there actually some hate for this show, I freaking loved it. JLU was aimed at an older audience, so comparing the two is pointless.
Plus, the theme song is still oh-so-catchy ;)

Teen TItans was hard to watch. It was definitely aimed at the 8 to 12 crowd.
I'd much rather see a JLU marathon. JLU was, and more than likely will be, the best thing CN ever aired. It's on every night on Boomerang but not everyone gets that.

I'll know when to not watch Cartoon Network then...Thanks!!!

Because there's not enough garbage on tv, ladies and gents!

wayne brady is not a teen. he shouldn't play a teen titan
Posted by: Methos on May 19, 2009 at 16:55:40
The only thing I remember from this show was how Hot Raven was.
Posted by: FrankCastleisMyHero on May 19, 2009 at 17:09:50
You know it's very misleading to title the article and say it's airing on CN when in actuality, it's airing on Boomerang
I'm bitter about this because I don't have Boomerang.
What the hell ever happened to The Judas Contract DTV animated movie they were working on?
Posted by: eggmcmaggot on May 19, 2009 at 17:50:58
I DONT HAVE BOOMERANG! it was a good show though.
Posted by: Cranky Old Vart on May 19, 2009 at 17:52:59
Lousy anime... Oh well, some people like it I guess.
Posted by: Dragonzord on May 19, 2009 at 17:55:42
All, I'm going to say is teen titans wasn't bad, but it wasn't great.
For those of you who are so adamant in your position of loathing, let me ask you this:
Would you rather watch the teen titans, or two inbred siblings bump fists where one of them could only turn into a bucket of water?
Posted by: John on May 19, 2009 at 18:07:13
YES!!!
I hope they have all the TARA episodes, I luv her.
Posted by: Charlie Conway on May 19, 2009 at 18:51:40
Why. I hated this cartoon. They need a good Teen Titans cartoon that's not anime.
Posted by: Hopefully on May 19, 2009 at 21:15:01
hopefully if enough people tune in it will get the point across that the titans have a large enough fan base to get them to start working on the judas contract dvd and maybe even getting them to work on a movie for theaters

I dont have Boomerang....DAMN YOU CABLEVISION
Posted by: underworldman on May 19, 2009 at 22:16:32
TT is a pretty good show(sometimes),but I agree that JLU was even better.A Hell of a lot better.JLU is probably one of the best cartoons showed on CN fr a while now.

Come again? Learn to use some grammar!

teen titans isn't bad. it's alright.
it was spontaneous, stupid, and fun. as it should be...that's why it's TEEN titans. had they used tim drake as robin though, that would have been a different story. even though tim's a teen as well, he acts like he's batman. lol. i'd love to see a teen titans animated series with tim leading. i REALLY hope tim shows up in brave and the bold; i know **** is.
