Teen Titans The Night Begins to Shine

Teen Titans Go! is an American animated television series developed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic for Cartoon Network. It premiered on April 23, 2013, and is based on DC Comics' fictional superhero team the Teen Titans. The series was announced following the popularity of DC Nation's New Teen Titans shorts.^[2] The production companies of the series are DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Animation, with the animation outsourced to Canada at Copernicus Studios and Bardel Entertainment.^[3]

Sporting a different animation style, Teen Titans Go! serves as a comedic standalone spin-off with little to no continuity to the original Teen Titans series (although some references are included as comedic fan service) or any other media in the DC Comics franchise. Many DC characters make cameo appearances and are referenced in the background. The original principal voice cast returns to reprise their respective roles. This series explores what the Titans do when they are hanging out around the tower.

A feature film, Teen Titans Go! To the Movies, was released in theaters on July 27, 2018.

In 2021, Cartoon Network announced a spin-off series based after the Night Begins to Shine episodes.^[4]

Plot

Teen Titans Go! is an animated series that follows the adventures of the young Titans: Beast Boy, Robin, Cyborg, Raven, and Starfire. They reside in Jump City when they are not saving the world while living together as teenagers without adults who disrupt the young Titans. Unlike most of the other superhero series, the situations are comic, crazy and parodic—for example, juvenile jokes that reach new heights of danger, obtaining a license to drive after destroying the Batmobile or washing the suits after staining them when fighting their enemies. The show regularly features characters who have appeared in the original series, albeit with reduced roles and/or exaggerated personalities. It also features greater attachment to the DC Universe at large, with more references to other characters including those in the Justice League, plus a few appearances by Batman and Commissioner Gordon in lighthearted moments.

The show expresses in-jokes regarding the whole of DC's library, many of them in blink-and-you'll-miss-it moments, as well as numerous jokes at the expense of the show itself.

However, the season only received an audience approval rating of 40%.^[10] Teen Titans Go! has received a rating of 5.6/10 on online database IMDb.^[11]

On June 11, 2013, Cartoon Network renewed Teen Titans Go! for a second season, citing successful ratings.^[14] According to Hope King, a tech reporter for CNNMoney,^[15] Teen Titans Go! was one out of three of the most viewed television shows (The other two being Shades of Blue and Game of Thrones) and other media to contribute to a record setting 1.3 million simultaneous Xfinity On-Demand viewings during the January 2016 United States blizzard.^[16]
