Dick Grayson

That epic batman character, they're respecting the idea that the batman played by Christian Bale is irreplaceable, so they kept him almost offscreen, so professional. The rest was so good, the acting is better than ever, the depth was exceptional and this is the ultimate episode of 'Titans'

I approached "Titans" with a bit of trepidation, I was concerned that television superhero fatigue might settle in. However, by the end of the run I was pleasantly surprised by a series I thoroughly enjoyed.

Dick Grayson ( Brenton Thwaites ) has left Robin (and Batman) behind and is working as a Detective, when he meets Rachel (Teagan Croft) a young, recently orphaned girl, whose dark powers may stem from her mysterious past. When the pair are forced to go on the run, they meet Kori (Anna Diop) a woman whose memory has been lost and can generate fire from her hands and Gar (Ryan Potter) who has his own secret powers as the result of a mad scientist. Together they form a team to defend Rachel from forces looking to harness her power.

"Titans" wisely differentiates itself by being tonally quite different to the rest of the shows, particularly the other Berlanti-verse ones. It's a lot more violent, and more willing to show the effects of that violence, there's more swearing and sex scenes too. It also tells one (... well ... half...) a contained story across the 11 episode run, rather than the networks 22 episode "Villain of the week" style season. Occasion episodes take the focus away from the team that pad out the universe a bit, explaining who some of the other characters are and there is a backdoor pilot for "Doom Patrol" that forms one episode. It's a show that rewards a wider knowledge of the Batman/DC universe but I think it would work well enough on its own standing, provided you're prepared to accept a superhero/meta-human concept in general.

There are a few little flaws, occasionally the effects aren't perfect. Though I ended up warming to all the characters by the end, the introductions sometimes don't make them seem as appealing as they might do and occasionally, you're going to be ahead of the plot and have to wait for it to catch up with you - but in general, these were minor quibbles in a season that I enjoyed enormously (titanic-ly, if you will). Looking forward to more.

Season one Review:

Every episode is better than the previous, Titans has gradually built a foundation on which the DC Extended Universe can stand on, a Universe that has been struggling to find it's footing ever since it launched with Man of Steel back in 2013 and though that is a guilty pleasure of mine. I do agree that DC has been having trouble in there cinematic universe. However Titans is something I cannot praise enough, and this make's me sure that DC will find it's footing(at least in the dcuniverse), with shows like Metropolis coming out(did you see that teaser!?) Titans is a series that's brutal and doesn't pull any punches and it's exactly the series that DC needed and deserved. I cannot wait to see what the second season will have to offer(fingers crossed for Nightwing)

Season Finale Review:

Who would have predicted this series would be this good? Can you remeber the marketing for this show, I'm still trying to forget. But man, this is proof of the potential stories that the DC Extended Universe can provide. Masterful storytelling. Yes, it was obviously a dream state of sorts but even I was sucked into it and the ripples that Trigon created added incentive to the story line and kept the plot moving. Building the climax till even Grayson turned his back to the justice system. Showing how powerful Trigon is and how important it is to have a villian with depth. That being said, I feel like Seamus Dever is miscast here, not that he's a bad actor, he just deosn't look or even feel the part. Might be knitpicking but I did feel like it needed to be said.

'Dick Grayson' is the finale of Titans Season 1. The acting was really well done especially Brenton Thwaites's. The videography was really good. The directing was amazingly done. There was some references that i truly enjoyed. Even though some scenes felt choppy at times, It was still pleasurable to watch. The story was nicely done and unfolded really well. It had a twist which was quite predictable actually . But the After Credit Scene was something to look forward to in the next season. The cliffhanger was something to desire for and felt weak. I truly expected more from the finale.

Watch til, the end credits. The episode was amazing and ended an amazing season with a crazy cliffhanger
