About Teen Titans Go!
Teen Titans Go! is an American animated television series that premiered in 2013, which is a follow-up to the 2003 Teen Titans series. The show is about the superhero team, Teen Titans consisting of Robin, Cyborg, Raven, Starfire, and Beast Boy. Unlike the original series, Teen Titans Go! tends to focus more on comedic and surreal adventures, with episodes often being self-referential and full of meta humor.
