DC Super Hero Girls

The opening song makes my ears bleed.

Here's new challenge, try writing something good about the show.

Its acceptable for the demographic it aiming for

I like it! It's bright, colorful, and cheerful! Plus, Barbara Gordon as the IT person is genius.

For a second, I thought we were still talking about Beware the Batman!

Well, I'll add my two cents.

There is episode where Harley makes "funny" tape showing other in humiliating situations and accidentally posts it online. The girls are angry at her, but Wonder Woman decides to laugh it off, even poking fun at her part of video. Its a decent little lesson, that honestly wouldn't work as bigger, longer, more complicated story.

There are also shorts that seemingly connect about Wonder Woman making new outfit for art class. It works as lesson about being true to yourself, and subtle commentary on practicality of super hero outfits or constants attempts at remaking W-Woman, or following fashion and all that jazz.

I wonder if this show is a success they might revive the Gotham High idea?

Super girl finally joins the cast.

Also, it's about to premiere on Boomerang. Oh how I will feel so mixed about this.

Oh, so this will actually get on TV? I'll have to check it out when i go back to my parents' for Easter.

I believe it's just a special dealing with Earth-2 but that's better than makeover parties I think. Also, I know they would never do this, but I can't help but imagine Power Girl and her costume would look severely Uncanny Valley in the show.

This needs a crossover with Teen Titans GO! Both types of sucky would cancel each other for immediate awesomeness.

Better yet, Just hear me out:

1. Rehire Lauren Faust

2. Have her recreate SBFF into full TV show

3. Can TTG! but not before it does it's own swan song episode

4. Finish up Super hero girls because too much work to keep 2 girl themed superhero series

5. Crossover SBFF with Justice Leauge Action

6. ????

7. PROFIT!

How bad is this show???

From what I have been hearing pretty bad. Not too surprised really as the premise is filled with way too many pitfalls to be done well.

Hell these type of shows rarely work well....

At's not that bad when to take into account that all its really supposed to do keep your daughter entertained.

They weren't gunning for the adult demographic here.

It's not Friendship is Magic, that's for sure.

But do girls enjoy the show? We often get absorbed on what we (adults or teens) think that we forget about children's opinions. Like Teen Titans Go.

But the counter argument to this is "I don't want my children to watch crap." I was reminded of someone on reddit saying, paraphrased, "Caillou is an spoiled little shit. I won't let my children watch it, they might learn bad habits from him."

Your first point is basically my response to the second.Children should be able to decide for themselves what they want to watch (as long as its appropriate ).

There are shows that I enjoyed as a kid that I dont enjoy as much now (Xiaolin showdown).

And there are commentators on the shows youtube page who say that their little girls are enjoying it.But admittedly I dont have kids so I cant say for sure.

Actually, the newer Caillou episodes with the butt-ugly flash animation totally rewrote his personality to make him a perfectly well-behaved and loving child. It was creepy. I think his parents finally got fed up and gave him a lobotomy.

It's not an Equestria Girls either, or even Monster High has some clever moments from time to time.

We deserve better. At least these aren't friends in name only like Ultimate Spider-Man

Although people did have some obvious issues with Equestria Girls. Not sure about Monster High but I imagine some people might have issues with that as well if only for it being a cool concept that might be being wasted to a certain degree.

I like it, not the best, but definitely not the worst. Best way to look at it is an Elseworld story.

ONE...incredible dark side to this light-hearted toy commercial...Amanda Waller is the principal...and young...and happy...where as in the comics she's middle aged...and grumpy. Something goes down in this school, and my main theory is that half the students become super-villains and go to WAR with the other half!

ALSO...should we assume Barbara Gordon is the first mantle of the bat? Huh, neat!

She was the first protege in The Batman too.

Super best friend forever wasn't that good. Lauren's bat girl was basically a pinkie pie rehash ... and her super girl had zero respect for Superman( you know her role model and beloved cousin...)

Honestly, for little girls, this show is better than SBBF

This show is not intended for most of us and that's fine, but I really like how super girl is on this show. She had this humanity she often lacks and acts like a real teenager ( unlike SBFF)

Wonder Woman seems redundant on this show with supergirl around though.

We really didn't need two naive newcomers
