Damn I voted for the wrong one, Anyways I was most likely vote for Robin because that skinny bastard can jump from roof to roof, fight off monster's that are 10x bigger then him. Wtf? Seriously Batman cannot even do that crap, so how the hell can such a skinny bastard like Robin do much more then Batman? I mean come on, Batman is a freaking legend next to Superman. I highly doubt that's how Robin was in the Original Batman series. And beside's they screw it up, since he was old in that series and they had the Titans and all before that crap, Anyways Robin sucks and needs to die with his skinny toothpick girlfriend Starefire.

lmao I so have to agree with that. What the heck is the deal with the producers and their constant need to "overpower" the characters... I mean really now... I hate watching Robin smash his foot in Cinderblock's face and cause the beast to go back a few feet. Seriously people Batman can't do that with a ton of bricks... I doubt Robin can, even IF his little gf Starfire did thrust him towards the thing. All that would do is probably break the boy's leg and then cause the other to break when he falls and lands from that height. I didn't like Robin in the begining, but the reason I chose Beastboy is because he is annoying, Robin I can deal with... sometimes... you know what... they're all bad characters... BRING BACK JLU! >.<

I still think Larry has something to do with Robin's managing to survive as long as he has.

STARFIRE!!!
She's such a damsel in distress(D.I.D) when Robin's around and when he's not she fights perfectly. It drives me absolutely crazy. Now as for Robin, he is too boastful for me sometimes and that just plain annoys me like hell.
What we have to remember though is that ALOT of the characters personalities were altered in this version of the show because it is for younger children. You read the comics and you see a whole new side to these characters because of that. For instance in my opinion I think Raven looks better in the originals.

But Batman was teaching Robin before he went to the titans. So why the hell would they make him stronger then Batman. By the way, Sage you're right. Bring JLU back!

EXACTLY we see Batman take out even tougher villians with his brains and brawn... maybe Robin lacks brains so they give him brawn ha ha *laughs at own joke*
WE WANT JLU!!! it was getting good too... stupid CN people...
Anyway back to what Kaiyah said... yeah Starfire just annoys me... she's a blonde with a red wig on ha ha.. her sister is cooler... way cooler. I know I know peopel are going to tell me, "But Sage she's an alien she knows nothing about earth's cultures you have to give her a chance..." blah I know that but really... she's just annoying not because she knows nothing, but just her personality... honestly I think I'd like the original Starfire's personality... I'm gonna go to the comic book store one of these days and go read a few TT comics to see about that. Her powers are cool I'll give her props for that... but I just hate the whole Oh I'm so sweet and innocent but I can sure give one hell of a punch personality... her sweet and innocent jip is way too much for me.
While I'm here lemme criticize all the characters. I'm bored I get out of school early now... so I'm gonna amuse myself lol
Robin... I think I've already discussed this. He's overall personality is at times ok, pretty human and ok to deal with. I just hate how the writers over power him and how he never uses those skills he's learned from one of the seven greatest DC characters... at least stay true to your roots man... your roots *sniff* lol. Sometimes he's stupid... sometimes he's out of character... sometimes he's too boastful sometimes... he's just so flawed I wanna strange that tiny almost non existent neck of his lol.
Raven... man at first she was soo cool and I was like " OMFG RAVEN FAN FOR LIFE SHE IS THE SHYT PURE AWESOMENESS" whatever lol... now she's just meh. Her powers get annoying... the only reason they're cool is because we don't see her use it often mainly because she's not a first line shooter... just the person who jumps in when everyone else is occupying the enemy or something. They were right she would be NOTHING without her friends... I mean come on she can't even put up a good fight on her own only when she's ultra pissed or ultra motivated (lol). Her personality gets annoying too... you know we're all like yeah sarcasm is awesome and yeah how she doesn't care is awesome... but then the writer's OD on that too and sarcasm is only funny when I use it now... now I only snicker at my dry humor as people still try to grasp what I have just said. Yeah sure she's got an awesome past or whatever but WTF?! did they do at the end of the end pt3? What did they have like 4 more minutes left and the writers we like "You know what cut the pt 4 out let's finish this already" seriously.. it's just like cyborg's little gip about how he could somehow regenerate ooo ahhh... what?! What else what else... oh yeah people's over obesession w/ her annoys me too... yep yep
Beastboy... my god I already said why, he's an annoying shyt who won't shut up, tries hard to be funny, and doesn't know crap. Man he's like the retarded kid in my class who always stares at me when I throw some really cynical remark at him or something... you just wanna strangle the little freak.. while yelling "Stop trying so DAMN hard!" (BD)
Cyborg... honestly he's okay in my opinion... probably b/c the writers don't like him or something xD.. he only annoys me in his own episodes... because I learn nothing... forget something... and hate that everything (about cyborg). One thing that annoys me is that Cyborg is capable of using his sonic blast to tear away a good deal of buildings apart... but he can only seem to throw people back with it... perhaps I'm being misguided by the images and not following the whole "sonic" concept... I don't know I think sonic=sound thing so I'm assuming that he's sound can't rip people apart or something... OR he's altered it to destroy non-organic things or something... hm.. yeah. But he's personality I can deal with I mean really there's nothing wrong with the guy IMO... maybe I ignore him so much since he doesn't have alot of screen time I'm not able to point them out xD
um... I think that's all the Titans... throw me another character... and I'll criticize them too yay lol

I'll agree with pretty much all of that...though as you've probably figured out; I think Sum of His Parts was really the only good Cyborg-centric episode, as the opposition character was actually cool and interesting. (Blood...Billy Numerous..Atlas...they annoyed me). Also; at that point the "Man > Machine" formula wasn't overdone to an annoying degree, and was actually cool.
Rest of what you said though; I'll agree with.

Cyborg doesn't do much in the show, and if would not effect the show at all if he were to leave. I mean don't get me wrong he is cool and all, but seriously half of the time he's just there.
Robin really needs to go back to being a sidekick if you ask me. That was just a perfect role for him. While his girlfriend Starfire is just plain better in the originals just as Sage said.
One thing I don't like is how the characters never get hurt. Robin can get thrown from a seven foot building onto the ground and not a thing happened to him. Same goes for all the characters.

Starfire falling would be acceptable, I'm assuming that she also has enhanced endurance.. or something like that
So would Cyborg... well maybe not unless he's armor has that type of endurance...
Raven... Raven doesn't fall alot... she just gets thrown back but not that far.. too bad the show can't have blood... ooo the little kids.. they've NEVER seen blood before OMG! -_-
Robin... yea... no opinion there... if I can't survive it... I don't expect him to...
Beastboy... he could morph or something I think lol... but he doesn't get thrown back either lol
