More than three-quarters of the episode works to wrap up a storyline we watched almost a year ago, then there’s a classic season finale-feeling parting of ways, then roughly 12-ish minutes that actually feels like a season 2. ... I still came away from “Trigon” really hopeful about Titans season 2. The last quarter or so of the episode moves with a different lightness than anything else that came before it Read full review

Amazing season was definitely better then the first. Deathstoke and his connection to the titans was an amazing watch.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Finished season 2 of Titans and it was so much better than season 1, near perfect. The acting from Curran Walters, Ryan Potter, Teagan Croft, Joshua Orpin, Alan Ritchson, Brenton Thwaites, Esai Morales, Conor Leslie, Anna Diop, Chelsea Zhang, Minka Kelly, Chella Man, Natalie Gumede, Iain Glen, and Michael Mosley was phenomenal. The chemistry was exceptional between the cast just like last season. The writing was fantastic a lot better than first season especially the story, more focused and put together this season. The character development was outstanding especially with Jason, Dick, Rachel, Gar, Donna, Connor, Hank, Rose, Jericho, and Kory. The costumes were stupendous especially ones wore by Brenton Thwaites, Esai Morales, Ryan Potter, Anna Diop, Teagan Croft, Conor Leslie, Chelsea Zhang, Chella Man, Minka Kelly, and Alan Ritchson. The makeup and hairstyling was excellent especially on Anna Diop, Teagan Croft, Ryan Potter, Minka Kelly, Esai Morales, Natalie Gumede, Chelsea Zhang, Alan Ritchson, Conor Leslie, and Chella Man and the wigs were a lot better this season like Teagan and Minka's that weren't the best the first season. The visual effects were superb especially Rachel's powers, Rose's bones going back into place, Kory's powers, Gar as a tiger, Connor's Powers, and Krypto's powers, Gar as a tiger and Rachel's powers were a lot better looking this season a lot more realistic. The fight choreography was amazing so much better than season 1, a lot more realistic. The music is terrific. Also still love the main title design, it is so cool just love the look and music. The was such a near perfect season, definite A+ 2nd season.… Expand

Titans season 2 showed so much potential, but tries too hard to do way too much and too quickly. This is a classic case of less is more.

TL;DR - To my puzzlement and confusion, Titans S02 does the thing where instead of choosing 2 or maybe 3 plotlines and focusing on them, they go and stuff the season with so many things turning a possibly strong show into a convoluted mess.
Neither the new story beats get enough attention,TL;DR - To my puzzlement and confusion, Titans S02 does the thing where instead of choosing 2 or maybe 3 plotlines and focusing on them, they go and stuff the season with so many things turning a possibly strong show into a convoluted mess.
Neither the new story beats get enough attention, neither the holdover storylines from the previous season get full attention, and all of the fantastic performances that the cast is giving just adds up to a mediocre and haphazard watching experience.

The Good
Every single actor in this show from the time of Season 01 really is great in their roles, the Titans show really hit gold with the casting. Everybody feels authentic and you understand what everyone and why everyone is doing it, no matter the enormous amount of plot-induced stupidity the writers make the characters go through.

I truly cannot single anyone out from the show, the cast are great actors and this is probably the main reason that you will watch this show if it continues. You will really connect with the performances and in turn like the characters, but at some point, you will get bored at all the idiotic things the characters say and do because of the crap writing going on in the show.

The dialogue writing has a marked improvement from S01, you will only roll your eyes a few times in the show but it is not all that good because the dialogue is well written but the content is garbage.

The Bad

There is so much stupid in this show that some of the criticism leaked out in the positive's section of this review. Truly I think overstuffed and convoluted are two words to really describe this show. It seems the showrunners do not yet realize the casting gold they have struck and hence they make the characters separate every so often and go off on their own dumb storylines because god forbid we get the namesake of the show 'Titans' interact, talk, or otherwise share meaningful scenes together.

I do not know what the writers were thinking, were they under stress to shove un-needed story beats were focusing on just a couple would have made for a better watch and probably easier on the budget. It does the same DC mistake of putting so much into one box that at the end the quantity just deforms the box until it does not look like a box anymore but crumpled and smashed tatters.

The only way that this show knows how to deal with a problem is to introduce another problem, usually, something totally blindsiding the ongoing story beat or force the characters into stupid decisions to cause an additional roadblock. All the season needed was the Titans dealing with the holdover plot points from S01 and introducing the leftover plotline from the old titan's team which were the most interesting parts of the season, we would get to see each of the titans reacting differently to different issues maybe interacting and reacting in different ways to the same issue.

Sadly all the writers seemed to know how to do was to keep making the characters do stupid things and leave, or introduce new plotlines from nowhere and go missing making sure that the Titans spend a lot of the season just not interacting as a team but either alone with other new story beats or in bunches of 2.

A special mention to the editing of this show, holy crap the editing is bad, jarring, and very confusing jumping all over the place. I know people make a big deal with the VFX of the show; there are good shows with crap VFX, but the editing here is something that has no excuse. The editors were either doing their job drunk, under stress at a gunpoint, or really did not care very much.

Final Words

I could go on for paragraphs with everything that just didn't need to be there, or everything that needed more attention, or everything that was spent too much time on.
I have been a fan of Titans all the way from the animated days, and to my excitement, the portrayal of the characters does feel great thanks to some stellar performances, but this show needs better writing and a focused storyline, we also need to see the titans interact more with each other they spend way to much time apart.

With this show, I am into sunk cost fallacy zone, where after forcing, myself through 2 seasons I have invested too much time that I will watch S03, but I will definitely, be expecting the ax after season 03 if the writing does not get streamlined.… Expand

Show basically no one asked for like titans go, if anything they just need to continue teen titans. At least it got it right and was enjoyable.
