Puffy Ami Yumi, "Teen Titans Theme" via iTunes (Mike Papa Whiskey)
Commentary: What I most appreciated about Teen Titans was the show's ability to walk the tightrope between anime-inspired wackiness & high superhero drama. The D.C. Animated Universe, stretching those halcyon years from Batman: The Animated Series through Justice League Unlimited was straight; yes, the shows always had humor, but they were never just little-kid goofy. Teen Titans Go! is all goofiness all the time, no drama, no stakes, neither emotional nor apocalyptic. Both of those extreme have their virtues, but only Teen Titans was able to have a foot in both worlds without even losing its balance.
