Every season I've had to ask myself the following questions:
1) Will the characters actually learn something and stop making stupid decisions
2) Will the good guys recognize that not everyone follows their same ideals and stop trusting everyone
3) Will the show writers stop taking viewers for idiots
4) Just how ludicrous can these storylines this get
5) How hard are they going to beat a dead horse each season
6) Why haven't the writers been replaced
Yet, somehow with every new season the writers prove that they can actually do worse than the season before. It almost feels like each season the characters start over from scratch in regards to applying any knowledge they have to current circumstances - "Oh, the bad guys laid a trap, we walked into it knowingly, and we still lost to the bad guys horribly...let's do it again, but with even less planning!"
Heck, this particular episode Dick is once again astonished to find that the computer system has already been hacked - just like two (?) episodes prior. Duh Dick! It has gotten so bad that you already know how the episode will end - with the Titans, usually Dick, screwing up.
Let's also not forget thought that the continuity from episode to episode and season to season has always been crap, but this particular episode takes the cake - not just Dick, but Crane's character as well.
Sadly, none of the characters remotely resemble anything from the comics or prior shows. There's nothing wrong with being original, but at this point this is more a show about losers with powers similar to the Titans, but not actually the Titans.
I'll finish the season out, stubbornly, but I highly suspect that if this hasn't been renewed already it may get cancelled - if not at the end of this season, then at the end of next. I know the fanbois will hate me for saying that, but honestly the show's writing hasn't improved, the ratings definitely haven't improved, and the writers always feel stuck on one track when it comes to story. Plus, I feel as if a lot of the issues we're seeing are because the show has no real budget, as if they're already planning to shut it down soon - why else avoid having Gar or Superboy use their powers if not to avoid having expensive Fx/CGI.
I hope I'm wrong, I hope it improves, but after three seasons of the same stuff I highly doubt it.
