I just didn't care for the actors or characters all that much. Like @TimDuncanDonaut posted above, I don't need some intricate story line that introduces a new character every other show, warps you to another world and have a goat that represents something bigger. Although I did enjoy Watchmen- being unique without doing too much.

Being generic has its upsides. Sometimes, I want to turn my brain off and just watch a live action comic show like I could skim through a comic book. I will agree that ending for titans season 2 was really super weak and I didn't like jorah being BW, but there were hot actresses, a good story, good villain and good action.

No judgement. Also, to your other point -- I thought Watchmen was outstanding.

On Titans
I subscribed to the DC service; one of the reasons was Titans. There weren't too many weekly shows that I tuned in for, but that was one. Compare to the CW DC shows, which do too many love-arcs, Titan is more my speed. It is edgier, more action and cuts out lot of the relationship drama.

On Doom Patrol

I don't mind the show being trippy or weird but it has to be 'good' weird. As in like, I don't have to understand everything, but I should enjoy whatever's on the screen.

Have a like/hate feeling on the show. I liked the Chief and Rita. Cyborg (as a character), having been in Teen Titans and Justice League, is kind of an A-lister; he added more interests with the DC fandom by being in the show with not very well known characters. As far as actor personally preferred him over Ray Fisher (Cyborg in the JL movies). Beastboy, being in Titans, couldn't really be used in Doom Patrol, so he only had a few cameos earlier on.

The turn off for me is Jane and her multiple personality; too much over-acting. In some episodes, I wanted to skip over her scenes. To a lesser degree, also didn't like Brandon Frasiers as Cliff. When he (and Jane) do their dialogues, they do it in such a whiny tone. Not sure if that's the director or the script, but the actors don't do that as much in Orange is the New Black (Diane Guerrero) or Frasier in his earlier movies. Since both those characters aren't fringe characters and takes up major screen time; it's not high on my list.

Have a circle of friends who follow everything DC, they enjoyed Jane and Robotman; it is really one of those things where people's opinions just differ. Popularity and critics-wise, it is considered an underdog hit.

As far DC originals: my current list is Titans > Swamp Thing (cancelled - 1 season) > Stargirl (wholesome, in a good way; Luke Wilson is quite good for the role) > Doom Patrol

Girlfriend and I both like Jane, but Rita is probably our favorite character. She's had an amazing arc, I didn't like her initially at all. Gf hates Cliff, I at least understand him.

We all generally agree that Cyborg is a whiney baby...which was disappointing.

Anywho, again...I liked Titans. I just feel like I've seen it before...a lot.
