DC has announced the name of their new streaming service.  It will be DC Universe, and will premiere with 4 exclusive new titles: Titans, Young Justice Outsiders, Harley Quinn, and the newly-announced Swamp Thing, directed by James Wan.

Also: we have a logo!

I've heard of shows that have been granted full-season pick-ups,

and even a few shows that have been renewed for a second season before one second of the show "actually" debuts.

This is the first time (to my knowledge) that a show is granted a spin-off before it even debuts.

Before long, we will have a show that is "so adored" by the "network",

it will be granted six seasons, a two-hour finale movie shown in theaters, and two spin-offs

before one second of the show "actually" debuts.

I remember when the show Angie was universally adored and star Donna Pescow (now occasionally seen as the therapist on The Flash) was America's Newest Sweetheart... all in ads in TV Guide that hit stands before the series premiere had even aired.

This is a new synopsis, right?

Quote

Titans follows young heroes from across the DC Universe as they come of age and find belonging in a gritty take on the classic Teen Titans franchise. Dick Grayson and Rachel Roth, a special young girl possessed by a strange darkness, get embroiled in a conspiracy that could bring Hell on Earth. Joining them along the way are the hot-headed Starfire and loveable Beast Boy. Together they become a surrogate family and team of heroes.

 

(Can't wait until Hollywood gets past the "a gritty take on..." phase of adaptations)

And still no firm release date.

First off - 'booo' to these photos being so dark (and Photoshopped).

Secondly; I'm not feelin' the costume. It doesn't scream "Robin" to me. Yeah, it's got the right colors, and the 'R' symbol, but it also seems too heavy/bulky, and I don't think it works with the cape. Good job with the domino mask, though.

I assume he's going to have a second 'Nightwing' costume at some point?

I know we are supposed to get A LOT of guest stars this season but if this show lives past a 1st season, really hoping we get a Wonder character up in there full time. Donna/Cassie deserve their time to shine! And maybe a Speedster or archer or Aqua_____.

Spoiler

We know we're getting Donna.

Fuck Batman! You tell him, Dick! Fuck yeah!

That is a laughably bad trailer. It's an edgy 14 year old boy from 1992's dream. How does this look cheaper than any CW show? I've seen better fanmade trailer using clips from random shows and movies.

(no nudity, sorry).

Well, they're aiming for an "R rating" apparently, so stay tuned for that Robin/Starfire sex scene....

It would help if they at least gave us an image that doesn't look exactly like the one second we saw of her in the trailer.

Meanwhile we're, what, six weeks from the premiere? And they're giving us basic promo pics that show us nothing new. Didn't this show begin filming months ago? Some episodes stills or a new trailer would've been nice. They're launching a brand new streaming service and this will be their first original live series, so I keep expecting more effort.

For me, I'm still waiting for a reason to start a subscription immediately rather than wait until all 12 eps are released so I can bingewatch.

They need to ditch that hideous fur coat, but otherwise, I think Starfire looks fine. I'm glad we got a better look at Beast Boy. So he's going to have green skin with CGI?

I wasn't sure if this would be available online when they announced it, but the first DC Daily episode is up on DC's youtube channel. They have a 20-second clip of the two Robins (it's near the beginning). Most of the rest of it is selling DC Universe and other DC stuff; but there's also a short interview with Kevin Conroy for Batman Day.

I'm really curious what Starfire's story/backstory is in this.

And for the record, I have no problem with Starfire's outfit or hair, but that Wookie coat needs to burn.

Agreed.  When I first saw it in the BTS pics I thought it was something she was wearing off-camera to keep warm in Toronto.
