Teen Titans Go has gotten a lot of hate to the point where there are episodes written that tackle such criticism, but this episode (which is a crossover episode with Thundercats Roar), basically crosses the line to the point where it makes the writers come off as immature.
In sypnosis, the Teen Titans (sans Starfire) come out cosplaying as Thundercats characters after hearing the show returned, but after seeing Thundercats Roar, the four get mad at it, while Starfire loves it. Yeah, the episode has Robin, Raven, Cyborg, and Beast Boy act like rabid fanbrats of the original, while Starfire likes it, in which she is treated like dirt for it (like anyone on the internet with a different opinion). This leads to the four starting a petition and getting more rabid Thundercats fans to sign, but when that results in a drawing of Bugs Bunny, Raven uses her dark magic to teleport them to the Thundercats Roar world to fight that show's incarnation of the Thundercats.
Technically, this episode is horrible and flawed. It only shows the view of the rabid haters, while the sane haters are not represented in any way, as the episode says all haters are rabid manchildren and sane fans who do not support the reboot are non-existent. Also, the episodes has the characters say poop (which is shocking that today's cartoon allowed that), and to make matters worst, the end has the original Lion-O saying anyone who hates Thundercats Roar are "poop mouths with poop opinions (and they even got Larry Kenney to voice that, which would stain that voice actor's legacy within the Thundercats fandom). Also, the ending has 2011 Lion-O and Classic Snarf near the skeletal remains of the Panthero from the original show, which has been seen as being disrespectful to the late Earle Hyman. In any case, this proves the writers of both shows need to grow up to the point where they need to start addressing the hate the shows get calmly and properly or start ignoring the rabid haters (which most animation studios actually do) and focus on making cartoons regardless of what people think of them.
