The series lasted five seasons with a total of 65 episodes. DC Comics publishes the comic book Teen Titans Go!, which is based on the series.

Series run

Teen Titans is based on the DC Comics superhero team, the Teen Titans, primarily the stories told in the early-80s The New Teen Titans comic book series by Marv Wolfman and George Pérez. The series revolves around main team members Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Raven. While it is an action cartoon, the series is also character-driven, with a focus on the main characters’ struggles with being teen-aged superheroes, their mutual friendships, and their limitations.

Seasons two and four are based upon two of the most popular New Teen Titans arcs, "Judas Contract" and "Terror of Trigon" respectively. Many characters from the comics, including Aqualad and Speedy, appear throughout the series. This is especially true in the final season which introduces many Titans from the comics into film for the first time as well as the Doom Patrol heroes and villains.

The team resides in a giant T-shaped Tower that is part high-tech command center, part dormitory, and part ultimate teen hangout. The Titans are based in a unnamed West-coast city, referred to as "Jump City" in the "Teen Titans GO!" spin-off comics.

Teen Titans frequently uses self-referential humor, and its animation style is heavily influenced by anime. On different episodes, the series' theme song's lyrics alternate between English and Japanese, sung by the J-Pop duo Puffy (called "Puffy AmiYumi" in the United States to distinguish it from Sean Combs).

In mid-November of 2005, TitansTower.com first reported the news that the prospects of a sixth season were looking extremely unlikely, and fans were urged to express their support for the show to Cartoon Network. Several days after this initial posting, the word came that Cartoon Network had officially declined to order further episodes.

According to Wil Wheaton, the actor who provided the voice of Aqualad, the series was canceled because new Warner Bros. Feature Animation executives decided not to renew the series based on the pitch for the sixth season. His story, however, was contradicted by series story editor Rob Hoegee who later stated that the decision not to renew the series came from Cartoon Network, not WB. Reports of layoffs at the WB studios in late 2005 were also speculated to be a factor in the show's cancellation.
