    Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
    Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
    Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
    Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
    bwanabeast91 This series was better than expected . The idea of a CGI animated series wasn't appealing to me but since the great Bruce Timm was the producer and well known for Batman The Animated Series, i gave it a shot and it was worth it . It had an excellent plot , at first i thought it would be only Hal Jordan vs Sinestro but it was more Red Lanterns vs Green Lanterns with other side stories and romance which was quite amazing to watch . The love between Aya and Red Lantern Razor was a great story to this series .Also the voice cast was good for this series definitely underrated and left us with a cliff hanger . Would love to see another season , it definitely deserves a season 2!!!
    tribulation-saint OK so normally I don't usually do this sort of thing but since I have finished watching the show I have felt that I have to say something cause I cant contain it.Anyway so I have never been a huge Green Lantern fan but my husband is and so when he said we were going to watch the GLTAS I was none too thrilled cause I had seen commericals of it on TV before and was not interested whats so ever but let me tell you something...This show is flipping amazing! seriously everything about it is wonderful,from the character designs to the witty dialogue and storyline is perfect and I highly recommend anyone who is a fan of superheroes,even if you prefer Marvel over DC to watch this show,not only will you love it but will want more which is also why I'm writing this review...The only disappoint part of the show is that its only 26 episodes long because it was canceled due to different reasons on Warner Bros. part so when you become a fan like me then you can now be left with painful whole in your heart from all the feels. Although I'am upset the show was canceled I can at least say that the very last episode was satisfying and not a cut mid-plot so overall it was a show ended quickly before its time.
    Istiaque Hossain Ullash the idea of CGI superhero animated series is new, all thanks goes to DC to try something like this, and i am not impressed with the decision of canceling the series. they should think out of the box more often, as they have some good competitors on the market. the series was good, better than expected, a good storyline, better animations, better voice actors and good action sequence, what else you want apart from these? storyline was very good, it can be compared with the of 7 voyages of sinbad, as they visit one after another planet and make something cool. there are many things left to show , so i hope DC will consider making a second season, and it will be a great pleasure to see a CGI justice league series, though it will be costly, so they can make the animated movies with CGI, it will be wise decision to join them with DC cinematic universe too. hope they will take the right decision for HAL JORDAN.
    claytondora Several comments I've seen judges the series in question on its pilot, which I agree was quite poor. If I had decided to write a review a year or so ago when the pilot came out, it probably would have been quite similar to the other low reviews based on that episode. Primary among which were deviations from Green Lantern cannon, poor characterization, lackluster visuals and a simplistic plot.However, these problems are practically non-existent by the fifth episode, "Heir Apparent" which is essentially a faithful retelling of a Green Lantern Corps story arc (the actual comics themselves). By this point, the cringe-worthy tension/dialogue between Razor and Kilowog has been resolved. Actually, at this point Kilowog becomes much less of annoyance. A lot of my problem with the pilot and the first episode or two is that Kilowog has a preponderance of speaking parts. He should be around mainly to hit things and provide the occasional comedic foil, but little more. Bruce Timm seems to agree. The Red Lanterns, which are a mere shadow of their awesomeness in the comic books, are handily dealt with, leading to bigger and better plots. The fact that they managed to introduce Saint Walker and the Blue Lantern Corps during the Red Lantern Plot Arc got me really jazzed. They do an excellent Job with him, and may hint at a big blackest night-esque arc in the future involving all the corps.If you doubt the coolness of the show, its faithfulness to the comics, or the quality of the animation, watch the last episode to air before it got put on hiatus "Steam Lantern". It stands on its own fairly well and represents how great this series has become/could become. They even drop a mention of Alan Scott in the Ep. So if your a long time GL fan, Definitely check the episode.
