While fully CGI animated features vary in quality, Warner Bros. struck a really good chord here. From the start, CGI looks average, but as the show goes you start to notice all the details and animations to a realization that CGI is actually done really nice here.Story is mostly connected through couple of arcs, so watching episodes randomly is not recommended. Show itself is mostly about Kilowog, Hal, Aya and Razer flying around in a ship but the story expands as the show goes. It's also refreshing that the main villains are not Sinestro Corps and Yellow Lanterns.Performances are top notch, which is quite expected for a WB show.Really not too much bad to talk about. Yeah, Aya and Razer are a bit shoehorned but they also have their moments. There's also a few rogue filler episodes that are not the most interesting ones. Also, show is canceled after one season, so that's a bummer as well.But, definitely worth a watch.

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!!!

This is a review for episodes 1-13, as it is one complete story arc. Easy to contrast this against a horrible feature film and say it's good. But this 1st series stands alone as good Green Lantern canon on it's own. I like that the authors assumed we know that Hal Jordan was chosen and how he became a Green Lantern. Also like the realization of Oa and the Guardians. Art direction is top notch. Writing is even better. Excellent story obviously made by fans of Green Lantern Corps. Even with the cartoony style, it packs a lot more action, drama, and humor than the lame live action movie. (granted I know you have a better opportunity to develop characters in a series than you do in film).All in all I compare this to the Green Lantern Corps comic book for it's scope and breadth. Top notch entertainment that doesn't insult your intelligence. Would like to have seen how this would do in a prime time slot on a major network. Bet it would crush stupid reality TV. People would remember..."Oh yeah, storytelling rocks!"Also, this series encapsulates the true character of Hal Jordan. He's a cocky test pilot. I mean have you ever met a test pilot or even a fighter pilot? Very similar to the way Hal Jordan is portrayed here.Another thing this series does well, is show the capabilities and limitations of the power rings. Very well done and spot on, the way it's portrayed in the comics. Not to beat a dead horse, but the recent film got it wrong on even the characterization of Hal Jordan. Ryan Reynolds comes off as a smart ass. And while this is part of a test pilot's persona, it isn't the defining factor as it is with the way Reynolds played him. I suppose I can even go so far to say Reynolds was completely the wrong actor for the film. Hal Jordan in the comic book, is mid 40's early 50's, as he's retired Air Force and now a test pilot. Should have cast someone with the silver fox sides like the way Hal Jordan was drawn in the comic books. That's my only gripe about this animated series. I suppose they expected the target audience to be 18 and under. So maybe a greying super hero was out of the question.++++UPDATE+++ Recently finished watching episodes 14-26. It's even more engaging. Still blows my mind with the amount of money that gets put into live action film and promotions for "blockbuster" movies, that no super hero film I've seen comes close to this. It's that good. Once again, when a super hero comic is obviously written by comic book fans, and not your garden variety Hollywood ego-maniacs, (granted I'm assuming the creators of this series live and work in LA), you get a better story.

i am honestly not a big fan of CG to be honest i really don't like it that much i prefer GL first flight and the emerald knights with 2D animation. this show blew me away on how well it was done first off the dialogue is very well written, the story is okay nothing special, the way they portrayed the characters was excellent. what made me like this show the most was the themes of how they talked about death. and sacrifice and what would u do. which really surprised me so overall please give this show a chance before hating on how cheap the CG its good change of things. this is coming from a GL fan who has grown up with the series.
