They took quick glances at episodes, but did not watch the series from start to end. They probably picked up characters along the way, but would not have known about them when they started TTG.

If it was just a lighthearted humor then I wouldn't care it was there at all, might even enjoy it a bit. But it has to be so mean-spirited and and full of aesop. You know actually one episode indicated TT and TTG are in the same universes, the "Fourth Wall" one of the hater bashing episodes revealed Control Freak (from the original series) used his powers to reset reality and changed the Titans to their TTG incarnation, due to wanting to deal with a less powerful lamer version of the Titans.

It's still immensely popular among little kids under 8. They're drawn to the flashy colors, stupid songs, and BBRae.
