DC Super Hero Girls

RELEASED 8 Mar 201914h 22m · 78 episodes★ 7.9 TMDB

The world may know them as Wonder Woman, Supergirl and Batgirl, but not-so-typical teenagers Diana, Kara and Barbara, alongside their Super Hero friends have much more to deal with than just protecting Metropolis from some of the most sinister school-aged Super-Villains. After all, being teens is tough enough, what with school, friends, family and the chaos that comes with managing a social life. But add super powers and a secret identity to the mix, and things can get a lot more complicated.

WATCH NOTE

Warner Bros. Animation's 2019 Cartoon Network adaptation follows teenage heroes at Metropolis High. Start with #SweetJustice, Parts 1–4 of season 1; its combined premiere presentation repeats those opening episodes. No earlier DC adaptation is established as required viewing. Super Shorts is separately catalogued, and Teen Titans Go! & DC Super Hero Girls: Mayhem in the Multiverse is a separate crossover movie. Animated Elseworlds collects separate continuities rather than one timeline. Additional supporting character associations are verified, while complete episode-specific credits and silent/background coverage remain under review. Livewire, Star Sapphire, Aqualad/Garth, Zod and other supporting roles retain unresolved official profile matches; Robin and the Bizarro/Supergirl variant need identity-specific reconciliation. Episode numbering, broadcast-date discrepancies and exact individual durations remain unresolved.
