- English theme lyrics
When there's trouble, you know who to call
Teen Titans!
From their tower, they can see it all
Teen Titans!
When there's evil on the attack
You can rest knowing they got your back
'Cause when the world needs heroes on patrol
Teen Titans GO!
With their superpowers they unite
Teen Titans!
Never met a villain that they liked
Teen Titans!
They've got the bad guys on the run
They never stop till the job is done
'Cause when the world is losin' all control
Teen Titans GO!
One, two, three, four, GO!
Teen Titans!
- Japanese theme lyrics

Legacy
Sam Register, who co-developed this series, went on to create Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi in 2004, based on the pop duo who did the theme song for Teen Titans. Like the former, Puffy AmiYumi also had an anime influence, but was more focused on comedy.
In 2006, Cartoon Network aired a de facto series finale TV movie called Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo.
From 2011 to 2012, a series of shorts titled New Teen Titans aired on Cartoon Network as part of their DC Nation Block, featuring chibi versions of the Titans in comedic skits. The principal cast members of the original show reprise their roles for that series.
Teen Titans Go!, a spin-off of both the original Teen Titans series and the New Teen Titans shorts, premiered on Cartoon Network on August 23, 2013, with the main cast of both series returning, though tonally different from these two entries. The series has had allusions and and cameos from the original Titans:
- In "The Fourth Wall," Control Freak reveals to the TTG Titans they are a failed reboot he created and plans to reboot them again.
- In "The Cape," it is a reconstruction of "Divide and Conquer" (with additional scenes from "Crash" and "Titans East, Part 1"), with new dubbing from the reinterpretations by the TTG Titans. In actuality, it is simply them watching the episode.
- In "Intro," the TTG Titans are trapped in the intros of other shows by Control Freak in order to stall them from continuing their own show, which eventually leads to the TTG Titans entering the world of the 2003 Titans and removing them, so they can replace them in the latter's intro, seemingly making themselves the "true" Titans.
- A mid-credits scene from Teen Titans Go! To the Movies feature a brief return of the 2003 Titans. In 2019, Warner Bros. released a crossover film featuring the Titans from both shows, titled Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans, which take place during the fifth season of Teen Titans Go!
