A space-western on the universe's far frontier — the Corps' best screen outing.

Where to watch: Streaming on Max; digital purchase.
The story
Set on the far edge of Guardian space, GL:TAS is a space-western: Hal Jordan and Kilowog patrol the frontier in the Interceptor, joined by Razer — a Red Lantern questioning his rage — and the ship's AI, Aya.
It's the most comics-faithful Lantern show ever made: the emotional spectrum, the Red Lanterns, the Manhunters, the Star Sapphires, all woven into a serialized story about what the Corps means when no one's watching. Razer's arc — from rage to something like redemption — is the show's soul, and one of the best character arcs in DC animation.
Cancelled after one season (26 episodes) despite critical love, it remains the high-water mark: proof that the Lantern mythos sings when it's allowed to be cosmic, weird, and sincere.
