They stopped 2 parters in season 3 (a.k.a. season 1 JLU), so it feels less draggy.

And season 5/season 3 JLU was a post-script season, so there's that.

post script? i do not understand.

It had the barest bones of a story arc and really really focused even more on newcomers

It was a season made after the perceived end by the writers. According to the staff they always end each season as a "last episode" because they wouldn't know when their show would end.

ah, gotcha. yeah, i got the homages to superfriends but it was really sloppy.

The last season did have "Flash and Substance," "The Great Brain Robbery," "Grudge Match," and the World of Cardboard speech...and that's about it.

Overall, the season suffered from having the O7 Leaguers largely absent and hardly using any of the newcomers they'd built up in the previous season. At first, it felt like they were going to focus more on the villains - which I was down for since it never felt like they got their due and were just punching bags - but that just boiled down to Luthor obsessing over Brainiac and Grodd being witty and Tala being thirsty.

Those are great episodes, you're right

 

[PhantomZone]

It was a wicked series

Ultra Humanite is my favorite character. He needed more screen time

The only villain more criminally shafted than Ultra Humanite was Circe. She got one episode, but fucking killed it. Humanite > Grodd too.

LTTP myself, I have been watching the Justice League on Netflix and the show has been a blast so far. Super enjoyable and while I have never been a DC guy really captures the personalities of the characters (Flash and Hawkgirl are the best btw) and their interactions with one another are great to see.

Also can be surprisingly deep and emotional on occasion. For example just finished up Starcrossed at the end of season 2. Fantastic story arc, great plot twist to kick it off and wonderfully moving at times.

Starting Unlimited now, any comics or animation fan should give the series try.

Man this show is incredible. Why did I miss it for long? season 1 was weak, but it picks up nicely.
