You!ng Justice will be cancelled because their toyline didn't seel so they cancelled it.

DC seems to be in control of DC Nation and the shows on that block, and I don't think they'd cancel their flagship series. Sure, Beware the Batman will likely take that crown, but I have a feeling it'll be less marketable than YJ.

There's also the new Teen Titans show to potentially replace it.

Yeah, TT Go is a much needed comedy show for the block. But since the block itself is action oriented, I can't see it being held too prominently.
They do this, and they will have all the comedy they need for 2 seasons.
Its gonna be missing out with no kyle changing his costume every 3 seconds.

Meh, at least Conner had the sense to be suspicious and was kinda self-aware about what the patches could be doing to him.
Speaking of Conner(well, more MM, but still), I almost laughed out loud at M'gann rationalizing away her guilt about his birthday: "I don't have time for parties... HEY GIRLFRIEND!" -has party-

Hey, network execs tend to run on cray cray logic. I wouldn't be surprised if they thought of the two shows as being redundant just because they both have teams with young membes, despite having drastically different tones. Besides that, Beware the Batman and Green Lantern will both be their serious shows, and if Young Justice has the weakest toy sales they can justify dropping it in favor of a comedy show that brings variety to the block. Also Young Justice isn't a shiny CG show, I'm sure the thought process would be "kids love that CG shit - guaranteed money! Kids won't go for serious cel animated cartoons anyways, 2D is for babies."
Thought the exact same shit. She doesn't really seem to be all that broken up about lagaan. Hell none of them seemed too. It didn't seem in bad taste to have a bridal shower while one of your own goes missing?
Wendy Harris.
Here is her complete bio but considering the liberties YJ is taking I doubt any of the dreadful stuff will ever be canon.

And another just "died" LOL (though to be fair she got mentioned).
Still annoyed at the bullshit MM pulled with SB though.
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
I wonder if we'll eventually see Wonderdog lol
Hmm I don't remember much about BatB's ep, but I guess he died without a killer there huh?

That whole thing was/is a prime example of why I hate reading actual DC comics. Things are okay until BS like that happens out of nowhere. That kind of crap seems like it happens all the time too. Sicking.

Yea i miss the Teen Titans tv series since it wasn't that grim
Didn't they wipe out an entire branch of Titans at one point in the comics?

No, I mean if it was the titans comics, with the large young justice population, half or more of them would be dead.
A few times. I know the team titans were erased from history.

I understood what you meant but i just jumped to your point of TT being more grim and wished that was just like the animated series.
sorry about that though
I guess so but i didn't read teen titans comics until the young justice characters started to show up on the team and even then that had some moments.
It was a fun comic. Everyone was fun in that comic. And the best version of lagoon boy. I kinda wish slobo and emp were more permanent.
That and Beware the Batman are being added making it a nice solid 2 hour block (supposedly)

Solid episode, the parking garage fight was awesome. This is one of the better animated shows out there.
Although the B plot with the girls at the bridal shower was really odd. It should have just ended with the touching toast to Artemis, the rest of it was completely unnecessary.

It should have started and ended there. The zatanna and mgann stuff was odd too.

no people liked the character, the problem was DC callous disregard for the fans. it led to good stories but death is always the cheapest way to reach good stories.
nobody hates Jaime but they shouldn't make a new character at the expense of another stablished one.
ugh, whatever. 'cause marvel is so mature...

I actually liked them showing the ice dude having a completely shitty day due to horrible timing/coincidence. LOL
Could have remove the Zatanna/Mgann part since that was garbage.

It felt like they were creating a couple scenes just so we didn't forget about those characters. I guess the point was to show their reactions to the death of Artemis...but the Captain Cold gag felt really tacked on.
It really seems like the writers are making mgann colder
in order to transition her to turn into a full fledged white martian. This whole season has made her seem unusually cold in comparison to how she was in season 1. And her psychic manipulation of villains, and then superboy seems really out of character. And the superboy thing has me wondering the most. She was willing to fix the memories of someone who she knew thought of her as his whole world, so how far would she go? Would she manipulate a merman in a hope to make kon jealous? She doesn't seem all that worried that lagaan is gone, instead she worries about kon. Again. If wendy and kon become an item, and she finds out, she's gonna lose her mind. And with her skill set, she can do just about anything, to impersonating wendy, to mindwiping wendy to leave kon. It makes me wonder how many white martians are left.

if they follow strict DC timeline, there are about
77 white martians. with the pwoer to level mountains
They aren't going strictly by comics. Gars origin is completely different for one. More white martians would be a ripe chance for my boy to appear though...
Did I say anything about Marvel? However I don't find a high and bloody body count to be a sign of "mature" storytelling. Especially since it's done for pure shock value. Perhaps I had bad luck in regard to the titles I read, characters I ended up liking and at the time I read but that's the impression I have.
god i love her

The YJ toyline. It didn't do well at all so they cancelled it right before the S2 stuff came out.
extremely crappy product and overabundance of 2 characters.

I was pissed when they went to mail order only as a trial and it was fucking Superboy and miss Martian for fifty dollars.
