I've been catching up on this action packed animation, and I have to say I think it WAS, pretty awesome. Apparently though the stupid "it better sell toys" powers that be at Cartoon Network have decided to cancel it. They seem to think that it's better to go back to the "Teen Titans" and their very shitty writing and piss poor American style manga. What is CN deal? For me I watch Young Justice, and think, this is something that appeals to both children and adults. Has some very adult undertones, with enough "goofiness" for children. Has anyone else checked out Young Justice, and if so what was your opinion?

I loved it. I thought season 2 started out great but lost steam through the second half. It didn't live up to its promise IMO, but great animation and a host of characters not seen animated previously make it a win. Shame about the cancellation, but I'm actually looking forward to the new CGI Beware the Batman.

Liked it but I thought Teen Titans was better. From what i got out of it, YJ had the same stoic bland character development that a lot of DC works have problems overcoming.

I really enjoyed and it was not happy when it was cancelled. I agree that season 1 was more solid and focused but it was cool to see more characters in season 2.

Young Justice was awesome, it was pretty annoying when CN canceled it for their crappy new shows. I found both seasons to be top notch.

was pretty bummed when I saw they were getting bumped for the Batman and TT shows. Though I thought it was a replacement type deal at first, letting YJ and GL:TAS get take a break for another season. Then I saw that was not the case

The finale of YJ pissed me off so hard knowing the fate of the program, so many plots set up. Leaves open a huge one with my favorite comic book character.

Toys are a pretty big part of any action cartoon, and YJ stuff still hangs out in discount isles with the reboot Thundercats toys. Green Lantern didn't even get the chance, as the movie toys destroyed it's retail image.

I'm interested in the new TT series, though I wish they wouldn't have changed the animation from the shorts that got them the show. Glad it doesn't look like it clings to the old series storyline wise, which I'm glad. I like the ending of TT, glad it will remain intact.

There's some website I was reading about that's purpose it basically setting up meetings over cancelled shows with their companies in hopes to revive them. Not sure of the legitimacy or the effectiveness.
