It was a great tv series yall

perhaps the last of its kind.

yea i hated that they deaded kaldur & rocket. i hated that they never had a flashback episode or segment revealing how aquagirl got killed or how/where kaldur found out about his father, or how he felt about aquaman keepin that from him or what convo led him dikk and Wally to use that to their advantage (remember that Kaldur's focus ep in season 1 involved him fighting manta without knowing that was his dad, but obviously manta knew who kaldur was but kept it to himself). M'gann piecing his mind and memories back together would have been the perfect time to reveal all this.. and i thought that was the plan actually.

but, to echo others, everything was so rushed b/c of the cancelation that who knows how things would have gone if they'd actually had a full 26 episodes (like in season 1) to flesh things out, or just had another season where they could carry things over.

At the end of the day tho, i felt invested in the core characters (and felt some sort of way when wally.. yknow) and felt this show did a great job in including black and brown people in this (static & blue beetle) as well as strong female characters (black and white) and positive portrayals of black romance (bumblebee+mal) that you rarely see on mainstream television.

These are the type of cartoons that kids need to be watching as it subtly introduces and desensitizes them to the idea of differing racial and gender roles in leadership and heroism, as opposed to the white washed bullshyt they are fed everyday in other forms of entertainment.

I :salute: this show on so many levels man, i didn't expect much from it when it first aired a few years back but it was well worth the time invested. Nothing but respect to the creators for a job damn well done.

i agre and it wasnt corny like having a black green lantern for demographic taste, you hda black strong leaders like kaldur etc.

f it man im pissed

THEY KILLED MY nikka WALLY:damn::damn::damn:. On the real i was getting a little to close to tearing up:sadcam:

Ive been avoiding this thread like the plague, i dont want it to be over. I cant believe CN is getting rid of YJ and GL for some shytty batman and teen titans shows. I think im gonna go back to boycotting CN. Ive been saying this ever since the show has ended, "This cant be life...".

Whats people favorite moments? I gotta go with Kaldur fake killing Artemis. I still get the chills when he says welcome back:whew:. Also Black Beetle :stylin: on the whole team in that rescue episode where Megan fry kaldur mind. So many great episode/moments:wow:, i gotta cop those dvds. They better come out in blu-rays.

I don't remember it being explained in the show but in the comics they retconned it so that Barry unintentionally created the Speed Force that the other Flashes draw their power from. Because of that Barry is able to use the Speed force in ways most other speedsters can't.

Since Bart is Barry's direct descendant he's able to do much of the same stuff Barry is able to do. It was reverenced when Bart first showed up and was able to see stuff Barry could see but Wally couldn't. Bart said something along the lines of "you need to have the Allen family eyes" or something like that.

im still mad jlu got cancelled. this series was a pleasant surprise. a solid B compared to jlu but of course they fukked it up.

hopefully netflix continues to grow success w/ their original kids programming like they have with house of cards and in the future they can just cut a deal w/ dc & marvel to produce shows like this w/o any fukkery.
