I just have to say that this and GL TAS are so fucking good that it makes me want to hate WB for cancelling them. But if they can replace them with similar caliber stories I may forgive

It's the Cartoon Network that cancelled the shows.  The CN is part of WB.  The shows are being replaced with shows that are geared more toward kids than adults (Titans Go and Batman ).  What's the logic?  Most likely money.  Never doubt the power of money.  Maybe the shows are too costly to produce and the WB are not making enough money from the shows.  Money can also come from sale of the toys and the home videos related to the shows.  The story lines for Young Justice can be appreciated by both adults and kids.  However, adults, unless they are serious collectors don't buy  toys.  The WB probably feels with a more kid friendly show then they can sell more toys and merchandise.

 Damn these networks catering to all the snotty nosed little carpet crawlers.

JD,resist the urge to cry and punch someone in the fartbox.

 I just want them to wrap up the storylines of both GL and YJ: I before they end.  Is that so much to ask?  I think not.

According to the sources from WB/CN Fenn, that will happen actually. Everything will wrap and there will be no "loose ends" as with JLU supposedly. As to the why the cancellation, I think it is very easy to determine that with f*cking around with their schedule, intermittently and repeatingly pulling the shows has made them hard to follow. Also the powers that be at WB/CN are probably looking to gear towards a younger audience in the hope of merchandising the F*CK out of the new shows I.E. The Batman.

These are by far the best calibur shows in the comic genre put out in 10 years. if only some other network, like say, HBO or DISNEY would pick them up. They make money and are GOOD. Hell make them OD and let people PAY to see the episodes. I would pay $2.00 a week to catch YJ at least.

 I would not object to a series of straight-to-Blue Ray Young Justice films.... and the marketing to kids only shows WB still has not caught what makes the competition so successful: respect for all ages and the source material. Young Justice is way better than most episodes of the JLU, and has far superior animation.

 @Egoist: I'm trying to resist. LOL "Fartbox"

@Fenngibbon and @Lazarus: Yeah it looks like everything is going to get wrapped up. Thank goodness too, there's nothing worse then a show that just cuts off mid season. At least they are letting it play out.

I'm hoping that maybe another network will pick it up, or that the DVDs will do well enough to bring it back, a la Futurama or Family Guy, but I doubt it. Let's face it, YJ just doesn't get the numbers that those shows get. What a bummer.

I still haven't checked out GL past episode 1.

Great episode... Hopefully they'll wrap things up.  And personally, I didn't like the way JLU ended.  There were still loops to be closed because I don't believe "they" died in the end.

In regards to why the Warworld has been allowed to remain in orbit, I would assume that it is because Our Heroes don't have the Key to activate it and thereby pilot it away from Earth.  The Reach (who have it as a result of Blue Beetle's betrayal of the team) won't admit to having it.  Given it's size, it's unlikely any Earth government has the ability to move it, and given the fact that Superman is out in the galaxy somewhere standing trial, it doesn't appear that any hero has the physical power to move a spacestation that is larger than our moon.
