I could have used a bit more Ted Kord than we got, but Jaime was still awesome.

Which character are you talking about?

I thought the series had a decent ending. The Apokolips tease certainly made the show's cancellation all the more disappoinying, but I thought the ending was fine.

But that might be because I'm one of the three people who are fans of Spider-Man Unlimited.

Darkseid. He is one of my top three all time favorite DC Villains.

I mean the toys could have been endless, but sadly a great dc cartoon that was ended a season or 2 too short and no toys too be seen. I mean come on prime opportunity for a static figure and the different beatles.

I'm sure the sexist suits didn't help either, apparently they weren't too keen on having a growing female audience. I am not kidding, this crap has happened to other shows too, even to Paul Dini.

That’s the thing, you know I hate being Mr. Sour Grapes here, but I’ll just lay it on the line: that’s the thing that got us cancelled on Tower Prep, honest-to-God was, it’s like, ‘we need boys, but we need girls right there, right one step behind the boys’—this is the network talking—’one step behind the boys, not as smart as the boys, not as interesting as boys, but right there.’ And then we began writing stories that got into the two girls’ back stories, and they were really interesting. And suddenly we had families and girls watching, and girls really became a big part of our audience, in sort of like they picked up that Harry Potter type of serialized way, which is what The Batman in boarding school [?] is really gonna kill. But, the Cartoon Network was saying, ‘Fuck no, we want the boys’ action, it’s boys’ action, this goofy boy humor we’ve gotta get that in there. And we can’t—’ and I’d say, but look at the numbers, we’ve got parents watching, with the families, and then when you break it down—’Yeah, but the—so many—we’ve got too many girls. We need more boys.’

I watched an episode of Fair Oddparents for the first time in years. It was kinda fun watching it again. Though I have to ask, why is Timmy tanned?

Beach Episode? What do you mean "tanned?"

It was one where his dad goes back to school and takes a quiz show styled test. Timmy just seemed a little darker then I remembered. It could've been because I was watching the HD channel, but I don't think HD darkens things.

I just didn't like the time skip, and I still don't. I'm having a hard time getting into it. I don't find the new characters as interesting, the older characters I used to find interesting are no longer big players, while the older characters that are relevant (Superboy and Miss Martian) are just dull. After the revelation of Megan's true form they immediately moved the story 5 years forward, kind of killing it, while Superboy's tension with Supes was spontaneously fixed and now they're father and son or whatever.

The new heroes could be interesting, but by throwing a handful of new heroes at the same time with no time to establish them along with trying to keep the old characters' story and drama just makes it too clustered for me to really care anymore.

It's horrible about the series' cancellation just because girls were getting interested, really, and I hate CN's decision stemming because the audience wasn't 99% boys. But after a Season 1 marathon, I'm having a hard time even staying interested in season 2.

Why is it that whenever there's a power-failure at a supervillain prison, all of the physical security measures (e.g. manacles, barriers, etc.) are disabled? It seems a bit… dumb.
