I never got the hype with this show.

Some of the episodes were really cool but I found the action was unimaginative most of the time and I get the whole Nolan thing they were going for but because of kids TV censorship the whole edgy grittiness they tried to add only felt forced and tacky.

I guess if I was still a hormonal teenager I woulda found all the angst in the show rockin' but as an adult all I could think of is why am I watching what basically amounts to a very watered down adaptation of some of my favourite characters and stories. I may as well just go back to my comics.

The reason I liked EMH's so much was even despite the general cheapness of the animation they captured the epic scale of superhero throwdowns in such an epic degree and with such childlike glee it was just so much fun to watch, even with the same limitations as YJ.

After watching the Hulk get punched through mountains the dour YJ was eye roll inducing.

I didn't like the first season of YJ,I actually hated it,but I'm talking about the latest season.There was far less focus on "relationships" and alot more on missions and impending doom.Heck,the whole season revolves around an alien invasion.

Oh and I agree with you on the whole hormonal teenager thing,but it is a show aimed towards teenagers.

I gave up on the series after there was a completely unexplained time skip that the show just seemed to forget about followed by constant hiatuses.

That annoyed the crap out of me. Why start airing new episodes if you're just gonna pull re-runs again? Makes zero sense…

But yeah, the sudden time skip was bothersome too. Apparently, the game that's coming out is going to tie both seasons together.

Oh the last season is great.Really focuses on missions and espionage.

Tip:This video is the fiale minute or so of YJ as a series.You'll see what I mean by "It got good".Be forewarned though,spoilers ahead.

They're doing the whole Defiance thing? I hope this new blending of two medium crap thing doesn't become the norm. I'm really not much of a gamer and I'd hate to basically be missing out on half my stories in ten years because they have all these cross media games.

Tie in games like that usually aren't worth the admission price…I'll most likely be watching a walk through or something to know what happened myself.
