I have basically exactly the same experience with Green Lantern--only we've been watching the last 3-5 minutes of it pretty regularly for a while now, since we usually watch YJ TiVoed and we start recording early--and THAT WAS REALLY UPSETTING. I may actually have to watch the entirety of this week's episode because THEY'RE GOING TO FIX IT, RIGHT? RIGHT?

Also, ♥ARTEMIS♥. Also, I agree about Teen Titans Go Deathstroke being the greatest Deathstroke. Also, I thought YJ was actually cancelled? Or at least I heard that it's not on CN's schedule, which the poster seemed to equate to cancellation, but IDK, maybe they're not the same thing. I'm glad they're bringing back Teen Titans Go (in a slightly different form, of course), but I would be sorry to lose YJ, and even the three minutes of Green Lantern that we watch. Hee. You're right, if YJ isn't pulling in ratings, it's totally CN's fault for fucking with the schedule so much--I would have lost track of it long ago if we didn't have a season pass.

THEY BETTER. Jesus, that was HARSH.

I had heard it was on the bubble, but Uncle Google tells me you are correct and that it has in fact been canceled (as has GL:TAS). WHICH MAKES NO SENSE. WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT?

I'm happy that TTG is coming back, but given that it's going to be in chibi form, I have a feeling it's not going to be able to pull off the more complicated storytelling it did in its best arcs. Sigh.

What I know is that when the new episodes of YJ end it's gone. It was cancelled, we weren't even going to get the episodes we are now... but an outcry was loud enough. Also from what I know there is no damn good reason it was cancelled. I think it was getting fine ratings.

Artemis is my FAVORITE, and I was so happy for that episode. She just rules.

That sucks, because YJ is really good! And Artemis is awesome.

The theory that's been whispered around the animation industry is because Cartoon Network is making bank off of their own comedy cartoons and want to focus on them. DC Nation was done by Warner Brothers and while CN had an agreement to air the WB shows on their network (due to their parent company), they're obviously weren't thrilled about it. They basically had their own competition on their channel and they weren't going to see all of the money so they booted it out as fast as they could.

Ugh. I don't suppose there's any hope DC Nation will pop up somewhere on a WB channel, huh. Sigh.

Clyyyyyyyde. I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH. ♥ It makes me happy to read what other people have to say about it. Yes, i love it that Gregson didn't just let things slide, he made it clear how he'd behaved and the consequences it will have.

Also, this was the first time that Sherlock outright said what Joan does for him :D I loved that moment. Honesty, and she looked so surprised.

Clyde is so adorable! I hope he recurs!

And yes, consequences! So nice to see the show not forgetting what Sherlock did and letting him off the hook for it.
