STARMAN(Ted Knight) made an appearance on BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD.
"Crisis 22,300 miles above Earth".
I believe he had one maybe two lines.

Looking forward to this new animated series especially seeing characters who never appeared in a cartoon before like: Space Cabbie and Constantine.

It could have been worse- they could have used that god-awful Nickelodian/Disney style animation everybody seems to be using these days.

I actually don't mind the animation style for this show even though it's not my favorite. Definitely has a vibe of being aimed at a younger audience but the designs for most characters don't look too bad. I wish the episodes were one half hour story rather than two shorter stories but I'll still give it a chance.

Any news about Detective Chimp yet?

Does this have a date yet? It's not indicative of much but the current Happy Meal toys are for this cartoon:

If it's on CN I have a feeling the episodes will be really hard to find.

I just hope the show sells toys or else it's going to be a pretty short run.

From that trailer this isn't the Young Justice replacement I was hoping for

Deftones

You don't need a replacement. Young Justice is coming back.

Deftones

Bump up. This starts Friday. My DVR is listing it as an hour episode.

I was over the pond recently and caught a couple episodes. It's not the JLU replacement I was looking for. It's less adult and more kid focused.

Just as long as it gives me a B:TB&TB vibe I will be pleased with the show.

I liked it. The one hour special was obviously split into 15 minute increments but they were all connected. Liked the explanation for Constantine's accent. Wonder Woman goes back to her roots and gets tied up with her own lasso. Didn't even recognize Hamill's voice on ST. And in the second part when they brought out their secret weapon, I was wondering why they'd use someone with that weakness, and they actually addressed it.

Still very Trinity focused which I guess makes sense, though I'm not a huge fan of Wonder Woman's overall design.

It's very true to its name. The vast majority of it is action, which I'm a bit surprised by because they allegedly tried to tone down the fighting in the current Powerpuff Girls show.

I thought this first hour was a pretty good start. It got several different heroes into action and the designs look better in motion than expected. There are some idiosyncratic animation designs for a couple characters but nothing I cannot deal with. Overall it was fun with smooth storytelling for superheroes.

I am a huge Captain Marvel fan, so bringing Shazam and Black Adam into it was nice to see in the first episode. It looks like Martian Manhunter will be comic relief on JL Action. It wasn't aimed at children as much as I expected.

Let us pray that Cartoon Network decides to keep it in a stable slot.

What is going on with Wonder Woman's hair? She needs a different haircut or something.

I missed it. When will there be a replay?

Charter has Cartoon Network On-Demand so I will see if they will have it.

Update:I finally watched it on Direct TV On-demand.

Looks a lot like The Batman animated series.

If my TIVO's schedule is anything to go by, the next episode is bizarrely scheduled for sometime next week in the early morning. Though trusting any of the guide data for Cartoon Network is a fool's errand.

fujishig

Yeah it's like 7:30 am on Saturday mornings, premiering on Xmas Eve. On one hand, as a kid I'd wake up super early to watch Saturday morning cartoons. On the other hand, it already seems like they're trying to bury it. I don't think I even saw a commercial for the special, if Deftones hadn't reminded me I'd probably have missed it.

My three year old son loves the show, though. We'll be watching, even after they move it to 5am on Thursdays or whatever crap CN is going to pull.

They also lost Pokemon to Disney XD, which is also going to reboot Spider-Man. So they'll have Yokai Watch, Pokemon, all the Marvel shows, and all the Disney cartoons, you'd think CN would hold the DC properties in higher regard.

I saw the first two so far. I really liked the Cabbie episode.

fujishig

So far my DVR has caught the original multi parter, then a repeat, and now episode 12. It completely missed the space cab episode and who knows what else. Not sure if it's my dvr or horrid Cartoon Network programming or metadata or what.

Deftones

Yeah mine has only caught the 4 parter too.

PhantomStranger

As I've said before, Cartoon Network has by far the least reliable guide data of any cable channel. They purposely do it to mess with DVR viewers.

I think I've missed this week's episode.
