Greg Weisman Teases Hope for Young Justice Season 3

Xiewin · 02-11-2016, 11:08 PM

Has anyone heard about this?

Greg Weisman thinks there could still be a future for Young Justice. While announcing that the critically acclaimed cartoon’s second season was available on Netflix Instant Streaming, Young Justice’s executive producer hinted that the show could see new life if there were enough interest.

Quote:

"RT! #YoungJustice S1 AND S2 now on Netflix! Want YJ S3? One of best things u can do is watch ALL eps over & over on Netflix. Or buy BluRays!"

Weisman clarified in subsequent tweets that while Warner Bros (or Netflix) hadn’t expressed interest in a third season, a strong showing on Netflix could motivate WB into action on a potential third season.

That doesn't mean anything, Weisman always hopes to continue all his canceled shows.

Nobody is going to foot the bill to pay for a new season of Young Justice, especially since its been canceled a few years now. Also given this is a DC property they would still have to get DC to agree to continue the series, they may not even care.

I don't know that much about Weisman, so I'm completely oblivious to whether or not he tried promoting something like this before.

However, it's an interesting read.

*CyberCubed* · 02-11-2016, 11:32 PM

Weisman still thinks he can make 6 Gargoyle series spinoffs...for a show that got canceled back in 1996.

He's currently writing for Star Wars Rebels so I don't think he will get to make Young Justice. He also said he doesn't work for DC anymore.

*NinjaPug* · 02-11-2016, 11:35 PM

He left Rebels after Season 1.

I would like a season 3, but in the meantime I'm going to rewatch seasons 1 and 2, because...damn those were good.

I really miss the DC Nation block of cartoons. It was great that for a little while there was some really awesome 'toons still on Saturday Morning. Alas, no longer.

*CyberCubed* · 02-11-2016, 11:37 PM

I'd find it hilarious if WB greenlits a Young Justice Season 3 but then doesn't hire Greg Weisman back to write it.

I don't know why the guy thinks he can do whatever he wants. He always gets fired or his series always gets canceled no matter what he does.

This is hardly the only series I would like to see get continued, though it would be nice to see a series I actually want to get new life.

*ZariusTwo* · 02-12-2016, 06:47 AM

Frankly, I pretend YJ season two did'nt happen. First series ended on such a happy and optimistic note and the second series was far too mean-spirited. It was'nt bad, but the tone shift was just not what I personally liked.

Wiesman's an eternal optimist though, gotta hand it to him.

Netflix is reportedly reviewing YJ stats and its said that if they like what they see it could lead to a third season: http://geektyrant.com/news/netflix-c...ntial-season-3

Its never going to happen. DC has to agree to it, they won't do it. Its a pipedream.

I don't blame you. I still liked season 2 somewhat, but it felt like there was way too much going on compared to the first season.

*CyberCubed* · 02-17-2016, 10:43 PM

They added way too many new characters and had no time to develop them all. Wonder Girl never even got a spotlight episode or a backstory. She was just there.

turtle1237 · 02-18-2016, 12:09 AM

If UJ gets other season after what 2 years? Perhaps theres hope for Thunder Cats? I can dream can I? The reboot never had a finish story.

*CyberCubed* · 02-18-2016, 01:11 AM

If it does get a third season, watch Greg Weisman end it on ANOTHER cliffhanger on purpose just so he can try to get it continued again for a fourth season or beyond.

He's known for being spiteful and purposely ending things on cliffhangers in hope he can return to it someday.

The show wasn't about her. The main focus has always been the main six, and there were the most focused ones on both seasons, with Blue Beetle and Impulse focused on for plot reasons.

Ehm, no. He's very diplomatic about the companies he works on and that's why he still works in the industry even today. He doesn't end things on cliffhangers, but he does leave loose ends because it's more realistic to him that way. Life doesn't just suddenly conclude. There's always more battles to be fought another day.

But I won't get in your way of your fanfiction about real people, bro.

Oh man, more Thundercats would be amazing, so frustrating how that was left.

A season 3 YJL would be so awesome, as long as the quality was maintained,and they got the voice cast. I would be all in.

Who knows maybe they could bring more shows back, I would love to see another season Futurama or at least a movie.

*CyberCubed* · 02-18-2016, 02:41 AM

Futurama was already revived like 3 times, let it rest.

We had four Futurama movies, and I think only one of them was any good and relevant to the overall saga ("Bender's Big Score"). The revival seasons were strong, but I think they've told all they can with it now.

Are you kidding? They could do so much more with Futurama, and that comes from David x Cohen himself!
