Young Justice is a DC Comic television series that first aired 3 years ago on Cartoon Network. It was well liked by young adults. But after its second season, Cartoon Network decided to go in a different direction and unfortunately for shows like Young Justice they didn't make the cut. Young Justice was critically acclaimed and beloved by many. It even received an Emmy Award for its animation in the episode Independence Day. And when it got canceled they tried to revive the show with crowdfunding but it fell on deaf ears.
However, like many shows that have gotten the ax, Young Justice has been acquired by the streaming service Netflix. Allowing fans old and new to watch the show and become addicted all over again. But with only 2 seasons available to watch it left fans salivating and clamoring for more.
If you've never seen Young Justice I'll give you a synopsis. It tells the story of the young heroes in the world of DC Comics, their struggles, and their need to prove their abilities. Young Justice featured a host of heroes but its main characters are Dick Grayson - Robin/Nightwing, Wally West - Kid Flash, Conner Kent - Superboy, Megan Morse - Miss Martian and Roy Harper - Red Arrow/Arsenal.
The shows creators have now answered the many prayers of fans who wanted the show to continue. Young Justice is getting a 3rd season. They are currently working on it and shopping it around to networks. And of course, Netflix was the first name to come up in the network pool of potentials. Honestly, it's the most viable of the markets. It's got great traction right now with the first 2 seasons, a huge cult following, and its the best place for the show right now. Netflix does a great job at marketing and maintaining interest in tv shows. Currently, they have the most eclectic arsenal of tv shows allowing everyone of any age to find something to watch with extreme satisfaction. From unique shows like Stranger Things to cult classics like Orange is the New Black to huge juggernaut shows like Luke Cage and Daredevil. And if they are continuing in the same vein as the original show I guarantee it will be a HIT!
However, it is currently in the marketplace and as of right now no network has picked it up. Doesn't mean it won't be picked up. It means they are finishing the show and possibly weighing its options with various networks. But if you ask me...Netflix is your network, not Hulu, not Amazon, not CW, NETFLIX!
An update will be posted when the show's official return is announced!
