Ratrangerm wrote: One other comment I'll add: It's possible the time skip didn't help to attract new viewers. The first season provides a good amount of backstory for most of the Team members. The second season, the focus has tended to be on Blue Beetle and Impulse, with not as much focus on others who have been introduced.

I know Greg has said that the five-year time skip was something he wanted to do, but when you have that, you do tend to miss out on the chance to get a backstory in for more characters you want to introduce or make more prominent. And standalone episodes. None of which have happended on season 2.
