I didn't think there was anything jovial about the "just don't die".

I wouldn't be surprised if Dick became Nightwing very shortly after the end of season one - Disordered and Agendas set the groundwork for Dick to move on to his "own" identity, and don't forget Black Canary was privy to both those conversations. While I doubt she'd directly violate either of their confidences, I could easily see her suggesting to one or both of them that sitting down and discussing Dick's future would be a good idea. Say it takes a year for all that to happen. That'd leave enough time for Jason to be Robin for ~2 years, with ~6 months each to recruit and train Jason and Tim, before Legacy.

It'd be a bit hippocritical to ignore Jason after Greg Weisman's remarks about why they started with Dick, and given Brandon Vietti's involvement in Under The Red Hood and the positive reaction that movie garnered I can image there being some desire to see him included in some fashion. Even if it is just as a character who dies off-screen.

The personal effect of losing Jason on Bruce and Dick alone would be worthwhile, as would the effect on Tim (following in Bruce and Dick's footsteps is hard enough, how do you live up to a guy who died for the cause?) even if they leave him dead.

Counting Tula and Garth, there are a minimum of four missing Team designations (more if Blue Beetle isn't the newest member; I could see WG being B23 and LB as B21). Even if Wolf and Sphere have numbers, there's still two spots missing. Two people who appeared after season one and disappeared by season two (and apparently Legacy).

So I really don't think we can rule out the existence of a Jason Todd Robin. There's room there in every sense.

All of that said, however, IF Jason exists and IF he comes back in some fashion, I can't see it happening this season.
