I'm sorry if I'm acting strange, I just don't want this series to go out prematurely like most good shows do. Young Justice has the potential for least 5 or 6 seasons. Well, you and us millions. Yes, millions. The ratings don't account for overseas viewers, and they are plenty. And every day I see people tweeting about having started watching YJ and lauding its quality. But CN prefers to work on hypothetical scenarios: instead of saying "this show has a strong fanbase and good ratings (because it DOES) so let's keep it for as long as it is profitable" they say "perhaps we could have more ratings if we do this or that show", so they venture on a potential flop instead of investing on a sure thing. And if they are hell bent on killing a cash cow despite its ratings, then there's nothing we can do, besides bitching, as we all saw how that turned out. Besides, if they are having legal issues with DC licensed characters, then that's even another reason to kill the project. And that aggravates me the most. It's not like they'd cancel the show because of bad ratings; they'd be doing it in spite of good ratings. That leaves us painfully helpless.

Sooner or later CN is going to run their own network into the ground.
