from a network executives point of view there is no benefit to producing new episodes because it has failed somewhere else already, if they were mad enough to greenlight it and it was a horrible failure then they would be fired for their questionable judgement, so its better for them to not take the risk. Network executives aren't that stupid. They would take the time to research the show and find out the successes of the show before deciding to incorporate it into their network. It's happened with a lot of shows.

And the success, if toyline based profits are irrelevant, is overwhelming for Young Justice.
