    For an airdate watch order: bit.ly/watchdcau UPDATE: Justice League Infinity - Takes place before “Justice League vs the Fatal Five” P.S. I have no idea what happened at 25:36 but I can’t get it to not export like that so have fun (Also, yes, “Justice League” is supposed to be in white font, not yellow)

Im probably gonna re-watch brave and the bold/watch it linearly for the first time. Sometimes I try not to watch every show. I rather be on KZread and learn about other shows so when I'm truly bored I can pick a random show to watch. So I really appreciate this channel doing what it does. Have a nice day 💫🤘

    @@slik_sean6346 I don't know what you're talking about. Do you mean the episode Epilogue? It has nothing to do with Return of the Joker. Ms. Martian takes Tim's form in JL vs the Fatal Five which means he's still active. Harley also appears in that movie which means the flashback scenes in Return of the Joker can't have taken place yet. This is why it shouldn't be canon, because it fits so poorly into the rest of the canon. Tim goes missing for weeks, Batman has dozens of heroes he could call on to help him but he doesn't call any of them. Like dude, I'm pretty sure one of your magic friends or Flash or Superman could find Tim pretty quickly. Tim was also a member of some version of the Titans bit none of them seen to care about their teammate going missing. Instead he calls on Barbara who hasn't even been active as Batgirl since the New Batman Adventures. The last time we saw her she hung up her cape and went off to school in Mystery of The Batwoman so it seems highly unlikely that the whole scenario could have played out the way it did. It just makes no sense in the larger canon.

This one has actual detective work and riddles. 2) A Mr. Freeze story about Mr. Freeze bringing a new ice age to Gotham City in order to bring Ice Age animals (like the mammoth and sabre-tooth) back to life. 3) A Mad Hatter story about him trying to take control of Gotham City with hats and gas. Alice is mind-controlled in this one. 4) A Penguin story involving the Penguin stealing some cat statue that Catwoman was obviously interested in. (I remember very little about this one)

    Also, holy crap, I just noticed that James has the awesome JL snowglobe as a part of the new background display! I was really ready to shell out the money for that this past Christmas season, but forgot. Those things are super rare, but, if anyone is going to have one, it may as well be James!

    Funnily enough, I think the Gorilla Grodd episodes were some of the only JL episodes I DID have on tape. I think Cartoon Network had a Justice League marathon once, so I just filled up a tape with as many episodes as I could. Also, Zeta fans are even worse off in Australia. We still haven't got a DVD release here! It and Static Shock are the only two DCAU shows we can't get. A few years ago they finally released Batman Beyond on Blu-Ray here, so I thought that maybe we'd finally get Zeta, but nope! 😣That show was my first experience with the pain of having a beloved show cancelled.

    Just for fun: here in brazil, the dcau shows as been reprized so many times, that they became classics for 90s and early 2000s kids. and static shock is a phenomenon, so much that, after batman, it's the dcau favorite super hero for many people.

I think it was supposed to be Thursdays at 10 P.M, I'd come home to watch the next episode (I set the VCR to record) and to my dismay it was samurai jack or some shit. I eventually gave up and didn't watch the show until it was released on DVD.

If I don't end up, ya know, rewatching BTAS or JL... again... I think I watched the Justice League: Secret Origins 'movie' three or four times a week when I was a kid, fake movie be damned. Gothan Girls was delightful, although I did not know it was also the Birds of Prey DVD! (Which I actually really enjoyed, for all its many flaws)
