Young Justice is not actually cancelled yet. It's just hasn't been renewed so far.

Pretty sure they dont stream it since it doesnt look like theyre watching the HD remaster based on the 4:3 ratio

I disagree about a quality dip, but I do agree that Failsafe is absolute fire.

Mid season quality dip π€? The episodes before failsafe are perfectly fine.

My favorite child soldiers show after Attack on Titan. The "Justice" League is wrong for that π

Next few Young Justice episodes are really solid, right before a mid season quality dip, then from Failsafe on it's absolute fire.

i love this show but it was also a case of asking for a beloved show to come back and then wishing it didn't.

You skipped it being on DC's streaming service before everything moved to HBO

I think one of the most distinctive differences is that Xander is already 18 when he meets Anya. Buffy was 15 when Angel saw her and 16 when she got together with him. Two years seem not like much of a difference, but it actually is. Plus, there's that stalker-ish behavior that Angel had exhibited every now and then, as in following her, keeping tabs on her, though to protect her of course. Still, that dynamic isn't there with Anya and Xander, so it goes down a bit better. Also, Angel was already a grown man when he got turned, around 26 I think while Anya was probably around 18-19 when she became a demon, considering no one questions her being in the senior class lol

For context on YOung Justice's inital rocky start. The show was exclusively funded by Matel that made Toys for the show. However, since the people who really enjoyed the maturity and nuance of the show were teenagers and older, they didnt buy toys, causing Matel to pull out.
Eventually the show came back because DC had a streaming service where on demand shows are profitable.

so just some clarification you guys seem lost on, the council doesn't CHOOSE the next slayer, they just know the people the power will potentially jump to and keep tabs on them for when it does jump, its kinda like the maiden powers in rwby

It's never been implied that Cordelia is a virgin. Pretty sure she referenced hooking up with someone in a car early season 2. She just didn't sleep with Xander.

And yet, in this very episode, Anya recounts an event to the Scooby Gang that she told them happened 800 years prior. In this same episode, Anya also shared with them knowledge that apparently could only be gained from being alive for a millenium. Like the fact that Buffy, in all her years as a Slayer, had never faced a "true" demon. Info even Giles, Wesley, and the Watchers Council didn't know. The Normies never bring up Angel's "mental/emotional/functional" age when they go nuclear about the age gap between Buffy and Angel. They just harp on the fact that it's a 200-some odd year old guy with a teenage girl. Something they haven't done once when it comes to a 1000-some odd year old girl with a teenage guy.

Interesting point. I wonder how much of it is a gender double-standard and how much is due to how the show presents the two characters differently.
With Anya they made explicit that she's abruptly been fundamentally transformed into a teenage girl, where she is contending with unexpected and unfamiliar emotions and feelings that go with it. They also play up her 'fish out of water' awkwardness, and I think that gives the impression that her 1,000 years as a demon did not really translate into 1,000 years of life experience / maturing the way Angel's centuries as a vampire presumably should have for him.
Angel looks the Mayor in the eye and says "I've got a lot of years on you"; Anya is generally comic relief about wanting to go to Prom because of hormones or something -- they kind of have different implications for the power / maturity disparity when dating teenagers.

I noticed the double standard there as well for The Normies. They've been extremely vocal about the age difference between Angel and Buffy, but they're cheering on Anya and Xander.
Interesting...

Woooo FINally here at graduation day, Part 1..... still an amazing season personally my favorite is 2 but theres so much more after high school, we just have to get through college first. wooo amazing job normies of getting through season 3 - one more left and then you have a much harder job of deciding and going through angel and buffy, maybe coing chunks might be better, the good thing is hardley any spoilers of the two shows, until way later on, so i think yr good. anyway thank you so much still an amazing fun Normie Thursday

Thanks for the clarification, Andrew. I, like Amie, was WAY too excited and went looking all over for the 3x22 reaction Suraj mentioned lolol.

Over a thousand years old but nobody says anything about that. A lot of talk about age difference when a man is older like Angel or Wesley.

That's good. Well, at least I found a good way to stream some extra content. Star on Disney plus has some pretty good stuff.
Robert Lyle
2023-03-16 23:28:17 +0000 UTC
These are early uploads of the videos as they will be on YouTube, so that's effectively Suraj talking to the YouTube audience at the time this goes public in a few weeks, not the Patreon Premium audience of today. 3x22 is being released next week for Premium tier.

Hulu extended the contract. Buffy and Angel arenβt leaving Hulu anytime soon
Blake
2023-03-16 23:23:21 +0000 UTC
FYI..... since Buffy and Angel are coming off of Hulu, here is how you can stream them. They are on Disney plus, but not here in the states. So, if you use a VPN and "travel" to the UK; then open Disney plus and look under the Star section.

Suraj mentioned at the end of the Buffy reaction that they were going to go on to the final episode of season 3 and that it would be on Patreon - did he misspeak, did I misunderstand, or is Buffy finally getting a double drop on Patreon? It would be really nice to at least get them for the season finales.

Rana actually gave me a good idea at the beginning of this reaction. Can we have a poll to see which Normie we see on a stripper pole?

why the fans love faith (my edition): great actress, complex character, incredible foil to buffy. if batman fans can love joker, we can love faith

Re: killing Faith, the show is very clear that killing a human being - a souled being - a Rubicron that can't be uncrossed. Furthermore, Buffy's jurisdiction only extends to the unsouled/non-humans. Killing a human, no matter what, is a violation of the laws of war underwhich Buffy operates
