They do drop ads for it occasionally, but the Toonami fan base right now is pretty solid and really vocal. We trend the shows on Twitter every Saturday as they air, and seem to be doing grassroots viewer ship well. I kinda hope that they get Sym-Bionic Titan another season, because it would give hope to a lot of the other shows that CN has been treating like shit.

Cool new interview with Greg Weisman on the finale and the series as a whole from Worldsfinestonline.com, it is worth the read. Also Greg Weisman gives out some spoilers to the League's and Team's roster during the time skip.

Some new screen caps from Endgame have already been released:

Looks to be like a very action packed episode.

Welp, called that Darkseid bit. I was worried they were going to settle and just say Godfried belonged to the Light only.
Hopefully it gives it enough oomph to renew in some form. Young Justice Unlimited, comic books, etc. Preferably a new show please.
I was ready for Wally to show up at some point near the end (because comic book deaths and all that, he could have been beamed to a pocket dimension for all we know). But that was a lot of Flashes for one show, and somebody had to go.
I like how they handled it with passing the torch to Impulse instead of just offing Barry. Even though he predates the others, this show's about Young Justice/Teen Titans, and offing Barry wouldn't have had as much effect.

Anyways as for my feelings on the finale, despite the slightly rushed feeling, I was still very satisfied. I like the open ended ending (even though is not getting renewed), it is one the elements of Greg Weisman's writing style that I really like, the view that stories never really have endings (I understand though how for some people they would not enjoy this philosophy for TV shows) not to say I don't also really enjoy stories that are more close-ended as well. As for the Cassie/Tim hookup I think that was always going to a last minute thing whether or not Invasion had gotten 26 episodes instead of the 20 they had, I think it was part of the open-ended elements (like Apokolips) that would have gotten follow up in a potential third season. As for Wally's death it was very sad and I think actually liked the suddenness of it kind of made it all the more tragic. And people who are blaming DC Comics for it are being ridiculously paranoid, as others have stated previously the comics division of DC has very little no control over Warner Bros. Animation and the major plot points of Invasion had been planned out well before DC's New 52. While I do wish Wally had gotten some more focus this season (and/or in addition to the season having had more episodes) I was still tragically satisfied by his death. Whether or not he would have been resurrected in potential future season I couldn't really say. I honestly could see Weisman and Vietti choosing to have Wally's death be one of the show's permanent ones (in a hypothetical future of more seasons) but also equally viable, them resurrecting him in a future (in a non-speedforce related way, mind you*). The end results of Artemis', Nightwing's, and Superboy's and M'gann's relationship was all very satisfying for me as well, Blue Beetle and his scarab's relationship end result was also extremely satisfying. I do hope the fan effort can get CN to reconsider renewing the show, or the show continuing in some form.
*Weisman has stated no Speedforce effectively ever. Also he stated that The Flashes can't time travel through the use of their speedpowers (meaning they need a machine like Bart).
He has stated this multiples times:

Also GTLAS had a great season finale as well, bittersweet but hopeful. Not much more I can really say. I loved how I could get this and YJ on DC Nation, a character-driven show and a plot-driven show, I really liked that variety.

Took the survey.
What I posted in the box at the end, to give an idea of what to write, this is really what they look at:

Highly respect the show. It was a fun ride since it aired in 2010. The writing and design work have been very influential.
I understand action and superhero shows tend to have a life expectancy of 2 seasons now (around 26 episodes each), when it used to be 4. However, it would be nice if the show re-brands itself, or spins off into other shows with the same style of format, where plots are more interconnected and meaty.
I watched the show grow from just a few fans like me keeping up with it, to people talking about it in places that usually don't mention television animation (review blogs like Destructoid and other video game-related sites.)
I'm usually against teen shows, because most times they're programming-mandated, but this series worked that angle perfectly so that it stayed mature for everybody.
I also liked how the writers had the entire DC Universe to work with, but made all of that history work for the show and its main characters. It wasn't just the adults patting their sidekicks on the back every episode, there were dynamics between everybody.
I looked forward to new episodes every week, and this was basically the only reason I watched U.S. cable again (Walking Dead was one of the shows I'd purchase too, but this show maintained my interest since day 1).
I'm not sure if WB has done so yet, but I look forward to purchasing season box sets of the series. The show would look really nice in some kind of foil sleeve or tin case format. Maybe a collectible pvc statue of some kind included?

I can see a lot of things being explored, like Jason Todd and the first Blue Beetle. Hope the cutscenes get outsourced to the same animation studios as the series. CG cutscenes would be okay I guess, but actual 2D animation would make my day.
With some editing, you could piece it all together like a missing season.
EDIT: I also see Aqualad's friends in those shots, so we could finally get to see what happened in the timeskip.

For a brief moment when I saw that this thread had been revived I let myself think that maybe just maybe the series had finally found a way to come back (other than the comics), alas. Fuck you Cartoon Network, 2 years later and I'm still angry about this. Fuck Teen Titans Go! too, it sucks and pisses me off that that stupid show is on the air and not Young Justice. Like I said 2 years ago, fuck you a billion times Cartoon Network.
