I'm dying to know what other people thought of this week's JLU. I thought that the scene with Ace was particularly well done. Poor little mite. I was also amused by the real appearances of the RF gang.
Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
When I saw it, I was thinking "Restless."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The very last shot, "Did you see that?" was the same as the opening shot of the very first Batman: TAS episode, "On Leather Wings".

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The very last shot
It's the end of the Dini/Timm-verse as we know it.

Like I need a hole in my head
Hey, just a quick pimp of my friend's comic-rec journal: jinx_says over on LJ. He puts up scans and different issues of comics that he recommends, and he takes requests as well.

The DC Animated Universe is done for good. It began in 1992 with "Batman: The Animated Series", was created by Bruce Timm. It had continuity with "Superman: The Animated Series", "Batman Beyond", "Justice League", and tangentially Static Shock. Paul Dini wrote many of the best episodes on these series.
There's also "Teen Titans" and "The Batman" cartoons, but Timm/Dini weren't involved with them, and don't share continuity.

I thought Timm was involved with Teen Titans until this season?

Huh. He was. I didn't realize that. It's not part of the regular continuity, though.

That's true, but it did play off continuity from time to time. Like the Dick Grayson hint about Robin, or the Robin/Speedy relationship or just sticking so closely to the original Wolfman storylines. It coyly winked at DCU continuity.
