So, JLU 3x5 is kind of fun.

3x6 has a couple good moments, but is very uneven and feels very clunky and the good moments are mostly separate from the actual plot.

I agree with you completely. I especially liked the Trickster, who was played by Mark Hamill, who played the same role in the Live action Flash series. This felt more like an episode of The Tick, though.

I'm watching 3x07 and 3x08 now.

OK, 3x07 was anvilly, but it had Speedy!

And 3x08 has Michael Rosenbaum as Lex Luthor !!!

And if the end credits of 3x08 are to be believed, 3x09 will feature the Legion of Superheroes and the Fatal Five. Cool!

I liked 05 and 07 quite a bit. It was fun to see all the Rogues in 05. According to IMDb, Alexis Denisof played Mirror Master, and as Tom noted, the Trickster even looks like Mark Hamill. OTOH, they got Orion totally wrong. I thought 06 was clunky, too. The story line is also way too similar to this season's Teen Titans arc. 07 had so many Jack Kirby shout outs, what with the super soldier serum and Captain America Nazi, the Newsboy Legion, and the frelling Hulk in his original gray. Even Green Arrow and Speedy were Kirby creations. The heroes present (GA, Speedy, Crimson Avenger, Vigilante, and Shining Knight) were five of the original Seven Soldiers of Victory, plus Stargirl, who is the step daughter of Stripesy, another member. Plus, there was even possibly an oblique reference to The Music Man with the Madison High School band (although the River City high school was about the only thing in town that wasn't named after old miser Madison.

Coming into this late -- what series are we talking about and where can I find it?

We're talking about new episodes of Justice League, which are airing overseas before they get shown in the US. But we're only talking about them hypothetically, as if we obtained those episodes somehow.

Oh! I hadn't realized until now that you were talking about one of those new-fangled animation shows, not a comic book. Which means I could have been following this all along....

OK, 3x07 was anvilly, but it had

Yeah, that was fun. "You wanted Superman!?!? Well, you got... the Crimson Avenger and my ex-sidekick..."

It was also nice to hear Nathan Fillion back as Vigellante.

3x08 alternated between funny, interesting and embarassing for me. Some of the Flash as Lex moments had me gritting my teeth while others had me dying. It was also interesting to see just how dangerous Flash could be when he had no regard for the safety of others. Though the writers can't seem to make up their minds as to whether John Stewart's ring is vulnerable to yellow or not. In the original JL pilot, he gets taken out by yellow gas and in this it was the yellow jello that was able to break through his shield. But the rest of the time he doesn't seem to have a problem with it.

I also loved Lex!Flash's "Well, at least I can learn Flash's secret identity... I have no idea who this is."

Yeah, I'm thinking that pulling the mask/cowl off thing only works if you're assuming that the secret identity is someone famous .

Right. He probably would've would've recognized Bruce, but Wally? Which reminds me. In 3x 05, they had Wally working Barry Allen's old gig in the police lab. His supervisor even looked like Barry. Huh?
