i was orginally going to write a very negative review. but thats probably unwarranted in hindsight. as the season progresses, it definitely gets better, with some big storylines developing. but be warned: there are some real duds in the season. the introduction of comedy and more dc characters is definitely a negative.
a lot of people seem to think the unlimited seasons are far better than previous seasons. but as in most comic to screen adaptions, i think too many characters and/or villians 'spoils the broth' (spider-man 3 is a perfect example). the comedy doesnt really work either. the previous seasons were great for drama and action. but we are now left with less of that given the show must make way for comedy and lighter episodes. saying that, when the drama/action episodes do come up, they are done with the usual skill and perfection.
on a whole, i wouldnt rate the previous seasons below the unlimited relaunch.

Yes, our favorite characters finally go "Unlimited." What can I say. Grade A material. Great stories. Great Characters. Great fights. Did I say great stories? Get this. U don't know what you're missing. Spoilers: The cadmus angle was a great addition to this show.From beginning to end the epic stories just keep making you want to see more and more till finally Green Lantern says "Who guards the Guardians? We've got it covered." Fade to black! Then We get a bonus Epilogue with Batman Beyond, where Terry discoveres that Bruce is...well you'll see for yourself. This is what cartoons are meant to be. For all ages.The only think kiddie about this show is the pencil work. Definately get it. Don't wait!!

This DVD set was purchased to complete my collection of animated series from the DC Comics universe. For anyone interested in collecting the "Justice League" series, please note that the first part of the collection is "Justice League of America" - Seasons 1 and 2. The JLA part of the series is followed by "Justice League Unlimited" - Seasons 1 and 2. In reality, all four 'seasons' comprise a 14-disc, 91 episode set of the Justice League series -- from the original 7-member league featured in the JLA episodes (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, and the Martian Manhunter) to the much larger, much broader collection of superheroes (including Supergirl, Vixen, Black Canary, Green Arrow, the Question ("Q"), the Huntress, and scores of others) who are featured along with the original 7 members in the JLU episodes.
Whether you just really enjoy well designed animation with good storylines, miss the Saturday morning hero cartoons of your youth (though these are WAY better), or subscribe to channels like the Cartoon Network so you can watch cartoons -- even when your kids aren't watching with you, you will truly enjoy owning this collection. (I own all four seasons of "Batman, The Animated Series," all three seasons of "Superman, the Animated Series," and the entire JLA/JLU series collection.)Justice League Unlimited - Season One (DC Comics Classic Collection)

This show is amazing. It's the most gripping and captivating show I've seen lately, and I'm not just talking about cartoons. The characters are mature and appear as they do in the comic, not as they should to 5 year olds. This show is smart, and deep, and funny and the animation is simply stunning. I was a pretty hardcore comic fan and the first few episodes I was a little dissappointed. What I had liked about the first 2 seasons was that the show seemed like a Justice League of America comic book. You don't really get that feeling the first two episodes, but before you really realize what's happening; you don't care. You see Flash and Mister Miracle rescue Kalibek on Apokolips, or Green Arrow duke it out with Wildcat. Captain Atom AND Captain Marvel both throw down with Superman and it's absolutely amazing! There's also a continuing plotline and increasing tension between the expanded Justice League and Cadmus Labs. The final episode in this series appropiately titled "Epilogue" ties together every single DC animated Series from Superman: The Animated Series to Batman Beyond. This show is jaw dropping and shouldn't just be watched by kids. Anyone can appreciate this title.
