The ending was a bit too "nice & easy" for me. Both sides just walked away?  I know this is a toon, but come on . . . I don't think that'd happen . . . and I know there'll be more "aftermath" that we won't see. I just feel kinda like it was too abrupt.
Me2. The ending also left me with that not-so-satisfied feeling. It was all too easy.

How could they both give though? Do you really think that Hawk would be able to just stand there in front of the machine/armour and do nothing?
Don't know exactly how I would have done it, so I suppose I'm not in the best position to make this point. I suppose part of my point is that it could have been resolved without depowering the suit. I just wish the brothers had found some way to move past their disagreement and work TOGETHER to solve the problem. That would have had a less partisan and, therefore, a more universally acceptable message.

I do have to say though, the big in the Invisible Jet when they're talking about who works in the Pentagon (was it the Pentagon?) made me chuckle. 
I also would've like to see more of Hephestus & Ares with Diana . . . those sceens were way too short. This is one of the times I'd like to have an hour to flesh it out some more . . . especially to give more of a clue as to Diana's anger/rage "of late".
Seems their really focusing on the new members as much as possible this season, and I can't blame them really. The episodes with only JL-era members seem to be more balanced in this respect.
And I wish that Invisible Jet scene would have been longer.

I saw this weeks episode just now. It kicked ass. Plus I laughed my head off.
I loved how they portrayed Circe so faithfully to the comics. That made everything perfect.

I missed this week's, big surprise with my track record, but I did see last week's. It seems CN shows last week's episode at 11:30CST on Saturday mornings. Course, I found it around 11:40 so I tuned in right when the bar fight was over and the three of them were walking out of the bar. Unfortunatly, I got nothing done tonight, that I originally planned on doing, like watching JLU and working. But I did get out and watch a movie with a couple friends, so all was not lost. But as I was driving to the one friend's apartment, I realized I was going to miss this week's episode, but we watched Monsters Inc, so that balanced it out.
It's a rented tux ok? I'm not going comando in another man's fatigues.

I really liked this episode. It was funny and featured more JLers than usual.
What's especially funny is that you KNOW Paul Dini worked the entire episode around keeping Zatanna in it for the full 22 minutes, as he is unabashedly in love with the character.

No, how Etrigan was reverted into a little baby when the Morgan Le Fay's son took over and got rid of the adults.

I've always figured Etrigan, as a demon, is impervious to dark magic. It's the only explanation of why Morgan didn't get rid of him a long time ago.
I'm clueless as to why he changed to a baby, though. I missed the part of the episode where he actually showed up.

I didn't think it was as good as the other JLU episodes, but I still liked "This Little Piggy." Complaints:
We got to see more JLU characters, true, but I would like to see more of the original cast. One of the few complaints I have about this season is that we haven't seen MM and Flash in a while. Don't get me wrong, I like seeing new characters, but I don't need Batman and WW in EVERY episode minus one each.
I've never been too keen on the Batman/Wonder Woman romance either. Seems like another ploy to get people into Wonder Woman, and a far-fetched ploy at that. If all the other superheroes can have relationships with non-superheroes complete with interesting dynamic, why can't she?
That said, Batman singing was great, though it would have been even better if he had to sing for the JLU or important people of Gotham. I could have sworn Circe was gonna make Bats reveal his identity to the world, but I guess I was meant to expect that at first.
More Zatanna. I'm in love with her too.

Granted I was also a big believer in this matchup, but considering that this romance was never planned and just kinda happpened with that kiss the writers meant nothing by, I feel this isn't the case.

I got nothing to back up what I said, really. But, c'mon! There's a Batman/Wonder Woman romance in the JLA comic book, which fans generally rave about but the writers squash; then, in the same episode in which they get rid of half of the GL/Hawkgirl romance, they have Bruce and Diana kiss, a kiss that Bruce Wayne steps out of character to admit was nice.
Just kinda happened? Really ?

Sounds about right, and a bit suspicious, but I still can't help and go back to the origin of this:  The scene was planned before the comics.  I don't know, maybe you're right.

Yeah. It was only after every fanboy and fangirl (fangirls moreso) made a HUGE thing about it in every forum within WB and DCs sights that they made this into something bigger.
You know, personally, I think it would be cool to have Ra's Al Ghul and his daughter make an appearance while continuing with the romance.
I'm sorry, but there's just something about a jealous Diana that tickles me pink. It's pretty much story ideas like that--That make me promote the relationship.

Y'know, I thought you meant the B/WW kiss during the JL series finale. The one in the Greek restaurant. I'd completely forgotten about that earlier peck. My apologies.
Maybe the comic book thing came from that one peck. It's very possible, and I wouldn't put it passed the comic book writers to take yet another thing from Dini's work.
I do like the idea of Talia making a return and putting a wrench in their romance, if just for one episode. Actually, I really like that idea. I mean, the romance is already happening, and that would make things interesting.
Mayhaps throw Catwoman in there too and make it another comedic episode. Mayhaps that's a dumb idea. The TAS guys could pull it off, though.

Even better. The story can't be FOCUSED around it though.

Dude, this week's ROCKED! I mean, it's no secret that I dislike both Supergirl and Ollie, but they made The Question exactly the way I hoped, and it turned out great. I'm happy!  Which is kinda bad because it destroys my image.

Voiced by Jeffrey Combs no less!  Didn't that one scientist dude in Supergirl's "dream" look like Ron Jeremy? It was OK, the last four minutes were good. I wasn't expecting Dr. Hamilton to turn out like he did. But I don't read Supes so I don't know if he's (loosely) like that now or not. The Teen Titans episode before that was fan-fucking-tastic. I love that style of animation and tonight it really worked on all cylinders; especially with the Robin/X fight near the finale.

The Question was perfect.
Ollie's voice was off. I'm not quite sure how do describe why. But, to me, it isn't even close to the voice I hear when I read a Green Arrow storie.

This has been one of my favorites in the season. It didnt even have Batman or Wonder Woman in it. The fact that Warner Bros. can have a media product using the DC license with this calibur is astonishing. The dialogue in this particular episode rivaled that of most comics that are available today. It's clever, smart, action packed and has DC heroes in it. I never really knew much about The Question but if in the comics he's anything like he is in this episode, I've become a Question fan for life.
JLU is my favorite show on air currently.
