cartoon network still hasn't aired it, but thankfully canada's YTV aired it this week, so the 3-part season 2 finale "star crossed" is now available for download at suprnova.org.
I've been looking forward to this for months, ever sinceI read the synopsis at tvtome.com. long story short: hawkgirl's home planet of thanagar comes to earth - she must decide who she'll side with, her true homeland and people, or the planet she's protected these last few years alongside the justice league.
even though I knew the plot, I wasn't expecting it to be this good. lots of twists, good fight scenes, and a lot of things they've never done on this show before.
namely

at one point, everyone's secret identity is revealed and for while everyone fights as their "mild-mannered" identity.

anyway, what makes it so good is that the whole 3-part episode seems to be based loosely on "tower of babel" - but I'll refrain from the details of the original. I'll just say, some events and characters are changed, but the whole of the show played out just like babel. even the ending scene in which one member of the league is

overall it was an excellent episode - if and when cartoon network airs it, expect some slight edits: green lantern gets to say "kiss my ass" in this ep.

are you serious about JLU being more "super-friends" and having no more 2-parters? that's super lame. if this show gets all sweatbeads and speedlines like titans, I'm never watching again.
In addition to what Baghead mentions, I'd like to add that at the conventions that Justice League's producers/directors have appeared, they've made it seem like the show will revolve mostly around the guest stars, rather than the main characters. The impression I got from the convention articles was that it would actually revolve around guest stars even more than the '90s X-Men cartoon. It will even cut down the cast in certain episodes to just the ones that make sense around the guest star, like pairing Batman and just a couple of other heroes with Zatanna, whose plot will apparently be continued from Batman: The Animated Series.
The current list of guest stars I've seen:
Zatanna
Supergirl (multiple appearances?)
The Atom
Booster Gold
The Question (they went on quite a bit about his creepy voice, which is Jeffrey Combs from Re-Animator, Deep Space Nine, and Enterprise)
Green Arrow
Mongul
Circe
Ares
Chronos
Amazo
Wildcat
Black Canary
No Nightwing (in either season)
Here's one of the reports I've seen, but it's not completely comprehensive. But it does include the new Justice League Unlimited promo image, in case any DC Universe fans recognize any characters that I haven't mentioned. Since I'm not really a big DCU fan, I really don't recognize half of the extra characters in there.
