Please note. After watching these episodes on Boomerang, they really need digital remastering. The picture quality  washes out and artifacts are prevalent. Also, if possible, the extra perspectives should include discussions with the original Hanna-Barbera creative minds behind the Superfriends and not just today's current comic writers. Otherwise, it's always great to see another animated DC series released from this era. Hooray!!!

....one of the last bastions of conservative programming...

I thought it was a 70's cartoon show written for children. Twenty years later, Justice League's target audience was probably the 16-40 crowd. Why must they always compare?

WB should focus on documentaries with original voice actors, directors, and artists than today's comic writer's explaining their interpretations of superheroes, see New Adventures of Superman and Batman documentaries. Although, the Filmation segments were quite informative.
