To second the "MUST SELL TOYS!" philosophy that often goes in these cartoons, it's exactly why Young Justice got cancelled as a show.

It had splendid levels of viewerships and was generally considered the best of it's kind.

It only had one single problem.

It was too popular.... with girls.

And in the eyes of Corporate Executives(.tm), "Girls don't buy toys".
As in, that's -exactly- what the creators of the show got told when their show got cancelled.

A female sibling of mine who was a fan of the show back then was a bit miffed when she thus learned -why- the show was cancelled.
