It's unfortunate that Green Lantern, in either animated form or live action, has failed to click with the masses. This second and ultimately final season not only brought us a solid dark arc involving the Anti-Monitor and the Manhunters, but saw Guy Gardner and Sinestro thrown into the mix as well. The show's longterm future seemed highly in doubt when it was abruptly pulled from Cartoon Network's schedule last fall, with no return date immediately announced.
The darker story lines explored by the show didn't exactly make it ideal fare for the Saturday morning time slot it was given, as the older demo it would ideally target isn't tuning in live at that time. In addition to Young Justice and Green Lantern: The Animated Series, Star Wars: The Clone Wars has also finished it run on the network, with Lucasfilm's recent announcement that it will be 'winding down' production on that series.
Dark Matter synopsis, per Cartoon Network:
In the season finale episode, the Aya Monitor returns to the dawn of time to stop all emotion and all life from ever existing. Now, Hal must find a way to stop her - while Razer realizes the only way to save the universe may mean killing the woman he loves.
