The episode still featured Huntress and Black Canary, but also included their "dates" TheQuestion and GreenArrow.

** After ''TheBatman'' began airing during the ''Unlimited'' phase, all major characters from that property other than Batman himself were suddenly verboten in ''JLU''; this was referred to as the "Bat-Embargo" by fans. Similarly, the villain Black Manta was banned when ''Comicbook/{{Aquaman}}'' [[DevelopmentHell seemed]] a go for a series, as were all ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' characters. Fortunately, DC has [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters plenty of characters to use]]. As a result, viewers got to see more minor and obscure characters, like Deadman, Warlord, and the [[SevenSoldiers Seven Soldiers of Victory]], who otherwise would have probably been ignored.

The "Bat-Embargo," which was a moratorium on using certain Batman-related characters after the premier of ''TheBatman'' and the production of ''BatmanBegins'', meant that Batgirl had to be written out of the episode and the story was re-written and expanded into ''Double Date''. The episode still featured Huntress and Black Canary, but also included their "dates" TheQuestion and GreenArrow.
** The commentary for ''The Return'' reveals that, when ''Starcrossed'' was scripted, the writers did not know where Shayera had gone after leaving the League. One theory was that she had become the resident guardian angel of a small South American village, and another was that one of the victim planets of the Thanagarians had found her seeking revenge (This story was later used in the ''Unlimited'' episode ''Hunter's Moon''). Eventually they decided that she had sought sanctuary with Dr. Fate, and this lead to the double meaning of the title ''The Return''.
