* GrowingTheBeard - This trope is expressly discussed in the Season 2 DVD. The producers felt that season one of ''Justice League'' was a competent production, improving as it progressed, but that it was in season two that the show became what they always wanted it to be. Many of the changes came about from their own disapproval and from listening to fan complaints. Bruce Timm explained that much of Season 1 was just trying to get the series started and they ended up rushing things where they should have taken more time. Among other items discussed:
** They made a policy decision to avoid "[[TheWorfEffect Super-wimp]]," which had a much larger effect on the first season than they had realized. They also wanted to increase the scale of the stories with larger backgrounds, more character models animated in critical scenes, bigger stakes, a visceral sense of physical contact and added emotional conflict even between the heroes. The rationale was "the show doesn't necessarily have to be ''dark'', but it has to be ''intense''" in order to make sure viewers were engrossed.
** They reintroduced a lot of the continuity from [[BatmanTheAnimatedSeries BTAS]] and [[SupermanTheAnimatedSeries STAS]], and some {{Call Forward}}s to BatmanBeyond, that had not been included in season one. Originally they wanted JL to stand on its own merits, but understood fans are generally watching the show to see their favorite characters.
** They began laying the groundwork for many future story arcs, while the first season had episodes largely self-contained. In particular, many hints about Hawkgirl's history would come to a head on "Starcrossed," the season finale.
** Bruce Timm said that he was often spurred on by MelBrooks advice to [[RefugeInAudacity Ring the Bell]]; if a scene seemed like it might be too much and you were having secound thoughts, do it anyway and ''make it bigger''. It was the official mantra of the production team that "Good enough isn't good enough." The animators had specific instructions to work until a scene was good enough and then make it better.

* MotiveDecay:
** Sinestro appeared in ''SupermanTheAnimatedSeries'' and ''Justice League'' solely in pursuit of his vendetta against the GreenLanternCorps, and he only worked with other villains in pursuit of that goal. However, in season three of ''Unlimited'' he works for profit and world domination/saving alongside the Legion of Doom even when it has nothing to do with the Corps.
** Bizarro in ''SupermanTheAnimatedSeries'' was a complicated character whose attempts to do good resulted in destruction because of crippling mental disabilities. In ''Unlimited'', however, he transforms into his comic counterpart ([[MultipleChoicePast One version of his comic counterpart, anyway]]) who simply has a bizarre tendency to reverse the inention of words and emotions, confusing "like" with "hate" and "good" with "bad."

* CompleteMonster - Too many to list. It is [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids ostensibly]] a childrens show, but considering the lines that some of the characters cross...ugh. Even one-time villain John Dee murders his ex-wife [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel in a truly horrific way]], which is nothing compared to the tortures Darkseid or Mongul unleash on Superman (They do not just hurt him physically, they ''torture'' him, they drive him through things no human, or Kryptonian, should ''ever'' have to suffer). Then there is that guy that [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking stole forty cakes]]. [[AndThatsTerrible And that's terrible]].
