There's a Blu-ray copy on Amazon listed as Young Justice Outsiders: The Complete Third Season. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Z74DK2L Hope that helps, sadly no season 4 Blu-ray as far as I know.

I do enjoy seeing new characters get introduced in the show. I'm only concern with season 3 & 4, is that they tend to over shadow characters form previous seasons. I would've love to have seen more of Wondergirl and Tim Drake Robin and their new established relation ship, but along with the smaller budget, all is left is digital cardboard cut outs lol (sigh)

One big thing about this season that people dislike, without spoiling, is without the child censor they could fit certain themes and aspects that are comic accurate but incels think are “woke”

There are a lot of people who loved season one and that original team, and didn't even like season two at the time for being *too different*. It was honestly only truly fully loved in retrospect after the cancellation. Personally for me, season two has always been my favorite season. A lot of the hate for season 3 came in the back half of the season when there was a slow run of episodes. The first half of season three aired in four batches of episodes, the first three episodes aired together, then the next three the following week, then the next three after that, before the final week aired the last four before the mid season finale. The pacing was incredibly fast and at the time people really liked the first half of season 3. After a few month break, when the show returned, it came back with single episode a week pacing, and aired once a week, and the mid portion of season 3, from around 14 through 20 is without a doubt the weakest point of the series for most people including myself. It really picks up for the final batch of episodes and season 3 ends strong. But season 3 not being liked tends to come from that slower pacing batch of episode right in the middle that is the weakpoint, but it was originally really liked for the first half, and the ending is also typically enjoyed.
The other thing as you guys brought up, as *was it hated for stupid reasons*, kinda. And I want to say right now to everyone else in here who isn't season 3 fans, I am not saying this is you at all (there are plenty of reasons to not enjoy season 3), just that there were (and continue to be) a vocal minority in the fanbase that despised how progressive the show was. The show was always progressive and political in what it talked about using superheroes as metaphors, characters like M'gann and what her storyline was a metaphor for with racism, changing Aqualad to Kaldur instead of Garth (Garth the white guy is the comic book Aqualad), Artemis being half-Vietnamese and that being a part of her identity, Conner's storyline with the genomorphs and how it as well is a metaphor for real life, as well as the metahuman trafficking, political stuff... the show was always progressive but Cartoon Network never allowed it to be obvious or plain. After the show came back under DC Universe (a failed streaming service) and then HBO Max, it no longer had those restrictions and they got more obvious and clear about being progressive and being less subtle. So a portion of the season 3 hate was people hating it for being *too woke* when really it was the showing doing what it would have done from season 1 if it had been allowed on Cartoon Network.
Also there were major budget issues during season 3, so at times the animation falters, but they do their best to make sure it never falters during big huge moments and to try to use the lack of budget stylistically when they could.
All of this to say is... Young Justice season 3 is still really good! It's the weakest season because there is a chunk in the middle where the pace is slow and the story isn't as good (you guys doing it 2 at a time though means you'll probably breeze through that section in a couple weeks and not even notice unlike a month or so in the real time) during that chunk, but the beginning and the ending of the season are stellar as always. And season 4... season 4 is excellent and actually my second favorite season. The way I look at it, season 1, season 2 and season 4 are all 10/10 seasons of tv and just about the peak of adaptions for the DC Universe. Season 3 is an 8/10, with 10/10 sections, but it just isn't as strong as the other seasons. But it's never bad, just doesn't live up to the insanely high bar as the other seasons. Hate for this season tends to be overblown due to a particularly slow section in the middle of the season, and some relatively stupid "YJ so woke" angry fans.

My guess would be they wanted to showcase of other magical characters other than Raven cause yea Ravens cool & powerful but if you involve her in a story there gonna do something with her dad again. I like seeing Zatanna be on the team in this show & Dr Fate, we got enough magic people & then we got Superboy being the star fire of the team he just can’t fly or shoot fire lasers

Something that is glossed over unless you really pay attention is that Tim Curry isn’t voicing G Gordon anymore because of his health was declining. The new VA is good but I miss the Curry of it all😭😭😭

One of the main complaints of season 3 is very much the lack of X character by some fans.
Even beyond season 3 a portion of the fanbase just seem to staunchly hate when characters that aren’t the original 6 get heavy screen time. This was a thing back when season 2 first came out, I remember the fan criticisms way back in the day.
For better or worse this series writers have never been afraid to shake up the status quo, and a lot of fans do not like how they didn’t just get more of what season 1 was

The new Aquaman and Black Lightning are both voiced by Khary Payton, he voices a lot of people this season if you can recognize his voice. Also Beast Boy in this season is voiced by the same actor who voiced him in the OG Teen Titans and Teen Titans Go.

While I enjoy the first two seasons more storywise, I do appreciate the more adult themes in the latter two seasons because of the move to HBO.

fun fact: the first letters of the titles of all the episodes in Seasons 3 and 4 spell out a sentence that is indicative of what each season's story arc is. super hyped for your reactions! your Seasons 1 and 2 reactions have become my 'play in the background while i work on other stuff' videos xD

I think the best way to put this season is that for 50 years DC has tried to make people care about the Outsiders and Geoforce and it’s impressive to continually fail for 50 years and still keep trying.
There’s good stuff in here, but as ya can see throwing away the old cast for a new cast every season gets tiring by season 3.

My complaints aren't with the season as a whole, but there is a run of episodes that just feel like a bunch of filler or don't have the same impact as almost all the episodes from the first two seasons. I think the first few episodes are good and the back half of the season is fine but the some of the other episodes lack impact or teeter on being boring imo.
nah but fr i dont think this season is as "bad" as ppl make it out to be.
