WATCH NOTE

Covers the three regular season-one shorts, excluding the separately catalogued Justice League: Gods and Monsters feature even where an episode database lists it as a special. Exact individual runtimes and complete silent/background appearance coverage remain unresolved. Premiere sources disagree between June 5 and June 8, 2015. A second season was announced but subsequently reported shelved; it is not additional released episode coverage.
