You have a wise friend, you should take his or her advice. There are three volumes on DVD, Justice League seasons 1 and 2 which center around the seven core members: Supes, Bats, Wondy, The Flash, The Green Lantern, The Martian Manhunter, and last but definitely not least Hawkgirl. Season 1 is where the water is still being tested, but it is still a good season. Season 2 is where everything kicks into overdrive.
Certain unforseen events occur in season 2 that cause the team to expand and thus the third volume is retitled Justice League Unlimited season 1. Larry, because you seem to be an old school DC fan, I must let you know up front, the Green Lantern they chose for the show is not Hal Jordan or even Alan Scott, but rather Jon Stewart.
When Bruce Timm first announced that the Green Lantern was going to be Jon Stewart at the San Diego Comic-Con, I was a bit skeptical, only because Stewart was always a secondary character in the DC Universe and to me the Green Lantern begins and ends with Hal Jordan. Needless to say, Timm and company made a very wise decision, Jon Stewart is one of the most developed charcters on the show. To be honest each of the core members are well developed characters with their own individual personalities, personalities that don't always go together.
One last note Larry, if you haven't watched the very underrated Superman: The Animated Series, then you are in my humble opinion missing out on the best interpretation of Superman outside of the comic books. If nothing else, watch the third and final season of Superman because it sets up certain storylines that carry over into the Justice League series.
