25th Anniversary of Batman: The Animated Series

[David Walton]

BTAS' Tim Drake was basically Jason Todd in all but name.

My top five are definitely:

1. Almost got'Him
2. Heart of Ice
3. Harley & Ivy
4. Two-Face
5. Trial

special mentions to: Pretty Poison and The Cat & the Claw since I love Poison Ivy and Catwoman.

Jason Todd wasn't in BTAS

He was working undercover as "Tim Drake".

This is pretty much true... I think it was said they did that as they didn't want people expecting him to die at the hand of the Joker... Which is funny in retrospect as what Joker did to him is kind of worse...

I think the show is great but I also think it is heavily overrated. There were a lot of miss episodes and not many good middle ones. There were great ones though. It will be my 3rd fav DCAU show.

Things I liked
- Poison Ivy / Harley Quinn - It was great comedy with that duo
- Harvey Bullock
- Mr. Freeze's origin.
- Robin's episode
- The art style until the Superman show came into play.
- Bruce actually being a person until Season 4
- Alfred
- The Baby Doll episode
- The Joker


Things I disliked
- Tim Drake (It was really Jason Todd)
- Batgirl - felt she was annoying
- Batman in S4 and literally Bruce and Batman having the same voice.
- The art style in S4
- Batman in My Basement
- The lack of role for Summer Gleeson.


Things I was neutral one that people disliked or liked
- Nightwing's mullet.
- Babs and Bruce dating. I have no issues on that. Both are adults.
- Catwoman
- Kevin Conroy - I think he did a great job but idk I prefer Bruce Greenwood.

Great show but I think it is just highly overrated by fans and that's cool

Batman Beyond, and the First two seasons of JL but both have their flaws too.

There's no perfect animated show.

Out of all DC Animated shows for me the best is Brave and the Bold. It was the best mix of DC Lore

I didn't say much in this thread haha, but this show is what originally what got me into Batman as a kid, and later into comic books in general. I will say that when it was good it was GOOD, while the show was for children, it didn't get into the "kids are stupid they'll watch anything we throw at them" feeling that a lot of animated properties based on superheroes have(especially as of late). However, on the flip side, when the episode was bad, it wasn't just simply boring...it was BAD. While not complete dribble like the humor style of "lolsorandom" that seems to plague things today, but it is pretty close...like REAL close...

Well, I missed this news completely:

Batman: The Animated Series being remastered on Blu-ray.

[godisawesome]

This is the show that got me onto Batman as well, and I'm going to agree with the other guys who see Almost Got 'Im as one of the best episodes. We even did a podcast over it: https://www.buzzsprout.com/132209/58...-almost-got-im
