5 Best Batman Shows

[@TetsuShima]

I love "the Brave and the Bold". It could be silly and campy like the 60's show, but also dark and tragic like the 90's cartoon. The fact both tones combined worked perfectly shows how underrated this masterpiece is

[@ezekielrayfield1512]

Agreed, I have a personal bias because unlike most people Brave and the Bold was my first introduction to Batman and the larger DC universe but I personally like Batman Brave and the Bold more than BTAS. Although I will admit that BTAS is objectively better I just have more nostalgia for Brave and the Bold.

BATMAN 🦇 BEYOND AND BATMAN 🦇 THE ANIMATION SERIES

[@The_Blue_Otaku]

Yeah as much as I love the dark tone of the 1990s Animated Series and 2004's The Batman, I adore Batman: The Brave and the Bold's campy tone inspired by the late golden age/early silver age comics and Dick Sprang's comic book artstyle

[@angryjack7963]

Let’s not forget the amount of dc characters that showed up in that show and I would say that it was my introduction to the dc universe even tho jl and jlu did it first

[@autisticwitch7581]

I get The Batman (2004) version of the Joker isn't for everyone, and his design is unconventional, but I like him. He's one of the few kid-friendly iterations of the Joker I actually find scary, and he had an incredible voice actor. His uncanny valley, animalistic, straight jacket design gave the impression of a creepypasta character.

[@markmagician2471]

After rewatching The Batman after so any years that design grew on me as an adult

[@drewjohnson-85]

As a kid who grew up in the 90’s let me step in here and argue that Matt Hagen is the best Clayface, a tragedy,a villain, a victim, an addict, an actor, and a monster all rolled into one, making a believable, but outlandish, and sympathetic, but dangerous villain.

[@Hami2x]

Until people started reviewing it on KZbin, I didn’t think many people liked or even saw “The Batman” show. It was my favorite iteration growing up and I’m glad it’s being talked about more now.

[@joshuarobinson6011]

I remember watching it every time it came on as a kid. And the Adam west one I used to watch after school but I also preferred the Batman. The intro is one of the few intros I don’t skip too

[@simplebutnotsolongname6642]

Brave and the Bold Introduced me to Blue Beetle and Plastic Man as a kid. That show and Justice League were great for showcasing different cast characters that not many people would’ve known of.

[@ShadowMidnight]

Honestly The Batman is my favorite because of the designs. Joker's my favorite because it's something different and I think it really suits him.

[@sjfaraoni]

I couldn’t disagree more with the idea of skipping the first two seasons of The Batman. Skipping those seasons would meaning skipping over a majority of both Ethan Bennett and Ellen Yin’s storyline, which are some of the best in the series.

[@Infinityflow0]

Totally agree. The first two seasons are the best imo.

[@eclipse9727]

The man says to skip the first two seasons and then maybe watch them later if you want to. ...so just watch the first two seasons? I don't see the problem. He's acting like the first two seasons are disease all because he's not a fan of the designs. He doesn't even mention the VAs, the designs themselves, or even the story they weaved within it. Massive L opinion for him. I'm glad it's in his top 5, but it feels like for him it was by a hair.

I LOVED "the Brave and the Bold" as a teen. I watched it whenever I could. Alongside DCUO, it served as my introduction to the greater DC Universe beyond the movies.

[@The_Phantasm]

I really loved The Batman. While not quite as good as Batman The Animated Series, some characters like Catwoman, Hugo Strange, Batgirl and surprisingly Firefly were handled much better than in BTAS. It also has one of the best alternative versions of Clayface and I absolutely loved Robert Englund as the Riddler and is probably my second favourite Riddler after Wally Wingert from the Arkham games. I do definitely disagree though about skipping season 1 and 2. If anything I think that season 5 is the weakest of the show. It just kind of turned into a team up episode most of the season with different Justice League heroes and lost some of the elements that made this show interesting to begin with.

[@shahabudinkarimi1810]

the batman 2004 series was the version of batman and all other characters in show I grew up with as a kid and it is the reason why I love batman

I really enjoyed The Batman granted that Joker wasn't for me when I was a kid but grew on me when I rewatched it as an adult. Also liked how Brave and the Bold where writers brought in loser characters to give them a chance to shine like Aquaman Blue Beetle for example.

The Batman S01 and S02 were the peak seasons of the series because it was unique. Instead of Commish Gordon and Dent, they went with Bennet and Yin which I liked a lot. It may be "slow" but I found it engaging especially the first two seasons. Following seasons made the show weaker because of constant teamups and more familiar threads (it's still nice though).

[@Frankie1120]

[@envoyeli2892]

Batman Beyond remains 1 of my favorite Batman series for so many reasons. It had great storytelling, writing, characters, stayed pretty faithful to the Batman mythos, while also not being afraid to add new content to the show due to it being set within the future. What I think I really loved about the Batman Beyond show the most was how it wasn't afraid to put a different spin on the Batman franchise. Like, it's said in the video, Terry's Batman seemed more like a Spider-Man type hero, but the show still worked amazingly since it didn't have to rely fully on the previous Batman shows and also tackled new concepts that previous Batman shows never really focused on like drugs being used as performance enhancers for school kids. The originality of the show is what makes it so refreshing since most Batman shows stick to the same formula, but Beyond wasn't afraid to be different and make itself stand out.

[@BaconNuke]

Honestly Batman Beyond is just so special because it *not* being Bruce meant we got something unique.. and them not just being like "yeah I'm an old rogue's kid with practically the same schtick" was so so nice that it felt like we actually saw what a continuation would be like unlike some shows that do the whole "future hero" thing by taking the current villains and.. maybe slightly changing them.. like "oh yeah this evil guy had a daughter.. and she more of an anti-villain.. zomg we are unique" Like the few times we did see an old rogue they still got a twist.. except Joker.. he acted like you'd expect.. but others at least had something.. Bane aged and was stuck in life support because of the venom drug.. Freeze is just an immortal head (despite.. biologically shouldn't be able to live without rest of his organs but "comic" logic).. Ra's stole Talia's body and.. tried to seduce Bruce for I forget what reason.. and that's it.. no one else shows up and closest to a "descendant" I guess for an OG rogue would be the Jokerz gang but.. they are far from actually being like the Clown Prince of Crime himself.. oh wait I think technically two of the gang members were Harley's grandkids but she herself wasn't involved.. think she even was shown scolding them at some point But yeah.. Harley's grandkids weren't recurring or big bads ever they just kinda.. existed which I kinda liked.. since it would be boring to have a Joker related character still be an issue for a Batman

Speaking as a 90s kud who grew up around guns, its not just access to them thats a problem. Its also abour the respect for the danger that comes with them. My family, uncles included, would get after me or others for even pointing toy guns at people. And they kept the guns locked in rooms or safes that only they knew the combination or knew where the keys were hidden.

Batman Beyond just hit hard for me as a kid. My childhood was messy but I still had to deal with the inconveniences and crap from school, so it felt more impactful than BTAS. The characters were fun, scary, and it imparted a polished grit that made it an instant classic for me. And most importantly, it showed an aging and ailing Bruce. I detest shows without end, consequences, or basic continuity. Batman Beyond as a concept alone subverts that entirely.

I don't think you know what a kid's cartoon is. This is batman afterall, and batman was never made specifically for kids. I'm so tired of the stereotype of people calling anything animated a "kids thing" just because it's a cartoon. I don't think any of the cartoons you mentioned on here are kids cartoons. If they were kids cartoons, they would be preschool cartoons. And yes, the only cartoons made for KIDS are preschool cartoons. And as far as I know, none of the ones mentioned on here are preschool shows. Otherwise, adults probably wouldn't enjoy them as much as kids. I can't believe people are still confusing kids cartoons with cartoons made for anyone of any age. There's a big difference between those 2 types of cartoons. ESPECIALLY when it comes to a character like batman. But anyways, my favorite one on here is the batman 2004.
