Paul Dini has noted that Pamela's sterility was inspired by Denny O'Neil's "Poison Tomorrow." "I picked up on it," Dini remarked. "If her body rejects all infection or outside contamination, her body is a self-contained little hyper-immunity system, so she can't get pregnant." Paul feared that Fox may pull the plug on the episode due to this subject matter. "I thought Fox would never even let me hint at her sterility."

This was an astounding story. A villain walking away from the life and embracing another into sanity. Also the other motives towards Pamela not really done being Ivy and it was very sad that she's made a family in her own sick twisted way. The ending being a twist as well was genuine. Btw, actor/voice-over Richard Moll passed away. More episodes with him as Two Face should be coming soon.

[@kyletonarella4353]

Your reaction to Ivy's "kids" was perfect on how messed up this episode is.

[@123haninhk]

I really love this episode. A horrifying episode but sad at the same time. I always cracked up whenever Grayson said, “Lady. You creeping me out.” Pamela genuinely wanted to have a family but on her own terms. Even Batman is sympathetic at her. I wish Eric and Rick reacted to this episode because of the horror.

[@vinsanity40k]

for a "kid's show", this series really put out some disturbing episodes 😄

[@mikechicago6200]

Yesterday we lost Richard Moll from Night Court and aka Harvey Dent at age 80....he will be missed

[@thirteeneighteenfive]

It's interesting, in the DC Comics it's established that plant life is part of 'The Green' but mushrooms and fungal life are part of a separate force called 'The Grey' (and animal life is 'The Red'). The Grey has actively been at war with The Green at various points, trying to supplant plant life.

[@AzmiAb]

Love this episode! In the end you can see she really did love this life she built, somewhat. This episode has opened the possibility that every time we see Ivy going forward could be a fake, and she is safe away someplace.

[@DCComicsGamer]

I really love this one and it kicks the really strong Season 2 off brilliantly. A fun mystery that's both strangely tragic and deeply creepy in parts. Even now a shiver still runs down my spine when I hear that "... mommy?"

[@CookieeDeluxe]

19:10 I know it's comics/cartoons but humans and ants do have very different biology

[@jonasquinn7977]

So I’m not sure if this counts as a spoiler or not because it’s never actually brought up in the show but according to a comic set in the DCAU this is the last appearance of the real Pamela Isley. Every appearance of Poison Ivy after this is a clone made to distract people while she settled down somewhere.

[@SellavinAtoms]

I love seeing your reactions to these Episodes, Unfortunately I just discovered this morning that the Voice active for Two face Richard Moll Has passed away at the age of 80.

[@Nunsdadumstve]

RIP to another actor from this great series🥲we’ll miss you harvey dent

[@johnnysparkle]

A DCAU tie-in comic of the later Batman Adventures (Volume 2) comic series suggests that this is the last appearance of the "real" Poison Ivy and that the revamped version seen in The New Batman Adventures was merely another copy produced to keep Batman off her trail, whilst she went into hiding for good.

[@jp3813]

Although all of the characters got a revamp, and her revamped version is featured in flashbacks back before Harley even met Joker.

[@88gschannel39]

At 9:16 I was minorly traumatized by this scene when I was a kid. Once I heard they had Batman hear the kids, I looked at the TV and out loud said, " Buckle up fellas, this gets intense."

[@SDHero]

My personal favorite episode of BTAS just for how dark and creepy it allows itself to be!

[@roryreviewer6598]

When I watched this as a kid this episode creeped the fuck out of me.

[@N00bkillr693]

The perfect episode to watch on Halloween weekend

[@grassyhill5830]

She controlled superman with her pheromones before

[@connorwood9211]

We all know what Ivy meant by "raw materials" right?

[@CaesiusX]

13:56 Correct *Calvin,* water is not an element, it is a compound. 😎👍

[@shinisaber]

h20 mofuka

[@shinisaber]

by the way to be clear I'm agreeing with you

[@CaesiusX]

@@shinisaber I appreciate the clarification, but I caught the "shout-out," as it were. 😎👍

[@grassyhill5830]

I love that batmans like sorry for cock blocking you

[@RohanArya-ug6zz]

This is one of the creepiest,darkest and best BTAS episodes ever

[@drewwar9344]

Fun fact fungus doesn't fall into either categories of Flora or fona

[@deshaunfortune912]

One of the best and most horrifying episode

[@kfcbrian4416]

3:04 lol

[@timtwoface]

One of only two times that I can pinpoint Jim Cummings being on Batman: The Animated Series; he has a lot of work with WB as Taz but he most definitely spent more time on the Disney side of the ledger, especially with oh so many prominent roles on Disney Afternoon shows. To say nothing of Pooh and Tigger.

[@muhammadhabibieamiro3639]

Is time for season 2

[@deshaunfortune912]

The current Poison Ivy comic by G Willow Wilson involves cordyceps

[@Deedo_67]

Really awesome episode I always felt was really under rated.

[@GamingGamer22]

3:04 Calvin realized what he said was a little sus too 🤣

[@LincolnDWard]

Jeff was my favorite character

[@Vlad.Larionov]

Great! It is very interesting to see your joint reaction to the films Batman Unlimited: Animal Instincts and Batman Unlimited: Monster Mayhem. These are cool movies 👍

[@SonOfEire3]

What Batman villains have powers? Poison Ivy, Clayface, Killer Croc and Man-Bat? Bane used to count but lately he's given up the Venom cold turkey. I'd say Poison Ivy and Clayface are the most powerful.

[@finh8895]

Bat Mite

[@Rocket1377]

Solomon Grundy (superhuman zombie!), Joker (immune to toxins), Mr Freeze (immune to cold and has slowed aging), Ra's al Ghul (slowed aging), Copperhead (demonic snake-like abilities), Deathstroke (healing factor, enhanced physical abilities, enhanced intelligence).

[@SonOfEire3]

@@finh8895 I forgot about Bat-Mite, he'd be easily the most powerful lol

[@SonOfEire3]

@@Rocket1377 I thought about Mr. Freeze and the Joker but their "powers" didn't feel quite the same as real superpowers in the more obvious sense but I take your point lol Solomon Grundy and Deathstroke aren't really strictly Batman Villains if anything Solomon is a Justice Society villain and Deathstroke is for the Titans, tho I know both have fought Batman too

[@finh8895]

You've also got Dr Death and all the Dark Knights if you consider them Batman villians.@@SonOfEire3

[@thisspaceforrent5737]

The closest BTAS ever got to being a horror show. Actually, no. This episode is a genuine horror story.

[@MaxiRomero-wu3fw]

villains with "powers" Killer Crock, freze, Bane have super strength, Clay Face, Man bat. and yes Poyson Ivy is the more "powerful"

[@I-Am-Batman_1988]

I was really hoping y'all would continue btas with this season, all for 1 reason. I won't say so I don't spoil it but I just can't wait to see the reaction. It threw me for a loop, alright I'ma shut up. Hoping someone knows what I'm talking about lol.

[@nexttoyou678]

Give me a hint pls lol

[@LightShadowOnyx]

this episode is really creepy this could easiuly been turned into a horror episode but it also shows the ivy really wanted a normnal life it is a shame that they didn't use the batman & robin opening for the second season. Rip richaard moll who voiced harvey dent/two face in btas

[@scaryman9000]

just to say i find it confusing with Calvin and Aarons voices beeing swapped L-R

[@unicornburger16]

Wow, this episode was messed up.

[@mikechicago6200]

Man how messes up is that scene.....wow and that was a kids show......90s cartoons good times!

[@jonasquinn7977]

BTAS Ivy has no actual powers, she can’t telepathically control plants like most versions of the character she is just very very good at growing and manipulating them.

[@Mansplainer2099-jy8ps]

She has super-immunity.

[@Deadsnake47]

i like jeff, have jeff just watch with you guys from now on.

[@Illvester42]

y'all moving so slow with this show 😢 still Superman animated, Justice League, and Justice League Unlimited !!!

[@shockzz1234]

Horrifying episode, really lmao

[@Andros1921]

Redhead goes a little crazy and creates her own husband and twin sons. 🤔

[@WhiteFangofWar]

Another villain redemption episode turns into Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Annoyingly like Doctor Doom, from now on every time Ivy seemingly dies or gets caught it's a plant duplicate taking orders from the real thing.

[@Rocket1377]

Would you rather they kill her permanently?

[@kingcaesar3693]

Last time you see the real Poison Ivy is in this episode. A comic they made showed that the one after this episode is a copy from the plants she made.

[@Rocket1377]

Not confirmed, only alluded to. It's entirely possible that it was the real Ivy in some of those episodes.

[@jonasquinn7977]

@Rocket1377 The fact that TNBA Poison Ivy suddenly has actual powers over plants which are never actually explained it is very strongly implied

[@malcolm00xl]

Why has Robin never called Bruce "Uncle"? It seems like if nothing else an easy codename

[@mikechicago6200]

Gotta say i feel bad for that Car guy.....and while we're suppose to feel bad for her but after what she did i dont unlike Penguin and Jervis and Victor!
