when you talked about the beard i realized i have been thoroughly conditioned by youtubers to expect a segue into a manscaped ad

[@TommyNoPickles]

Oh my god that’s hilarious. I’ll spare you. For now. 🧔🏻‍♂️

[@jodilea144]

Ha - me too!!😁

I think the real reason Gordon cuts off Barbra from revealing that she is Batgirl is an implication that he does know deep down, but would rather keep it a secret rather than be told officially by her. At least that's the popular theory going around anyway.

[@TommyNoPickles]

That is so insightful, I love that

[@HMNCLunar]

Didn't know it was a popular fan-theory, but that was what I thought when I watched the episode.

[@horrorontherocks]

You had me at “hey dude” - 10/10

[@TommyNoPickles]

Thats high praise

[@Master-bk3qd]

The second I read the title I knew it would be this episode and you need more love great vid😊

[@TommyNoPickles]

Thanks! Working on it 🎃

There were a lot of episodes from the TNBA run of the show that actually had me stunned thinking "they were allowed to show that on Television????" This along with Growing Pains (The Clayface Episode) and the show's adaptation of the Mad Love tie-in Comic genuinely are some of my favorite episodes from any Television show- period

[@CaptainMcKayRandom]

New to your channel, loved this video. Easily the strongest episode from the TNBA run in my opinion. I believe Gordon kinda winks at Barbara when he says “all of you” at the end, which could still mean he thinks she’s “modeling” (or whatever the 1998 equivalent was) but I think the implication is that he knows. Then hits her with the “I won’t hear another word on the subject” or similar line, so it SEEMS like Barbara’s come to terms and found peace about keeping that secret? They revisited this kinda scenario in Arkham Knight, with Barbara being revealed as Batgirl/Oracle to a clueless Gordon, and it plays out as well as you’d expect. Bane’s “thought about it…didn’t work for me” line is something I’ve said in my real life because of hearing it on this episode haha. I liked the fight where Batman basically gives up and acknowledges that it doesn’t matter if they fight to the death, really hammers home that Batman has nothing to lose anymore. Subscribed to the channel, I see you’re an action figure guy so if you enjoy stop motion and collecting feel free to have a look at my channel. Excellent video here!

Okay, I came because of the community post by Booze and Boos…I’m a 50 year old woman who has literally never seen even one episode of the Batman cartoon series, but I actually really enjoyed this! Your enthusiasm rivals my husband’s, as he talks about Star Wars! It was nice to be able to put a face to the voice behind one of my favorite glitch in the matrix channels - thanks for entertaining me!😊

[@TommyNoPickles]

I’m so glad you came to give this video a shot. Really appreciate you. I wonder if there are any ~spooky~ Star Wars episodes I can cover…

[@jodilea144]

@@TommyNoPickles maybe so, I’ve only watched a few episodes of the different series though, so I wouldn’t know. Might be interesting to look into though. 🤔

[@TheDarkestHourYT]

Well, I love this. 🔥💯💯

[@SonJWri]

I was 9 years old when this episode aired and it just my favorite episode of The New Batman Adventures

[@tylerscott2116]

This was great, I'm a huge Batman fan. And this was awesome!

[@Wicked666Jess]

I'm gonna have to say , Batman Beyond, The return of Joker. What Joker and Harley did to Robin (Tim Drake) is pretty dark and twisted. And then there is The killing Joke, even though they toned down the animated version, the book is hardcore.

[@aaronatkinson177]

Man i really do miss this show batman the animated series was so fucking good even though some episodes weren't masterpieces they still were charming and entertaining in their own way 😊

[@TommyNoPickles]

It’s a true gem.

Great to see you in fine form and enjoying yourself so much, put a big smile on my dial, thanks for the smile generator!👍😃 Keep being the good self you are, ✌️🐸❤️

"The most DISTURBING Batman episode" Do you have the slightest idea of how little that narrows it down?

[@theotakux5959]

It's always fun when a video title doesn't have an episode title but it's still obvious what the topic is. Also, that shot of her landing on the hood of her dad's patrol car is one of the greatest shots I've seen in animaion, period.

[@TommyNoPickles]

I wish I could see the original draft that showed it head-on 🚔

[@theotakux5959]

@@TommyNoPickles As interesting as I think that could be, I think the 'censored version is more impactful (pardon the pun). It's unexpected. When you see them in the car, you don't expect her to land right on it like that.

[@Trekapedia]

Great job man! I grew up with the DCAU and I miss it. Batman Beyond is my favorite show but I love The New Batman Superman Adventures. Fantastic memories of The WB and Kids’ WB! I still can’t believe this episode aired on Kids’ WB! and it makes me happy to be a fan from what I consider one of the best years of the network and it’s blocks. Please keep the awesome stuff coming. I got suggested your videos because I loved the DCAU, Kids’ WB! and The WB. Keep up the fantastic work man! Also, is this your favorite episode and if not what is?

[@TommyNoPickles]

Thank you Trekapedia! I also grew up with the DCAU, what a wild episode to air on Kids WB, eh? I think this episode is my fave from TNBA, but when it comes to Batman TAS my favorite episode has to be ‘Almost Got ‘em’.

[@Trekapedia]

@@TommyNoPickles loved that episode Almost Got ‘Im! My pleasure and thank you again. Keep the awesome stuff coming please like I said before!

I appreciate you thank yiu

Absolutely fire episode icl

Thank you Ħāmšťęř

[@VusitakethepicMak]

A topic you can cover is possibly the future of DC love action movies and what route or adaption you would like to see come to life on future movies. Also characters that are over looked but have dwwp or terrifying stories like pig face, kiteman or even Harvey Dent from batman, I forget Pig faces actual name but yeah you get my point.

[@TommyNoPickles]

Oooohh yeah I love that idea about diving into the deep and terrifying back stories. Good call and thank you!

[@vanceamania]

This was a great ep!

[@TommyNoPickles]

So many twists! But that “twist” at the end 😤

[@vanceamania]

@TommyNoPickles I think this ep, and old wounds were the great eps of this season
