Very little episode-to-episode development. Every episode is its own thing. Some episodes you will like, some you will hate, some episodes are just a decent way to pass 21 minutes.

In the end, if the episodes you like outweigh the ones you don't, you'll have a sort of warm feeling when you think of the show and that's good enough,

Pure unadulterated kino. Some eps are great, some didnt have the funding to be. All in all it's the best Batman and the best Joker that have ever been televised. You will love it, just as old and young do.

Some of the best episodic TV ever written. Not just good for a cartoon or a kid's show. It's up there with the greats and I'd argue that the Batman franchise has been riding the wave created by this show for decades now.
>>
>>216926767
You're in for a lot of lulls. A lot of old television doesn't play as well watching episode to episode. With TAS, you're better off picking out what people call the best episodes. That said, the animation in the first season is excellent, and it's a very atmospheric show for a kid's cartoon.

It's gonna feel like worn ground, but you have to put yourself in the mindset of a kid in the early 90s. Batman and Batman Returns transformed Batman from the Adam West camp to something darker and serious. Fox wanted that in the cartoon.
You will see thugs with brass knuckles, bats, crowbars, pistols and tommyguns. No lasers or halfassing things there.
Gotham is a retro-future style city, with police blimps and a 1920s aesthetic while there's still modern technology sprinkled around
You'll see the origin stories for Harley Quinn and Clayface. Mr Freeze and Two Face are given actual character development. Catwoman and Ivy are allowed to be sexy and still deadly. Joker and Batman's voice actors are peak. Even bit nonsense villians like Clock King are given some decent backstories.

Also a pretty incredible performance from Adam West, playing a washed up superhero actor who can't catch a break in modern Hollywood. Looking back, it's amazing he agreed to do it.

And finally, some amazing artwork/titlecards.

It's the best Batman media series ever in my opinion solely because it's a grab-bag of cool stuff in one convenient place. I don't have to shift through all that confusing comic book continuity, different graphic novels, all that bullshit. I just watch a show and I get one consistent story that develops with the characters albeit episodically. The only thing better would be a Batman anime with serialized story arcs
>>
>>216926767
absolute kino

>>216926781
it's barely a cartoon, it's more like an episodic detective noir that happens to be animated.
>>
>>216926767
The purest of kino. Anyone who says differently is a massive nigger faggot.
>>
>>216927100
Most of what's popular and known about Batman comes from the animated series honestly. The Arkham games were developed by many of the same people and take place in a similar world. Harley Quinn comes from the show. Mr. Freeze was reinvented, the upcoming Clayface movie is based on the episodes with him, etc. Without this show Batman would look a lot different today.

It's a cartoon. So it's villain of the week in structure and quite childish in its themes and writing.
I'm not a batman/comic book fan so it did nothing for me when i tried watching it recently.

However, if you're a fan of art, it does have excellent backgrounds and has better animation than every anime TV show put together. So i did appreciate it immensely on that level.

Proven by the fact that it had episodes aired during primetime broadcast TV, something strictly reserved for animated comedies like The Simpsons and Beavis and Butthead. In the 90s animation was not taken seriously by adults so the fact that Fox even did it showed how much faith the network had in it to connect with the 90s normie adults that watched broadcast TV.

Alot of people watching this now will have no metric for how good it was to ditch the 80s laser rifles in everything when this aired.

>>216927468
Tokyo Movie Shinsha, the studio that animated this episode, ignored the color instructions given to them and made their own color palette. The results were so successful, though, that Bruce Timm didn't mind. Per Timm: "I think when we shipped them 'Clayface,' they said to themselves: They think they know everything, but we'll show them how do do this show. We'll change Batman's colors. We'll do special color key treatments on the villains when they're walking over the green vat. We'll blow them away.

>>216927495
The Long Halloween The Dark Knight Returns have much better adaptations, but the best Batman film is still Mask of the Pahtasm. And like anon said The Killing Joke movie was garbage.
>>
>>216927666
That's one of the weirdest things about this show. The Joker is kind of lame. He only has a couple good episodes despite being the arch-nemesis. Random villains like Clock King were more compelling.
>>
the basics of the show, the gothic art deco noir, and the serious detective tone, the major archetypes of the joker and batman being pitch perfect deserve the credit that's been lavished on them but don't expect every episode to be kino of the highest order. there's a lot of dopey kid's show tropes and out left field clunkers you're going to need to get through in between the good stuff..
>>
There are very good episodes like the one where Bruce Wayne is captured into slavery and a normie helps him out then he comes back as Batman and annihilates the factory and frees everyone which was my favorite. Then there are really bad episodes like the one where Batman is unconscious in a kids basenment and it's basically home alone were they kids have to protect Batman from the Penguin who the writers despised using as a character and it showed.

I actually recently started watching it after only watching a few episodes on tv when I were little (I was a spiderman autist) cause I got baited from posts of scenes that make it look cooler than it actually is and cause Harley is sex.
Cool art direction aside (Which is still janky at times) It's very much a children's cartoon where some themed baddie tries to steal a million dollars out of a vault and batman punches him every week. There's some VERY cartoonish episodes like the one where batman is made to work on a mine owned by a colonel sanders ass southern stereotype and some slightly cooler ones like Two-Face's origin, but that's about it. It's quaint.

Yes and no. The overwhelming majority of Adam West's acting career has been playing Batman or playing himself.

That said, prior to his guest appearance in BTAS: Beware the Grey Ghost he was doing almost nothing besides throwaway B/C movies and made-for-TV shit. His last steady gig had been Superfriends, nearly a decade prior. Afterwards he started getting a lot of cameo work (mostly playing himself or Batman, but still). His Family Guy role started like 5-6 years after BTAS and he's gotten paid for something like 120 episodes in that, and that launched him into a much larger voice-acting role. He's done like 30 or 40 different cartoon, animated movie, and video game VA roles since Family Guy.

Justice League + Justice League Unlimited

I've listed them in production order for the most part; they're the greatest DC adaptations ever produced. Growing up watching most of these cartoons on the channel that the CW used to be spoiled me because nothing else comes close. Not the Donner Superman movies, not Burton/Schumacher Batman, not the SNEEDerverse or the Arrowverse, or Gunn's current slate. Certainly not the goofy old Adam West show. Nothing. It's literally the apotheosis of DC Comics in the pop culture landscape.

Also, you should at least read the Batman comics that came after the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" event in 1985 and stop when an event called Flashpoint happens. Better yet, stop when Grant Morrison starts writing them in the 2000s.

Without a doubt. Cute clown girl Harley will always be superior and it's infuriating that DC/Warner keep trying to erase that aspect of her character.

Why they have to fuck with the best version is mind boggling & annoying.
As much as I think Gunn is a hack, I like Harley's look in THE Suicide Squad. Then they went and fucked it beyond recognition is the Birds of Prey movie

>>216950101
Talk to any normie batman beyond enjoyer and they'll almost immediately bring up how cool it was when the remix of the OG theme played with old Bruce fought the Ink chick or they'll talk about Return of the Joker. Two of BB's best moments are throwbacks to TAS. The rest are one liners that could have come from anywhere (like the 'you killed my father' line, Vader could have said that shit just as easily)
>>

He also shapeshifts....well more like clay-forms his clothing along with the rest of him.

>>216950248
Naw, shapeshifting is incredibly inconsistent. Sometimes you can only change to other humans (Mystique), others can do animals (Beast Boy, Morph) and some can even make fake imaginary shit (J'onn Jones, Clayface).
>>
>>216950748
>Sometimes you can only change to other humans (Mystique)
Mystique can turn into anything. Even inorganic items
>>
>>216950748
i mean what counts as 'you', your teeth, your hair, your nails?

if he can transform organic living matter he's attached to, let's just assume his clothes are all wool/cotton and then we don't have to worry about showing penises in a children's cartoon.

Total kino. You should also watch super man the animated series the two justice league shows (minus an episode called epilogue which should be watched after Batman Beyond) and Batman Beyond in that order they're all in the same universe and flow together well. Don't watch any of the later movies from the 2010s they're all ass. It's alot of content, but it is worth the pay off of seeing characters return later there are things set up in superman that pay off in justice league etc. It really is the best on screen adaptation outside of Superman being a pussy in season 1 justice league, but they fix it in season 2 and explain it away well for why he was like that.

I only recall her turning into other people while Morph was 'anything he felt like'. Furthers my point tho.
>>
>>216952279
>Superman TAS
Based. Especially Clancy Brown as Luthor and Michael Ironside as Darkseid.
Darkseid's entrance was amazing. Superman asks who he is, Darkseid eyelasers him till he's kneeling, then casually replies "That is who I am"

Based Darkseid enjoyer. The DCAU is one of those things that just blows me away with how kino it is even all these years later
>>
>>216952392
I don't get how that helps your point at all.
Mystique is the most advanced shapeshifter in marvel. At least for mutants anyway. I've see her...
>turn into a dog and other animals
>turn into a mermaid then launch herself into the air and strike down army helicopters
>turn into a piece of paper after jumping out of a skyscraper window from and explosion and gently falling to the ground

A shapeshifter's 'clothes' isn't real clothes. It's body cells made to feel like clothes. It's like the T-1000 in T2.
>>
>>216952572
My point is shapeshifting is inconsistent from writer to writer.
>>
>>216952932
Except it's not. Each of those characters have their own powerset that includes some aspect of shapeshifting.

A good time. A time that is good enough to define Batman for nearly 3 decades. Don't take it too seriously. And don't take it as regular(60s-00s) Saturday Morning cartoon slop. DCAU is quite honestly the peak of capeshit. Batman TAS, Superman TAS, Justice League, Justice League Unlimited, etc. Disney's Marvel Slop doesn't even come close. Neither does Snyder-League.
CONSOOM it all and be your own judge.

This but unironically. And I pity them. They don't remember a pre-9/11 America. All they know is multi-cultural bullshit. They weren't raised in or taught to respect America. All they know is "colonialism bad" "white/European bad" bullshit. They are getting a rude fucking awakening now though. Europe has fallen. Canada has fallen. The USA is very close behind. Competency and Replication Crisis are becoming more and more "common vernacular". My only hope for myself and my descendants is that Zoomers and Gen Alpha are able to right the course of this floundering ship of multi-cult bullshit.
