Still, they're doing a MUCH better job of doing an inexperienced Bruce Wayne then the Batman could hope to accomplish.

Don't be mean to The Batman, it was a better show than most people will give it credit for. It's not TAS but it was still solid. I really enjoyed all the character designs in The Batman, they were very unique and fresh.

True, but it was still a very disjointed show and could never decide what it wanted to be, and which crowds it was trying to please.

I've gone into length about The Batman multiple times in this thread, so I'll avoid repeating myself again.

In terms of Batman shows, I'd probably say Beyond > TAS > The Batman > Brave and The Bold.

I can't hate on that list. Mine would be slightly different. TAS > Beyond > Brave and the Bold > The Batman

Fun and ended before it's time. Like every other damn show on Cartoon Network, except Clone Wars for some reason.

Undeniably and I enjoyed it thoroughly but Beyond took the tone I loved from TAS and moved it into a setting and made it about things which appeal and relate to me much, much better.

The Batman may have been weaker as a story, but it was just so damn original and visually striking that I think in many ways this show actually holds up the best out of any of them.

But all Brave and The Bold was, was fun. It didn't push the boundaries of kids entertainment (unless we include that Birds of Prey song), it didn't take Batman in some brave new direction (excuse the pun), unless you wanna commend the series for basically blending JLU with camp Batman rather than modern gritty Batman or really have anything to it that gives it lasting appeal, beyond maybe making the campy Batman of old bearable unlike the near unreadable comics it was inspired by.

True, but at least they ended it on a high note, and not setting up a god damned fourth season we'll never see.

I hate Cartoon Network .-.

So episode 3 of Beware.

Man I'm loving this show and how competent the villains are. Anarchy might not be the Joker, but he presents a threat that I can take seriously all the same.
