@Star I've watched one episode of it. It was ok but I didn't watch anymore. Not because I wasn't interested...I forget why. I was ok with the other cartoon though. It occurred to me that when I was little, I was more into comedy cartoons. Looking at it now, I was like... "I don't know why. I shoulda watched this show a long time ago.

Batman beyond is one of the fewer incarnations of Batman I unequivocally like.

Modern-era Batman is altogether too dark for my tastes. He's interesting on a certain level, but I have a hard time finding him compelling as a protagonist. Batman Beyond had a much more human lead and supporting cast, so I found it easier to take, and the slightly more colourful art style was also nice.

Though that said the comics have almost frustratingly good writing. I want to give it up because it's so dour, but it's so damn good I just can't.

And then they go an introduce a series with the cute gay side character and his awesome sister who've only shown up a couple of times in a 30-comic run in a major role, and dammit...

I wish I loved these shows when I was younger. When Firefly was on, I was watching Mega Babies...a show which I hated as a kid but watched anyway. Geez.

My favourite incarnation of Bats is the DCAU one. The Long Halloween also has a great Batman.

I've yet to see it, but The Lego Movie's Batman looks awesome. "First try!"tongue

I'm glad Warner Bros. introduced LEGO Batman as another good contender for memorable movie/TV Batmans!

My introduction to Batman was The Dark Knight, and ever since I saw it in 2009 I've been a pretty big fan of that franchise. I pretty much consider the Animated Series, The Dark Knight Trilogy and the Arkham Asylum video games {Aside from the mediocre prequel} to be the best Batman media outside of the comics. I also own the comics "Batman Year One", "The Long Halloween" and "Dark Victory", which sort of make up a trilogy. Also, "Batman: Mask of the phantasm" is my favorite BTAS film.

BTW, not gonna lie, I rewatched the Tim Burton Batman films recently, and while they are good I can't help but find them overrated, especially the first one. I respect that the first film did cause people to take the character seriously again, and I think Danny Elfmen, Michal Keaton and Jack Nicholson did a great job, but besides those I really don't see what's so special about the first movie. I guess it really hasn't aged well over the years.

I'm going to totally derail this conversation to say that after watching the CMC in s4, it's weird to go back and see them in s1. They've really come a long way.

You can get caffeine pills.

You want to be careful though since the concentrated pills make it a lot easier to overdose.

I'd like to watch Adventure Time, but Netflix only has season 1 because only having one fifth of the show available makes perfect sense.

I ran into that problem too. Luckily I found a site online which had all the episodes.

I saw bits and peices of Batman Beyond as a kid but not enough to get a real feel for the show.

The first time I ever saw Batman would when the old be the Adam West show was shown on TV. Of course at the time I thought the show was brand new.

Oddly enough SF Debris just did a review of Batman Beyond today. And by Batman Beyond I mean that one episode of Justice League Unlimited.

As a kid I just liked it because it had cooler gadgets due to being set in the future.

The first thing involving Batman I remember seeing was the old 60's TV show, but that was when I really young. Then first I remember fondly was the Animated Series.

I think 60s Batman may have been the first that I saw too, but I barely remember it. All I remember is that that's the only time I've seen Mr Freeze in the media.

The only tv version of Batman I ever watched was The Batman. I should give TAS and Beyond a look on Netflix sometime… after finishing Breaking Bad and making sure I'm not gonna fall behind in school.

Hmm. Y'know, I've been thinking of starting up a new liveblog. Maybe Batman Beyond would be a good subject candidate.
