I remember watching this on Cartoon Network when I was around 10 years old or less. Can't remember the better age exactly haha! Anyways I felt by looking at it now that, it's not exactly the best television series to be honest with you. I thought the design of the Joker was absolutely terrible, he looked like an alien rather than a extreme crazy clown. They should've at least brought him back to the normal look instead of trying new looks. I know they changed the jokers look for the new upcoming movie "Suicide Squad" but it's a bloody better look than this one! Rino Romano needed to act rougher like Kevin Conroy if he wanted to sound like Batman. Nice try but he should've tried a lot harder than that I'm afraid! He wasn't too bad but still...The series is OK but needed to be more better with regards to redesigning and better voice actors...

The Batman is, in my opinion, an excellent take on the Batman that is fitting in the current age of tech. The Batwave, the hand-held Batwave transceiver, the Batmobile, the Batboat, and of course, the Batcave itself are really cool and original.It may be hard for some to get accustomed to the new voice actors (it was for me), if you're used to the voices of the likes of Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill. However, given enough time, you'll not only like the new voices; but, also appreciate the way they fit their respective characters.The artwork and styling of the show is not conventional and I found it a little jarring to begin with. Yet again, it finally grew upon me and I came to really like it by the middle of the second season.Many of the villains have been re-imagined and are pretty different from what we are used to seeing from the comic books or previous animated iterations of the Dark Knight. I feel this re-imagining adds new life and opens up new and unexplored avenues that may have otherwise been missed if they carried on with the same character design for many decades. The way I like to see it is that each different iteration lies in a different universe, unless of course they are meant to be in the same universe. If you take the different shows in this way, you'll really appreciate the new flavors that they bring to the table. It is fine for characters to be re-imagined in radically different ways because that is what makes these shows interesting. I feel that one should not put down a show just because it is not true to previous iterations. As long as the cores of the characters are preserved, it doesn't matter if the Penguin knows a bit of martial arts, or the Joker is loonier than usual and has some funky gadgets of his own. Just watch it with an open mind and don't compare it with anything else.In a nutshell, I really enjoy watching the Batman and I like the way the characters have been re-imagined. The show, the stories and the characters themselves feel fresh and it is an excellent complement to BTAS (another show that I dearly love).

Awful re-imagining of Batman. The top reasons are... 1. Completely Miscast Voice ActorsWhile some if not most of the Voice Actors in this are great on separate jobs, EVERYONE is mis-cast in this thing. They have Tom Kenny (Sponge Bob Squarepants) as some out of breath Penguin, Kevin Michael Richardson as some deep-voiced, barefoot, dread-locked Joker, Robert Englund as The Riddler, etc. (Although it is nice they have Ron Pearlman, who's familiar with Batman-related work, aka "clayface") 2. The Art.They try to be dark, which to some extent you SHOULD for anything Batman related, but the color choices don't match, don't blend, etc. The STYLE of art (character design, form etc) is like some cheap "Adventures of Jackie Chan" knockoff combined with some poor-man's version of American anime. What the F*ck. There's literally no style whatsoever.This show was basically a cheap ploy for bucks, all masquerading as entertainment. Just. The. Worst.
