Favorite Batman Cartoon?

Over the years there have been many different Batman cartoons. Which was your favorite and what did you think of each?

My thoughts:

The Batman/Superman Hour/The Adventures of Batman: I don't remember this show at all so I don't have an opinion.

The New Adventures of Batman: I don't remember this show either so no opinion.

Batman: The Animated Series: Not much can be said that hasn't been said throughout the years. A classic show. Considered by many to be the truest and best version of Batman. And I can see why. I have many fond memories of watching this show. The cast of characters were great and made for some memorable stories. My personal favorite.

The New Batman Adventures: I was never as interested in this one. It was pretty good from what I remember but I'm not as inclined to watch it as much as it's predecessor.

Batman Beyond: One of my favorite Batman cartoons. Seeing an elderly Bruce train and mentor Terry in how to continue the Batman legacy was great. Terry was a pretty cool character IMO. The futuristic setting made for some cool stories. There was also some great variety in the villains and their designs.

The Batman: A commonly overlooked show that was pretty good. I REALLY liked the first season. It had some great storytelling and the way they presented old characters was a refreshing take on them. The new characters Ethen and Detective Yin were great. The conflict between Ethan/Clayface and Batman was a great one that I wish would've continued on longer. Detective Yin was a great character too, one that I wish would show up in other versions. Overall the first season was great. Unfortunately, as it went on it started to get bad little by little and I don't think it ever got better (I dropped it after watching their poor excuse for a The Dark Knight Returns adaptation). The whole tension between Clayface and Batman eventually become non-existent and Yin was written off the show with no explanation, which were horrible ideas.

I will say this about the later seasons: it was a pretty ballsy move introducing Batgirl before Robin, but they managed to make it work.

Batman: The Brave And The Bold: A fun show with a lot of fun characters. This show made me like Blue Beetle, Elastic Man, and Bat Mite.

Beware The Batman: The latest Batman show and it wasn't very good. I really didn't like the animation and the story was pretty boring at times. But it did manage to reintroduce pretty obscure characters to the franchise and for that I give it props. I also liked their version of Magpie.
