I'm sorry, what? You clearly don't know the first thing about The Batman, yet you're attempting a critical analysis of it. The entire point of The Batman was to tell different stories than what The Animated Series told (hence why some people dislike the series). Yes, we have a more shallow Mr. Freeze story, where Victor Fries was a common criminal rather than a scientist trying to save his wife, but we also got The Riddler, where Edward Nigma had a tearjerkingly tragic past rather than having a past that is completely shrouded in mystery.

The Batman did everything in its power to tell different stories than The Animated Series, or really anything that preceded it in Batman lore, and, in my opinion, it succeeded, whether those stories were done well or not.

However, I will join with you saying that it, along with the Nickelodeon show, did come a bit to soon after their predecessors. (A 4 year gap between TMNT series, seriously?) And lastly, if you want a Brave and the Bold-style TMNT series, just watch Half-Shelled Heroes.
