This is a VERY fine production of the TV series. I am very happy with the seller's A+A+A+ service.

This show is great. Everyone needs to keep in mind the intended audience here, namely smaller kids. My 6 and 3 1/2 half year olds love it, and I enjoy watching this series with them. The stories are not that scary and not too complex for young minds to understand. The most complex of this series, the last one with Clay-face took a lot of explanation to my 6 year old.br /br /It's right in the title of these DVD's (Kids Collection). I'm just sorry there aren't any new ones at this point in this line.

Better than I thought it would be. August 8, 2008

I remember when this show first came out, I wanted nothing to do with it. I remember thinking "wow, looks like a campy version of the 90's show". Well, I hate to admit when I'm wrong but here it goes... I was wrong. I've always been a batman fan. As a kid I would watch the 90's show every chance I got. Like every batman fan, I was so excited when "The Dark Knight" came out. After I saw it twice in the theater, I pulled out my old graphic novels and re-read them. I also pulled out my 90's animated series dvds and re-watched those. I read some reviews of "The Batman" and after seeing the first season at the store for 12.99, I decided why not. While there are some flaws with this series, at least in the first season, there are some great pros. I was one of the ones that HATED the way the new joker looked, but to be honest, this joker seems more like the joker from the comics then the other one from the old series ever did. He seems crazier, like he doesn't care to get caught or not, and after a while his looks grows on you. My only complaint is that it gets a little redundant after a while. Some of the episodes almost seem similar, just with a different bad guy. We have to remember though that this is the first season and lets be honest, the first season of the original batman series had its flaws. br /br /These are My top five favorite episodes of this season.br /1. The Bat in the Belfry (Classic Joker)br /2. The Rubberface of Comedy/ The Clayface of Tragedy br /3. Traction br /4. The Big Heat br /5. The Man Who Would be Batbr /br /So, there you have it. I would highly recommend this. I am in the process of watching the second season and once it is done, I will make sure to write a review for it also. br /br /oh yeah, another problem I had with it is Mr. Freeze. They went with the classic story of his character instead of the poetic one made in The Animated Series, and it really doesnt work. The writing in that episode is terrible also because there are a bunch of bad "ice" puns throughout the whole thing, it almost feels like you are watching the Batman and Robin movie again.

The Batman-The Complete First Season........... July 7, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

In the first season of The Batman, Batman is Batman, year three. At 26, he's still a little rough around the edges but, definitely, honing his craft as a crimefighter. He goes up against the likes of The Joker, Penguin, Catwoman, Firefly, Man-Bat(one of my all-time favorite Batman villans), The Ventriloquist(the other all-time favorite), Clayface, Rupert Thorne, Mr. Freeze, Bane, and Cluemaster. Vocal talent was provided by: Rino Romano, Adam West(TV's live-action Batman of the 60s), Alastair Duncan, Victor Brandt, Kevin Michael Richardson, Gina Gershon, Clancy Brown, Steve Harris, Jason Marsden, Dan Castellaneta, Peter MacNicol, Glenn Shadix, Joaquim de Almeida and Mr. Hellboy,himself, Ron Perlman. In my opinion, the first season shows a more lighter humorous side of Batman but the episodes are great,nonetheless. My favorite episodes were, of course, the ones featuring Man-Bat The Ventriloquist. With The Batman, you'll notice a huge difference in artistic styles for the show as opposed to Batman: The Animated Series. It also has a more adult tone to it than anything that has previously came before it. I really enjoyed season one and will continue to add the show to my collection. br /br /If you're a Batman fan, give this show a chance. It is actually pretty good. I know the majority didn't take too kindly to it but , believe me, you don't know what you're missing. It's awesome.

I have to admit! April 28, 2008

During the first season the writers are getting their "sea legs" so to speak but overall the series is better than I expected. Perhaps I'm jaded by the last animation re-creation of the Batman persona (which I feel is still the best). However, this gentler, kinder yet still creatively cunning Batman is enjoyable to watch.
