Default "Batman: The Animated Series" or "The Batman"

Although I feel "The Animated Series" is more of a classic, I really enjoy "The Batman" just a notch more. I still think it's too soon for them to reinvent Batman and Gotham City, but I feel the new series has pulled it off nicely.

"The Batman" seems like a nice companion for the MTV's Spider-Man cartoon.

If you mean by the batman, you mean the recent series by warner brothers on the cartoon network, then I choose Batman: The Animated Series. The Batman looks like Teen titans, and the villians are poorly drawn.

Batman: The Animated Series - one of my favorites and a whole new way of mainstream cartoons in the US when it came out

Yes, I'm talking about the new animated series. I didn't like the way they animated the villains at first, but now I'm kind of liking it.

Batman: the Animated Series, all the way. It's just more classy.

I knew "The Animated Series" would win. But I thought there would be at least one more vote than mine for "The Batman." I wonder how the ratings are for "The Batman."

BTW, Frank Gorshin and Adam West did voices for "The Batman." The episode or episodes are airing soon. So even after his death, Frank Gorshin is still doing Batman shows.

I like both of them equally, but as far as the quality of animation goes, I agree w/ Greg w/ him saying that Batman: The Animated Series is waaaay better than The Batman, b/c the animation on The Batman looks really crappy and badly drawn, especially the way the villains are drawn.

Agreed, Batman: The Animated Series is much better than The Batman. I like watching Batman ever since I was about seven years old on Cartoon Network I think, but I don't really remember when did I watched it. Well, since it came out on DVD before, I think that I probably want to get the first season of Batman: The Animated Series.

I haven't had a chance to catch "The Batman" yet. But fromwhat I've heard, it's a good addition to the Batman animated franchise.
