i don't understand
i think my show is good why don't more
people bring it up in topics of
conversation
well there's a problem of having a ton
of batman shows and movies in general
is it that not enough youtubers and
writers talk about my show
i don't know well listen bruce remember
that
even though people don't talk about your
show too much that doesn't make you or
your show any less important
see ya

how'd you do that i'm the batman the
batman is a show that ran from 2004 to
2008.
if you look it up in the mauricio
dictionary an image of it will be placed
right next to the word
childhood because this show was my
childhood i watched it on tv and bought
the best seasons to me the first and
second seasons on dvd
and then just watched the other seasons
on tv this video will be mostly
concerned with the first and second
seasons as while the other seasons are
great
i don't think there is tonally
consistent and thematically resonant as
the first two
now spoiler alert the batman is a show
about batman
this is a young batman who's only been
batman for three years
three years ago tonight you first donned
cape and carl
graham flies chop chop make a wish
that's one of the reasons why batman has
a higher vocal range than the usual
lower tone
and the show takes full advantage that
this batman is not your usual batman
bruce is still young he's still getting
his life together a fun aspect of the
show is that bruce
actually has a life outside of his
batman persona
it doesn't always feel like the show is
doing plot heavy things all the time and
has characters talk about their personal
issues to make them
seem more real bruce wayne in the show
is friends with ethan bennett a police
detective and their dynamic
is fantastic as while they're friends
bennett is actively hunting down batman
as that's his job
and batman's a vigilante as we see in
the first episode
you have the right to remain silent
[Music]
yeah don't question it batman can just
grapple the sky not just that but
bruce's relationship with alfred
absolutely makes the show a lot of the
time alfred has never been
so integral to bruce's life and this is
aided by the fact that there's no other
superhero
no sidekick around to eat up screen time
at least at first
so it's all bruce and alfred and you
really feel that parental relationship
for example in the very second episode
of the entire series
batman faces off against bane and guess
what
batman is straight up out of commission
less than halfway through the episode
you have broken bones you may be
bleeding internally
and through his recovery we witness his
past his present and with alfred's help
bruce is able to move forward
building a mega sexy epic batmak suit
that would put iron man's hulkbuster to
shame
[Applause]
the bane episode is easily one of my
favorite episodes as it immediately
starts off the show
on a high note batman gets his ass
kicked he's human
i'm not helping the law i'm just
breaking it maybe it is time for the
batman
to take a vacation a permanent one all
of batman's rogues gallery has been
redesigned to feel modern and badass
if you've watched the show jackie chan
adventures one of the greatest shows
ever of all time in the history of the
planet then you'd know the character
designer jeff matsuda
he worked on that show and came onto the
batman to serve as the art director
so the joker is not only the usual clown
prince of crime but is also incredibly
athletic and acrobatic
mr freeze said goodbye to being a
mysterio look-alike and now as solid
ice as his helmet the riddler is one of
the coolest interpretations he's no
longer the usual goofball he's probably
one of the most intimidating villains of
the entire series
completely serious straight to the point
and almost killed batman multiple times
i said no help chief
also voiced by robert englund that's
right freddie
krueger bro i will blow gotham bay
bridge by remote
and everyone on it not just that the
entire voice cast is stellar
reno romano is batman kevin michael
richardson is joker
i was feeling a bit screw loose so i'd
check myself in tom kenny in one of his
best performed roles
ever as the penguin clancy brown as mr
freeze ming now when
is detective ellen yin helenian
the series has an absurd amount of
episodes and if you're a batman fan
this is honestly the show for you the
first two seasons are
classic perfect batman with a modernized
touch
seasons three and four are for those
that love a slightly more cartoony
batman who interacts with robin and
batgirl
that's not to say that's a bad thing
while there's a lot more crazy episodes
like the one where batman and robin
pretty much
fight off all the villains from the
entire series
there's still episodes like the clock
king episode and season 5
is for those that love dc comics as a
whole and want to see the justice league
back on that clock king episode i
mentioned it because not only do i find
it really good
but because of how it's a prime example
of how the show treats its villains
insane or not they all have their wants
and needs and the clock king is one of
the most
quote unquote human villains the batman
faces in the series
don't worry honey we'll get through this
for once i'm going to make things right
still as a fan of the more serious
batman which is reflected by the intro
let's talk about the season finale to
the first season
well i'm tired of clowns and vigilantes
turning my department into a
laughingstock
probably the most focused season season
1 has detective ethan bennett a friend
of bruce wayne and ellen yin a new
recruit for the gotham police department
trying to solve crimes and actively hunt
down the batman
since you know no one can catch the
batman because well he's
batman ethan bennett gets a lot of [ __ ]
the season finale is a two-parter the
episodes are titled the rubber face of
comedy
and the clayface of tragedy respectively
and as you can guess
it has something to do with the joker
and clayface and so
this is where it gets crazy in a season
finale that's a bit heavy
not gonna lie the joker captures ethan
bennett and psychologically torments the
crap out of him to the point that
ethan's losing his sanity
batman then appears and throws his
batarang at the joker making joker drop
his gun
but the glass canister containing the
joker putty formula
explodes and bennett inhales the
freaking thing
now joker putty is pre-established in
the episode to be a formula which
transforms any surface into an
incredibly malleable one
so not only has bennett lost his mind a
bit but now he's inhaled this toxic
trash and when he gets back home
oh so bennett turns into the clay face
and the final episode is about bruce
wayne and ellen yin tracking down
clayface
and it's rough because both have a past
with him
by the way let me tell you a little
secret oh
yes
you defending the batman it's
surprisingly intense
it is what kid's shows should strive to
be engaging and boundary pushing
what's become of this
[Music]
let's also not forget about the entire
film batman vs dracula
which was supposed to be tvy7 but was so
edgy it ended up being pg maybe we'll
save that for another video
the episode that most surprised me and i
think is the catalyst for the ongoing
season slightly lighter tone because
maybe the execs were like
that's too dark it's episode 12 from
season two
strange minds hi i'd like a veggie pizza
we'll be there don't you mean 30 min
pizza delivery yikes so bam encounters
the joker who's easily caught by batman
and the joker is interrogated stating
that ellen yin is stuck in a box set to
explode in eight hours unless they let
the joker walk free
this feels kind of familiar so ya boy
hugo strange walks in and he's like hey
i actually have a machine which lets you
enter another person's mind
and i think you can see where this is
going we use bat wave to jack into
arkham server
where we can piggyback strange's
frequency and enter joker's crazed
cranium
where you shall somehow uncover yin's
location this leaves finding yin to
batman where he encounters crazy visuals
the joker's past
self and hugo strange eventually batman
makes his way to where yin is and this
entire scene is aided by the voice
acting
the direction and the fantastic score by
thomas chase jones
[Music]
and it gets more intense
save me batman
yeah the batman more like the goat man a
little more
intense and with pacing that isn't
rushed for tv this one episode would
make a
fantastic batman animated film i don't
really know why people don't talk about
this show too much it's really bizarre
especially considering it had five
friggin seasons the second season's
finale is legitimately one of the better
season finales i've ever seen and ties
up everything
really really well and it actually
establishes the idea that from season
one to season five by the end of the
series
batman is a much more battle-hardened
mature hero
his design even changes from having
bigger eyes and a thinner chin to
smaller eyes and a broader chin
[Music]
sit this one out maybe it's time to pass
the torch
i'll pass the torch when the mission's
over the second season ends with
commissioner gordon being introduced
as well as constructing a bat signal i
do my best work from the shadows
that won't need to change all i ask is
that you help me make gotham a safe
place for my daughter to grow up in
the season actually ends in a similar
fashion to batman begins and all the
power to it for this decision
for your daughter then
oh come on that's so good that's so good
and so the rest is history the entire
show is great and i implore you to at
least
watch the first three seasons as the
batgirl season also has some dope
stories and introduces poison ivy and
such
i think in general i wanted to make this
video because i don't see much praise
for this show
i've seen some vids they exist and
they're great but i want more people to
know about this show
and honestly maybe give this show a
chance watch an episode well if you can
find it that is
it's kind of hard to find this show
online
well the video was made and you know
it's nice to have someone talk about you
