Tackier than Bat-Flash?

LOVED IT!!!

I think it really picked up after they finished with Blight.

My favorite villain was Kurare. That girl with the scimitar. The Henry Rollins character was cool too.

My favorite episodes were the ones with Ra's Al Ghul and the one were people think Bruce is going nuts. I really thought there were going to be two Batmans the way that episode was going, and it would have been so cool.

I was hoping it would have gone on a little longer so we could have seen what happen to Dick and maybe having Terry's little brother become Robin.

I really liked Spellbinder a lot, especially his costume.

Yeah, I remember watching it thinking "Wow! Now what?" Really thought they'd bring him back or reveal that he didn't REALLY die, something like that.

Kurare was great, Inque was a good one, loved the silent portion of the first Shriek episode. And then there's the Kraven-esque hunter who starts tracking down the wrong McGuinness kid... I wasn't a big fan of Big Time or Mad Stan, though.

While I still want to know what happened with Nightwing (all we ever heard was that he went off to establish himself in another city. Then again, maybe he was SO pissed at Bruce & Babs that he fell off the face of the earth), I'm kinda glad we never saw a Robin. Max filled the role of lightening the mood (without putting on a costume) good enough for me.

Did they ever reveal what happened to Catwoman? I know they showed Bane, Mr. Freeze, Talia, Joker... who else?

Oh, I was listening to the writer's commentary and I heard that, at one point, ONE writer wanted Dana to break up with Terry and for him to hook up with Max. Glad we dodged THAT bullet!

Oh yeah, and imdb.com tells me that Wayne Brady voice Micron! =)

So....

Any more thoughts? Would anyone have wanted to see Max and Terry? Or are we glad he stayed with Dana?

I've only seen some of the episodes and Return of the Joker and it was excellent. I plan on watching the whole series on DVD soon.

I haven't seen it in a while but I liked the girl in the Royal Flush Gang. And I wish they'd done more with her.

I would have also like to have seen more stuff with the JLA.

Yeah, after "The Call", I could have stood for some more with the JLU. Maybe get to see more from Micron and Barda, or a few new members, some of their rogues, etc...

Granted I didn't get to see the third season, and probably missed a lot of second season, but I really loved the show. The cyberpunk setting appealed to me immediately, but then the characterization and continiuty hooked me.

However I hated that it left so many things up in the air, especially why babs hates bruce? and what the hell happened to dick?

Having Drake become Joker....... that was all kinds of unexpected awesome though.......

Dana never made an impact on me. And to be honest, maybe it was just a function of the tone of comics that were coming out at the time, but I really had the sense Max was gonna die at some point.

I really liked Terry's relationship with 10 from the RFG. She was a character they could have done a lot of things with. Perhaps of course, it would have come across as a rip of Black Cat, but as other have said, parts of the show and character channeled Spider-Man.

I would have like to have seen a Flash.

Did anyone watch the spinoff The Zeta Project? It was pretty cool but I wish it would've had more ties to the DCU.
