    Yes, that opening almost made me cry. A perfect combo of the 60s TV show and the Dick Sprang Batman, my two favorite "pre-modern" interpretations. The Batmobile even made the same sounds as the Barris one!

    I loved the rest of the episode too. I liked how Batman was more or less unaffected by Robin's whining, like most parents are when their kids complain of not being treated like adults. It was nice and subtly understated.

    A lot of this story was based on Batman #316, and Crazy Quilt's later appearances when he sought revenge on Robin, only to take it out on the brand new kid, Jason Todd (the pre-crisis nice version)!

    The Bat-Mite episode looks to be a blast! Two Bat-treats in a row. Then after that, looks like Catwoman shows up in the teaser with Green Arrow, while the bulk of the episode has Batman, Red Tornado and Major Disaster. Seems Tornado makes a young sidekick android for himself, who looks like the Tornado's original red and purple get up.

        I need to see that Riddler in an epsiode badly. Riddler was my favourite villain as a kid and I had two mego figures and would act out his origin story thanks to that "Batman from the 40s to the 70s" book..

          Check next week's episode B. Riddler at least makes an appearance in Bat-Mite's dream.

              The Batmite episode looks really fun, even takes a poke at the fanboys:

              YouTube - Batman: Brave and the Bold: Batmite at the comic con! Bat Mite!

              Nipples on the bat suit joke
              YouTube - BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD Legends of the Dark Mite ( Bat-Mite ) Costumes

              Too many references to list:

                James tucker hit it out of the park with this one. he finally got to do his animated batman 66 for a whole story. the 50's batmobile in place of barris's in the ride to gotham was great,
                the hand shake at the end (like the opening 66 show animation),
                the e2 robin suit,
                the shakespeare bust opens the bookcase to the batpoles
                onelines and "holy" bat phrases
                just awesome

                these get better and better I can't wait to see batmite

                            Thanks George, I knew it felt familiar but couldn't figure out why.

                                I finally saw the Batman and Robin episode. That was a great episode. I almost felt like I was watching the 66 show.


                                Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?
