The buzz on that musical episode is outstanding, by the way.

This show is just a fan's dream. They have really done a lot to keep the spirit of the silver age alive in these episodes. I'm not saying every episode has been perferct, but they are usually very enjoyable and I look forward to seeing what they will do next.

Wow! That is very cool! And a Season One collection is coming very soon, too, I guess...
Comic Vine was at Comic Con and interviewed a number of the voice actors including Deidrich Bader, Kevin Conroy, Clancy Brown, Andrea Romano and a bunch of the others from B & B and about Public Enemies. (They also did some other very cool interviews as well...)

The Kevin Conroy interview was very cool - he raved about how sweet a gig he's had for 18 years, and Deidrich Bader talked about how fun and cool Brave and the Bold is and the musical episode - he did tease something about Julie Newmar. The Phantom Stranger and The Spectre in the same episode! Awesomeness!

I love how they're doing this cartoon, now if the Cartoon network can get it's head outta it's *** and stop mucking around with the schedule we'll be good to go

Excellent casting! This show is just great in both its retro approach and choice of characters. The mini homages to the '66 show are a perfect fit too!

Great news!
