Batman The Animated Series
 

Does anyone know what the DVD plans are for the rest of this series? I wonder if they’re planning to do the ‘New Adventures Of Batman & Robin’ and then ‘Batman Beyond’ after Vol. 3 of the original ‘Batman The Animated Series’ is released on DVD?

They plan to release all of it. However, I'm not sure what their plans for Batman Beyond might be. I assume they'll put that out as well, but I don't know if it will happen at the same frequency with which the current Batman sets are coming out. In other words, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a gap where we have to wait a while longer for Batman Beyond.

I think they might make Batman and Robin part of the current volumes of Batman sets, since the show was basically the same show even tho it went though many name and style changes...

Batman: Gotham Knights will more than likely be part of Volume 4 of the Batman sets since the current episode numbers show that they will be done with Batman:tas/batman and robin with volume 3. and there's only about 24/25 episodes of Batman: Gotham Knights. So more then likely they will have a few episodes from Batman & Robin in that volume also.

That's my thought as well... that we'll close out 2005 with 4 sets out there, which comprise the entirety of Batman, Batman & Robin, and Gotham Knights.

Does anyone know of a website out there that has a comprehensive list of all of the episodes/movies/spinoffs etc? Sort of an easy-to-review checklist of everything in the DC animated universe from 1992's Batman onward? (It can get confusing, with some of the compilations out there.)

I don't care what they call it, I just want MORE! This is the best animated show ever!

I went to TV tome.com and it looks like the Animated Batman’s breakdown like this:

85 Episodes of Batman The Animated Series (season 3 was renamed ‘The Adventures Of Batman & Robin) – Ran from Sept. ’92 to Sept. ‘95
24 Episodes of Batman: Gotham Knights – Ran from Sept. ’97 to Jan. ‘99
52 Episodes of Batman Beyond – Ran from Jan. ’99 to Dec. ‘01

So after Vol. 3 of BTAS, we could potentially be looking at another three sets of Batman if we’re lucky !

This is awesome news!! Found this info on tvtome.com:

Is Gotham Knights the same as The New Adventures of Batman and Robin? I've never heard of GK before.

That seems odd, since there is only about 29 episodes left before the Gotham Knights. It would make sense that they next set would be the rest of Batman: TAS and B&R. Then the fourth set, which finishes animated Batman is the Gotham Knights series.

Gotham Knights was when they went back and redesigned all the character amd introduced Tim Drake as the new Robin. I believe it happened after the first or second season of the Superman animated series.

I don't mean to go off topic but I'm planning on picking up one of these sets-- what one do you guys recommend, volume 1 or 2?

If you are a fan of the series then get both!!

I like volume 1 since it has my favorite episode which introduces Mr. Freeze.

I think I just filled the cup!

Thanks, JustInsane. I should have figured they were the same, as Gotham Knights sounds like a good title for a show with as many costumed heroes as villians.

Yeah, I've got to think that info on TVTome is wrong. There's pretty much exactly enough episodes left for one more volume before Gotham Knights. Unless they're releasing them as smaller, 2-disc sets?
