Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are back to talk about another anniversary. This time it\u2019s the finale of a real classic, Batman: The Animated Series, which just celebrated its 25th anniversary.
\nBatman: The Animated Series was created by Bruce Timm, Paul Dini, Mitch Brian, and Eric Radomski. It aired on Fox Kids from September 5, 1992 to September 15, 1995. During its 85-episode run, the series garnered critical acclaim for its aesthetics, storytelling, and maturity. The show features the voices of Kevin Conroy as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Loren Lester as Dick Grayson/Robin, Efrem Zimbalist Jr. as Alfred Pennyworth, Bob Hastings as Commissioner Gordon, and Robert Costanzo as Detective Bullock. Other notable voices include Mark Hamill (yes, that Mark Hamill) as the Joker, Arleen Sorkin as Harley Quinn (who was created for the show), Adrienne Barbeau as Selena Kyle/Catwoman, and Melissa Gilbert as Barbara Gordon/Batgirl.
\nIn this podcast, Josh and Aaron discuss their past with Batman: The Animated Series, the finale itself (which features Star Trek: Voyager and Orange is the New Black's Kate Mulgrew as the villain Red Claw), and the series\u2019 rebranding as The Adventures of Batman & Robin late in its run. They also discuss the show\u2019s status as one of the greatest cartoons of all time and its relationship to The New Batman Adventures and other DC animated shows.
