It would be easier to count down the other way

As several comments point out on this thread, it would be easier to make a list (that would also be shorter) of Batman: the Animated Series episodes that weren't good.

I love the Catwoman stories, actually, though "The Cat and the Claw" is less good than others, mostly because I didn't think Red Claw and her organization were that interesting. I love "Tyger, Tyger," though; I had it on VHS, one of few episodes I remembered to tape, and watched it until the tape died in the flood.

"Fire from Olympus" was funny only because Maxie Zeus thought Batman was Hades. And Batman did a hilarious o.O face to that.

And, no, haven't finished BB. Or the Justice League stuff that actually finishes it. Maybe today!

I once got interviewed for my local paper while I was at the public library about the poet laureate and I was asked what my favorite poem was. I said "Tyger, Tyger," mostly because BTAS made it the easiest one to remember for me. It's a gorgeous poem, but really, it's the Batman effect. I feel you on it.
