Item Type: DVD Movie Item Rating: NR Street Date: 12/06/05 Wide Screen: no Director Cut: no Special Edition: no Language: ENGLISH Foreign Film: noSubtitles: no Dubbed: no Full Frame: yes Re-Release: no Packaging: Sleeve Amazon.com: The fourth and final volume of Batman: The Animated Series is a little uneven but still encompasses some great episodes. Start with "Over the Edge," a nightmarish scenario in which Commissioner Gordon dedicates himself to hunting down Batman following the death of his daughter, Batgirl. "Critters" is a tribute to Japanese monster movies, "Mad Love" recounts the origin of Harley Quinn, and "Legends of the Dark Knight" animates both a '50s-styled Batman adventure as well as a scene from Frank Miller's Return of the Dark Knight. This run of 24 episodes has a lot of Batgirl, too little Nightwing, and a lot of the new Robin, Tim Drake, whose origin is explained in "Sins of the Father." Drake gets a mostly solo adventure, Batgirl teams with Supergirl, and there's still a sense of fun, with goofy humor that includes an appearance by the Three Stooges as the Joker's henchmen. Guest voices include Sela Ward as Calendar Girl and Tippi Hedren, and Mark Hamill continues the excellent work as the Joker that created some early rumors about his taking the live-action role in the sequel to Batman Begins. By this time, Batman had become part of the Batman/Superman Hour, so viewers can choose the opening sequence for either that or the original animated series. That, as well as the unbalanced number of episodes in the seasons (e.g., the first season of the animated series was 60 episodes), is why Batman: The Animated Series was released in volumes rather than as single-season sets. --David Horiuchi Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Average at best!I brought the batman series in order and the 4th season is pretty average. No riddler episodes was a big letdown as he was one of my favourites characters.The episodes also have this annoying red sky in the background all the time which is wierd. I don't know why they changed so much for this season but it wasn't for the good no wonder it got cancelled. Oh and the dvd extras were abysmall to say the least. Rating: - The box worth buyingI'm a huge Batman fan and when the Animated boxes started showing up here in Brazil, I went crazy and bought them all. But, weird enough Vol. 4 was only released here in 2009 (thanks to Warner Home Video Brazil, an example of how NOT to treat your audience). I've been watching the previous boxes slowly over the years (I'm currently on the last two DVDs from Vol. 3) and I always felt like: "Man, this show was waaaaaaaaaaaay better when I was a kid". A lot of the animation was way, way ... Read More Rating: - Some of the BestI can't decide if this is my favorite set of Batman: The Animated Series, but I am sure that it contains some of my favorite episodes. The tone set in episodes like "Over the Edge", "Old Wounds" and "Mad Love" set the stage for high points to come in the more adult-oriented work from the Dini/Timm team in Batman Beyond and Justice League, while "Legends of the Dark Knight" provides the ultimate in fan service. We're also treated to some fun episodes like "The Ultimate Thrill" and "Girl's Nite Out" ...

Read More Rating: - A few clunkers but so many classicsSeason 4 of Batman: The Animated Series had some changes and took some chances, some paid off, some did not. The focus of most of the series is on Batgirl, Nightwing and Robin with Batman becoming more of a father figure for his Bat Family. But some of the episodes spotlighting Batman are true classics. We have Mad Love, which gives the origin of Harley Quinn and her insane love affair with the Joker. We have Girl's Night Out with Supergirl and Batgirl taking on Poison Ivy and Harley. ...
