There was an animated series in the late sixties and seventies of Batman.  The
"TAS" has become the standard acronym for Batman: The Animated Series.  The
other series, btw, was made by Hanna-Barbara, bleh!

Probably not; I remember seeing references to the Gotham football team

Contraire again!

MTV is the single biggest EXPLOITER of independent animation.  It's 
only been in the last year that they've actually offerred money to
people to produce their promotional material in animation contests.

Before now, they would get hundreds of students/professionals to
create animations in a "MTV PROMO contest" and air as many of 
them as they saw fit.  The winner of the contest would get 
a relatively paltry sum -- and MTV would get many pieces
of fresh material.

I'm glad LTV is out there, and I respect MTV for having the BUSINESS ACUMEN
to promote the closest thing to avant-garde animation that they can afford.
TV animation is a business.  Nothing more, unfortunately.

The local store had the list of Batman episodes for the next two weeks.
I can give you the titles, but I have no idea what they're about. Note 
the reruns for those of you who are collecting tapes.

Week #5

10/5    Vendetta
10/6    Prophesy of Doom
10/7    Heart of Ice      (Rerun, but new to some areas)
10/8    Forgotten
10/9    It's Never Too Late (Rerun)

Week #6

10/12   Mad as a Hatter  (No points for guessing who the villain is.)
10/13   Pretty Poison (Rerun)
10/14   The Cape and the Cowl Conspiracy
10/15   Feat of Clay I (Rerun)
10/16   Feat of Clay II (Rerun)

The list comes from DC, but I don't guarantee that it's correct. Not
responsible if your station decides to swap episodes or show baseball
or anything along those lines. B{)

I love BTAS, but there's just no way I can manage to see it 5 times
a week, even with the VCR (I have to remember to set it, and fix the
tape, and put the antenna into a position where the picture will be
visible... :-P).

When I do miss it, I look on this group to try to get some idea of
what it was about.  There are already a couple of people who make it
a point to post a quickie review of each episode the day it airs.
Unfortunately, most of these reviews are written with the assumption
that the reader has already seen the episode.

I wonder, do you think you could include as part of your reviews a quick
synopsis?  Shouldn't be too hard, they're pretty short...

In "Willie the Whale" by walt Disney, Willie sings opera.  The first time he meets Tetti-Tatti he starts singing Figaro.  Willie's friend, a seagull, is helping Willie out by showing the audience (Tetti-Tatti and three sailors) when Willie starting singing both barratone and soprano, and then when Willie starts singing in a third range (I don't have a clue what it's called).  

I was wondering if anyone knew which opera that was with a three part harmony.  Is that still Figaro?

In a recent post on alt.tv.ren-n-stimpy, Billy West is said to do a great Ren

West doesn't need one.  One less cost!

Hopefully, this Saturday's show will be new just in time for my birthday!

The name of the group should be alt.tv.batman.tas because it would fit with the
alt.tv structure and says that it is the new series and not the old HB (gasp)

Excuse me?  Trying to kill Harvey because some rare species of rose was
destroyed during the construction of the penitentiary sounds pretty
irrational to me.

[Suddenly, I imagine a bizarre Poison Ivy/Bushroot team-up.]

It's not an obsession.  More like a penchant for birds and umbrellas,
like the way Catwoman likes cats.  BTW, he wasn't at Arkham.

Uh-uh, it goes the other way.  Scarecrow committs crimes to create more
fear-inducing chemicals.  He LIKES scaring people.

Being insane is the Joker's entire reason du etre!  :-)  He's insane and
a genius, and there is a very thin line dividing both.

Nice .sig.  Made for the occasion?  :-)

One other bit of nasty approved violence in this episode:  a guy gets his hand 
crushed out of shape.
     Hey, Robin is supposed to be around to keep Batman from going OVER said 
edge!  The was the whole point made when introing Drake a few years back.
     Dave Van Domelen, Joker's origin on BTAS is that he went insane watching 
the commercials shown during afternoon cartoons
