So I finished Batman:the animated series and The New Adventures of Batman so I decided to share some top. Here to start the worst episodes IMO.

10.The Demon's Quest part 1 and 2

I have a problem caring about Ras As Ghul. I don't hate the character, this is just unlike many other Batman villains he never excited me. The plot need to be really good to makes me cares and that story isn't. So Batman past most the first act going to other country with Ra As Ghul to found clue who kidnapped Talia and Robin and basically everyone know the answer. That could be fine if the plot was at least fun to watch. Then Batman rejet Talia's love (also here Talia is just a sex objet when in her first apparition showed how capable she was) and the second part of the plot is Batman and Robin (who do noting useful except giving a clue to Batman) fight Ras As Ghul who want saves earth by killing lot of people because huh....why the fuck he cares so much about earth? That never really explained. Joker's motivations to be evil are deeper than Ras As Ghul's !

9.Prophecy of Doom

Boring generic story where a con-artist scam really stupid rich people who believe all bullshit they learn for a fake prophet.

8.The Lion and the Unicorn

That interesting to learn Alfred's old past but the plot is basically a James Bond movie and I don't care about James Bond. Also Red Claw suck as a villain.

7.The Underdwellers

The earlier episodes that treated about social messages aren't very good or subtle thought for what I understand part of the problem is the censors removed stuff from the stories so that not all the creator's fault. Still, the villain is so over-the-top that ruin the plot for me. For comparaison, just look at Mad Love that treat about domestic abuse in a very serious and mature way. Fuck, the JOKER is more subtle in that episode than the Captain Hook wannabe.

6.The Cat and the Claw Part 1 and 2

I have a trouble about the way Catwoman is written in her earliest appareances where she is more an anti-hero than an anti-villain IMO and she is more interesting in the latter role than the former. Also Red Craw show up as the real villain of the story. Catwoman's introduction should only have her and Batman as main characters.

5.Tyger Tyger

Catwoman get kidppaned by a Doctor Moreau wannabe. BORING!!!

4.The Forgotten

Another forgettable earlier episode with a social message. The vilain is over-the-top and several plot points bugs me:

1.Bruce Wayne goes help at a homeless shelter. Okay, I loves Bruce is a caring people but why the hell he is going here? Don't he have a company to run? Also rich party to go so his playboy image doesn't get ruin? And you know all the Batman stuff? (Do he has times to slept, for that matter?) Bruce gives money to charities, no go helping himself!

2.So Bruce goes undercover and get kidnapped by like two generic goons and lost. No just no.

3.He get hit so hard he has amnesia and I just don't care.

3.The Last Laugh

Another ealier episodes. Look, maybe I should be nice to those episodes because clearly the team were trying different things until they found their voice but sorry the episode just boring me. Joker has no motivations besides stole stuff. Kinda like in the 1950s but at least he was fun in those old stories. Here, this is just boring more of the thing. Like half the episode is a big long fight between Batman and Joker.

2.I've Got Batman in My Basement

The Penguin's first appearance in the show and he has trouble fighting kids. No just no.

1.Critters

A very 'special' episode. For what I understand, you each loves the weirdess of this one or you hates this. I personally hated this. That not funny and I don't want sees Batman fights giant mutated animals.
