I believe it has been confirmed that the last 13 eps will be the ones we heard are being commisioned earlier this year. So the show will end with 65 eps.
Still sad to see the show going though. Its been beyond entertaining.

Actually, it looks like they have 26 more episodes left. tv.ign.com/articles/110/1108218p1.htmlI'll be sad to see this show go. I've really enjoyed it. With any luck, the new CG Batman cartoon will be good.

Ok..two fold here. I'm sorry for you guys that dig the toon.
On the other hand, when the first thing we hear from your staff is that you consider us adult fans a bunch of "baby-men" that live in our parent's basements, and then proceed to make a cartoon that is essentially a fanboy loveletter to the golden age of comics?! Gimme a break!
Good riddance in my book. Bring on a real bat-toon.

But then I got to watching the show and I understood what they were going for. It doesn't excuse what was said, but I think it would have been better if you would have just turned the other cheek Matt. Maybe then, LoG would still have a thriving community.

Yeah, I get what you're saying. But A> Matt doesn't turn the other cheek..he learns from the first slap and doesn't welcome more B> Traffic went down on all the bat-sites after there was no network batman toon. That is what killed the online furvor. Cartoon Network is cool, but it doesn't bring in Kids WB ratings, you know? C> Matt is talking about himself in the third person again. Very bad sign, lol. What killed the bat community here was the Batman going off the air and the fact that the site was down for a time back in 2007. I did cover BATB for a bit and guess what? No one cared. It doesn't have half the fanfare that 'The Batman' did. On any site.

I'm not a watcher of the animated Batman shows, so forgive me if this question has already been answered. What is the new Bat-toon?

What is the new Bat-toon? There's another thread for it. EDIT: Actually, there's not another thread, but there is a new CGI Bat-toon in the works planned for 2011.

I enjoyed the show immensely. It was smart writing, imo, and the designs were great. This could have been on the best Batman figure lines if it were done right. Again, thanks Mattel.
As far as traffic on Batman sights, it goes alot deeper than The Batman being replaced by BATB.
These are my thoughts, and also the thoughts of other fans/collectors as I do stay in contact with some of the guys Ive forged friendships over the years.
The Batman. This cartoon was "replaced", lets say, before the show itself was even cancelled. It became a Justice League show. They didnt focus on the rogues gallery or supporting Batfamily and decided to go to the other heroes. The whole "cant use this character or that character" crap is rediculous. WB needs to get their heads out of their a:::s and get their ducks in a row. A Batman universe is a Batman universe. The use of characters should not be limited due to a movie or a comic or a cartoon or a tv show. It wasnt like this is the 90's, it doesnt have to be like this now.
cartoons in general. How about just a solid Batman cartoon. Why does everything now have to have the entire DCU involved and Batman and his rogues gallery is just a part of an ensemble cast? Batman has arguably the best and largest group of foes and supporting characters in all of comics. BTAS didnt rely on the rest of the DCU, why does every cartoon incarnation and DTV have to now?
The comics. This is a dying medium. the lack of talent involved in the comic industry isnt helping things either.
The movies. Nolan is not a god. There are alot of fans who dont really adore his version of Batman. They just dont find it interesting enough to keep their attention or love strong enough to keep their activity in the virtual batworlds alive.
The toys and merchandise. mattel killed this. Their lack of creativity, terrible distribution has single handedly killed the toy collecting hobby when it comes to Batman.
There are afew other points that are also contributing to this lack of fan involvment on the sites and plain lack of support from the Batfan community in general.
All a new cartoon, or a new video game, a new movie will do is bring in the general browser who is looking to chat about the newest flavor/popular topic of the month. Its not the true, life long fan. They have been driven away by DC, WB, and mattel. Catering to the splash in the pan fans is not what will keep your longevity. The sooner they, and site owners, realize this, the stronger the Batman fan community will once again become. If its not already too late.
Matt, that last point wasnt for you directly, but as a generalization to all online fan sites.

This was a cool show. I loved it to death. The toys were awesome at the beginning, but again Mattel with the distribution problems made Batman toy collecting no longer fun. The Vehicles for this line were really cool, though, and Mattel finally stopped doing those abhorring vehicles which had no cockpits. Ugh. I hope they don't do the same thing in TDKR.
When is the final episode if I haven't missed it already?
