I hate this show so much it is campy and is based on Batman in the sixties. All Batman fans hate the way this show portrays Batman (Green Arrow too).

What Parents Need to Know
About Batman: The Brave and the Bold
Parents need to know that this animated superhero series has plenty of action but isn't too likely to set off any strong parental alarm bells. The violence is cartoonish rather than explicit, nobody really gets hurt, and crime never pays. The series shows Batman working with a variety of other crimefighters, and he often discusses how these partnerships work, providing an interesting insight into the day-to-day life of a superhero.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about partnerships. Batman has starred in many comic books, TV series, and films, often working alone, sometimes with a sidekick, and occasionally as part of a team. This series pairs him with a rotating cast of super partners. What makes for a good partnership -- crimefighting or otherwise? Sometimes Batman works with another well-known hero, while in other episodes he's clearly mentoring someone with less experience. Do you think one type of relationship (peer vs. mentor) is more effective than the other? What happens when two headstrong people disagree on how to handle a problem?

It is a pretty decent show, it is actaully kind of educational for kids who don't like teamwork. this show shows that "two heads are better than one" is actually true.

Batman: The Brave and the Bold
RSKKZ Rating: 10 for Fantasy Violence. What Rodni Says: 8+? Are you kidding me? I would not recommend this cartoon to anyone under 10! I am usually pretty liberal about my ratings, but this would REALLY freak little kids out! Nobody ever dies, though, but there is constant talk about death and some people in it who have already died. Also, there is constant action, which may be intense for little kids. Overall, just because it's a "cartoon for kids" doesn't mean that it isn't violent or scary. I'm a little surprised that CSM didn't touch on how scary it could be because I noticed that the first time I watched it.
