I liked it better in the early seasons; the retool to bring things closer to the "standard" Batman depiction felt kind of sudden and forced. In particular:
  • The subplot of Batman slowly coming to trust Batgirl as a partner is leapfrogged by introducing Robin and having Batman trust him instantly.
  • Did you really need to replace Clayface with a different guy? This show's version of Clayface was one of its best characters.
  • I liked Detective Yin. Granted, I liked Batgirl too, and you'd have to introduce Commisioner Gordon along with her (at which point he would overshadow Yin).
  • Gordon sets up the Batsignal even though he already has a more reliable way to communicate with Batman.

I liked that future episode with all those homages to the comics, movies and The Dark Knight Returns.
