Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

Pretty sure it had three seasons; although, iirc, only two are on DVD.

Batman: The Animated Series was indeed the best I ever seen on TV and that and the X-men Cartoon was epic.

Without the DragonBall and Death Note BtAS would likely have been nothing like it was. The popularity of those two shows allowed for a stylistically different and more grown up animated series.
Without DragonBall and SailorMoon a lot of good animated shows would not have existed in america because those shows only were allowed to come here because of the popularity of their predecessors.

I'm sorry...what? In what way, shape, or form did Death Note pave any paths for BtAS? I'm not following you.

Although I'm pretty sure the television series came before the comic strip, the British animated series Danger Mouse should rank up there with the best of them and DM had one heck of a long run on television from 1981-1992.

Was the Teen Titans animated show based on a comic?
Maestro Mavius - Infinity
Capt. Biohazrd - PCSAR
Talsor Tech - Talsorian Guard

If the television series came before the comic strip, then Danger Mouse can't be part of the list, as the list was about series based on comics.|

To others in the thread...Batman is #1 for lots of reasons, being that good is one of them, for one thing B:TAS is what lead to JLU. However, what Batman did was do a show that was set up for adults.
This wasn't intended to be just a kid show, this was created to be a late night show for adults. That's why its original air time was not early morning.
Though I think the 90's Spider-Man should of been in the list myself.

Yep...this list is alright  |
Have to agree with the OP in switching #4 and 5...Superfriends might have paved the way, but JLI was amazing.
Glad "The Tick" made it on there. If only they could ever release The Tick vs. Season 3 on DVD.
Arc# 92382 -- "The S.P.I.D.E.R. and the Tyrant" -- Ninjas! Robots! Praetorians! It's totally epic! Play it now!
Arc # 316340 -- "Husk" -- Azuria loses something, a young woman harbors a dark secret, and the fate of the world is in your hands.
I don't agree that Batman: TAS is far back on the list of important, they did a lot of stuff that children's cartoons just didn't do back then. It was also probably the first children's cartoon that, for the most part, handled its subject matter in a mature manner (yeesh, say that 5 times fast). I can't think of any other cartoon before B:TAS that had nearly as much depth.
