    I'm watching Dexter's Lab right now. The glorious Mock 5 episode, to be specific.

    It holds up so well. I want more of this. Samurai Jack is next on my list, is there any other old cartoons I should be rewatching in my elderly (20s) years?

    Batman: The Animated series is amazing and Powerpuff Girls holds up pretty great. Also Hey Arnold has some really great episodes.

    The best two I could recommend would be Gargoyles and Avatar: The Last Airbender

    Also, if you enjoy Batman: TAS (which you should, unless you're a gat dang terrist), Batman Beyond is really good, too.

    Spoiler images for upcoming episode (not this week's, next week's):
    It looks like Hasbro has released another version of their puzzle game from a while back, but this time it's dedicated to the upcoming Hearts and Hooves Day episode.

    The really cool thing about it? Screenshots! You can either go play the puzzles and discover them yourselves, or check them all out after the break!

    Batman and Batman Beyond are further down my list, but they're on there.

    Batman the Animated Series may just be the single best adaptation of Batman out there. Not even kidding.

    Also I still have fond memories of Darkwing Duck.

    Also it's not an older cartoon, but Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated is really well written. It does have some awkward romance though.

    "May just be"? It is the best adaptation of Batman out there (well, the comics can rival it, but none of the series or movies ever did).
    It also spawned one of the greatest portrayals of The Joker. Ever.

    It is the best written take on various mythologies (Greek, Norse, Native American, even Shakespearean lore) that I have ever seen.

    Not even just in the states, but anywhere.

    It has really good casting (Including a BUNCH of people from Star Trek), good animation, pretty great action choreography, and overall a really unique and well-told story.

    Just avoid the third season. ABC killed it after season 2.

    A thread or two ago, this was me, in your place, Dark Raven. I was encouraged to watch and I was very happy with my decision to.

    DO IT.

    All true, and it's also why Batman: Arkham Asylum and City are so damn good.

    It's good clean 80s nostalgia with an occasional heaping dose of "What is going on on my TV screen here?"

    Mask of the Phantasm is, I maintain, the single greatest feature-length film about Batman.

    Also Darkwing Duck was awesome. Love that show.

    Definitely my favorite Batman film.

    While I don't think that's going to work long-term over the 3-4 months a thread is up for, I'm still trying to narrow down an opening topic for the next one.

    Keeping in mind that it'll shift almost every week to keep up with new episode developments. It didn't last weekend because I forgot.

    I received so many requests to do an MLP poster to go with my movie car poster series over here, so I finally sat down today and had to learn a few new illustrator tricks.
