10 Reasons Batman Animated Is The Definitive Dark Knight

4. It's Timeless

All of the animated series' elements contribute to its timeless feel, both chronologically and literally. All seasons see almost constant repeats on popular children's programming, and their everlasting presence on on demand services such as Amazon Prime means that they'll be enjoyed for countless years to come. It never feels out-dated by any means, and bucks the trend of shows having their successors make them feel almost irrelevant. Like classic Looney Tunes and Scooby Doo, Batman: The Animated series will endure the test of time and remain first on the podium for comic book adaptations until/if it's toppled. All four volumes of the series feel just as fresh today as they were when they first released, and that's something rather rare for a cartoon to achieve.
