All 7 Batman: The Animated Series Rules DC’s Newest Batman Show Has Broken So Far

:0:1

Summary

Batman: Caped Crusader disregards the rules from Batman: The Animated Series to explore adult themes.
The series features things like drinking, hand guns, and drugs, creating a realistic and dark Batman world.
Caped Crusader breaking conventions ensures its world is different to The Animated Series, despite similarities between the two shows.

Batman: Caped Crusader is now available on Prime Video, where the DC Universe series has been allowed to break many of the rules that its predecessor, Batman: The Animated Series, was not. The series is an original take on Bruce Wayne's story, with Caped Crusader making several surprising changes to Batman's lore. Created by J.J. Abrams, Matt Reeves, and Batman: The Animated Series' own Bruce Timm, this new series, made for streaming, was able to bypass many of the conditions they had to meet for the previous series to be eligible to air in programming blocks for children.
In a post on X from 2018, Mark Hamill shared an illustration by Bruce Timm that directly broke every rule that Batman: The Animated Series had to follow. For censorship reasons, the cartoon was not allowed to show extreme violence, drugs, alcohol, nudity, handguns, religion, child endangerment, characters crashing through plate-glass, or punches directly to the face. The shared image is a fun encapsulation of this, but notably, the new Batman: Caped Crusader directly breaks these rules. While this applies to some more than others, seven of these nine rules appear to be broken in the series.
