Despite being a cartoon and airing on predominantly kid-themed channels, Batman: The Animated Series has been one of the enduring depictions of The Dark Knight since it made its television debut. Set in dreary Gotham City, Batman: TAS is much more than a Saturday-morning cartoon; it is a continuous drama that rivals any live-action series. And in Volume Three, it doesn’t disappoint. Volume Three contains 29 episodes and there are some changes from earlier volumes. First, it features Robin much more than before. Whereas Volume One had Robin making only cameo appearances, now the Boy Wonder plays a bigger role. Also, there are more bad guys. Sure The Joker, Two Face, Poison Ivy and the gang are back, but now Batman must also deal with new characters like Bane, the “enhanced” wrestler and Baby Doll, the former child actor. All in all, Batman: TAS Volume Three gives the viewers what they want—Batman and lots of him.Read full review
These are the best batman episodes any true fan could own. Vol 1-4 are worth the money stores put on them, (50 to 30 retail) but you could get them cheap on ebay. These episodes are violent and action packed but not too violent for young kids. Every episode has a great story, plot, and characters in them. Also when any new villian appears it will show what caused the villian to hate batman or his/her history, there wont be a time where a villian just appears out of nowhere and you dont know why he/she wants revenge. The animation is drawn to look like real people not like todays cartoons where the character has for example 4 fingers and a triangle shaped head.
My granddaughter just turned three years old and she is a huge fan of the entire Batman: The Animated Series. She asked to watch it daily. With this fourth set of DVDs she is in Bat-heaven. I must confess that after watching the series myself, I feel it is the best version of the Dark Knight in animation or live action.

If you're even just a casual Batman fan this is a must buy. It has the feel of Tim Burton's vision of the characters. The pacing and atmosphere is amazing. By this 3rd volume you can see the creators have gotten more comfortable with making this show. Scarface and Bane are introduced and are showcased with style. Original villians are on their decline however and some are already locked up in jail. Even so, this show puts new "kids shows" to shame.
Kids loved the first couple of seasons, and are really looking forward to this one!
