I've recorded every episode of JLU, but thats not my only favorite, I could not pick one single favorite out of all of them, but my 3 favorites are BTAS, STAS, JL/JLU

My favorite is B:TAS, followed by JUSTICE LEAGUE. Those are really the only two that I watched and liked. I never particularly cared for BATMAN BEYOND or S:TAS.

ANYTHING Batman in the Timmverse DCAU.

Batman: The Animated Series
The New Batman Adventures
Justice League / Unlimited (a really good cartoon - but I wouldn't have watched it if Bats wasn't in it, admittingly)
Batman Beyond

I didn't really get into the other stuff, like Superman and the deep JLU plots. I guess cause those parts of DC always seemed.....hokey to me. I just couldn't get into them - too sci-fi I guess (Batman is sci-fi as well, but not nearly as much as the others, most of it is based on gritty realism which is what I prefer). Batman and everyone in his circle - they hooked me. GREAT dialogue, great animation, very adult storylines, and just a great adaption that I prefer it to the comic. I like how it's treated like an ongoing storyline at times, too. So, yeah, anything Batman.

Although JL/JLU was an AWESOME cartoon even without Bats. My main gripe was that to me it always seemed like a continuation of Superman's story whereas Batman didn't get REAL closure in terms of where everyone in his universe went before BB came on.....and Superman seemed to get that through JL.

Another gripe of mine is when The New Batman Adventures focused more on action and less on compelling stories, which were in abundance in BTAS - some episodes show what it COULD'VE been and they didn't run off with it. And, BB was at its best in the first season. The next two seasons had too many one-shot villains and not enough darkness or development. But even when the cartoons were bad, they were good.

There, that's my review.

Batman & Superman were good, but Justice League/Unlimited is my favorite hands down. It had a larger cast of characters and a wider range of stories.

The second season of JL. If the first was like the second, the JL show would be much better.

Batman: The Animated Series (The New Batman Adventures)
Batman Beyond
Justice League (Justice League Unlimited)

I adree with the member BattyOne, I also like JL episodes where Batman appears, it's more interesting.

In Order

BTAS is still tops.
Justice League/STAS, I have NO ideal which is tops, both are cool, so there both share number 2. Hard to choose from them.

I go for JLU for 3rd.

BB
TNBA,
and than the 2nd tiers, SS, Zeta ete.

From best to least favoured:B:TAS,TNBA,S:TAS,BB,JL,JLU,SS,TZP.B:TAS was the best because it started it all and had the best stories you can find in this universe.

Batman Beyond

Then I'd say Teen Titans I guess since I:

Hated Superman:The Animated Series.
Haven't seen the Batman animated series in years, so I can't judge it.
And I never really got into or cared about JL/JLU.

My favorite was JLU though I never had the chance to record any of the episodes...

My Rankings:
1. Superman: TAS and JL/JLU (since in many ways JL/JLU feels like a continuation of Superman: TAS, it's hard for me to separate them)

2. The New Batman Adventures (I really enjoyed the extra emphasis on Batman's partners, would definitely love to see a solo Nightwing series some day)

3. Batman: TAS

4. Batman Beyond

5. Zeta Project

6. Static Shock

I only saw a handful of ZP and SS, but it wasn't interesting enough to keep me watching like the rest of the otherwise fantastic DCAU. I might give them another try again someday.

I'm actually kind of glad that happened. In my opinion S:TAS ended prematurely with only 54 episodes compared to Batman's more satisfying run of 109 episodes. So when JL/JLU picked up on stories established in S:TAS, I was glad that we got to revisit some of those characters again.

As for rankings. Well as stated above I like S:TAS and JL/JLU the most because that's where a lot of the DCAU continuity takes place. With BB S2 coming out on DVD recently I have a new appreciation for BB so that's my 2nd favorite. TNBA has always been fun whenever I watch it so that's a good 3rd. B:TAS was always a favorite when I was younger but now that I'm older I realized that it is not as good as I thought it once was. Great nostalgic value but actual stories were not the best in my opinion. The Zeta Project is all right at 4th. Not the greatest but certainly not bad. I liked it more when it got into the 2nd season. Static Shock brings up the rear as being my least favorite at 5th place. Stories were not interesting, villians were lame, and the music wasn't all that great. I'm also an action buff so compared to the other shows Static Shock's action scenes lack panache.
