Favorite Silver Age Action shows

[Dante Bunny]

Mines is Batman Beyond
Batman and Superman Adv.
MIB




Until I see these show again, my favorite is DBZ.

Mine is B:TAS. It didn't make the action too far-fetched and blended it seemslessly with the plot.

All the other DC animated shows are a close second. Nothing else intrests me, though.

That's a very good point. I was watching MotP recently, and it struck me how superior the structuring was to the later stuff (even something as great as RotJ). It wasn't, "Okay, here's a fight scene--better get into that mindset," and then, "Whoops, quiet emotional scene...time to calm the ol' adrenaline." The action wasn't a setpiece or an interruption to the story...it was something that was happening, just like everything else, and it was usually integral to the plot (unlike something like BB, where they probably could have chopped out half of every fight scene, and it wouldn't have hurt the overall episode much).

But yeah, I always liked the more classical style of B:TAS, both the writing and visually. Guess I'm just that kinda guy.

Batman all the way. Everything in this show just clicked. All of it. They did such a stellar job on making it realistic and adventurous.
