Another predictable, fairly dull episode, but at least the opening is good and Cheetah is introduced, ending is pretty cool as well.

"Mediocre"

By macabre190788, Oct 17, 2011

So this episode isn't as bad as "Sword of the Atom", but it's not very good either, it's the trinity episode, that's right, Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman have to face Lex Luthor, Joker and Cheetah who have just teamed up. Seriously, an episode about 3 villains, two of which we've seen before, teaming up to take down 3 heroes we've seen before? That's it? Well, yeah, it's just substandard stuff, the next episods is even worse, the series is in a slump right now and needs to recover badly. Whats so clever about this episode, I mean, I enjoy watching Cheetah make her debut, even though I prefer the all furry version, she looks weird with a human face. Okay, the original part is supposed to be that Joker goes up against Wonder Woman, Lex Luthor goes up against Batman and Cheetah goes up against Superman, great, but isn't the point of the show to feature heroes fighting villains they normally wouldn't? So that's not new or fresh. The heroes are captured and, yes, they talk to the villains and manage to turnthem against each other, who saw that coming? Oh, right.

The opening with the baseball game is easily the best part and quite funny, little Frankie Miller is rooting for the heroes. The ending is pretty nice,I liked the robot Batman suit. I don't know what's going on with the show, they really cannot afford such lacklustre episodes in it's final season, that's what happened to The Batman as well, it just went through the motions in it's final season. Batman: The Brave and the Bold has at least some cool new ideas left, and some of the episode before this and the previous one have been some of the best, including the best in my opinion. I just hope that after the next disaster "Bold Beginnings", we can get back to the awesome.moreless
