Season Two

The Adventures of Batman & Robin title screen.

Because of the success the show was enjoying, while the 65 episodes of the first season were still airing, the Fox Network executives ordered a second season of 20 more episodes. The second season featured Robin more prominently and was titled The Adventures of Batman & Robin.

The network reduced the series to airing only weekly, Saturday mornings. Five of the twenty episodes initially aired in May of 1994, then 10 more were released in September-November of 1994. Once these fifteen episodes had premiered (the final five were held back until September, 1995), the weekday slot was restored to repeats of the entire run, with the first season's episodes given the second season's title, The Adventures of Batman & Robin, for all remaining Fox showings and a few VHS releases.

These episodes and the last nine of the first season were released in the correct production order as part of the Batman: The Animated Series Volume Three DVD boxset.

The New Batman Adventures

The New Batman Adventures logo.

Three years after the second season of Batman: The Animated Series was produced, the show was moved from the Fox Network to The WB Network, which was airing and producing Superman: The Animated Series. These shows were merged as part of an hour segment called The New Batman/Superman Adventures. The WB Network wanted more episodes of Batman: The Animated Series, so 24 new episodes were produced, which featured a different format and more focus on Batman's supporting cast.

In addition to the network's demands, the producers decided to make the show match Superman: The Animated Series' graphic style, so all the characters and objects were redesigned as "animation friendly" with fewer lines, usually referred to by the fans and creative staff as the "revamp" (or alternately, the "new look"). A similar graphic style was used in the rest of the DCAU later on.

The DVD boxset of the series is labeled Batman: The Animated Series - Volume Four (from The New Batman Adventures), most likely to establish its connection with the original series.
