PiercingMetal Thoughts: I’ll keep this brief. I have been on and off with this show for a couple of seasons but really enjoyed the goings on with the third season. I am still not crazy about the introduction of so many villains in the Batman mythology because as lifers to the caped crusader can attest, a lot of characters became who they were BECAUSE of Batman’s existence. Not before he came to don the cowl and cape. Anyway, I will be programming this season as well and will likely catch up on the premiere the following morning. It’s been a little busy over here but what about you? Are you still watching or have just started or even given up on it entirely? Let me know down in the comments section below.
