Absolutely.

I hate that I spoiled something cool, but maybe now a few people will go see for themselves so it was worth it.

As for JL vs. JLU, it's a bit of a toss-up really.

The first season of JL was definitely uneven, they were still trying to balance action and the characters and having everything make sense in the DCAU.

The second season, though, was fantastic. I think they really hit it out of the park. But if you like huge amounts of characters, JLU is probably best, and I enjoyed it more. I just wished they carried over the hour long format from the JL show, I think it would have helped some of the plots. But then again, you can't go wrong with Dr. Cox riding around in Wonder Woman's cleavage.

And really, any of the B:TAS seasons are good to pick up. Volume 4 might be a bit "kiddier" in look, but it also contained one of the darkest episodes in the whole Batman run: "Over the Edge"

Were there 4 seasons of BTAS?

It's been so long, that I've forgotten how many seasons of B:TAS were made and how many seasons of The Adventures of Batman & Robin, and how many of New Batman Adventures, etc.

According to Wiki there was 1 long B:TAS season, one long season of AB&R, and 2 short NBA seasons.

I just tend to group them all together and call them "seaons" since they all contain the same packaging in DVD form.

OK. I'm curious because my wife gave me volumes 1-3 of BTAS for Christmas, and I was wondering how many more there are. I guess I can just look on Amazon.

I believe one more, containing the New Batman Adventures episodes, and maybe any Adventures of Batman & Robin episodes left over from Vol. 3
