Cal and Liam return with the beginning of the end of their The Zeta Project coverage with the 5th to last double feature , this week with the episodes "Ro's Gift," which sees the return of a group of villains that debuted in Batman Beyond and "Lost and Found" which features the previously unseen origin stories of our lead protagonists. The hosts discuss a disappointing return of villains, how the episode was originally a Batman Beyond crossover and how the series continued to be hamstrung by a lack of action. With the second episode they discuss a surprisingly fun and well-written episode by a DCAU writing veteran, some fun visual easter eggs and some unique music and recognizable voice actors from the DCAU all combining to result in one of the highest-rated Zeta episodes to date. All of this and a preview of next week's Elseworld's review and much more on this week's DCAU Review!Please Consider Supporting the Podcast:Become a monthly or one time supporter of the pod at https://buymeacoffee.com/DCAUReviewSubscribe to the pod on Spotify or Apple Podcasts and please consider leaving us a 5-star reviewSubscribe to our new YouTube Channel Support the pod by picking up some merch at our shop https://dcaureview.myspreadshop.comFollow us: Twitter/X @DCAUReview Instagram @DCAUReviewRo's GiftFinal Scores:Plot: Cal: 4/10 – Liam: 3/10Visuals/Animation: Cal: 5/10 – Liam: 4/10Music: Cal: 5/10 – Liam: 5/10Voice Acting: Cal: 6/10 – Liam: 5/10Bonus Point: NoneFinal Tally: Cal: 20/40 – Liam: 17/40Lost and FoundFinal Scores:Plot: Cal: 8/10 – Liam: 9/10Visuals/Animation: Cal: 7/10 – Liam: 8/10Music: Cal: 6/10 – Liam: 6/10Voice Acting: Cal: 8/10 – Liam: 8/10Bonus Point: NoneFinal Tally: Cal: 29/40 – Liam: 31/40
When you've reached the end, you can't help but want to look back and that's just what Liam & Cal do this week as they take a second gander on the pod at the Batman Beyond season one episode "Golem." The hosts look back at their original scores and decide with the benefit of hindsight and nearly 8 years of reviews if they were too harsh or too lenient on the episode featuring the alliterative Willie Watt and his giant robot friend. The hosts discuss the dynamics lifted from classic 80s teen classics and horror films, the unique musical pieces from Shirley Walker, why this episode changed the direction for the Beyond writers going forward and a little sneaky easter egg that may just explain the Golem's design. Plus the hosts talk another entry into the "Worst Dads of the DCAU" and much more on this week's all new DCAU Re-Review!Please Consider Supporting the Podcast:Become a monthly or one time supporter of the pod at https://buymeacoffee.com/DCAUReviewSubscribe to the pod on Spotify or Apple Podcasts and please consider leaving us a 5-star reviewSubscribe to our new YouTube Channel Support the pod by picking up some merch at our shop https://dcaureview.myspreadshop.comFollow us: Twitter/X @DCAUReview Instagram @DCAUReview

It's back to the future for the next several weeks as the Good brothers make their return to the DCAU with the penultimate episode of Batman Beyond which features a crossover from The Zeta Project in the episode "Countdown." When Zeta shows up to Gotham, hijinks ensue as the Mad Stan straps a bomb to an oblivious Zeta. The hosts discuss how this plot mirrors an earlier episode of Batman Beyond, expectations for the episode being set higher due to those given the writing credit and it being the original intended series finale and just what tone this episode could have taken to be a more enjoyable episode. The hosts also discuss animation that while fine suffers from a lack of action, music by the late, great Shirley Walker and a voice cast of both series' regulars.

Iris takes a page out of Alex's playbook and proves that sequel episodes here on the Couch aren't just reserved for award-winning animes: following our previous episode on 2001's Justice League, today the gang presents to you 2004's Justice League Unlimited, the eighth and final series of the DC Animated Universe and cherished childhood Saturday morning cartoon for everyone here not named Michael. We can confidently say that this is the best superhero cartoon out there, with immense narrative range, superb voice acting, fun fight scenes, and great messages for children and adults alike. Plus, there's more heroes, more villains, more interpersonal banter, and even some Batman Beyond baby! It's so impressive for a show to have aged so gracefully and proved that not only did it improve upon every series that preceded it, but it became so much more than just a sendoff for the DCAU. Content warning: SPOILERS, strong language.
A new month means the Good Brothers are moving on to another DCAU series, spending the next few weeks in Dakota and Static Shock. This week's episode is the sequel to one of the best Static episodes featuring the African superhero Anansi the Spider, in "Out of Africa." The hosts discuss the difficulties in following up an episode as great as "Static in Africa" with a sequel, the expanded rogues from African folklore and music that really drives home the native music for our guest star. Plus, the hosts talk about the very Sharon-centric story, where Osebo might have gotten his wealth and the question of the week inquires about the fictional place of Marvel heroes within the DCAU. All of this and much more await you on this new episode of the DCAU Review!Please Consider Supporting the Podcast:Become a monthly or one time supporter of the pod:https://buymeacoffee.com/DCAUReviewSubscribe to the pod on Spotify or Apple Podcasts and please consider leaving us a 5-star review Support the pod by picking up some merch:https://dcaureview.myspreadshop.comFinal Scores:Plot: Cal: 5/10 – Liam: 6/10Visuals/Animation: Cal: 7/10 – Liam: 7/10Music: Cal: 7/10 – Liam: 6/10Voice Acting: Cal: 9/10 – Liam: 8/10Bonus Point: NoneFinal Tally: Cal: 28/40 – Liam: 27/40

The Good Brothers are continuing to revisit the crossover that kicked off the DCAU with a look at the second part of The Batman/Superman Movie aka "World's Finest, Part 2." The hosts proceed through the second installment of this episode and discuss how breaking up a three-act story into three smaller parts dilutes some of the story telling, as well as how producing a 66-minute feature took its toll on the production crew. Liam & Cal also talk about what may have led to some of the most un-TMS-like sequences in the episode and how Tim Daly's performance drives home Superman's feelings about Batman's sudden Metropolis residency. All of this, an update to how the hosts feel about their scores and much more await you on this week's second look on the DCAU Review!Please Consider Supporting the Podcast:Become a monthly or one time supporter of the pod:https://buymeacoffee.com/DCAUReviewSubscribe to the pod onSpotify or ApplePodcasts and please consider leaving us a 5-star reviewSupport the pod by picking up some merch:https://dcaureview.myspreadshop.com

Liam and Cal are back to their regular format this week taking a closer look at one of the defining and most memorable events in DCAU history with a re-review of Part I of "World's Finest." The Good Brothers look back at the kickoff to the DC Animated Universe and dive deeper than they did nearly 7 years and 323 episodes prior and discuss the thematic setup that mirrors a movie plot, and for good reason. They also talk about the animation by TMS and how it influenced the look of the episode, how pop culture references can be used without being distracting and some theories and easter eggs for later DCAU plot threads. The hosts also talk about the fantastic use of multiple legendary musical pieces as well as the who's who of the DCAU voice actors lining up to voice our all-star cast of characters.

Cal & Liam are kicking off a new month with a return to a format they first introduced last year where they recap a pair of DCAU characters and pit them against one another in a simulated contest to see who they believe would come out on top in their second edition of Meta-Brawl. This edition features the "Main Man" Lobo in a battle against John Henry Irons aka Steel. The hosts talk about the comic book origins of both characters before covering their DCAU story arcs, theme music, the voice actors that brought both to life as well as DCAU tie-in comic appearances and merchandise. When all is said in done the hosts go through their final scorecards and declare one fighter their winner of the second Meta-Brawl. Who will come out victorious?

Cal & Liam are once again back with another season three Justice League Unlimited review, this week tackling the Flash-centered episode "Flash and Substance." The hosts talk a bit about the 85th Anniversary of the Flash character in 2025, how this episode acts as a love letter to the Scarlet Speedster and his DCAU persona, why this episode has a meta commentary on gritty and light-hearted superhero stories and a ton of fun Flash lore and DCAU easter eggs. Plus a discussion on the all-star voice cast featuring several DCAU voice acting legends, music that perfectly accentuates the wackiness of the plot and why Batman understands brand recognition being important. All of this a uncharacteristic disagreement on one of the category scores, and a preview of next week's Bonus Episode coverage on this week's all new DCAU Review!

Liam and Cal are back at it again with their first review of 2025 and a return to Justice League Unlimited for the month of January. This week they continue on in Season Three of JLU with the episode "To Another Shore." On this episode, the hosts discuss the unique "embargo" that helped shape this episode into one that would alter the course of the remainder of the series, why character embargos are so confusing and what influenced the various limitations on JLU over the three seasons. The hosts also discuss an episode with a plot right out of Super Friends, the unique illustrations and whose art directly influenced the work by Bruce Timm, a meta musical moment for the first time in the DCAU and a rather distracting casting choice for one of the episode's minor characters.

The Good Brothers are taking their annual Christmas vacation to recharge for 2025, but in the meantime they're bringing you one last bonus episode for 2024 with a review of the Matt Reeves' Batman universe tie-in show, The Penguin. The hosts give their bird's eye (re)view of the 8-episode season, discussing Colin Ferrell's Oz Cobb character along with his incredible supporting cast. The hosts talk about the psychology of characters with sympathetic flaws and trauma but lacking in any redeeming qualities. They also discuss the twists and turns of the season, a DCAU voice-acting legend playing a major role, how this will influence the recently delayed Batman sequel and more baseless discussion by way of the Speculation Station™.

Depending on your current location the weather outside may or may not be frightful, but a new episode of the DCAU Review is always delightful. This week the Good Brothers are discussing the second full-length feature film of the original Batman: The Animated Series run with the chilling title "Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero." The hosts discuss a bit of the history of the movie, how its' predecessor Mask of the Phantasm cast a large shadow, where the main crew had moved on and how the movie came about based on some attempted corporate synergy. The hosts discuss how the plot attempted to focus on Robin and Batgirl with mixed results, the use of the most state-of-the-art CGI animation that 1997 had to offer and why the movie's delay caused some confusion on whether the movie was canon to BTAS at all to a young Cal and Liam. The hosts also discuss the decision to start from scratch with the soundtrack vs. sticking with the established themes, another new voice actress for Batgirl and the ultimate legacy of this film in the DCAU zeitgeist.

Greetings, dear listener, and welcome back to "Jump on the Bat-Wagon" with James and Brian, where we watch through the entire DC Animated Universe from start to finish in the controversial airdate order, to experience these shows the way human beings experienced them in the far-gone days of the 1990s. The twist? Brian has never seen any of the DCAU. Will he become a super-fan like James or regret his decision? This week's episode: "Beware the Creeper" "The New Batman Adventures" Original airdate: 11/7/1998 Nutty, crazy, out of his gourd, no one knows what to think of Jack Ryder, a reporter gone mad who turns into the insane Creeper. One thing's for sure, Batman's not amused, nor is the Joker who believes Creeper is stealing the clown's Gotham-wide act of insanity.

Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down to review both parts 1 and 2 of the episodes, SHADOW OF THE BAT.Alex and Will talk about the introduction of Batgirl into the DCAU and how these episodes exceeded their expectations. Highlighting the music, its film noir feel, and the rich background art. They also talk about Two-Face's obvious hideout and his obsession with the number two. As well as the weirdest slice of prison pizza you've ever seen and Batman's niche collection of giant coins. Our hosts also cast Barbara Gordon/Batgirl in their fan-casted universe and Will talks Lord of the Rings.
