The Animated Series, a gritty cartoon with some excellent art and voice acting.

TAS, definitely. Not only was it a great series but it also spawned some decent to excellent (i.e. Mask of the Phantasm) feature-length animations as well.

It also had a Mr Freeze that was actually awesome and Harvey Quinn.

I never really got into Beyond. A shame really, because it had some original stuff in it.

Got that theme blasting in my head just watching that GIF.
Alfred rocked in TAS too. Best Alfred ever.

I was a huge fan of Batman TAS when I was growing up. Possibly the best thing to ever come out of the Batman universe.
However, I recently caught the Batman Beyond film, "Return of the Joker" and thought it was incredible. Actually on a level with TAS, most likely because it tied up alot of loose ends from the original cartoon.
Now I'm very curious to see some of the Beyond episodes, since I never really saw more than a handful...

Few superhero shows could match TAS. I'd put The New Batman Adventures (AKA Gotham Knights) above Batman Beyond in winna's list.
This thread has gotten me all inspired to pop in a TAS DVD and relive the memories. Eh, screw it...It's getting late.

Yeah, I don't know why there's so much hate for New Batman Adventures. In some ways, I actually prefer it to TAS, and I don't think that the quality of episodes changed at all.
Pitt Clemens recently lent me all four Seasons on DVD, and I had no idea that Season 4 (aka Gotham Knights/NBA) had such good stuff in it. The animated adaptation of the Harley Quinn "Mad Love" is one of the best pieces of animation ever created, and the "Legend of the Dark Knight" where three kids argue about what Batman is really like (one kid imagines the 1940's comical style, and the other imagines the classic Frank Miller comic "Dark Night Returns" ). And much, much more.
Also, Tim Drake is the better Robin.
And Grayson is awesome as Nightwing. 'Nuff said.

And not a faggy network-controlled sidekick like Dick Grayson was while the TAS was on FOX.

Slightly OT but related enough: I'm really glad BBC Four is showing the Adam West series. I've seen only a couple of episodes (and the film) and it's great to be able to tune in regularly.
