For an airdate watch order: bit.ly/watchdcau UPDATE: Justice League Infinity - Takes place before “Justice League vs the Fatal Five” P.S. I have no idea what happened at 25:36 but I can’t get it to not export like that so have fun (Also, yes, “Justice League” is supposed to be in white font, not yellow)
I like getting some precontext to the stuff I watch. Someone else has connected the dots for me and it helps me find new stuff to kill some free time with. Im probably gonna re-watch brave and the bold/watch it linearly for the first time. Sometimes I try not to watch every show. I rather be on UA-cam and learn about other shows so when I'm truly bored I can pick a random show to watch. So I really appreciate this channel doing what it does. Have a nice day 💫🤘
Thank god the creative team realized that a teen _batman_ doesn't mean teen Bruce Wayne, and thus we got Terry, can't imagine how bad it would have flopped
even though I love batman beyond It was wasted potential not to have clark hang up the mantel of superman and have conner become the superman of batman beyond. It would have been amazing to see him and terry fight together
@Shawn Lamb I mean that's that's completely different situation Teen titans had been off the air for nearly a decade and resurrecting a show after that long that feels the same is nearly impossible
@@conradlorgar5508 I think so but even if he wasn't it wouldn't really matter as in batman beyond we've seen tons of characters that were never in any other show
Before the term "DC Animated Universe" got popular, I remember comics and products of the time would classifying the shows as either the "Timmverse" as "DC Adventures". If we had to divorce ourselves from 'Animated Universe', personally I'd pick 'Adventures'.

Sorry Return of The Joker would have to take place after basically everything else. Which doesn't really work, it should really be non canon, but whatever.
@@slik_sean6346 I don't know what you're talking about. Do you mean the episode Epilogue? It has nothing to do with Return of the Joker. Ms. Martian takes Tim's form in JL vs the Fatal Five which means he's still active. Harley also appears in that movie which means the flashback scenes in Return of the Joker can't have taken place yet. This is why it shouldn't be canon, because it fits so poorly into the rest of the canon. Tim goes missing for weeks, Batman has dozens of heroes he could call on to help him but he doesn't call any of them. Like dude, I'm pretty sure one of your magic friends or Flash or Superman could find Tim pretty quickly. Tim was also a member of some version of the Titans bit none of them seen to care about their teammate going missing. Instead he calls on Barbara who hasn't even been active as Batgirl since the New Batman Adventures. The last time we saw her she hung up her cape and went off to school in Mystery of The Batwoman so it seems highly unlikely that the whole scenario could have played out the way it did. It just makes no sense in the larger canon.
The idea of Static not being as popular as some of the other DCAU series is so crazy to me. He was my favourite superhero growing up and I really missed the show when it was gone
The Static Shock show was *huge* here in Brazil when it originally aired. I really think more people here watched Static Shock than the two Justice League shows and Batman TAS.
I think it is because it never aired in Asian countries where dcau was really really popular In my country we never got static shock while every other dcau show was aired and dubbed in our language ( even Zeta project) I have watched static shock and loved it
I am a Brazilian,and here static shock is known by everyone,it’s even more popular than Justice league and Batman TAS,it was on during lunch time and everyone here remembers running home after school to watch it.
This is a video that every DC fan needs to watch, the dcau in the 90s and 2000s was a significant part of my childhood, and I'm glad it was. Thank God for blu ray
Static is definitely popular here in the United States but he is not used as much in comics. He got a reboot comic in the early 2010’s which got cancelled after a few issues and recently got another reboot that I believe is still ongoing
I’d just like to add something: I own, right now, a BtAS interactive (you could push buttons to add sound effects) children’s book with four separate short stories written just like the episodes - and in the Timm BtAS art style. 1) A Riddler story about him abducting a kid (and rigging him with explosives!). This one has actual detective work and riddles. 2) A Mr. Freeze story about Mr. Freeze bringing a new ice age to Gotham City in order to bring Ice Age animals (like the mammoth and sabre-tooth) back to life. 3) A Mad Hatter story about him trying to take control of Gotham City with hats and gas. Alice is mind-controlled in this one. 4) A Penguin story involving the Penguin stealing some cat statue that Catwoman was obviously interested in. (I remember very little about this one)
@@dcauwatchtower The book is very special to me as I only owned 4 episodes of BtAS and this book. They were so good that I have loved Batman ever since.
Wow, just found this channel today! I've been interested in re-watching the DCAU recently so I guess that's how I found it. But let me say: your sense of humor, editing, and overall quality of the video is amazing! There were many laugh-out-loud moments in this video and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I just dropped a sub, keep making videos because this was great!
I wish more youtubr channels adopted the 6:30 approach to ads, it doesnt interrupt the flow of the video and brings some nostalgia to when we used to watch tv
Because one of my uncles knew of my obsession with these DCAU shows as a youngster, I got a series of about 6-12 consecutive Gotham Adventures comics for Christmas that were all fantastic. It was just another step toward my love of not just superhero animation, but of the comics as well.
I had bought " The Batman-Superman Movie " and i had rent the crap out of the Batman Beyond VHS tape when it hit the video stores. I also used to own VHS tapes with BTAS episodes. I owned: 1) Fire & Ice 2) The Penguin 3) The Joker 4) The Riddler
The Batman/Superman Movie is what mostly introduced me to Superman's entire lore, Lois, Lex Luthor, and such. I knew who Superman was but never cared about him until that movie and see how cool he was compared to Batman.
I consider Young Justice the only DC animated show to match the quality of golden age of the DCAU(Batman 1992 ,Superman 1996 ,Justice League/Unlimited,Batman Beyond,Static Shock) Honestly,characters like Ms Martian,Aqualad, and Red Arrow/Arsenal are some of my favorite DC superheroes and my introduction to them was this show.
yes! I agree but im a little confused because I thought young justice was a part of the DCAU if not in what order should I fit that into, like if I were to watch young justice when should I watch it, after what show?
Super succinct vid on how to get introduced to the tiers of canon (and non canon alike), and def a great intro video if I ever had to show newcomers. Hella good job databois.
I have the whole Timmverse on VHS with and without commercials thanks to my dad than bought them all on dvd and now have them on streaming services. I will always have them lol
Random comment, the JLU episode "Flash and Substance" made me want a Flash series once (Might have been fun). I also once thought a Green Lantern show would have been fun, similar to the one we later got in CGI form more or less. Oh well, the road not taken. Great video by the way!!!
Yeah,I love this universe but it could’ve done what the movies did or what marvel did where they did separate shows as well like Wonder Woman,green lantern and flash
This is the first video I’ve seen from this channel and I’m absolutely IN LOVE. Excited to get to know you guys (especially this particular host) and watch what you guys do next! Great video ❤️
Man, I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH!!! I've been trying for YEARS to make a canon timeline for this universe! I would spend DAYS AND DAYS, trying to figure out this very complex puzzle, and you have given me a map!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!! God bless and have a thwipping shway day!!!
You’re welcome! Glad it’s super helpful for you! We’re always working on the DCAU timeline-I would HIGHLY recommend our “Vanishing Point” and “History of the DCAU” playlists!
Also, holy crap, I just noticed that James has the awesome JL snowglobe as a part of the new background display! I was really ready to shell out the money for that this past Christmas season, but forgot. Those things are super rare, but, if anyone is going to have one, it may as well be James!
Thanks for this, I have gone completely insane and tried to do as much overall DC media, and this definitely helped with trying to figure out how to do DCAU
i am new to the watchtower. but not the dcau,and i must say i absoluty love these videos and dont know how i never came across them before .i have binge watched most of them, as i thought i was the only insane person who asked themselves these questions about dcau timelines and continuity . I LOVE THE WATCHTOWER best channel on yt
These forgotten WB shows were actually very popular in Brazil. Project Zeta and Supershock really stuck to the kids almost just as much as Justice League
@itachi uchiha Series and as the series go on watch the movies related to the series if you look up on UA-cam when to watch what you should be in good shape.
@itachi uchiha Well Watch Batman the animated series first and then if u go to the end of this video you can see a list that tells you exactly what to watch and When
I'm still mad we didn't see conner kent as superman in batman beyond. Could you image how amazing it would be to see him and terry fight together, especially since there both cadmus projects made from batman and supermans dna and made to replace them?
Love your videos. Ive been sick with covid so ive been binging rewatching all your videos. It got me thinking have you all ever written down a warch order of the DCAU for us all to watch? Ive followed a few fan list but you guys would have the best. Either way keep up all the wonderful work.
Thanks! Well, there's the one at the end of this video, for chronological order. We also have a podcast going called "Jump on the Bat-Wagon" where I'm taking my buddy Brian through the entire DCAU from start to finish in airdate order, so he can experience it like kids did in the '90s (which he was around for but never watched the DCAU). Our airdate order is available at bit.ly/watchdcau. Get well soon!
Funnily enough, I think the Gorilla Grodd episodes were some of the only JL episodes I DID have on tape. I think Cartoon Network had a Justice League marathon once, so I just filled up a tape with as many episodes as I could. Also, Zeta fans are even worse off in Australia. We still haven't got a DVD release here! It and Static Shock are the only two DCAU shows we can't get. A few years ago they finally released Batman Beyond on Blu-Ray here, so I thought that maybe we'd finally get Zeta, but nope! 😣That show was my first experience with the pain of having a beloved show cancelled.
Just for fun: here in brazil, the dcau shows as been reprized so many times, that they became classics for 90s and early 2000s kids. and static shock is a phenomenon, so much that, after batman, it's the dcau favorite super hero for many people.
Very comprehensive video! but I guess that's to be expected from the biggest DCAU fan. Do you have any advice on what DVD releases of these shows are the best ones, and which to avoid? I need to know what plastic circles are best at having Batman on them.
Thank you sir. Even tho I watched all of these movies already (and many times), sometimes I had no idea what was going on....btw. highly recommend Batman Under The Red Hood movie for those who haven't seen it yet. masterpiece
I know it's a big ask, as it's sure to be a tedious endeavor to play them, but I think it would make for a great video if you went through all the DCAU flash games and try to will 'em (dafoe) canon. If those BK comics can be canon, slag it, so can these!
Crisis on Two Earths is one of my big favorite DC movies. I also liked Gods and Monsters so I'll probably plop them in my DCAU rewatch anyway. I'm not really one to binge a single series all in one go, I get a bit bored. I miss regular television programming. Kind of wish theyd re-air a bunch of shows or at least streaming websites could let us make playlists to watch episodes of multiple shows in staggered order. Like a bespoke tv channel of sorts. oh well, I can just do it manually. Thanks for linking me here. Creeping my way through BTAS and STAS.
If I didn't recommend it already, we do a podcast called "Jump on the Bat-Wagon" where I'm taking my buddy Brian through the entire DCAU--he's never seen any of it before! We're going in airdate order, so after BTAS, we start overlapping multiple shows that were airing at the same time. May be the way you'd best enjoy experiencing the shows as well!
7:47 simple for season 3 combine it with something so messed up and dark that you’d have to give zeta guns because everything makes the idea of “oh no that’s a gun in a kid’s show” look tame by comparison.
Just looked at the DC solicitations and found out that a second season of Batman the Adventures Continue is coming out This comic will introduce The Court of Owls into the DCAU and will see Batman teaming up with Deadman to investigate Mayor Hill's death and how the two are connected This series starts releasing digitally bi weekly in May and then physical issues in June

Spot on with Cartoon Networks poor marketing of their shows during the time of Justice league... I definitely missed a few episodes because of lack of communicating
I do indeed love to watch this during online class since this is far more important to watch. Oh yeah, this is also for the algorithm beast. EAT BUDDY, EAT.
Watchtower did you know it was gonna be a justice league game for ps2 that was canceled? (Prototype video are in youtube) You can talk about that in next video. Hello if you post this e.e
And then there's the board games! I've got Rogue's Gallery, the Dice Game, Almost got 'm, Gotham under siege, and of course Shadow of the Bat on Kickstarter coming (hopefully) soon!

@itachi uchiha Well Watch Batman the animated series first and then if u go to the end of this video you can see a list that tells you exactly what to watch and When
I'm still mad we didn't see conner kent as superman in batman beyond. Could you image how amazing it would be to see him and terry fight together, especially since there both cadmus projects made from batman and supermans dna and made to replace them?
That very welcomed notification of every sunday. Awaiting the batman the adventures continues timeline video
31:22 for James singing ‘One Step Ahead Of The Game’
He's going off
Love your videos. Ive been sick with covid so ive been binging rewatching all your videos. It got me thinking have you all ever written down a warch order of the DCAU for us all to watch? Ive followed a few fan list but you guys would have the best. Either way keep up all the wonderful work.
Thanks! Well, there's the one at the end of this video, for chronological order. We also have a podcast going called "Jump on the Bat-Wagon" where I'm taking my buddy Brian through the entire DCAU from start to finish in airdate order, so he can experience it like kids did in the '90s (which he was around for but never watched the DCAU). Our airdate order is available at bit.ly/watchdcau. Get well soon!
Funnily enough, I think the Gorilla Grodd episodes were some of the only JL episodes I DID have on tape. I think Cartoon Network had a Justice League marathon once, so I just filled up a tape with as many episodes as I could.
Also, Zeta fans are even worse off in Australia. We still haven't got a DVD release here! It and Static Shock are the only two DCAU shows we can't get. A few years ago they finally released Batman Beyond on Blu-Ray here, so I thought that maybe we'd finally get Zeta, but nope! 😣That show was my first experience with the pain of having a beloved show cancelled.
This is amazing. I love the dedication you guys have.
I’m just hardcore dc fan refreshing my memory 😀 thanks man good vid
Oh man, that kids wb commercial hit me right in the memory and nostalgia, thanks for this and for that nostalgia trip!
I wish they bring back The DCAU with new shows and Movies for 2021 or 2022
I plan on doing a chronological order run on the series and movies it's been a long time since i watched alot of these shows
Thank you! I’ve watched a few of them already but I wanna star over this is really helpful🖤
This is what I’ve always been looking for let’s gooo!!
Good to know I'm not the only one that taped every episode of JLU.
Just for fun: here in brazil, the dcau shows as been reprized so many times, that they became classics for 90s and early 2000s kids. and static shock is a phenomenon, so much that, after batman, it's the dcau favorite super hero for many people.
Very comprehensive video! but I guess that's to be expected from the biggest DCAU fan.
Do you have any advice on what DVD releases of these shows are the best ones, and which to avoid? I need to know what plastic circles are best at having Batman on them.
Do you mean which, like, specific releases of the shows? Or which shows themselves? To avoid
I honestly appreciate the cartoon network commercial intros & outros cashing in on that sweet nostalgia
Thank you sir. Even tho I watched all of these movies already (and many times), sometimes I had no idea what was going on....btw. highly recommend Batman Under The Red Hood movie for those who haven't seen it yet. masterpiece
Thank you so much. This is exactly what I have been looking for. Although I started with JLU, I’m now gonna go back and watch it all in order😂
Thanks now I can watch this in order as much as on hbo max!
Thanks! I was trying to think of simpler ways to introduce the DCAU to friends!
you deserve a like for this effort
great video
This video was so helpful, nothing on google helps. Subscribed and satisfied
What about Green Lantern: The animated series? It used the same art style and was created by Bruce Timm. And as far as the timeline, it fits I think.
We’ll be analyzing it in a future “Will It Canon?” episode for sure!
It sure gets complicated with Justice League Action and Young Justice Season 4, this.
6:23 an ad showed up when you said the commercial break I can not believe it
Almost as if by design! ;)
I know it's a big ask, as it's sure to be a tedious endeavor to play them, but I think it would make for a great video if you went through all the DCAU flash games and try to will 'em (dafoe) canon. If those BK comics can be canon, slag it, so can these!
Crisis on Two Earths is one of my big favorite DC movies. I also liked Gods and Monsters so I'll probably plop them in my DCAU rewatch anyway.
I'm not really one to binge a single series all in one go, I get a bit bored. I miss regular television programming. Kind of wish theyd re-air a bunch of shows or at least streaming websites could let us make playlists to watch episodes of multiple shows in staggered order. Like a bespoke tv channel of sorts. oh well, I can just do it manually.
Thanks for linking me here. Creeping my way through BTAS and STAS.
If I didn't recommend it already, we do a podcast called "Jump on the Bat-Wagon" where I'm taking my buddy Brian through the entire DCAU--he's never seen any of it before! We're going in airdate order, so after BTAS, we start overlapping multiple shows that were airing at the same time. May be the way you'd best enjoy experiencing the shows as well!
Static Shock was nice to watch 👍🏾
7:47 simple for season 3 combine it with something so messed up and dark that you’d have to give zeta guns because everything makes the idea of “oh no that’s a gun in a kid’s show” look tame by comparison.
Just looked at the DC solicitations and found out that a second season of Batman the Adventures Continue is coming out
This comic will introduce The Court of Owls into the DCAU and will see Batman teaming up with Deadman to investigate Mayor Hill's death and how the two are connected
This series starts releasing digitally bi weekly in May and then physical issues in June
Yup
I love this so much thank you for doing this! I’ve always wanted to know the order of the DCAU.
while watching this i sent it to my podcast cohosts one of whom is now 17 minutes behind me as i hit the end
This is the one binge I'm afraid to go on
Channel that fear into courage
Best comic based animated universe ever!
BIRDS OF PREY IS AN UNDERRATED GEM. THAT IS ALL.
Honestly never finished it

I really needed to know in what order i need to watch and read everything to understand the canon. Thank u.
the part about zeta was the best
Despite some other DC media taking place in different universes across the DC Multiverse, this universe is it's own
Can you assume the fifty years always from now say in the dcau reffers to the 90ntys? That solve everything
@Watchtower Database,
You forgot the Batman Beyond Unlimited/Universe comics/graphic novels.
It’s my birthday and I’m so happy because I got Batman the animated series and batman beyond complete blu rays
Noice
@@ykomat6860 thank you
Good physical media, especially on a birthday.
@@ChrisConnolly-Mr.C-Dives-In yeah,I’m fine with streaming but dvd has a lot more for me
I used to read all the capstone dc super hero books as a little kid, i would grab like 8 of them from the library at a time lol
Spot on with Cartoon Networks poor marketing of their shows during the time of Justice league... I definitely missed a few episodes because of lack of communicating
I do indeed love to watch this during online class since this is far more important to watch.
Oh yeah, this is also for the algorithm beast. EAT BUDDY, EAT.
Pay attention in school, lad!
Watchtower did you know it was gonna be a justice league game for ps2 that was canceled? (Prototype video are in youtube) You can talk about that in next video. Hello if you post this e.e
I have been waiting for this vid
30:03 James’ Not So Short Show / Mike’s Super Short Show crossover when?
And then there's the board games! I've got Rogue's Gallery, the Dice Game, Almost got 'm, Gotham under siege, and of course Shadow of the Bat on Kickstarter coming (hopefully) soon!
Oh there’s WAY more DCAU stuff out there (games, toys, etc.) but we focused on stuff with narrative content
