A full year after the start of Batseason 3 of Batman on ABC, and a full 6 months after its demise, The Caped Crusader and The Boy Wonder (and, yes, The Dominoed Daredoll!) experienced a whole new run on television...in ink-and-paint form on Saturday Morning!
Filmation Associates' The Batman/Superman Hour went on the air for the first time on CBS, in a series of exploits which stressed action, and left the camp of the live-action TV series behind. After one more season as The Adventures Of Batman and Robin, the rights to DC Comics characters transferred to rival Hanna-Barbera, which oversaw several incarnations of The Dynamic Duo for 14 years: 2 guest shots on The New Scooby-Doo Movies on CBS in 1972 ("The Dynamic Scooby-Doo Affair" and "The Caped Crusader Caper" and the 7 editions of the long-running Superfriends on ABC, starting in 1973. (In 1977, Filmation would return briefly to DC Comics with The New Adventures of Batman, also on CBS, with our own Adam and Burt returning to the roles which put them on the map.) Then, in the wake of the popular big-screen Warner Bros. box-office blockbuster Batman in 1989 and its 1992 sequel, Batman Returns (both starring Michael Keaton), the then-newly-formed Warner Bros. Animation intervened to produce a long run of series featuring its own incarntion of The Dark Knight on FOX and (later) The WB: Batman - The Animated Series, The New Batman/Superman Adventures, Batman Beyond, and the current The Batman.
