You can't be serious. There's like 10 episodes that suck.

Lightning in a bottle, my friend. BTAS was a one-in-a-million success that launched the DCAU.

The Forgotten, I've Got Batman In My Basement and Tyger, Tyger are my go-to awful episodes.

The episode was crap and cat-Selina was also crap. Gargoyles did it better.

While I can't comment on the quality, the episode count is because of syndication. Basically, the way syndication worked was that they'd produce 65+ episodes of a series, then any local network that wanted to pay could show the series (65 episodes because that's 13 weeks of episodes monday-friday, meaning each episode would only have to repeat four times a year). Syndication was a good business model for cartoons in the 80s and 90s, but it died off as broadcast stations started to move away from kid's blocks. It was only a self-sustaining business model because so many local broadcast stations paying a reasonable amount to air the series would quickly add up enough to make a profit.

The alternate production model was 13/26 episode seasons, which were much lower risk for non-syndicated cartoons, because it allows the network to budget each batch of episodes based on popularity. If a show flops after 13 episodes, they aren't stuck with 39 more.

Economic bubble, the success of Disney's syndication initiative, and Tim Burton revitalizing Batman as one of the biggest summer blockbusters.
