The DC Animated Universe Weekly Review - Batman: The Animated Series

 Batman: The Animated Series

Episode 65

The Worry Men

 


It’s episode 65 and the creators have fulfilled their initial order of episodes for the series.  This episode is okay but seems a little phoned in.  The Mad Hatter makes little men that hypnotically manipulates people to do stuff in their dreams.  He controls Veronica Vreeland into giving out these Worry Men to all the rich people in Gotham.  Bruce Wayne gets affected by the Worry Men and is robbed like a bunch of other rich folks in Gotham.  That puts Batman on the trail.  He traces it back to the Mad Hatter, stops him, saves the day. It’s a fine episode.  Nothing horrible, nothing exciting.  This same gimmick reappears in the Batman Beyond episode that introduces Spellbinder.  We’ll talk more about that when the episode comes up.
