On Alfred’s source of information:
“Alfred has a thing with Tassels Laverne?”

My comment-  Most of the other villains hit their stride finding their characters in only a couple of episodes, but I feel like Caesar Romero took until this point to really nail the Joker, but man when he got there, did he get there!

'Oh no he isn’t!'”

*pauses playback, stops cold and stares at screen.*


“The Contaminated Cowl” / “The Mad Hatter Runs A Foul”
On the commissioner answering Batman’s guess that the Mad Hatter escaped from jail a while ago:
“Why don’t they tell Batman as soon as a criminal escapes instead of waiting weeks till they do something?”

On the infamous pink cowl:
Anabelle- “That’s beautiful.”
Rosa- *laughs hard enough to fall off the couch.”

On Batman leaving his cowl on in the Batcave:
Anabelle- “But it’s radioactive…"
Rosa- "And pink.”

On David Wayne, even for this series, going over the top and chewing the scenery as the Mad Hatter:

“Women of America beware! Don Juan penguin is on the loose.”
