Batman : The Animated Series was and is the GREATEST television series of ALL-TIME, imo ( animated or not ). It WAS my childhood, quite frankly. And I WILL own the whole DVD series someday ! Lol !
Personally, and I may get flamed for this, nothin', and I mean NOTHIN' beats the first movie with Michael Keaton. Michael Keaton will ALWAYS be Batman to me. Through and through. I do, however, like the newer movies as well.
