Well yeah but, Batman and Robin (which is the most egregious recent example of the Batman franchise being turned into a turd sandwich) isn't bad because it's kid friendly, it's bad because it's bad.  All-Star Batman and Robin is just as terrible, and it's decidedly un-kid friendly.  Bullshit is bullshit, regardless of

Eh, it's not that great.

Batman: The Animated Series was awfully kid-friendly, and everyone sort of agrees that it's one of the best things anyone has ever done with the character.

Perhaps we can all agree to never use the term "batloads", in any context, ever again.

People like to focus on the prurient subtext about Batman's relationship with Robin, but the simple text of that relationship is enough to get him thrown in jail  Bruce Wayne is actively involved in turning an adolescent boy (who is not his child) into a vigilante.  Robin is constantly in life-threatening danger

Broderick has so thoroughly melded with his inner shlub that I don't think he could convincingly pull off late-period Walt.  But Cusack is intriguing.  There is a level of darkness there that has too often been put to the service of shitty material in his recent career.  He was probably too big of a star for the show

I did.  Piece of shit provider.  Looks like I'm stuck with downloading the episodes from "iTunes" and all of my hilarious Breaking Bad-related comments will go sadly unread at 11 PM on Monday night.

If you follow this joke down its own self-created wormhole, you end up in the Mirror Universe where Walt is clean-shaven and not a self-serving, egomaniacal piece of shit but instead a simple, goofy father to 3 boys of various ages with a wife who is exasperated by him but still loves him very much.

Walt seems to have gone to the Jack Shepherd School of Beard Maintenance.
