Bat Tears

Let me sum up/splain:
Here are the top 10 “Batman the Animated Series” episodes most likely to make me cry. Alright, a couple are technically “New Batman Adventures.” And several folks make multiple appearances (I like Baby Doll, dang it). But here they are…

10) Harley and Ivy


“Somehow I don’t feel like my old perky self—somethin's missin.”

9) Love is a Croc


Baby Doll getting smacked by Croc. And then finding out he’s cheating on her.

8) Appointments in Crime Alley


“Good people still live in Crime Alley."

7) Harley’s Holiday



“I’m having a bad day! I’m sick of people trying to shoot me, run me over, or beat me up!”

6) Baby Doll


“I didn’t...mean to.”

5) Heart of Ice



“I failed you. I wish there were another way for me to say it. I cannot. I can only beg your forgiveness and pray you hear me somehow, someplace... someplace where a warm hand waits for mine.”

4) Harlequinade



“Baby, you’re the greatest.”

3) Two Face (Part 1)


Grace. In the hospital corridor. With the roses. Then his scream.

2) Mad as a Hatter


“I’ll cut that cowl off your neck before you take her. I’ve waited my whole lonely life for her!”


“Would not, could not...would not, could not...oh, could not join the dance.”

1) Mad Love (Pretty much the whole episode...I could throw a dozen other moments in here)


“Stop it, you’re making me confused!”


“I finally see that slime for what he is: a murderous, manipulative, irredeemable...
...angel!”
