Oct 10, 2012 · The beginning of the series is in the late 40's - early 50's. By the time TNBA and Superman came out it was the Late 50's - 60's. That explains why the characters have shorter skirts and wear t-shirts and jeans. In our reality, the 1960's became more casual with younger people.

Creation
The original series was partially inspired by Tim Burton's 1989 blockbuster Batman film and the acclaimed Superman cartoons produced by Fleischer Studios in the 1940s. Timm and Radomski designed the series by closely emulating the Tim Burton films' "otherworldly timelessness," incorporating period features such as black-and-white title cards, police blimps, 40s influenced fashion, 40s influenced car styling and a "vintage" color scheme in a largely film noir-influenced style. The series initi...
Acclaim
The Emmy Award-winning series quickly received wide acclaim for its distinctive animation and mature writing, and it instantly became a hit. Fans of a wide age range praised the show's sophisticated, cinematic tone, character depth and psychological stories. Voice-actor Kevin Conroy used two distinct voices to portray Bruce Wayne and Batman, as Michael Keaton had done in the films. This series also featured a supporting cast that included major actors performing the voices of the various clas...
A completely new version of the series was launched to match the more efficient animation style of Superman: The Animated Series. It also opened up possibilities for crossovers. All characters, vehicles and props were redesigned, with the exception of Two-Face. The New Batman Adventures, Batman Beyond and Justice League and Justice League Unlimitedall form a continuity that fans refer to as the "DC Animated Universe."
New characters
New villains like Red Claw, the ninja Kyodai Ken, and the Sewer King were invented for the series, but to little acclaim. From the episode "Tyger, Tyger" another character named Tygrus was created, whose story was probably inspired by the H.G. Wells novel The Island of Dr. Moreau and William Blake's poem The Tyger. Far more successful was the introduction of Harley Quinn, the Joker's sidekick who quickly became one of the most popular Batman characters and to this day still appears in various...
Bruce Wayne
One of the most noteworthy changes made is the treatment of Batman's alter ego, Bruce Wayne. In nearly all other media, including the comics, television shows, and films, Bruce deliberately plays up his image as a vacuous, self-absorbed, and not-too-bright billionaire playboy, in order to throw off suspicion that he is Batman. In the series, his character is treated more seriously, shown as assertive, intelligent, and actively involved in the management of Wayne Enterprises, without jeopardiz...
Batman's tools such as the utility belt, grappling-hook gun and Batmobile were redesigned for the series; they had been rarely tweaked or redesigned over the course of Batman's comic book appearances. The blue cowl and cape were changed to be much darker, with the blue being more of a lighting effect with only the inside of the cape being light blu...
Certain episodes have become legendary in some fan circles. The most universally hailed episode is the Emmy-award winning "Heart of Ice", which is known for reinventing the character of Mr. Freeze, changing him from a comedic cold-themed villain to a serious, tragic character with a sympathetic backstory.
