I watched Batman the Animated Series, and while the show is beautifully animated and it has great music and good character designs, it is incredibly retarded. It has so many lengthy exposition dumps that are ultimately unnecessary. I have known the backstories and basic tropes of all of Batman's rogue gallery since I was young, and any kid who would care enough to watch a Batman cartoon would as well. The rest of the exposition covers things that should be naturally revealed later on; it would be far more engaging and exciting if that happened. It's weird how a show can be so close to quality yet so far, and it's weird that this is the show that kickstarted the "animation can be mature" trend when the "mature themes" it presents are things that lots of cartoons have covered with the same depth. Buzz Lightyear of Star Command had both more engaging stories and deeper themes with a similar style.
Also, Dan Dare: Pilot of the Future is a great show. I have no idea why I have never heard anyone else mention it before; it's well-written and it does almost everything correctly. THIS is how you do mature animation.
