I wish we got a Dark Knight animated series.

Yeah it would have been pretty cool. It didn't literally have to be in continuity with Nolan's universe but inspired by the style, coming off from those films. Kinda like how Batman: The Animated Series had a similar tone with the Burton films.

I agree with you on that. If Batman The Animated Series could be modeled after the Burton Batman films, we could've gotten a new animated series modeled after the Nolan films. That's a show I would've watched.

A lot of the elements of the animated series were utilized in the Nolan films! That's why I'm so surprised other plotlines haven't been included; there's so much! I'm still waiting for a Batman movie centering around Arkham since so many super villains have all day to come up with ideas & plans; sorta like Ma Parker in the '66 series when she took over the prison!   

I just watched "Christmas with the joker" and batman says "it's never easy with the joker." Seems like they lifted that line right out of TAS and put it in TDK. ("It's not that easy. With the joker it never is.")
