Animated Debut of Pamela Isley is a little uneven

Okay, this episode is not as good as the earlier introductory episodes for, say, Catwoman or Mister Freeze or Clayface. Let's just clear that right up at the moment.

However, it does have some good points here and there.

Bruce Wayne has a bit more screentime then Batman in this episode, with Bruce also showing some of his detective skills without having to wear the cape and cowl.

The main plot of the story is a classic revenge, albeit with a deranged twist. The villain, Poison Ivy, is very much a looney-tune in comparison to her usual depictions in both comics and other media. Her ranting about the 'blood of flowers on the hands of Harvey Dent' is quite hilarious, actually. I'm all for protecting Earth's environment, but Ivy's a little out there.

Probably the least best episode I've watched yet of The Animated Series. But still enjoyable.
