This episode is responsible for "Jingle bells, Batman smells, Robin laid an egg, the Batmobile lost a wheel and the Joker got away!" followed by "Crashing through the roof, in a one horse open tree, busting out I go, laughing all the weeeee!" Ah, good times.
Robin makes his first appearance and is basically there to state the obvious, while Mark Hamill does a great job as the Joker. I generally prefer the grimmer psychological terrorist versions of the Joker as they make a truly frightening and harder to grapple with villain, but for day to day viewing, this gleeful pie-in-the-face Joker is just what the doctor ordered.
Oh, and there are Betty Blooper dolls among other toys to defeat in an old toy factory to the tunes from The Nutcracker. =P A Good, with a spoonful perhaps of So Bad It's Good, but then, what else would you expect with the Joker?
