** Jason wearing Wonder Woman sweatpants in Episode 6 is funny, but it becomes heartwarming when you realize that he's had feelings for [[ComicBook/{{Artemis}} someone who's worn the mantle of Wonder Woman before]].
** Bruce tells Stephanie that Kite Man being obsessed with being her nemesis isn't a good excuse to pass on fighting him. This works just based on Bruce's professionalism about the job, but reflecting on which of Batman's enemies would fit the same position brings up another potential reason - if Bruce were to set that precedent, he'd have to let his kids deal with ComicBook/TheJoker every time he launches another scheme. That's something he wouldn't want for their safety[[note]]given how nasty Joker is and how much of a PapaWolf Bruce is[[/note]] and possibly his one rule's safety as well[[note]]given how violent Damian and Jason are at the best of times and [[BewareTheNiceOnes how violent the others can get if given sufficient motivation]][[/note]].
** Even though Tim and Stephanie act as though Damian has a point, the fact that Harley can't come up with any non-supervillain examples of doctorate degree holders makes sense for another reason: she used to be a supervillain. That's who she cites because that's who she knows.

** In "Unaccompanied", Bruce leaves his kids at home when he goes to a gala because of the chaos most of them have caused in the past. Was that because they have NoSocialSkills thanks to their unusual lives, or because they were purposely trying to avoid getting invited again?

* BrokenBase: The tone and premise of this comic is quite divisive among Bat fans. Some appreciate it for the more wholesome approach to the Batfamily and argue that it still depicts them as layered characters while others feel it removes the characters' edges to flatten them into one-dimensional archetypes.

** A lower-key example occurs in "Alarm Bells". As his siblings try and try to pull [[{{Workaholic}} Bruce]] away from his work, Dick is working on his own solution in the background. Bruce's work is suddenly disrupted when the Bat-Computer announces that the manor's defenses have been taken down. Smiling, Dick calmly looks his irritated father in the eye and tells him he set things up so that Bruce has just enough time to catch Damian before he goes on patrol alone...but only if he leaves now. Although Bruce glares at him for a few moments, he has no choice but to act as predicted, and Dick clearly knows it. Basically, he pulls a [[{{BatmanGambit}} Batman Gambit]] on the Batman.

** Another lower-key example occurs in "Kidnapping Clinic." Finally getting fed up with Jason's teasing about having to save him when he gets kidnapped, Tim kicks Jason's armchair over with him in it. The normally unfazed Jason yelps and gets wide-eyed as he clings to the tilting chair.

** Damian capping off a prank war by spray-painting Tim's suit? Funny. The spray paint message being an homage to [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/robinsuitbvs.png the dead Robin shrine]] from ''[[Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice Dawn of Justice]]?'' Side-splittingly hilarious.
** Bringing up [[ComicBook/ADeathInTheFamily Jason's death]] isn't funny. Jason bringing it up ''himself'' constantly is. Jason angrily arguing his point to ''a group of strangers'' at a charity gala while Bruce embarrassingly has to drag him away? ''Hilarious.'' It reaches new levels when Jason ends up overhearing Bruce flirting with Selina, and ''asks someone to kill him again.''
