The Top 5 Badman Episodes

When you hear "Batman," you may think of Adam West, George Clooney or Christian Bale, but what about Pete Holmes? In his series called Badman, Pete Holmes plays an imbecile Batman that confuses easily. I'm about to walk you through the top five episodes (in my humble opinion) and hopefully get you into Badman as much as I am.

5. Batman's Huge Mistake, AKA Batman's Interrogation


This episode follows our hero Batman as he interrogates the Joker to get information about another villain, Harvey Dent. Unfortunate for the birthday clown he interrogates instead, but fortunate for our comedic viewing, Pete Holmes' iteration of Batman follows the Dark Knight's fight choreography in a hilarious parody of the intense movie scene.

4. Batman Vs. Superman


This episode showcases Batman's lack of powers in opposition to Superman's literal infinite power while also juxtaposing Batman's coolness versus Superman's "white bread" image.

Matt McCarthy plays Commissioner Gordon, adding to the roast of Superman and setting up Batman to admit his overt drawback, saying verbatim, "I'm confused easily."

3. Batman Chooses His Voice


Batman Chooses His Voice showcases Pete Holmes' skill at impressions as Batman tries out different voices. This episode is rife with meta-humor and sets up a fantastic final scene.

2. Batman Disturbs the Penguin, AKA Batman Vs The Penguin (feat. Patton Oswalt)


Patton Oswalt plays a hilarious parody of the Penguin in this episode where Commissioner Gordon and the Penguin realize Batman has no concept of death. This episode bounces back and forth, greatly, between the Penguin and Batman. In addition, it has a fantastic premise, making it one of the funniest episodes in the series.

1. Batman Vs. The Scarecrow


This episode is downright side-splitting. The facial expressions Pete Holmes use in addition to the absolute randomness in his fears create great joke after great joke, even incorporating a Christopher MacDonald cameo. If you only watch one episode of Badman ever, make it this one.


*Bonus: The Outtakes

Now that you're familiar with the Badman, the outtakes are hilarious. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
