ANIMATED<br />
No.9 DVD+STREAMING Batman<br />
and the Joker are both feeling testy as they try to<br />
make sense of a relationship that’s codependent,<br />
mutually parasitic, maybe just sick: What fun is a<br />

The pop-cult jokes fire off like little<br />
pellets—pip!<br />

DRAMA There’s a satisfying sense of<br />
TV emotional deepening in season 2<br />
of this series about an African-American<br />
No.8family blessed (or saddled) with a farm<br />
inherited from their father. Every so often we get a<br />
development that’s close to Dallas—you’re not going to<br />
forge that signature, are you?—but a larger, resonant<br />
theme emerges: When do we stop being grown-up<br />
children and become adults? (OWN, <strong>June</strong> 20, 10 p.m.)<br />
