     But they already did that. It was called Batman Begins. Only it remembers the source material more than Smallville does and The Graysons would have.

     That’s almost what it was:
     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Wayne_%28TV_series%29

     I can’t find it anymore, but years back I read a description of the pitch where he laid out the basic plot of the orphaned industrialist heir returning home etc., etc., and it sounds great and you want to see this show, and then at the END he reveals the name of the guy is BRUCE WAYNE.

     Sweet jeebus, that would have been a better show than Smallville.

       Yeah, but at least the premise got used for Batman Begins, which was an awesome movie, and helped get the rancid taste of Schumacher out of the fan’s collective mouths.

       I would much rather see a show where it follows Bruce Wayne around the planet learning from the best at everything to BECOME the best at everything…

       My only problem with that is, how long could it have gone without calling the person by a name?

   Looking at the plot of the Batman episode on Wikipedia, I would kill several of my closest friends to see a Batman/Harley Quinn/Joker triangle with all of them as university students.

     This wasn’t part of the show, of course. This is just a jab at Smallville, and how it messed with the continuity that way.
