In America, a sideshow is an extra, secondary production associated with a circus, carnival, fair or other such attraction.
Types of attractions
There are four main types of classic sideshow attractions:
The "Ten-in-One" offers a program of ten sequential acts under one tent for a single admission price. The ten-in-one might be partly a freak show exhibiting "human oddities" (including "born freaks" such as midgets, giants or persons with other deformities, or "made freaks" like tattooed people, fat people or "human skeletons"- extremely thin men often "married" to the fat lady, like Isaac W. Sprague). However, for variety's sake, the acts in a ten-in-one would also include "working acts" who would perform magic tricks or daredevil stunts. In addition, the freak show performers might also perform acts or stunts, and would often sell souvenirs like "giant's rings" or "pitch cards" with their photos and life stories. The ten-in-one would often end in a "blowoff" or "ding," an extra act not advertised on the outside, which could be viewed for an additional fee. The blowoff act would be described provocatively, often as something deemed too strong for women and children, such as pickled punks.
Batman: The Animated Series is an American television series based on the DC Comics superhero Batman, which was produced by Warner Bros. Animation and originally aired on Fox from 1992 to 1995; lasting 85 episodes.

Each episode is approximately 22minutes long, excluding commercials.
This article lists the episodes in their production order, in accordance with the order the series was released on DVD; rather than by their original airdates, the former was often preferred by fans due to establishment, story flow, consistency, character introduction, etc.
Your brain's a fuckin' thimble with a slow leak Your thoughts are so fucking shallow That a mouse couldn't drown It makes me sick to hear the words you speak When we both know when you talk There's nothing underneath So you look into my face and say "Why do you act this way?" You want the truth It's sad but true Society screwed me and so did you Shun me cuz I'm not part of your act Well you'll never understand what you have done Time will tell whether you are worthy I've touched you all in one way or another I could show you so much more If you'd open your eyes and your faith Sideshow in my mind Twisting and smashing the thorn in my side Your innocence was lost without a trace Stolen by a foolish embrace I'm very good at what I do Deep inside you know it's true I can show you so much
