(I forgot to add these in the first part)
Patrick "Eel" O'Brian aka Plastic Man in episode three
Lois Lane from the "Fleischer Superman" cartoons in episode 4 alongside with Jimmy Olsen
In episode five Harleen names two streets: Wilson & Lowery which are references to Lewis Wilson and Robert Lowery the first two Batman actors in the live-action.
Episode Six:
A homage to the iconic highway scene in The Batman Movie.
Alfred's quote here is from Adam West's Batman (1966) TV series which originally was taken from Shakespeare.
Alfred also quotes Sherlock Holmes in this scene. Holmes was one of many inspirations for Bill Finger when he created Batman.
When Bruce is in the library, he comes across the name "Moldoff" a reference to the legendary artist Sheldon Moldoff who co-created Poison Ivy, Mr Freeze, Batgirl, Batwoman, and Ace the bat hound.
The fight between Batman and Gentleman Ghost was inspired by Batman #319, where even in that Comic, Batman doesn't believe that Gentleman Ghost is a real Supernatural being.
In the final fight, Gentleman Ghost possesses Alfred similar to Batman #310 where he did the same and kidnapped him.
Episode Seven:
The person who tries to shoot Barbara Gordon is Floyd Lawton aka Deadshot
Later on, we find out the person who hired Floyd to Kill Gordon was Josef Muller, a cop and one of the "Three Ghosts of Gotham" (Dr Hurt's attempts to create his own Batman) he is also known as Bat-Cop.
The person who betrays Barbara is James Corrigan a Gotham City Police Detective who becomes the divine spirit of vengeance, "the Spectre" after his death.
A street in Gotham is named "Nicholson" which is a reference to Jack Nicholson, who played the role of Joker.
Episode eight:
This episode introduces us to this world's Dick Grayson and Jason Todd who are both orphans in the Leslie Thompkins orphanage. Jason also has his original Hair colors.
Dick Grayson's origin seems to be different. He and his family were never part of the circus but he still carries his passion for the circus life and carnivals.
Bruce is with Julie Madison at the carnival, his first-ever love interest and fiance.
We also meet with Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen again in this episode.
Stephanie Brown, another popular member of the Bat Family.
Waylon Jones, aka Killer Croc, is a member of Carnival, just like most of his other origin stories, which show him as an alligator wrestler or a simple attraction at sideshow carnivals.
When Bruce goes back to the car we see Alfred reading a novel about Gray Ghost.
In BTAS, Gray Ghost was Bruce's favorite TV show and one of his inspirations for becoming Batman.
Carrie Kelley another Robin that appears in this episode with her favorite weapon.
This episode ends with Harvey's transformation to Two-Face.
His origin here is a mix of his classic origin and his BTAS origin (Rupert Thorne involvement)
Episode Nine and Ten:
This scene where Harvey dreams about being elected as the mayor was taken from Citizen Kane movie by Orson Welles.
Harvey Dent's similar design to his first appearance back in Detective Comics #66
When Barbara asks for a way to contact Batman, He gives her one of his numbers which is 555-0127
555 Is a fictional prefix for phone numbers used by Movies and TV shows because it doesn't exist and 0127 refers to Batman's first appearance in the Detective Comics.
Also, Contacting Batman with a Phone is another reference to the Adam West's Batman (1966) TV series
The ending of episode ten and Harvey's Death is similar to The Dark Knight (2008) movie.
A homage to the iconic shot from BTAS.
And finally, season one of The Batman Caped Crusader ends with a tease of Joker perfecting his Joker Venom.
