Star Trek continues to make new material and folks dont cry thats its not like 60s Star Trek. The groups that like all the shows that came after dont seem to moan about how its not like the OG.

Star Trek is a rare exception where the follow up series, TNG, is held in as high of regard, if not higher for some people, than the original series.
That being said, a lot of people who are fans of of the OG series, TNG, and the other series in the 90s and early-mid 2000s have been highly critical of many things the recent Star Trek series have done and how it doesn't really fit in with the franchise.
You are looking at this very selectively by focusing only on the original series.
Besides, BTAS wasn't the first ever Batman cartoon series made for TV. If I am not mistaken, that goes to The Adventures of Batman from the late 1960s, with those incarnations being tied into the subsequent Super Friends series (somewhat similar to BTAS being connected to Justice League and LJU). BTAS is just the one generally held in highest regard, and for good reason.
