I can't see it as much more than a gimmick. It's a lot of name dropping. How many times did they call Oswald 'Penguin' in the first episode alone? This show has no subtly. Oswald is constantly called Penguin. Any scene with Edward Nigma has him spouting riddles. Selina Kyle is already an acrobatic theft who prefers being called 'Cat'. They even throw in Poison Ivy but because they think so little of the viewers they toss out her actual character name ( Pamela Lillian Isley ) and just call her Ivy.

The show beats the audience over the head to remind them it's a Batman series.
