Yes, my Gmail inbox was full of requests this morning! I've reset the files to be accessible to anyone, so should be OK now. If you still run into issues, let me know.

TO THE BATPOLES #215: Women in Season 3, pt. 1: Villains (and heroes!) approach gender parity

https://assets.libsyn.com/show/65262/WomenInSeason3pt1.jpg One of the most striking things — in a good way, for once! — about Batman ’s third season is the number of villains who are women. Also, of course, this is the season of Batgirl , who is more aggressively “feminized” than any other woman on...

TO THE BATPOLES #214: “Mr. Terrific”: A tough pill to swallow? Pt 2

https://assets.libsyn.com/show/65262/MisterTerrificPt2.jpg Mr. Terrific was cancelled after half a season, but… was it really a terrible show? Is star Stephen Strimpell partly to blame? This time, we push back on Thirteen Week Theatre ’s take on Strimpell, consider why pill popping was such a commo...

TO THE BATPOLES #213: “Mr. Terrific”: A tough pill to swallow? Pt 1

https://assets.libsyn.com/show/65262/MisterTerrificPt1.jpg This time we look at the other sitcom that tried to cash in on Batman , CBS’s Mr. Terrific . It’s goofier than Captain Nice and not as funny (although the laugh track clearly doesn’t think that!), but with a surprisingly good cast. We discu...
