The 1966 Batman Message Board

Thanks for the heads-up. The only one of the CW shows I watch is the Flash, but I guess I will have to watch them all to see Burt (and to know what is going on).

While Penguin's Clean Sweep isn't one of my favorite episodes, I think I liked it better than you guys. The good point: I like that Batman researched the fruit flies and knew they would die when the temperature dropped. Good to see him actually using detective work. I also didn't really give too muc...

Thanks for the heads-up. I plan on watching the episodes soon. However, aren't these the only ones that still exist? I thought I read that most of the episodes were lost.

That is a cool Batsignal.

I also got the 60s Batman & Robin Funko pop that Keith posted.

Finally, I got Golden Age Batman Omnibus volume 7

If I had recorded my youthful Batman adventures on tape instead of running around in the yard with a towel on or playing with my Megos, I might be a podcaster today. I'm probably glad that didn't happen because I don't think there would be too big an audience for Gotham City Hillbillies. I enjoyed t...

I love that Corgi Batmobile. Here is my latest pickup. I only recently discovered this. It is a promotional comic from a Canadian Department store that was supposedly only available in Canada. It is ostensively to promote literacy. Honestly, it was goofy but was more entertaining than it should be. ...

Danger Island, yes! Part of the Banana Splits Adventure hour! It may be interesting to point out that the Superman director, Richard Donner directed those episodes and that Jan Michael Vincent got his start on that series. And yes, Y.O. I am humming the Banana Splits theme as I write, not having he...

Happy belated birthday. Amazing the career resurgence she had in the 1980s. She guest starred on a lot of my favorite 60s shows, Star Trek (one of the best episodes), Man from U.N.C.L.E. (one of the few decent 3rd season episodes) and, of course, Batman. She was always a much better actress than she...

I love TV from the sixties! I can’t really put my finger on it, but something about the shows from that era just make me so happy! Try no political correctness. Fun and enjoyment actually were still allowed. Exactly. Probably why my favorite decade for TV was the 60s, even though I wasn't born unti...

I don't want it to fail. I just have my doubts about him. Batman is my favorite fictional character, so I want to be able to enjoy any iteration of him. I mentioned this on another board, but he may surprise me. The example I used there, and I'll use here, is the 70s Legend of Lizzie Borden movie. B...

The two U.N.C.L.E. scripts that Stadd received a solo credit on had some mis-direction to them...one of them a good bit. The misdirection was what made it such a great episode. In fact, the beginning seems to have nothing to do with the rest of the episode, but it ties back together in the end. I gu...

That is cool to see. Thanks for sharing. I can't believe that DC didn't sue them.

A fun episode as always gentlemen. I'm glad to hear that there was a reasonable smattering of '66 content at the BGU Batman Conference. This is definitely an event I would have loved to have attended or even potentially participated in but unfortunately it just wasn't feasible in terms of timing a ...

Let's hope since this isn't a "done deal" it doesn't get to be one and this falls through. I hate to be "that guy" and, in most cases, think everyone should be given a chance...This time, I think I'm going to have to be "that guy." https://variety.com/2019/film/news/robert-pattinson-batman-matt-reev...

Since the video mentioned the Mongrel was only on loan to Presley Motors, I wonder if its permanent "home" displays it as The Jokermobile and uses the head. As huge of an Elvis fan as I am, Easy Come, Easy Go wasn't exactly one of the high-points of Elvis's career. I think the car probably is more f...
