Re: It is interesting to note how many actors are best known for their Batman characters
Not to be morbid but if you want to see what somebody was "best known for" at the time of their death, just check out their obituary at the time of their passing. History can be a bit revisionist due to changing pop culture trends and relative to ones personal exposure. Was Adam West main...

Re: I think Dozier rolled the dice with Gorshin
One of his Ed Sullivan appearances delivered a huge audience. Of course, that Feb. 9, 1964 appearance also had some up-and-coming group from Liverpool on it...Bob Furmanek wrote: ↑Thu Feb 07, 2019 9:45 am I'd say Gorshin was already a name in 1965...he had signed for his 11th Ed Sullivan appearance.

Re: I think Dozier rolled the dice with Gorshin
Gorshin appeared on an episode of The Defenders in which he played a killer who displays his insanity by channeling different famous people--allowing him to essentially do his nightclub act.

The Superman musical was broadcast on ABC on Feb. 21, 1975. ******************************************* Regarding Baxter's knack for Russian dialogue, this was from an interview in August 1967 during the filming: "Years ago, I learned a Russian accent from the great actress Maria Ouspenskaya. A...
