Was there a place in the show where he was called Wilberforce? By the way, please get your comments in here by March 21 to ensure we'll have them when we record this episode! And you're right, it's probably the closest to what was filmed of any script we've discussed so far. Maybe not as much to tal...

We're back!!

In 1966, this Batman comic strip debuted. It walked a fine line between imitating to '66 TV show and differentiating itself from it. Paul and Tim discuss: http://ow.ly/OHar30iXF37

I'm adding all these questions to my list! Thanks everybody!

Looking at the production numbers in the Bat-Book, False Face is 8713, Joker/School is 8715. So that would fit with the show being in maybe its 2nd or 3rd week of broadcast when this was filmed.

Was the epsode filmed during Batmania? I don't know how far ahead it was filmed. High C pointed me to another interview where Donna said that, when she arrived at Desilu to shoot, people were climbing the fence to get a look at a Batman shoot. I don't recall how many weeks of shows they were able t...

Secondly, as the episode to follow that will be a discussion of the draft script of THE JOKER GOES TO SCHO...

I haven't heard anything else about it. In the interview, he seems to believe it was filmed and broadcast!

Didn't Yvonne and Bill date at some point?

Yeah, I saw that FB post, too. I haven't seen the movie -- how on earth does the Batmobile fit into that film? Or is it the Futura redressed without bats?

In the course of doing the podcast, I've found that the first Joker arc is possibly my favorite of the entire series. It's funny but also stands up in terms of story and action.

Awesome!

For instance, Dozier told Eisner for his original book that villain actors got $2500 per two-episode arc in seasons 1 and 2. Documentation from Dozier's files shows it was $3500, with occasional exceptions. The historian's problem, which I've come to appreciate while we make our podcast: interviewi...
