Re: RIP Seymour Cassell aka "Cancelled"
interesting that another noted character actor, Alex Rocco, was also a Gumm henchman. Possibly the most prolific duo from the series.

Busy Burgess
Not that it really mattered, but it appears that Burgess Meredith wasn't planning on returning had there been a fourth season. He was too busy elsewhere, with his range of projects involving playing Elvis' Navajo father in Stay Away, Joe. :lol: , while also directing one play, producing another and ...

Re: It is interesting to note how many actors are best known for their Batman characters

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.
