I have a few: How about James Franciscus, Rhodes Reason, Ricardo Montalban, Russell Johnson, Rory Calhoun, Lyle Waggoner or Edson Stroll. All good ideas. Most references I've read state Clint Eastwood, then just ending Rawhide and not yet a major star, was being considered. I do like very much the ...

As per biggest "Star" at the time, I would nominate Cliff Robertson, who although having done much A list TV, for example two good episodes of Twilight Zone and one of those with John Astin, was still an A list leading man at the time. I would probably agree that Eli Wallach and Shelly Win...

How can anyone forget David Wayne's Mad Hatter? He's a big ham and cheese sandwich!

Happy Birthday to the late great Frank Gorshin. Frank would have been 82 today. http://comicbook.com/2015/04/03/remembering-frank-gorshin-on-his-birthday/ Here's photo I was happy and lucky to get with him at 1999's Monster Rally in Crystal City, Alexandria Va. Made the costume myself with found mat...

"Ah hey Batman, Robin, thank you for your great crime fighting. Thank you Verrr Much!"

A few other guest stars will also be at the Hollywood show, including Donna Loren, Grace Lee Whitney, Terri Garr and Dick Gautier who played Batman in the Equal Rights PSA spot.

At 54 going on 55, I'm a member of the Original Run Club. So I full well remember Batmania at it's peak. The stores were flooded with Bat Merchandise and cereals were were big for mail in premiums. It came on when I was in Kindergarten, and remember "playing Batman" at break time. The cute...

Lee Meriwether and Barry Dennen (Shane sidekick Fred, Pontius Pilate in Jesus Christ Superstar) have been added to this show.

Some interesting posts, some I would agree with, some not. My thoughts... 1.) Chief O'Hara. I suppose he serves the purpose of having someone for Commissioner Gordon to speak to, but often he's just kinda not adding much otherwise. Gordon is the "Mr. Waverly" or "M" of the show, ...

First, I want to agree and echo that Jack Cassidy would have been an excellent Bat Villain, I can easily see him as a magician type in black tux, similar to one of his Columbo guest roles. I would like to suggest my fellow Virginian, Joseph Cotten who would have been very good as the Gentleman Ghost...

While I am VERY fond of Sherry Jackson and Deanna Lund on the series, neither have the name value to have been a "Special Guest Villain". There was talk at one point of Natalie Wood considering the show, she could have easily made a very good Poison Ivy. Diana Rigg would have been superb a...

Batman villain's henchman of choice, Joe E. (Joey) Tata is one of the first announced scheduled guests for the April 24th to 26th 25th Anniversary Chiller convention in Parsippany NJ. Other guests include Dick Miller, John Schneider, William Katt, a Land of the Lost cast reunion, and Michael Nesmit...

Anyone else notice the absence of romance between Bats and Eartha Kitt's Catwoman? They lost a chance at beating Star Trek for the 'first inter-racial kiss on TV.' Catwoman in season 3 hardly seems the same character. The recasting of Eartha Kitt turned CW into a more calculating criminal who was m...

I'm glad that has been cleared up, I was beginning to think "MacKenna's Gold" took 2 years to film.

Terry Moore who played "Venus" in Season Two Joker/Penguin three parter, will be among the guests at the Mid Atlantic Nostalgia Convention, September 17 - 19, in Hunt Valley Mary;and which is nearby to Baltimore. This was announced on their Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/MidAtlan...
