Tallullah's voice certainly paid the price from all those years of smoking--and drinking.

Robertson had said that he did the first arc because his daughter wanted him to do it, while the second arc was due to the opportunity to work with his then-new wife, Dina Merrill.

Simple Batman math: A-Listers cost serious $$ + Dozier was cheap = Absolutely no chance of happening.

One sad irony about Eartha is that her biggest(?) hit was Santa Baby and she ended up passing away on Christmas Day 2008.

Eartha's health issues were back-related. Regarding dialogue that sounds confusing--in the third episode of S2 (Minstrel) the duo brags about past foes they vanquished and mentioned Clock King, who was still three eps away from making his first appearance.
