I have a question for Bat-Fans.Did Julie Newmar do her Guest Episode on "The Monkees" during her "Batman" run or after?

IMDB.com is our friend! In this case, the air date was April 3rd, 1967 (I was two years old), so the answer seems to be...."during". Her character's name was April Conquest (!). As far as when it was filmed in relation to her "Batman" appearances, this link (http://monkeestv2.tripod.com/season1/more-dirt.html) says the episode was filmed January 23-25, 1967. Hope this helps!

Perhaps the Bat-costume designers were inspired by April's musical-note monogram when they created the shirts for Siren's henchmen. :)

I can't believe I never noticed that similarity before! Well-done.

My hobbies include gazing at the Siren and doing her bidding, evil or otherwise.
