I don't know if Halloween counts as cosplay, but I've been Robin twice.
The first time was in the mid 80s. I'd intended to go as Batman but ended up giving the TV-inspired cowl I'd fashioned from a paper bag to a taller friend and pulled together a quickie Boy Wonder outfit. We weren't the most ...

Re: Best Series " Stunt"
I agree with Andy -- the first instance I thought of was the rope-swing to the giant umbrella handle in Fine Feathered Finks -- followed by what may have been the only bat-climb that didn't use the standard side-of-the-building set.
Other stunts I like:
Blaze's jump from Commissioner Gordon's ...

Re: The Archer Goggles found
By coincidence, my Facebook feed just served up a shot of Vincent Price (and co-star) in those goggles. It's a scene from The Fly, immediately preceding the reveal of the titular insect-man.

Re: Catwoman's theme
For a fine introduction to the theremin, its history and other instruments it spawned, check out the "Good Vibrations" episode of the podcast "A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs," by Andrew Hickey . The podcast title essentially describes its premise, but the background on each song and its ...

Re: Batman singing
This is a great clip and yes, it has been posted here before. If you plug "orange-colored sky" into the message board search tool, you'll likely find discussions of this performance and of an infamous Burt Ward cover version of the same song (on a single produced by none other than Frank Zappa ...

No doubt it looked great, but before reading this description, the photos looked to me like Gilligan's hat might have been inhabited by a Black Widow-style tarantula. It's been many years since I watched Gilligan's Island, but Little Buddy's ...

Re: Best and Worst of the Newbies
As a kid, I kind of liked seeing new villains, but as a grown-up I agree that there was a lot to be desired about some of the baddies introduced in season 2. (Season 1, with False Face, Bookworm and even Zelda was better on that score.) I rank Clock King, Minstrel, Ma Parker and Archer from best ...

Re: Archer and Nora Clavicle episode trivia
Great find. I love these kinds of missing links.
I haven't seen Robin and the 7 Hoods yet, but I checked out its Wikipedia entry and found a couole more incidental connections: Edward G. Robinson made uncredited cameos in both Batman and "Robin," and the original batmaestro, Nelson Riddle, also ...

Re: Batman Binge Options
I have Blu-Rays but haven't busted them out since buying the series on Apple TV. (I don't know its resolution, but it doesn't matter much to me because I only watch on a laptop screen.)
I got the VUDU streaming version with the Blu-Rays but lost the password or some such ages ago. I've forgotten ...

Re: Batspin effect photo
The Start Button was the first batspin image, and it became the "official" one used throughout the series, but in the pilot (and maybe other early episodes?) at least a couple of other spinning images were also used. A notable example is at about 15:40 in Hi Diddle Riddle -- it looks like the source ...
