a5c7b9f00b The Caped Crusader and his young ward battle evildoers in Gotham City.
To the unsuspecting public, and Police, they are Bruce Wayne, billionaire, and Dick Grayson, his nephew. However, to Alfred, their butler, they are Batman and Robin, scourge of Gotham City's criminals. Whenever the Police encounter a crime they cannot solve or criminal they cannot apprehend, it's Batman to whom they turn.
My parents and my little sister have recently started watching this Batman TV series from the 60's. I had seen a few episodesa youngster, and I sat in on two or three more now.<br/><br/>It is dreadful. Very campy but not in a good way. The jokes are almost funny to get a laugh, but not funny enough, and that is a very dreadful place for a joke to be. I'd almost rather the jokes had fallen flat–actually, quite a few of them did. So I asked my mother how she could enjoy it, and here's how she explained it to me: Apparently, this Batman series appeals to two types of people. Firstly, to young people, mostly below the age of 10, who take it seriously and are excited to witness Batman's adventures. I suppose that's understandable, if unfortunate. There is a lot more they could be watching instead, whether it be "The Wizard of Oz" or classic Disney or any of Pixar's ten top-notch films. The second group that this TV series appeals to are people who were in the below-10 age group when the series was shown on television. So let's do some math. The first episode aired in 1966. Those who were ten years old then are now 53, so nobody above 53-55 probably has much nostalgia for this show. Meanwhile, the last episode aired in 1968. We can assume there were quite a few reruns, but the biggest audience was probably right around that time. So those who were old enough to remember Batman in 1968 are now no younger than 45.<br/><br/>Let's be generous and add 5 years onto either end of this older audience. That puts the appeal of this Batman TV series at 10 years or younger, and 40-60 years old. This older audience will continue to grow older, and the younger audience will likely grow smaller. Meanwhile, everyone from 10-30 and above 60 years has no stake in this TV show. They will see it for what it is: a childish bastardization of what I hear is a good comic (I have never read the Batman comics myself).<br/><br/>Thank God Tim Burton and Christopher Nolan have redeemed Batman's celluloid reputation. In 2005 I didn't want to see "Batman Begins" with my cousin because I was afraid it would be campy and stupid like this TV show. Thankfully, I went anyway and I love it. Now, after "The Dark Knight," whenever I hear the name of Batman, I think of that gloriously intense crime drama I saw in theaters 6 times, and its excellent predecessor. As for this TV series, it is only an impostor. Skip it.
I first watched this show when I was a kid. A cousin of mine had introduced it to me, and it was my first time seeing Batman and Robin played by real actors. In general, this show is very cheesy, campy, silly and whimsical, with average-at-best special effects, funny fight scenes and predictable stories. But, you don't really have to take this TV show seriously, just enjoy it. It's fun to watch (sometimes, it's so bad it's funny). Almost every major character from the comic strip are here including, Bruce Wayne/Batman, Dick Grayson/Robin, Commissioner Gordon, Alfred Pennysworth, Barbara Gordon/Batgirl, Joker, Penquin, Catwoman and the Riddler! I liked how this show depicted the Batcave, accessible through a mini-control hidden underneath the head of a statue, and Barbara Gordon's secret chamber for her Batgirl costume: she flips a switch under her dresser and the entire wall turns to reveal her secret identity.<br/><br/>The lively opening scene music will probably be ingrained in your mind forever after hearing it, and will instantly remind you that this is the Batman series from the 1960s. And, the animation from the opening scene resembles that of those in the comic books. The costumes are also very colorful and vibrant. <br/><br/>Each of the episode is hatched out to contain straight-to-the-point plot (though very cliché): the heroes finds the villains and tries to foil their plot. Each episode contains action-packed fight scenes along with animated texts like "Pow," Kapow," "Sock" and others appearing on your TV screen. Each character's dialog are spokenif he/she is running out of time - fast like there is no room for nonsense, and no room for dramatic and slow-talks. Adam West looked like he had too much fun filming this series. The series got more interesting with the additional of Batgirl in Season 3, in my opinion. <br/><br/>Above all, a very campy show, sometimes servinggreat popcorn entertainment. You don't have to worry about the story or take the plot seriously, just enjoy the action. <br/><br/>Grade B-

In the original DC comics, this series and the Batman movie that came along between the first and second seasons, it was millionaire Bruce Wayne and his young ward, Dick Grayson. Since the mid 90's, Bruce Wayne has been portrayeda BILLIONAIRE in DC comics. Alfred, Bruce Wayne's loyal and faithful butler. In the comic book, Alfred's last name is Pennyworth, but it is not mentioned in the television series or the film. He's proper full name is Alfred Thaddeus Crane Pennyworth. In the comic book, Commissioner Gordon 's first name is James, but it is not mentioned in the television series or the film. He's proper full name is James Worthington Gordon, Sr. Batman's base of operations. Beneath stately Wayne Manor. They gain access to the Batcave via Batpoles hidden in Bruce's study. There is a hidden switch inside a bust of William Shakespeare that, once flipped, causes a false bookcase to slide open, revealing the poles. In the first season, by elevator. Starting in the second season (and something else shown in the 1966 feature film), compressed steam causes a platform at the base of the Batpoles to go back up. Midway down the Batpoles, there is an "Instant Costume-Change Lever." This was depicted in the 1966 feature film that came out in between the first and second seasons of the television show. The Batmobile, an atomic reactor, the Batcomputer and other devices. Two primary methods: the "hot line," apparently a dedicated telephone line, and the Bat Signal, a spot light with a bat logo on the top of Gotham City hall. If that's attempted, Batman has an alarm that goes off. He then can flip switches that send the trace to other telephone lines. This is shown during the second season when Gordon attempts a trace after it appears Batman has gone bad. 14 miles. Gotham City is a fictional U.S. port city located on the north-eastern Atlantic coast. It was originally a stand-in for New York City, but has also been likened to other crime-ridden urban centers suchChicago and Detroit. Some sources have placed Gotham City in the state of New Jersey; however, this cannot be considered definitive. The Gotham City of "Batman" (1966) seems to be a direct analog for New York City. This is supported by the fact that there are visible references to a number of actual New York landmarks and location; Jack Dempsey's Restaurant can even be seen in the background in some of the rear-projected Batmobile footage.<br/><br/>The current DC Universe version of Gotham City is actually a small island connected to the mainland by a series of bridges and tunnels. The east and south sides of Gotham face the Atlantic Ocean. The city is further divided by the Sprang River (named for Dick Sprang) on the northern end and the Finger River (for Bill Finger) to the south. Tiny Blackgate Isle to the south-east is home to Blackgate Maximum Security Penitentiary. Blackgate is replaced by Stonegate Peniteniary in the animated series "Batman" (1992) and its spin-offs. His parents were "murdered by dastardly criminals,"he states in the pre-credits sequence of "Hi Diddle Riddle," the first episode. This fits in with the DC comics. In the DC comics from the 80's, the shooter of Bruce's parents was identifiedJoe Chill, although, the Batman movie (1989) with Michael Keaton tried to state that it was a young Jack Napier long before he became the Joker. The "big four" are The Riddler, The Penguin, The Joker and Catwoman. The role of the villain Two Face was Offered to Clint Eastwood, but producers felt that The Character would appear too frightening for children. However he will be included in a sequel to Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders (the animated aniversary movie) called Batman vs. Two-Face in which Harvey Dent/Two-Face will be played by actor William Shatner. In the comic books the Riddler's real name was Edward Nygma (or E. Nigma) in early comic books which was later changed to Edward Nashtonhis birth name. The Penguin's real name was Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot. Catwoman's real name was Selina Kyle. The Joker's real identity is uncertain. The television show and spin-off theatrical film did not make use of any of their real identities in any capacity, including flashbacks. Yes. The Green Hornet is mentioned three times on the show. On one occasion, the Hornet (Van Williams) and Kato (Bruce Lee) appear in a cameoBatman and Robin walk up a wall. During this encounter, Batman and Robin seem aware that the Green Hornet and Kato are crime fighters. The Hornet even says he is on "special assignment" from the Daily Sentinel, the newspaper owned by Brit Reid (the Green Hornet's true identity). On another, Bruce and Dick are watching the Green Hornet television show but are interrupted. Finally, they meet again, except this time Batman is unaware the Green Hornet is a crime fighter (he posesa criminal). In reality, the executive producer of both shows was William Dozier. Yes. Among them: Jerry Lewis, Edward G. Robinson and Colonel Klink (Werner Klemperer in the role he played on "Hogan's Heroes." Dick Clark also asked them if they were part of a band. Although it is a popular rumor that is often takenfact, in truth, Aunt Harriet was introduced into the Batman stories in Detecive Comics #328 in 1964 – a full two years before the show hit the air. Aunt Harriet was introduceda replacement for Alfred Pennyworth, who had died and would later be resurrectedthe supervillain The Outsider, not realizing his true identity because of amnesia (Don't worry – he eventually got better). No, you are confusing two separate, different pieces of information. <br/><br/>-Clint Eastwood was considereda special guest villain, but would have portrayed Two-Face (see the entry above.) The character of False Face (played by Malachi Throne) is believed to have been a "replacement" for this possible Two-Face incarnation.<br/><br/>-There was an entirely separate Western-themed villain named Shame, portrayed by Cliff Robertson. As of June 2015: Julie Newmar (Catwoman), Glynis Johns (Lady Penelope Peasoup), Joan Collins (The Siren), and John Astin (Riddler- season 2). Van Williams (The Green Hornet) was billeda "Special Guest Hero". Same Bat Time, same Bat Channel…
