I was a huge Batman fan as a kid. What a pleasant guy Adam West was.
Watching Batman as first aired when I was a kid, I had no idea the the guest villains were famous actors in their own right.

As a kid, I only recognized Burgess Meredith, but I didn’t know his name. I had no clue about the other villains.
Worked with Adam West in 1988 on a film called, "Omega Cop" he was on set for 3 days and was such a hoot to be around. He was kind to everyone, patient and joked it up on the set. Which made working those days all the more fun! Miss you Adam.
He is the bright knight, He is the true Batman. I love Adam West and was good in everything. It's why he was mayor. ADAM WEST!!!!
A fun and kind man that never took himself too seriously. RIP buddy. Hope you're resting well.
Adam West has always had a terrific take on a crazy career turn. Funny, perceptive, and aware of the silliness of it all. Biff! Oof! Nailed it, Batman!
"Some days, you just can't get rid of a bomb." That line from the movie will always stay with me. Thank you, Adam West, for making this viewer's childhood fun.
When I was a child growing up Adam West was and will always be the "Batman" for me. I grew up watching the 1966 1967 Batman tv series twice a week, part one on Weds. and part two on Thurs. 7:PM to 7:30PM on WABC channel 7 here in NYC. And to this day whenever I watch the show I still enjoy it very much.
Adam was so funny and most importantly ...human! I loved his portrayal. Batman with him had so much warmth that is missed in all the other films.
This is a terrific interview. Adam West's wit and humor come through (15:15 - one of the funniest comments in any interview and very Batman of him). He didn't get to it, but Adam West was "rock star" popular in Japan.
He looked mighty fine in that costume. Loved Adam West as Batman!

And he didn't need molded plastic to improve his physique. Just pure. West.

@crystalheart9 :) I was actually quoting his guest spot in the Simpsons where he teased himself a little. But the point was still sterling!

He had a good part in Robinson Crusoe on Mars. He always looked a very likable man.
I grew up in the 1970's on Batman reruns. Mr West's portrayal of Batman provided a positive role model for me.
He was great
His memoir, “Back To The Batcave” was a really fun read!
RIP Adam. Born in 1980. When I 1st saw this show, I completely loved it!! One love to the WHOLE Batman Cast!!
What a wonderful human being he was......
He really cherished his role is Batman even after all these years. Love it.
The reason BATMAN was amazing was that ADAM was BRILLIANT
It was a perfect video of the comics for kids

Mee!
Batman has always been my favorite show. As a kid I didn't see anything funny about it, to me he was so serious. Once as a kid I got in trouble for something, and my mom told me I couldn't watch Batman for a week, (it was on everyday at this time) and I could have just died. Adam West was the best
The "3 Bs" of the 60s: the Beatles, Bond & Batman!
With all the batman's that were on the big-screen. Adam west and Burt ward were real Batman and Robin to me.
Batman was a great show.When I was a kid we looked forward to watching it. It was silly,but very cool.
Tough decision to either to watch Batman or Lost in Space at the same hour.
Good stuff remember him batman in reruns
I love you Adam West!!
And Frank Corshin
Cat Man from Fairly Odd Parents. Half man, half cat!
Basically the show was a cartoon. Same Bat Time; same Bat Channel.
I still can't believe this was his real voice! I could listen to an audiobook of his voice.
80% of success is showing up - on time hopefully.
best actor
One of the best/R.I.P. Adam
Caesar Romero and Burgess Meredith were the stars in Batman.
13:37. Adam mentions Burgess Merideth, who played the villain, The Penguin. I can still hear The Penguin's evil laugh, "Hu-whe, hu-whe, hu-whe!". I think that's how you'd spell an evil laugh.
And Newman as a Catwoman

What a shame he never got to play the older stately Batman.
Adam West was on the cover of LIFE magazine and not TIME.
I love this Batman I love Adam West she's so handsome I love to watch I got the Batman DVD❤
i love that he knew it was absurd even then
Catwoman steals the voices of the English singing duo, Chad and Jeremy. Classic.
Rip Adam you are and always be the Batman ! I appreciate everything you did the spaghetti westerns Robinson Caruso on mars ! Rip
So funny when Batman puts $5cents in a parking meter when parking-up at some major crime scene, with time to lecture Robin on good citizenship. Hilarious!
Simpatizava com esse ator!
🦹♂️❤
THEEEEE BATMAN!!!!
Either to watch
27 lives I think, tough 🤣
It was Camp comedy.
The bat 🚤was cool & bat girl was very hot
It's "Batgirl", not "Batwoman"!
I wonder if he is purposely overstating the artistic direction in Batman on purpose - to have fun with the audience. He is being what he claims that Batman was. It seems all tongue-in-cheek.

You're the only one who figured that out!
Batwoman????!!!
No mention of his stint as himself on "Family Guy." He was the only one worth watching.
