Mike was partly right, DC was thinking of canceling Batman due to declining sales. A Fox exec. went to the Playboy mansion where Hef, and the girls were watching the old Batman serials in his home theater, cheering, and throwing popcorn at the screen. When the exec. went to work the next day, he told Fox the story, they contacted Bob Kane who had also wanted to be a movie star, he agreed as long as he could come out to La La land. So Hugh Hefner saved Batman. And now you know...

Robin: "You can't get away from Batman that easy!" Batman: "Easily." Robin: "Easily." Batman: "Good grammar is essential, Robin." Robin: "Thank you." Batman: "You're welcome."

I had a goofy stupid smile on my face the whole time watching them.

Now we can have multiple funny light-hearted Batmans, but it did upset me that Return of the Caped Crusader and Batman v Two-Face were being slept on in comparison to the LEGO Batman movie that came out at the same time. Like LEGO Batman is great, don’t get me wrong, but it felt like to me people purposefully avoided the other two, and that’s just not cool, man.

Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane posted a remembrance of West on Twitter shortly after the Batman actor’s death. “Family Guy has lost its mayor, and I have lost a friend,” MacFarlane wrote. “Adam West was a joy to work with, and the kind of guy you always wanted to be around. His positivity, good nature, and sense of fun were undeniable, and it was always a big jolt of the best kind of energy when he walked in to record the show. He knew comedy, and he knew humanity. I am beyond fortunate to have had the privilege of working with him, and he will be profoundly missed by all of us. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you have given, Mr. Mayor. You’re irreplaceable.”

One of my favorite Batman moments is a 3rd Season (?) episode, just a 30 minute one (no two parter) with King Tut. A woman is kidnapped and Bruce was going to go out with her on a date. Batman saves the day. At the end of the episode, Bruce takes her back to her apartment after the date, and she asks him if he want to come in for a drink. Naturally, he declines. Then she offers him milk and cookies! He accepts, turns to the camera and breaking the 4th wall, says "Well, man can't live by crimefighting alone..." and goes in! Awesome!

The two animated movies set in this universe are great! They came out a few years ago, with the second movie coming out after Adam West died.

The siren screech sounds dead on the girls 'screaming' in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre game on Atari 😂😂

This show is possibly my favourite iteration of Batman. I love a good ol’ self parody. My favourite part of the show is definitely Adam West, who plays it straight and with such dedication that you believe every word that comes out of his mouth. What I feel they did wrong in Batman And Robin as opposed to this show was that the jokes on the show weren’t made as if they wanted a laugh track, whereas B&R demanded a ‘bu dum dum bush’ with a drum beat and symbols. My favourite villains are probably: The Joker, The Riddler, Catwoman (Eartha Kitt was great), and The Penguin (who actually appeared in the most episodes of the whole show). I also really liked Roddy McDowell’s Bookworm from Season 1.

Adam West will always be Batman in the Batcave of my heart. RIP sweet caped crusader.

Just before Tim Burton was brought on to direct 89's Batman, the studio had proposed bringing on Ghostbusters' director Ivan Reitman. He had envisioned a campier movie, more of a takeoff of 60's Batman, and he wanted Bill Murray as the Caped Crusader and Eddie Murphy as the Boy Wonder. Could you imagine that?

6:24 An episode on Batman the animated series.

This is some damn good content. You guys are really making people happy.

I loved watching the Adam West Batman show when i was a kid in the 80's, it was a staple of the the era i grew up in, all of my friends watched it too. The Batmobile still looks fantastic today. Great, fun series suitable for the whole family. The slapstick violence with great sound effects and those brilliant "Wham", "Bop" and "Kapow's" are just great. Excellent video guys 👍 The Conan story at the end of the video is quality, i'll be telling all my friends that one 🙂

I remember watching this video when it first came out. Back when Adam West was stll with us...RIP. I know this is old, but its nice to see James and Mike sitting on the couch together. I hope they can safefully fo it again soon.

The guy with the props is Ralph Garman (a radio host in California, works alot with Kevin Smith) who helped campaign and get Adam West his star on the Walk Of Fan, these two were really good friends.

I do personally prefer a darker Batman, but I get you on this having been vital to the franchise as a whole. Also, I always give props to Bill Finger when someone mentions Bob Kane. It's a reflex by now.

This came out in November 2014.

Thanks for uploading tthis to KZread it's a awesome review this is one of my favorite TV shows from the 60s and I'm a huge fan of the show I used to watch the rerun on tv when I was a kid

Finally, the full video of this. It’s been a long time since it’s been fully uploaded on KZread by Cinemassacre.

The Bond villain Ernst Blofeld was the inspiration for Dr. Evil, specifically the version played by Donald Pleasance in You Only Live Twice (1967)

I'd like to see them compare this with the animated "The New Adventures of Batman" which also starred Adam West, and Burt Ward. Love to see what they think of the "Transylvania Twist" super cheesy movie, that came out before "Dracula: Dead and Loving It", and before Scary Movie, parody with Angus Scrimm parodying his character from Phantasm. The DVD seemed to have deleted scenes that hadn't seen in the HBO version, such as a song in the stage coach.

I think another reason younger generations disregard the series is them having watched the dark knight trilogy in the wake of the two Schumacher films (the less said the better). The leap in quality is obviously undeniable. Older people who maybe grew up with the 90s animated series may also have the viewpoint that even as a cartoon, something normally associated with children, Batman HAS to be dark and serious in tone to be good and captivating.
