It certainly looked like at least two or three of the "bat-turns" were the same clip. I mean who's going to notice in the days before endless reruns and VCRs, right?

Somewhat surprized that batman did not use his indicators.

There was a slight advancement in the Bat-turn from the first to second use of it-from just a fancy-ass u-turn to turning around on a dime. I regularly say “emergency Bat-turn” whenever I have to do a u-ey.

I have noticed that parachutes had bat logos on them with strings attached to them and when batman pushed a button to cut them off and batmobile parachute pick up services was called from the batmobile and I think it's was Robin called them to come out pick up them from the ground

Should have shown when Batman caught up with Riddler and "Robin". Batman did just what Riddler said he would do; "He'll give us the Batbeam any second now."

The Parachute pick up has an interesting story. A young viewer wrote a letter to Batman producers stating that if Batman never breaks the law, how come he leaves the parachute behind?, that's littering. So, the producers invented the " Batmobile parachute pick up service" van. What a job, sit around in a van waiting for the phone to ring. Maybe a side job for Alfred.
