Dr. Who Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 No it was terrible. How that show ever become popular is beyond me. Some people find camp amusing. Yvonne Craig and Julie Newmar, among others, looked good in cosplay. The Monkees were also a hit for a while, so there's no accounting for taste.

Sure their music sucked but the show was a classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxum Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 Evidently some found the costume hot .... ‘Batman’ star Adam West had sex with eight women a nighthttp://pagesix.com/2017/06/12/batman-star-adam-west-had-sex-with-eight-women-a-night/ In fact, West did once turn up at what he described as an “orgy” in Hollywood with Frank Gorshin, who played “Batman” baddie The Riddler. But they were thrown out for behaving like their TV alter-egos and making everyone laugh. He said: “We walked in and it was an orgy. So I immediately went into the Batman character, and Frank went into the Riddler character, because we were getting the big giggles. It was so funny to us, what we walked into. And we were kicked out. We were expelled from the orgy.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Jim Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Well that's confusing because that's not LA City Hall. That's the Daily Planet Building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 RIP, Mr West. Best TV Batman of all time (by default, pretty much, I think). With that said, it was pretty repetitive. Funny for about 10 minutes, IMO. But that's how I feel about most broad comedy. Adam West was quick to laugh at himself, which is a bit plus in my book. Best Batman of all time? Michael Keaton---and it isn't close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
