She was something to behold. Still is I'm sure.

The Batman TV show was a classic. Many beautiful ladies appeared on that show, Julie Newmar, Yvonne Craig, and Grace Lee Witney come to mind. Catwoman dancing with Batman is a classic scene from that show.

Not about her (I think it was Yvonne Craig) but Bruce Ward as Robin scowled once and asked Adam West as the TV Batman “What I don’t understand is how can any man find a woman with low morals and a total lack of respect for the law to be appealing.”

Batman put up his gloved hand to stifle a smile. “Someday we’ll have a long talk about that when you’re older.”

Lee Merriweather was a Miss America. Halle Berry and Michelle Pfeiffer were/are perfect, beautiful actresses. Yet there is no comparison.

Robin is lucky that Batman was a good guy.

“She was something to behold.” No kidding. I just watched that scene — magnificent!

The Batman TV series starring Adam West didn’t run that long. It aired from January 12, 1966, to March 14, 1968, on ABC. It ran for three seasons with a total of 120 episodes. I was in high school at the time and don’t remember watching that many episodes of the show. The vamping was a bit over the top for me plus work and school got all my time.

Julie Newmar took the role and made it her own. She played Catwoman as a bad girl who did the wrong things to get Batman's attention. She had an obvious attraction to Adam West's Batman, and he to her, but he's too strong to fall for her evil ways, although he is clearly tempted. Robin, was just a nuisance to her. Best line, "Batman, when I get out of jail, will you take me on a date?"

My parents controlled the only TV we had.
Batman was not on the list of shows.

Robin is lucky that Batman was a good guy.

Robin was the third wheel that doomed Batman's love life with Catwoman.
Batman: I'll do whatever I can to rehabilitate you.
Catwoman: Marry me
Batman: Everything except that...What about Robin?
Catwoman: Robin? Oh, I've got it. We'll kill him.

The worst show to ever become a hit in the history of television.

It would have made a great series, though. Better than The Odd Couple.

I could watch Batman at age 15.

But, just a year earlier (Dec 1964), Mom said “No way you are going to go see Goldfinger” (in so many words). Mom & Dad didn’t want their 13 year old son asking questions about “Pussy Galore” and then didn’t want me to see Jill Masterson get killed by being covered in gold paint.

Moms were tough that way. Nothing got past mom. And that was obviously WAY before you looked things up on the ‘net.

Well, Catwoman wasn't that evil. A truly evil woman will tell a man what he wants to hear, and then do whatever she wants. She can't kill Batman, and she just talks about offing Robin. Today's TV would make Batman a total wimp pussy whipped by Catwoman. They get everything wrong to the point I watch nothing anymore.

Oh, I don't know... I'd say that "Lost in Space" might have been worse.
