We got this dvd for our boys because they love Batman.
But we thought we were getting TV episodes from years ago.
It turned out to be a documentary and no episodes.
Very dissapointed.
If what you are looking for is to find out what the actors think about making the show and that kind of stuff, this is the dvd for you.
Otherwise, don't bother.

If you enjoyed Adam West and Burt Ward's campy portrayal of the dynamic duo, then you will enjoy this retrospective look at the whole Batman craze sparked by them.
Especially interesting are the looks at Cesar Romero's and Julie Newmar's lives. If you enjoy this, you may wish to consider "The misadventures of Adam and Burt: Return to the Batcave" as well.
Now if only they would release the series and movie in a boxset.

I don't want to bash this DVD, but it seems to me all the material on these discs should be included on the Batman TV series DVD release. Although it's not set for release at this time, I can't help , but feel this DVD has all the available footage they're allowed to use. The Batman Documentary here is interesting enough as well as each of the star's documentaries (West,Romero and Newmar), but in each Documentary when they get to the Batman years, it's the same footage! To make matters worse the bonus features on disc two, seem like they could have fit on the first disc, making the two disc set a ploy to squeeze more money from fans of the series. If you own the movie, you already have a good portion of the Batman stuff. It's cool, but I could have waited for the series with this material added as extras. Holy Bat-poop! I've been scalped again!

I thought the DVD that I was purchasing showed some of the actual taped shows that aired on TV. I was looking for them for my grandson. A lot of interviews and the makings of Batman TV series and Movies, it was neat for an older person, but not a 4 year old. I just think the old batman for children to watch is better than the new releases. He does like the Batman Movie(old version) that I purchased.

It really doesn't make any difference how one percieves the quality of the television series Batman back in the 60's. The bottom line is that it was there for all to enjoy in all it's colorful jest and superhero humor! People who insist on seeing seasoned actors with deep meanings behind character are in for a real jolt with off the wall campiness that this series meant to project. Batman Begins was hailed as an extreme Batman movie because it was "deep", and the leading actor presented his problems, like the other Batman movies tried before previously, but failed with undeciding paths to seriousness, and campy humor. This Batman version shows no such struggle, but relishes in it's campiness with humor, costumes galore, camera angles, and added animation imagery. The villains in this series have become legendary, even if one doesn't side with the superheroes. I liked it, as well as the continued cliffhangers from the great television era long past us. So glad it's now available on dvd, for those hooked on superhero campy humor.
