Also, the best ever mayor of Quahog.
Also, he had a great part in Batman, the animated series, as the Grey Ghost...
That was a nice episode, a terrific concept.
Not sure who downvoted you there. That episode was awesome. I had no idea that was Adam West, which makes it even better when reflecting on it now.
Maybe he'll be back next week.
Same Bat Time!
Same Bat Channel!
No one else ever came close. He didn't need no stinkin' suit of armor. 100% pure West.
Rest in Peace, Caped Crusader.
Julie Newmar was indeed very hot!
Not to get off-thread, but "Holy Hot Stuff Batman!" Her and Mrs. Emma Peel (Avengers)
RIP Batman. Say hey to Commisioner Gordon (d1984) and Chief O'Hara (d1974)
Edit - not that anyone but me cares in the least, but it is fitting that a Julie Newmar comment broke my MGoCherry
Yep - she was the first woman to make me feel funny in my Oshkosh B'goshes, back in the day
RIP Adam - you had a good run
Heres to memories.
Nobody messes with Adam We.
Back in the late 60s when I was 6 and 7 years old. You know you are getting old when all your favorite childhood actors and television personalities all begin to die off. I hope I can live in relatively good health well into my 80s. RIP Adam West!
RIP Batman
Somtimes yoiu just have a bad day. RIP Bombman.
Or a good one.
I actually met West at Motor City ComicCon a few years ago - he was a pretty warm, friendly guy in person, at least for the minute or so that we got to chat, and he was pretty self-effacing about the delightful cheesiness of the original Batman too.
RIP Adam West.
Le Batard curse. Just barely over a month ago he was on the show.
Exactly why Super Dave Osborne won't come on the show anymore, which is a bummer because he is hilarious.
"Atomic batteries to power. Turbines to speed."
Well, I guess I'm watching some Batman tonight.
RIP.
It must be noted that the fabulous Glen Headly passed yesterday. Fuck indeed.
Gordie Howe passed a year ago today. :(
What a ridiculous name for a cat!
"What DON'T you have in that belt?"
Followed by Bart telling Milhouse how Krusty also played Uncle Velderschmoink on "Bewitched." Pop culture reference heaven!
Is there anyone or anything left from my childhood anymore? I'm afraid to name names and jinx them!
What a great and funny guy, you really have to watch the documentary Starring Adam West https://youtu.be/DjyhUIdRStQ
Don't forget the original Batman movie! The rest were pure garbage compared to the TV show and this movie!
