#1 Burt Ward is still around did a little acting after being Robin. He’s a special effects contractor now.
Never got the them being gay thing. Always more a father/son thing Mentor/student but not homosexual. Now the show may have been a little gay but that’s different.
No “Holy oleo”?!? WHAT? That was the best one ever, and they left it out?
B&R are tied to large grills on the roof of a building, with large magnifying glasses ready to roast them. The evil mastermind mentions (s)he covered them in butter to help the cooking, and the following exchange occurs:
Robin: “Holy oleo, Batman!”
Criminal: “Why, Robin – I didn’t know you knew how to yodel.”
#1 – “Wonder what ever happened to Robin? I think Adam West is still around.”
West is still around as is Burt Ward (Robin). Looked them up on good old Wikipedia where I found that they both have web sites, Burt’s site capitalizing entirely on his role in the Batman series.
Actually, I now prefer Adam West’s current role in Family Guy to his role in the old Batman series.
Hmmn, the sixties, ya had to be there to even come anywhere close to understanding it. To go from the carbon copy conformity values of the 50′s, to the burnout hippie acid values of the 70′s. The B&R TV show was a effort to maintain the kids of the 60′s with values of the 50′s. Obviously it didn’t work, kids don’t take their values from cartoons, I don’t care how many or much. Personally I liked the green hornet better. Kato was the bomb! That’s why it failed, having a chinese actor as a hero on a popular TV show was bad for the war effort, everybody with oriental traits was to be referred to as a gook. Like I said, ya had to be there.
#14 Nope. Contrary to old wives tales, gays don’t ‘become’ gay through any external inspiration. This is especially true in villages where you were hatched from.
And yes, your as close to an old wife as they come.
Used to love that show even before I realized they were a gay couple doing good work for Gotham.
Wonder what ever happened to Robin? I think Adam West is still around.
Holy crap! That’s a lot of holy’s!
This is why guys created the Internet.
wonder how many times he said “Holey Shit” when the cameras weren’t rolling?
“Holy knit one, purl two?” Really, Robin…

HOLEY CHEESE, Pun intended..
Funny, but they left out my favorite “Holy uncanny photographic mental processes!”

@ECA…I guess Swiss cheese is better than “Holy Guacamole!”
#6 #10 – thanks.
Also, the gay thing was just a joke given their outfits.
#6 They inspired #1 to be what he is today.
#1 – Burt Ward wrote a book “Boy-Wonder-My-Life-Tights” I’ve been meaning to read some day.
According to him a lot of women wanted to eat some Robin back in the day.

WTF am I babbling about, I better take my meds now.
Holy Batgirl!
Wow, Yvonne Craig is so fantastic looking that I can almost get past the homoeroticism of that show.
BTW, what kind of person has the time and desire to go through that many old Batman episodes and find all those clips?
