Batman – *Uncut* 60’s TV episodes 23+24 (3 of 6) The Ring of Wax / Give ‘Em the Axe


Here is an uncut 2-part episode of the *classic* 60’s TV show Batman! (How amazing is Adam West?!) Unlike the hacked-to-death episodes aired on cable, this episode is complete! (It even has the original ABC “in color” opening, as well as the iconic “BATMAN! – In Color” bit too!) One other thing this episode still contains is the “next week’s villain” preview that is tacked to the end of “Give ‘Em the Axe” (part 6). These previews were cut from the prints when the show went into syndication. For those of you keeping score, these are episodes 23 & 24 of the show’s first season. It’s the third time Frank Gorshin played the Riddler. Hopefully, this wonderful series will find its way to either DVD or Blu-Ray soon. It’s a shame that the powers-that-be can’t come together and finally get this series out for us to enjoy. Because when you get right down to it, the major entertainment crazes of the 60’s were the “Three B’s” (Beatles, Bond, and Batman).

Batman – 60’s TV episodes 74+75 (2 of 6) That Darn Catwoman / Scat! Darn Catwoman


This Bat-story is a rarity in that it’s the only two-part adventure from the first or second season that *didn’t* air on consecutive nights…! Part 1 first aired on January 19, 1967, and part 2 was televised on January 25th. The reason for this oddity is due to these episodes coming *between* two different 3-part stories (a Penguin / Joker team-up, and then a Penguin / Marsha 3-fer). In this episode, Julie Newmar is back as the Catwoman, and she now has her own protege – singer Lesley Gore as “Pussycat”. (You can watch Lesley sing her song “California Nights” in part 2.) Speaking of Ms. Gore, there are two different versions of “Scat! Darn Catwoman” out there. One version has her singing her tune “Maybe Now”. The other version doesn’t. (This print is the version without the song, but a clip of the episode *with* the song is also up at YouTube: www.youtube.com ) Now you can see both versions! (And it’s not just a straight removal. Shots of a police car and of Robin (also seen during the song) are still in the print.)
