Real sad news to hear that the legend Adam West has passed away. I used to love watching the reruns of Batman on Saturday morning breakfast TV when I was a kid (no I'm not old enough to watch it first time round before anyone makes a joke) and while other screen Batmen may be bigger and badder, none of them can put a psychedelic super-popping-colourific smile on my face like he can! We salute you! KAPOW!!!!!!
Here's the late great man himself in a clip from one of my favourite eps!
@caseyb1993 Aw ye I know, I remember I used to watch Batman and Wonder Woman all the time, they were great! Did you ever get to watch any when you were a kid? We love our grown-up DC movies but the old Batman's were just loads of fun for kids to watch! Especially when it was a Riddler episode! 🙂
@caseyb1993 The shows are cheesy and tongue-in-cheek now, but when I was a kid you don't see that, you just think this is amazing! I mean, that Batmobile! 😄 Double the fun, enjoy as a kid, enjoy for a totally different reason as an adult! 😉
Ah, anyway, for anyone who's interested here's a fun little page about why we love Adam West's Batman

and another more serious one about why he shouldn't be dismissed as the 'daft one'!
