The Batman character was originally created for detective Comics in 1939 by the great Bob Kane. Produced by American network ABC, the first television series exploded on to prime time television on January 12th 1966 after a multi-million dollar advertising campaign. The show was originally transmitted twice a week, on consecutive nights, with the first night always leaving either or both the Dynamic Duo in mortal danger at the hands of one of their outrageous arch-enemies. This was a ploy also used in the comic book version, the plot of which was, in nearly all ways, followed closely by the TV programme creators......

Criminals had murdered teenager Bruce Wayne's parents, leaving him as the sole beneficiary of a massive fortune which he used, over time, to create high-tech crime-fighting gadgetry, such as the implements contained in the famous 'utility belt', allowing him to adopt the alter-ego of the mysterious caped crusader, the Batman, whilst retaining the outward appearance of a casual rich 'playboy'. His secret base, the Bat Cave, was located underground beneath his opulent mansion Wayne Manor, 14 miles outside Gotham City, and was reached by means of the Bat-poles.


The Bat Cave housed a futuristic crime-fighting laboratory and a variety of vehicles, including the fabulous atomic-powered Batmobile. Dick Grayson, his young ward (whose parents had suffered a similar fate to Bruce's own) shared his crime-fighting obsession and, with time and training, became the other half of the Dynamic Duo as Robin - The Boy Wonder. The only person to know their true identities was Wayne's faithful butler Alfred (his family name, Pennyworth, was never used in the TV series), who had raised him after the death of his parents. Not even their 'Aunt' Harriet, who also lived in the mansion, suspected their secret. In times of dire need, Batman could be contacted by Commissioner Gordon, of Gotham City Police, by using the Bat-phone (secretly connected to Wayne Manor) or by means of the Bat-signal, an iconised bat image projected onto the clouds from a huge searchlight. There were many elements of 'pop art' in the productions, with outrageous costumes and cartoon balloons exclaiming 'ZAP!' 'POW!' 'KERUNCH!' etc. to a cacophanic musical background during the extremely contrived fight scenes. A highly successful spin-off feature film was made in 1966, but by the Autumn of that year TV ratings were beginning to fall. Transmissions were cut to once a week in 1967 and Batgirl was introduced into the series. Barbara Gordon, librarian daughter of Commissioner Gordon, was secretly Batgirl, with her own hideout and agenda but inevitably teamed up with the Dynamic Duo to eventually defeat their common enemy.

The arch-villains faced and thwarted by Batman each week were portrayed by guest stars - famous performers in their own right in many fields of entertainment, adding hugely to the success of the series. The show was also littered with other 'special guest stars', mainly in cameo roles, totalling 599 in all! The whole thing was deliberately camped up, terrific fun, and also endeavoured to bring across various social and moral messages to American youth - the main one being, of course, 'crime doesn't pay'. The show, one of the true 'cult' programmes of the 60s, ended after 120 episodes in the mid-season of Spring 1968.

Ed Graham Productions took up options on the television rights to the comic character Batman during the early Sixties, planning to produce an action adventure series aimed at the youth market, to air on CBS on Saturday mornings, a 'prime time' for this type of show. At the time, the Playboy Club in Chicago was screening the Batman serials produced in the 1940s which were proving to be popular and these were seen by ABC executive Yale Udoff who had been a Batman fan since childhood.

William Dozier - Sixties City - Batman the TV Series He contacted fellow executives Harve Bennett and Edgar J. Scherick, who had already been considering the possibility of producing a TV series based around the action heroes appearing in comic strips, and suggested the Batman character to them, presented in a more modern 'tongue in cheek' style, similar to the 'Man from U.N.C.L.E.' spy series. Negotiations between Ed Graham and CBS fell through, so the rights were reobtained by DC Comics, brokering a deal with rivals ABC, who granted the actual production rights to 20th Century Fox and who, in turn, gave the project to William Dozier's Greenway Productions company.

Dozier (left, who also 'narrated' the series with a character called Desmond Doomsday) actually disliked the comic book hero genre and proceeded to create a camped-up 'pop art' interpretation, despite ABC and Fox's expectations of a modern, semi-serious adventure series. Eric Ambler had been approached to write the 'television movie' story that normally launched a new series, but turned down the offer when he saw the style of Dozier's production. ABC had, in any case, moved the planned series debut date forward to January 1966, so any associated movie-length production would have to wait until the end of the first series and then be produced quickly to hit the movie theatres before the start of the expected second series.

Sixties City - Batman the TV Series For casting, two full screen tests were filmed, one with Lyle Waggoner and Peter Deyell in the title roles but it was the pairing of Adam West and Burt Ward who were offered the parts. Mike Henry is supposed to have been considered for the starring role originally, in a more dramatic presentation style, but although getting as far as posing for some very early pre-production publicity photographs he didn't end up with the part. Lorenzo Semple, Jr. was the head script writer who authored the pilot script for the show. Stanley Ralph Ross, Charles Hoffman and Stanford Sherman were also signed up as script writers due to the similarity of their story treatment which tended towards satirical, camp and even slapstick comedy.

Although originally intended to be a one-hour show, it was realised that, at the planned debut time, ABC actually had only two half-hour early-evening time slots available so each story was split into two parts, with a 'cliffhanger' at the end of the first part in the style of 'movie serials', to air twice weekly in half-hour installments.

A feature of the show was its complement of 'guest' stars which included not just actors but many sports, music, and media personalities, who were not only keen to get the exposure provided by a highly-rated television series, but to actually enjoy themselves with the almost obligatory 'over-acting' and camp portrayal of their characters.

Batman's most frequently seen and famous arch-enemies were the foursome that included Cesar Romero as The Joker, Burgess Meredith as The Penguin, Frank Gorshin as The Riddler and Julie Newmar as The Catwoman. Stars cast as the main villain were always credited as "Special Guest Villain". Other villains from the collection in the comic books also appeared, some were unashamedly adapted from other superhero comics and a number were created especially for the television series - some to allow for the personality, talent or 'typecast' characterisation that best suited the 'special guest villain' e.g., Shame, The Siren, Chandell. Some of the villains created for the TV show would later be adopted for subsequent animated series or comic strip appearances.


The live action series had 19 different directors and 33 writers credited. In September 1968 CBS produced a half-hour animated series of Batman in which the Dynamic Duo shared an hour with Superman in a double feature. The animated version was much less 'camp', very likely in response to fan criticism of the original live action series, but still only lasted two seasons.

An episode that was never made - a script was written for the 1968 series by Harlan Ellison in which Clint Eastwood was cast as 'Two Face'!  Some other unproduced script titles include: 'A Cat's Tale', 'The Joker Bounces Back', 'The Sinister Scent of Lilacs', 'The Phantom Pharoah', 'Tut Tut Tut', 'Hickory Dickory Doc', 'Please Omit the Tomatoes', and 'The Fashion of Crime' (from 'The William Dozier Papers' inventory at the University of Wyoming).
Also see: Bill Harry's Sixties - 'Batman'
Only three 'criminals' actually definitely 'die' during the series: Molly (The Riddler's moll played by Jill St. John in episode 2) accidentally falls into an atomic reactor in the Batcave and two hired gunmen who aim to shoot Batman and Robin but kill each other instead (in 'Zelda The Great'/'A Death Worse Than Fate'). Catwoman appears to fall to her death twice, but cats have nine lives as well as being able to land on their feet, so she always turned up again in a later story.

Robin had one of the few 'catchphrases' born from the series, frequently saying 'Holy (insert suitable word), Batman' when encountering something sufficiently startling. Another stemmed from the 'narrator of the series (actually producer William Dozier - known as 'Desmond Doomsday', but uncredited) who questioned the chances of survival of the dynamic duo at the end of the first part of many of the cliffhanger episodes then pulled us in by inviting us all back with 'Tune in tomorrow — same Bat-time, same Bat-channel!

Only two villains ever discover Batman's real identity. Egghead achieves it by deductive reasoning but is tricked into disbelieving his own conclusion. King Tut actually finds out twice, but is tricked in a manner similar to Egghead the first time and forgets after a whack on the head the second time. Under the spell of Joan Collins' 'Siren' Commissioner Gordon finds his way into the Batcave underneath Wayne Manor but Alfred gasses him to prevent him passing the information on.

Sixties City - Batman the TV Series

The Batmobile had to be created in 21 days. In the comic strips Batman drove various types of machine, but nothing that looked like any type of production car, so a suitable, futuristic-looking vehicle was needed quickly. Bob Kane, the originator, presented George Barris with his problem. Barris had recently purchased the 1955 Lincoln Futura concept car from the Ford Motor Company after it had been used in the 1959 movie 'It Started With a Kiss'. Designed by Lincoln-Mercury and built in Italy by coachbuilder Ghia, it was certainly a spectacular enough base unit but Barris had less than three weeks to get the Batmobile designed, built and delivered. The basic shape of the Futura was left alone, but the rest of the car received radical modifications. The nose, tail and side panels were completely reworked with a bat theme including hooded headlights, a peaked nose and nostril-like hood scoops. The radical remodelling continued at the rear where stock trim was either removed or moulded over, particularly the 84" fins which were reshaped for a cleaner look and decorated as batwings.

An 'atomic exhaust' was mounted in the centre beside which sat two 10ft diameter Deist "Batchute" air brakes were mounted. The hollow exhaust tube allowed special visual and sound effects to be installed. The 'plexiglas' bubble canopy was retained but the centre section was removed and replaced with a customised rollbar that carried the flashing light and radio aerials. Three rocket launchers were installed behind the canopy.

The interior was completely reworked with all the instruments required by a modern superhero, including: Cable Cutter Blade, Bat Ray Projector, Anti-Theft Device, Detect-a-Scope, Batscope, Bat Eye Switch, Antenna Activator, Police Band Cut-In Switch, Automatic Tyre Inflation Device, Remote Batcomputer—radio linked to the main Batcomputer in the Batcave, the Batphone, Emergency Bat Turn Lever, Anti-Fire Activator, Bat Smoke, Bat Photoscope, Emergency Bat Turn lever and Bat Chutes, Batnet and Mobile Batcomputer in the boot, a rear-facing camera under the turbine exhaust port, Automatic fire extinguisher, Bat Beam, Bat- Ram and Voice Control Batmobile Relay Unit.

Technical specifications: Kerb weight: 4500 lb Wheelbase: 126 in Length: 226 in Width: 90 in Height: 48 in Fins: 84 in Engine: 390 in³ Ford FE V-8 Transmission: B&M Hydro Automatic (2nd transmission) Secondary power plant- rear mounted turbine, capable of propelling it for 15 seconds. A set of Rader cast-alloy five-spoke wheels capped with bright red bats completed the makeover. The main license plate seen in the series was 2F-3567 (1966) but TP-3567; BT-1 were also used.
(mouse over Batmobile for original Futura car image)

Such was the popularity of the car that Barris built a further two copies for exhibition work and one for the drag racing circuit. The original still exists and is due to go on (has gone on) sale at an auction on January 19th 2013. Besides the legendary Batmobile, there were several 'Batcycles' - both in the series and the film, and the version used by Batgirl, the Batboat and the Batcopter.
