You've never seen the 1960s Batman?

That I'm surprised about.

I used to watch Batman, and love it.
That said, I had to stop watching this video after the first minute.
Otherwise, I think I might go crazy!

I haven't seen it on any of the oldies channels.
Might be some episodes on youtube...

I grew up on Batman. My older brother used to sing the Batman theme song, and bop me a few times.

I find it, honestly, much more appealing than the later, "dark" Batman.

Agreed. Campy Adam West Batman was brilliant.

Angsty, 3-year-old's-bad-guy-voice Christian Bale Batman not so much. Although Tom Hardy's Bane was unintentionally hilarious.
