Holy Shark, Batman!
Oh me, oh my. After seeing my list of "TV Tailspins," a friend sent me this FANTASTIC clip from an old episode of "Batman." Wow. It is truly a thing of TV beauty.

I loved Carley's voice but all responsible adults, especially with daughters, would not vote for her because they wouldn't want their children to look up to her with all those awful tattoos. It was said many times she would be in the top 3 but I have said all along the tattoos were against her and most of the people I talked to said the same thing. It's a shame when a woman marks a beautiful body. She will do well with the rockers because of it but the majority don't care for that appearance.
Classic 60's campy TV.
Sorry Matthew, this was TV at it's greatest. For those who grew up on the Adam West Batman, this was all part of the over the top fun. Each week we'd see Batman and Robin "climbing up" a building and some celebrity would poke their head out of a window and start up a conversation. If I remember correctly, I think Frank Sinatra or Sammy Davis Jr. were just two of those famous faces. Then we'd see our Dynamic Duo trapped in some over the top booby trap only to hear our faithful announcer tell us to tune in next week "Same Bat time, same Bat channel".
Oh and how can I forget Eartha Kitt purring her way into our hearts as Catwoman, Meow!
