It'll never be 1966
18 February 2021
Not that it's any fault of the cartoon, DC comics just created a story disaster for themselves in some attempt to reinvent their heroes to compete with marvel and they failed. But once your going into space and time traveling you can only make it campy in an animated sense. It's light and fun but the humor doesn't come through as well because the animation is done well... As opposed to 1966 you just had phenomenal regular villains from Caesar Romano's Joker to Julie Newmar's catwoman. Adam West brought "Square" to an entirely new level. Explaining to Robin that even deputized crime fighters must obey the Traffic Laws, and pay the meter is hysterical. Throwing in Aunt Harriet...and the sets were done well and the production was not cheap. So in terms of the "light" crime fighter vs Vincent Price"s Egghead...was just egg-celent LOL. But this is as close as you'll get.
