#157 Adam West as Catman; False Face; and a Camp Question

from To The Batpoles! Batman 1966

Part of Adam West's renaissance as a performer, once his fans were old enough to cast him in stuff, was voicing various versions of himself in cartoons. One of these was in Nickelodeon show The Fairly OddParents, in which "TV's Adam West" was the famous actor who had played the hero "Catman" — but thought he really was Catman! This time we take a look at Adam's appearances on the show. Also: The 7th issue of the Batman '66 comic book, featuring False Face! Art by past Deconstructing Comics interviewee Christopher Jones. One of the weirdest Batman theme versions we've found yet: Celio Balona's "Tema de Batman". Get your tent and your Coleman stove; we're going on another camping trip, this time exploring why the implausibilities of Batman '66, and other shows of its time, may not fly with today's young-adult TV viewers; We read your reaction to episode 154's discussion of Batfink and Waldo Kitty; And a few tidbits gleaned so far from our listener survey, which you can still submit here!
