From the Editor: You're receiving special access to Private Briefing today because Bill has found a must-see chart we want to share with everyone, given what's happening (or not happening) in D.C. He also reminds his readers to invest in the American firm "flying" above all this nonsense. The story begins in Bill's living room, of all places, back in 1966...
When the Batman TV series debuted in 1966, my family was no different than most other American households - and quickly grew to like the campy-but-cool action/comedy.
My folks bought me toy Batmobiles - including one that pulled the "Bat Boat" on a trailer. And my Dad - always looking for ways to spend time with his son (something that continues to this day) - brought home model kits of the crime-fighting duo's sleek black hotrod, and even an exciting looking "Batplane."
And the program episodes themselves - with their tongue-in-cheek humor and "special guest villains" - were an absolute hoot. The cliff-hanger structure used in many of the episodes is something I remember to this day: I would watch, enrapt, as the "Dynamic Duo" of Batman and Robin fell into the clutches of such evildoers as The Riddler, Catwoman, and The Joker, who would capitalize on their temporary advantage to taunt the "caped crusaders."
