Sadly, the actual show has never been released on video. The problem stems from the rights to Batman ( the character ) and the rights to the show. Someday we hope 20th Century Fox and Warner Brothers can come to an agreement but until that time, no commercial release is available. We don't sell episodes so don't ask the moderators but feel free to post a message on the board under Bat Merchandise and you might get an answer. We do not endorse nor comment on tape sales and if you wish to pursue purchasing tapes, you are on your own. We DO suggest you check out Amazon or Buy.com for the 1966 Batman movie which IS available on DVD and VHS cassette.

Well, many have gone to Bat heaven but Adam West, Burt Ward, Yvonne Craig, and many of the main villains from the show are alive and well. I would suggest you check out the main site for bios, sound clips and links to more info.
The Batmobile section is located HERE and Eric owns the best Batmobile site on the web- The 1966 Batmobile Site. The Batmobile is one of the coolest cars ever made and Eric has done a super job.
David Sutton owns the site and message board. All question can be directed to me from the main Batman site. This site is not affiliated with DC Comics, Warner Brothers, 20th Century Fox nor any other commercial entity and is 100% non profit. I just do this for fun. ( Sometimes I wonder about that ) :)
So you want to play Caped Crusader huh? Well the best ( and only IMO )place to purchase a 100% superb recreation of the Cowl or complete costume is from our friend Wally Wingert !! His site is located HERE . Wally is not only a craftsman beyond compare as far as costumes, he is one talented dude. Check out his site to see the many roles he has played in movies and TV.
Well the interest runs high for many of the old Batman Items from our youth. To locate specific items you could try the Bat Merchandise section on the board, many folks with Batman related items are there frequently or another possibility is try looking at Ebay - a word of caution, be careful with autographed items, some are probably signed by Joe Makeabuck rather than Adam or one of the other stars.
While we welcome any and all comments about the site, also remember that we make NO money off this site and we do have regular jobs outside of Gotham City. We may not be as quick to repair, replace, reload , redesign, add new items as a site that the owners receive a profit. We do care about the content and are continually making efforts to improve, however emails such as " fix this " or " add that" or "send me..." probably will go unanswered. Constructive thoughts, contributions of materials ( photos, articles, personal info) or a friendly email about a non working function of the site or message board is always appreciated .
Ahh good question there. We really do try to have an open forum here, however, there are limits. Profanity, Abuse of the board or others, filthy language, Degrading or disrespectful comments about the stars from the show, things you wouldn't want your mother to read, you get the idea , are things we do not allow. The main reason we host our own board on our own server is we have control over the content. Gdog and I and future moderators are the law as far as the board is concerned. We want everyone to enjoy their stay and have a great experience here so somebody has to watch over the board. The first time a post is determined to fall under the above description it will be deleted and a warning sent. Hopefully that will be the end of our involvement but should it continue, a message " Sorry, you are not allowed to post/reply. Please contact the administrator." will be placed on your membership and we shall go from there.
We are in contact with many of the stars and or their agents from the series and appreciate the efforts of folks to contact them for a donation, appearance, autograph, DNA sample or anything else however , they value their privacy and if you want to contact them we cannot help. If the stars want to give out personal information great but it is not our job nor right to infringe on their private lives.
Yes, actually they are. Batman is the property of Warner Brothers / Dc Comics and 20th Century Fox ( as far as the 1966 series ) and it is their property. Are tapes sold collector to collector? Yes they are. Will you go to jail for buying one ? No I doubt it however I have heard that DC /Warners is really looking into illegal merchandise. It is probably not a wise thing to advertise if you are selling tapes due to the copyright issues. If the tapes WERE ever released I wouldn't have to even answer this question.
Rest assured this is MY board, not some huge corporation's and I have no desire to do ANYTHING with your email. If you wish to keep it private, make sure and check the " Hide Email" button in your user profile. The reason for requiring an email is to be able to better ban abusers from the board and no other reason than that.
Yes, but I am not alone........... :)
Please enjoy the site, you might find out something interesting and you may wind up with some good friends along the way. I know I have !
