Needless Things Podcast 46 - Batman ‘66

2015-02-18

Phantom Troublemaker and the ESO Network’s “Howdy” Mike Gordon convene to discuss a common favorite topic – the live-action Batman television show, now commonly colloquialized as Batman ’66. The recent release of the entire series as a deluxe Blu-ray box set prompted this episode. Both of the guys crammed in as much Bat-Viewing as they could to prepare for this look back at a critical point in not only the history of the Dynamic Duo, but at a very specific point in the development of television and American pop culture.
