(I would have only been 5 when it started.) But I definitely watched reruns of it in the early 70's. It ran for a time in the afternoons after school on local TV. I was so glad when they finally released the series on DVD.

I had no idea that George Sanders originally portrayed him. I have to hunt down that episode!<br /><br />Thanks so much for bringing Mr. Freeze to the blogathon!Debbie Vegahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02561856975633743064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722895377719228596.post-89950786220080912582017-11-18T18:08:25.359-06:002017-11-18T18:08:25.359-06:00I think I paid $30 or $40 for the entire series fr...I think I paid $30 or $40 for the entire series from Target. It was a great investment. The show is a hoot. Especially the dry almost nonsensical upright straight arrow that Batman is. Typical exchange:<br /><br />Batman: "Better put 5 cents in the meter, Robin.<br />Robin: "No cop is going to ticket the Batmobile!"<br />Batman: "The money goes to build better roads, Robin. We must all do our part."<br /><br />Thanks for reading.Quiggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12434473473185065992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722895377719228596.post-67408829161569360822017-11-18T17:59:39.400-06:002017-11-18T17:59:39.400-06:00Wow!

(I think George Sanders would be my fave, too.)<br /><br />I've been watching some of the "Batman" clips on YouTube. What a fun time they must have had, filming this crazy show.Silver Screeningshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04955048716754142299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722895377719228596.post-70072787496820466792017-11-18T14:54:57.369-06:002017-11-18T14:54:57.369-06:00Its too bad the series didn't go on longer.
