Wild Life of Adam West Batman 1966 TV Series Biography 

Helicart! Wow Wow Wow! Thank You so much! I really appreciate the support and it means a lot to me, that you enjoyed the video that much 😁

@@CoolClassics You're welcome. I note you have many more videos of my old tv favorites, and I will be sure to watch them as able. I actually have the batman theme as my ring tone on cell phone. :) And F Troop, The Munsters, Beverley Hillbillies, Gilligan's Island, Hogan's Heroes, Bewitched, I Dream of Genie, Happy Days were all staples before dinner after school in the 60s and early 70s. They provided a lot of laughs to my parents and brothers, and contributed to a happy home environment. The humor was so good, and unfortunately there is nothing similar today. Thanks again for your efforts to honor this phase of Hollywood.

Being born in 71, I was lucky to have all of the 60s shows on constant rerun. F Troop and the Munsters were always my favorites, Later on it became Hogan's Heroes. But all of the 60s shows are just great! The 70's and early 80s had some awesome show too:)

@@CoolClassics the film Ur looking for could be one starring Walter matthau and Inger stevens..that scenes very similar to scene in that.

@@CoolClassics GG

Wow that's awesome

WoW!

@@jamesf931what a lovely story that's what you call a gentleman don't get many star's like that . May he rest in peace.

It's cool to see that Adam finally found his niche in cartoons! That's a pretty good living !!

❤️ adam west my hero, got batman 1966 on dvd

most good people are gone now.

I haven't! 😊

1. I totally believe your recollection! 2. Excellent video! 👌 3. What a fascinating life! 😲 4. Why isn’t there a BIG Hollywood movie about Adam West’s life? 🤔

😁👍

You're right. He was perfect for his role on the Batman TV series.

Well said! He was well versed in the theatre of the absurd (as he mentioned in the DVD commentary). In particular, the way he says 'Catwoman' in one scene in the movie is just perfect, uniquely brilliant *and* funny. It sounds like 'cat-whuman'!

Straight men are comedians along with clowns, two sides of the same coin. Odd, but true.

6 2 170 what?

😁👍

👍💜

I loved watching him as a kid, Never missed a batman show. Same bat time, same bat channel.

Envy.

Thank you so much!💜

Your mom sounds cool.

@@pedrogudino1133 yep, been under ground for about 23 years, pretty cool under there

Hi Jason Walsh. That's dispicable that your mother treated you like that. I hope you didn't for give her. Because if that was me I wouldn't want to know a mother like that. I hope your wounds have Heeld. And you no longer worry about it. All the best for 2023. And God be with you. from 🇬🇧👍👍 an old cockney gal

Yo bro , Hopefully you are staying strong. My prayers are with you. Sincerely with love, Me

I feel you, My mother was the same way and early in life I managed to move to my grandmother’s living until I was old enough to drive, work, and rent

Cool

Now that is very Lucky and Cool! 😎👍💜

@@CoolClassics had Glenda won some kind of a prize contest for the privilege of sharing time n space with Adam west ? How did this occur?

LOL, that was FUNNY!

Ll

💜

I agree 100%! He was the original and the Best Period !!!!

Man That's A FACT RIP MR.WEST!!!😇❤

And your rite.he was the greatest 1

Wow man that was an Awesome experience 👏 😎 👌

Great story; Adam came to my college. They had a bat banner hanging for a week before! I actually wasn’t able to go and I regret it.

What an incredible experience 👏

Great story... thanks for sharing. I had a similar experience with someone famous about 30 years ago, and I reluctantly said "no." It taught me that if your heart say "yes" and your head says "no"... then say "yes!"

It really is great to watch. I love all the villiams too :)

I agree

I even refused to attend any movie with a replacement actor doing the role of Batman. Wouldn't have none of it.

Same bat time, same bat station! I was 9 then too!

I was 6 but who's counting? Lol..

I am the same age. I remember all the kids on my street would be outside playing and when it was time for Batman to come on we would all scatter and run to our homes to watch it.

🙏

😁👍

Adam West Struggled For ANY Cash.

Sable! Thank You So Much! 😁So glad you noticed and like all the pics and clips that I tried to match up to the story! I was born in 71, so I grew up with all of the 60's shows in reruns, as a kid, and have loved them ever since. They are still my go to shows. Thank You for being Cool! 😎

💜

Yes, I grew up with that show among others. It was very clever!

With that voice, it's amazing the Gotham police force couldn't figure that Bruce Wayne was Batman. Of course, it's fiction.

Is this 'The Grey Ghost' of The ACW Confederate 'Mosby' ? - in UK I knew there was a TV 'Western series, but had no idea it made it to mention on Batman the animated series (never into any of these 'super heroes' to be honest)

@@williamanderson5437 In season one, of Batman: The Animated Series, there was an episode titled, "Beware the Gray Ghost" (I should have mentioned the episode' title in my first comment). I just looked up the show you referenced and besides the title/name of the lead character, there appears to be no other connection. The Gray Ghost that Adam West voiced, owes more to one of Batman's spiritual forebearer, The Shadow, of pulp novels and radio fame. If superheroes aren't your thing, but you make the exception with the 60's Batman show, "Beware The Gray Ghost" is an absolute must see. On another note, thank you Cool Classics, for making this documentary. I know I came off as unappreciative, but there was more about West' career that deserve acknowledgement.

The Gray Ghost is awesome. I remember watching that episode when it was new as a kid.

I’m sorry but, don’t you mean….a batfan

Exactly 💯

He was the best never rated any of the players of his character in the later films.

He was a piece of shit person. I say that having met him more than once!

Well said, Rotax. I agree with your sentiments, exactly.

That’s a really nice and warm message. I feel the same way exactly. Kudos to you and your reply !!

Nicely said. I am also glad that things worked out well for Adam West.

I've seen Adam west bad mouthing his roll as Batman on the series but that hadda be some sort of gag cause THROUGH out his life story he looked happy doing the battoosie and all the other batinteractions he's noted as seen portraying the Batman... Plus Jimbo Flores gave me that Nick name for my Life and it has always stuck so how can I bad mouth Batman... Long live Batman ! ! !

Everything dry up it bc u

👍💜

@Nature Autocorrect can be so annoying. You are right about Adam West. He is the difinitive Batman.

The first Batman movie from the 60’s was so funny.

"I was one step away from sitting on a dunk tank in carnivals" What a climb back.

I dont know why but the older generations were so tough and resilient. My dad is my resilient hero. Born 1933.

​@@jamesmedina2062That is such a nice thing to say, I could say the same about my Dad.

Absolutely im 40 and i watched adam in batman as a kid he was a great super hero ahead of his time

Your absolutely right about old actors and people being tougher than today i think it has alot to do with growing up through thr depression. My grand parents were tough ss nails

Well put, it seems to me that Adam West actually lived his (in my opinion) exemplary life with the morality and ethics of his Batman character, I have huge respect for the man (and Burt Ward too)

@@rotax636nut5 ........I like Adam West but "morality and ethics".........lol. You think a guy who slept with as many woman as he did and went to orgies has morality and ethics? Oh brother!

@@rotax636nut5 yeah right, screwing dozens of women every week is moral.

Isn't that the truth. To a child especially words can hurt beyond the measure. It has actually destroyed some people's lives. I'm glad for him that perhaps it made him work hard but hopefully it did it for himself and not to try to win the approval of a mother who obviously had serious issues. I think his father was pretty damn nice. I'm very glad that his father was able to find a wife who could love him and Adam. She must have been a very loving lady. Wouldn't mind knowing more about her and Adam's father.

Yep. I had a normal one. Now I understand why prosecutors take childhood into consideration. I didn't get how messed up some people's life could be.

Adam West's Mother Was a Typical, Feminist Influenced, Hypergamous Modern Women, Following Briffaults Law. Mgtow knowledge Has The Details About How Feminism Destroyed Families.

"It's all Pretend, it's just play acting," Mom told me... well Mom, not all of it was play acting

I guess his floozy mother really was a flop in Hollywood. Otherwise, she could have acted like Bette Davis, Tallulah Bankhead, and others, each of whom had several abortions.

Thank You so much! 😁👍

Thank You Cookie! You know, i get the old saying is true, if you wait long enough, everything comes back in style. It is just a shame that the cycle of hating on the previous generation, continues to this day.

😁👍

Me also

She's a typical narcissist. You're right, though; she could've leeched off of his popularity if she had just supported him.

I met him twice only for him to be a complete asshole and yell at me. Had this been now with me older...i would have put him on the news by putting him in his place. He was a horrible coward of a man!

​@@robd1329What did he do to b an ass hole? Are u sure it wasn't partly your fault?

That is awesome!

Too built

Lucky you

Thank you very much!

Collectors Item now

Thank You, William! 😁👍

Wow! Thank You Edward! 😁👍

I used to have a crush on him in 2nd grade..and had a BATMAN lunchpail🤣 It's odd, since I was tte only girl with a "boy" lunchpail Girls had more like barbies or flowers ☺️😋

I use to enjoy the sound effects while they fought: pow, whom, klunk, bam, boop, whop, etc,...

@@kathleenking47 I enjoyed the creativity of Batman's nemesis, Joker, Riddles, Bette Davis as the Black Widow, Book Worm. Catwoman, very creative.

@@aarondigby5054 it's because the nemesis are also better well known actresses actors Burgess Meredith, Eartha Kitt,Cesar Romero.. Probably except for Frank gorshin

I really appreciate all the nice comments and support 💜

Yes Thank you Sir 4 an Outstanding Biography!!

Maybe you can make in to Walla Walla for the 5th anniversary of Adam West Day :)

👍😁

Be proud of having done the right thing. There aren't many of us who don't just take, take, take from celebrities, maybe believing that it's part of their job description from being famous. If I'm at a mass meet/greet for a couple of words and an autograph, of course I'll have them sign something. But anything more personal than that, I won't, even when everyone else is. Most of the celebrities I've spent actual time talking to not in a mass-meet/greet setting, have been astronauts, scientists, and rock stars. I'm turning 65, and have asked for exactly photos/autographs while meeting and socializing with them. What the autograph/photo/story hounds don't realize, is that they really notice when you are actually considerate of them as a regular human being. I was on a solar eclipse cruise to Africa in 1973, and it turned out that a kid I played ping pong with because he was one of only 2 other kids on the cruise capable of beating me, was Neil Armstrong's kid. I realized it when Neil came into the game room to tell the kid when to be back in the cabin to get ready for dinner. He watched us finish the game first. I could see that he was happy to be somewhere than nobody was bothering him for a few minutes, only the 3 of us were there. For the rest of the cruise, he'd head over to talk to me whenever he spotted me, to shake the 10-50 people who were ALWAYS swarming around him for stories, photos, and autographs. Likewise, the Animals guitarist (Hilton Valentine) who was an old friend of my girlfriend at one time, invited us backstage after a concert. We didn't bother Eric Burdon, mainly hung with Hilton. So, Eric came over to us while we were all having beer and sandwiches, and we had a great conversation about real stuff, not fan stuff. Fans themselves, turn celebrities off to interacting, because it's always the same stuff trying to get a piece of their time/attention, and something to show from it. Kinda sucked being probably the only one of the 2000 cruise passengers without an autograph from Neil, but the memory of treating him right, and his noticing/appreciating that, matters more. A genuine memory of an interaction THEY liked with you, is worth more than a piece of paper proving you had an interaction they probably didn't like.

@rkitchen. He'd prolly told u how it was! I don't think he started shooting blanks till he was 80! Lol!

Very Cool experience! Thank You for sharing 😁👍

Thank you so much!
