To The Batpoles! Batman 1966Author: Tim and Paul
Like many who grew up in the '60s and '70s (and perhaps even '80s and later), Tim and Paul had the course of their lives changed by the 1966 Batman TV show, from the types of play they did growing up to their present-day interests. In this series, they discuss the show's allure and its failures, the arc of the show from satire to sitcom, its influences (the '40s serials and the comic books themselves) and the things it, in turn, influenced.

BAT BITS #33: Why such a long recap for "Joker Goes to School"? NOW LIVE ON PATREON!
Thursday, 21 May, 2026
Recently on BAT BITS we talked about what went into writing the recap we see at the start of part two of many Batman episodes. Then we noticed that the recap of "The Joker Goes to School" is considerably longer than any other Season One recap. This time, we look for clues as to why this recap lasts 2 and a half minutes, when all of the others are less than 2:00! Subscribe to our Patreon for $2 a month for bi-weekly examinations of Batman 66 on BAT BITS, or, for $4 a month, get that AND our monthly discussion of silver age Batman comics, as Paul or another in our stable of co-hosts joins Tim to examine individual Batman stories from the 1950s and '60s — most recently, Tim and Kumar discussed the origin of Killer Moth from BATMAN issue 63! So slide down your Batpole and join today!
