Well, we’ve made it to the end of Batman season two. It’s hard to believe, actually. I mean, with 60 episodes to cover, we’ve been in this season for over a year! It was a season full of familiar faces, a hearty helping of new villains, and a few weak moments for the series, too. So, before we move on to season three, let’s take a quick look back.

Episode Title: Ice Spy
Original Airdate: March 29, 1967
Most of the guest villains on Batman were played by a single actor throughout the series’ entire run. Cesar Romero was the only Joker, Burgess Meredith the only Penguin, and so on. When it comes to Mr. Freeze, though, the character appeared in three stories and each time was played by a different actor. We first met him in season one as played by George Sanders, then earlier this season we saw him played by Otto Preminger, but now we get to the version of Freeze I’ve been most looking forward to. The one and only Eli Wallach comes to Gotham to begin the conclusion of season two in Ice Spy. Continue reading Batman S:02 E:59

Anyhow, will the team suffer without him, though? We’ll find out in today’s episode, Birds of a Feather. Continue reading Mighty Morphin Power Rangers S:01 E:36
This week we were to begin our look at the final two-episode story of Batman season two. However, it didn’t seem right to just continue on business as usual after the passing of Batman himself, Adam West, this past Friday. The role of the Caped Crusader would define West’s career. He was one of the big reasons that this series has endured and holds such a special place in the hearts of fans of all ages. Continue reading Adam West, 1928-2017
