Ever have one of those days when you’re running around the city with a bomb held over your head and there’s just no place to dispose of it without hurting someone? Nineteen sixties TV Batman feels your pain.
If you’ve never seen the Batman TV show with Adam West, these gifs tell you everything you need to know. The show embraced the camp, each villain’s new scheme was more ridiculous than the last and Batman’s utility belt had an answer for literally every problem he could possibly encounter. While you might not like how the Dark Knight is portrayed, the show holds up incredibly well as a comedy.
Check out these wonderfully ridiculous gifs and let us know your favorite memories of the show in the comments.
