there would be a lot of talk on some of the hollywood actors who would play as the Joker but no one I ever seen would even come close to Ceasar Romero, he was the best as the joker
@@jivetalk1045 Romero was perfect as the Joker of that time period. In the comics in the 1960s, Joker was just a common criminal. Ceasar Romero would not work as the evil, serial killer as portrayed today
I am 65 years old and i still have my original Batman long playing 33 and a third record with original album i still play it. its still fun and i would not sell it for a thousand dollars
Not going to watch this because this is Bull shit. Burt ward who played Robin isn't dead and isn't disabled in a hospital bed. He and his wife live in thousand oaks CA and have over 50 dogs and have their own dog and cat food under the name of Gentle Giants, it's very good I buy it. Don't know Why the split picture of him as Robin then a old heavy Guy on his death bed hooked up in the hospital.
The idiot that owns this channel does that in every single one of his videos. It despicable and I only came in here to give it a thumbs down for exactly that reason.
Yup Burt Ward is still very much alive this is click bait bullshit I've reported it but these are still allowed I saw one on "the tragic end of William Shatner" the other day
Don't forget old B & W horror films Vincent was in, He did some bits with Alice Cooper, Black-widow song and cameo in Welcome to my nightmare video . He had that perfect voice.
As a kid, I would have rather had my left arm ripped from it's socket than miss single episode of Batman. It originally was on prime time on CTV but then moved to late afternoons after Rocketship 7. All these characters on Batman were born for their roles. Vincent Price also made appearances on the Hilarious House of Frankenstein in the 70's and was the eerie voice in the theme intro in this ingenious comedy starring Billy Van. Joker, Riddler, Penguin, Cat Woman as my favorite villains. The fight scenes were better with the more upbeat music. I never watched any other Batman movies that replaced Adam West. They were like step wives to me. I never had a step mom but if I did there is no way I could view her as my mom.
Batman was shot at the old Selznick Studio in Culver City. When I was in High School, I spent some time on the Batman set. It was a lot of fun. Having been brought up in the movie business, I never really was enthralled by actors and actresses. In all the years I spent at so many studios, the ONLY autograph I ever asked for was Burgess Meredith (the Penquin). He was very kind and graciously gave it to me. I have it today. Those were fun days.
You are probably too young. The original Batman on film was Played by Lewis Young in the 1941 Batman Columbia serial simply entitled "Batman." Douglas Croft portrayed Robin. The main villan in the serial was the evil Japanese organized crime spy Dr. Daka, brilliantly portrayed by J. Carol Naish. After a brief two consecutive weekend run in theaters in 1966, the serial had been suppressed for many years due to its racist nature against the Japanese in WWII. When eventually released on VHS, mush of its racist dialogue had been dubbed over with less offensive language. Later on DVD, all had been restored as originally presented.
Vincent Price married an Australian in 1974. While he was in Sydney he appeared at The Aquatic Club in Mosman. My Dad was the Secretary Manager. He told me the story of that night. None of the Bar Staff turned up for their shift. Dad was alone, Vincent Price was popular so the show was booked out. When Vincent finished, Dad opened the Bar. As you could imagine, it was 15 deep, Dad was busy. Vincent got changed and arrived in the Bar to get an Aussie draft beer, pulled by one of the best Beer Puller that ever lived, Dad. He took one look, jumped over the Bar and said to Dad... "Gerry, you look like you could use a ha d? I can pull a beer..." so Vincent Price stood next to Dad all night pulling beers for Sydney's most notorious criminals such as Arthur "Neddy" Smith and Corrupt cop Roger Rogerson. The Aquatic Club was also known as "The Green Door" made famous in a hit song by Shakin' Stevens. Smith and Rogerson were arrested and charged with the murder of a woman journalist in 1974, about the time my family moved to Graben Gullen, 36 miles from nowhere... for 6 months. I never did find out why... but the garden he was tending grew opium poppies. I remember clearly Dad showing me and calling them Opium... Crazy times...
"All cast died tragically." Incredibly stupid click-baity title. Adam West died after a bout with leukemia. He was well over eighty. Alan Napier was also quite on in years when he passed. Frank Gorshin died at 72, I think, and I'm surprised he lived as long as he did, considering he was a heavy smoker. Burgess Meredith was over eighty when he passed. Cesar Romero was a prolific character actor and passed on at 86. Burt Ward and Julie Newmar are still around. As for the actors playing Commissioner Gordon, and the rest, they were all quite advanced in years with the exception of Stafford Repp, who died in his mid-fifties. This kind of stupid 'reporting' is shoddy research at best. Nothing tragic at passing on in your eighties. That is the way of all things. I prefer to remember the show as it was and the actors as they were. I enjoyed the show as a kid many years back, and it's still fun to watch every now and then. But the memory is tarnished by idiotic video commentators who think they know everything when in fact, they know less than zero.
My favorite character was Robin,I was to young to even remember what age I was when I first saw batman,when I was 8 at Woolworths in Long Beach,Ca,about 3 miles from Cal Worthington Ford my mom bought me a Duncan batmobile,I still have it.
A few mistakes here. First off, from the title, Burt Ward and Julie Newmar are both still alive. Second, the usual computer voice reading mispronunciations of Bette Davis (it's pronounced Betty, not Bet), plus Man H instead of M.A.S.H., third, no mention at all of Carolyn Jones playing Morticia Addams on Addams Family, and finally, during the Mister Freeze segment, there were two shots of Otto Preminger playing the part, completely different actor from the one being discussed
What?! Julie and Burt are still around. Thus the statement “All cast died tragically” is false. Also, the photo on the right is not Burt compared to the photo on the left of Burt. This narrative voice seems to be everywhere.
Batman - to me what makes this series is the effortless energy of the actors having fun with the roles - taken lightly but not mockingly it was just pure fun - which shows through even today ( as dated as it may seem) imo 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Why, in the name of jeebus did they include recorded images of Neal Hamilton, a disgraced British politician from the 90s? AI is just wrong and weird 90% of the time.
Not all! Burt Ward, Julie Newmar, and Sean Astin are still alive! Burt Ward was Robin, Julie Newmar was Catwoman for Seasons 1 and 2, and Sean Astin was the Riddler for Season 2!
It seems as if this is not the correct video. The thumbnail implies that Bert Ward is dead when he isn't. Please try to upload the correct video where it states that Bert Ward is actually dead.

Best Joker period perfect for the role😎😎😎👍
Burgess Meredith set the standard of how a villain should be played. Not evil for the sake of being evil. He had a reason for being the was he he was
Lol no Jack Nicolson was the Best
Ceasar Romero is the original, so no one else can compare!

Vincent Price very talented
One glaring omission. Madge Blake was most famous for portraying the mother of Larry Mondello on the classic show. Leave it to Beaver.
I like Frank Gorshin who played the villainous RIDDLER. 😂😅
Along with John Astin. Al Yankovic would also be a shoo in as the next prince of puzzles. P.S., but ward lives
I loved Frank!!
@michaelclark4043 AGREE 👍, FRANK was Always thee BESTEST Riddler.., As well , a Supremely Talented & Cool guy✨️!!..~Peace, K🥀
The Original Cat Woman was my Childhood Crush.
Julie Newmar was 🔥!
She still is mine. She does answer fans on Facebook messenger if you say hi.
Which one?
Anne Hathaway was the best!
@@thomasnisen3214 Julie Newmar was the first live action Cat Woman.
Love !!! when The Green hornet premiered !!! 🧟♂️
I loved that series as a kid. I awaited each weeks new episode like it was chocolate cake! And I love chocolate cake!
I love the original Bat Man and its wonderful cast.
None of the more modern versions are as endearing.
You forgot Roddy Mcdowel as the "Bookworm"
Who.cares
Anne Baxter also starred in the TEN COMMANDMENTS.
They didn't all die!
Some not all
Burt Ward is still very much alive not like this click bait thumbnail
@@SharreIWright Well the announcer did not say that Mr. Ward had passed.

Maybe it is just a joke
Adam West & Madge (Aunt Harriot) both also acted in one individual episode of Bewitched in the year of 1964 or 1965!
These actors and actress, are unsung heroes.
I was (and still am) in love with Julie Newmar! The original and best Cat Woman!
What about The Bookworm played by Roddy McDowell
Adam west was also in family guy as the mare
Mayor West
Burt Ward had a mansion filled with dogs. He cared about animals.
Has he has a mansion he's still very much alive
Don't forget old B & W horror films Vincent was in, He did some bits with Alice Cooper, Black-widow song and cameo in Welcome to my nightmare video . He had that perfect voice.
He did a great job in Thriller. No mistaking the voice.

I wonder why, when describing C. Jones, Mortica Gomez wasn't brought up. I loved her in the role.
sandywheeze..I hear ya..Me too..!! ✌️😉
That last pic of Yvonne Craig is actually Vicki Lawrence.
George Sanders best Mr. Freeze. He took his own life.

All of the best actors on this show. Adam West worked hard to keep Batman alive. Keeton agrees!
The original was by far the best
60s Batman is not the original Batman so I don't know why you are saying that.

Wholely cat box I can’t say I loved them all . Didn’t the german film director Otto Preminger also play Mr freeze on Batman ?
Cliff Robertson won an oscar for Charly.
Ann Baxter and Vincent Price were both in the Ten Commandments. Both were excellent. Price did narration work on the Alice Cooper song "Black Widow"
Adam west did the voice on Family guy as Mayor west for years and did an awesome job!
One of my favourite series loved finishing one episode then waiting for the second so to see if the dynamic duo can get out of a villainous trap 😊😊😊
Eartha Kitt will be my favorite Catwoman ❤
Adam was the original and Heath ledger's joker
How Could You Forget The Infamous "Uncle Miltie" as Louie The Lilac?
Eartha Kitt came to my middle school years ago in Boston, Massachusetts

George Sanders was also in A Shot in the Dark (1964) alongside Peter Sellers and Elke Sommer.
1960s Batman is not the original so those of you who are saying this is the original Batman obviously dont know which Batman tv show is the original.
I remembered Bookworm
I crushed on Penguin❤❤
Burt Ward works with dogs for years
Caroline Jones also played Morticia Addams in tv series The Addams Family
Didn't watch the video but Burt Ward is the only cast member still alive.
Once or twice you’ve put in pics or clips of the wrong actor/actress.
Why are you showing footage of Neil Hamilton, former UK member of parliament?
As of 15 June 2024, Burt Ward (Robin) is very alive. So is John Astin.
The only cast that is still alive are Burt Ward, Julie Newmar, and Lee Meriwether
Ceasar Romero best Joker
So Burt Ward is the only person from that show alive wow
Love this show

Since Burt Ward isn't dead thumbs down.

By the way Mr. Universal Genius...Mr. West' Batman wasn't the first. There were several B&W movie instalments, YEARS earlier.

Bruce.wayne.the.only.one
Since wen did batman's gaffer become a tory mp x
In error, Otto Preminger is at least twice pictured as Mr. Freeze instead of George Sanders.
How did they all die tragically when most of them lived to the ages of 70 & 80 .
Boy wonder Burt rescues Great Danes and has line of very nutritious dog food Gentle Giant. Good man is Mr Ward.
Haha....included images of Neil Hamilton the British politician.
Loved it when the images of disgraced UK MP Neil Hamilton came up
Burt not dead!
Burt Ward is still very much alive this click bait shite shouldn't be allowed
Dying of lung cancer after decades of smoking is not tragic, it's inevitable. Cheers....
Would be even better if you made a video about people who have past away and not alot of made up bull
