- Dr. Cassandra shoots Batman, Robin and Batgirl with the Alvino Ray Gun, which robs them of their third dimension and leaves them as living flat human cutouts. A silly battrap, sure, but one that appeals to me.
With the way Yvone Craig was built, her line about becoming flat and Howard Keel's line about it being a pity was a nice bit of adult humor thrown into a kid's show
Howard Duff
I was about to say. That wasn't Clayton farlow lol
Loved the dialogue in this scene. Batman:"Wh-wh-what are you d-d-doing to our b-b-bodies?" Robin:"Holy helplessness!" Batgirl:"I feel like I'm getting flat!" Batgirl was the only one who realized what was happening, which was no doubt the reason for the horrified tone of her voice when she talked.
I once heard on a radio interview that the gag was actually called the Ronald Raygun (Reagan) but the script writer chickened out...
Three dimensional Bat restorer...🤣🤣🤣
Why wouldn't Batman have such a Device?
This is my all time favorite episode with Batgirl. I have always loved her helpless jiggle.
My favorite third season episodes
I like joan Collins episodes with season three also with king tut and bruce Wayne
4:00 Smart thinking Alferd take your departure before Batgirl recognize you and then she accidently connect the dots to Batman's&Robin's secret identity and figure out they are Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson. There is one episode where Batman's&Robin's crime fighting days was almost finishing where Tut was mining the mines and it lead him down to the Batcave and secret identity of Batman and Robin since the Batcave right under Wayne Manor. If that Cave in didn't happened and cause Tut to turn back into the universe professor their crime fighting would been done for.
Too bad Julie Newmar never went up against the gun in her Catwoman costume.
Batman: " Nooooo Class"
Lmao every time at that line!
Actually, it's "Noooo Style".
I wish they could have left the trio flattened for a while longer -I would have liked to have had Robin's flattened body hanging on my wall....
Three-Dimensional Bat Restorer? What the hell were the writers on
The 1960s = LSD
Howard Keel and Ida Lupino as guest villains. Ha-ha-ha! Camp stuff!
The villains should use the flattened trio as trophies .....
I agree
Caped crusader Dart board
They Created the very first Batman Standee.
Holy Helplessness batman!
Alvino Rey used to be a guitar player now he's a gun.

It was originally supposed to be called the Ronald Ray-gun after Ronald Reagan who was still acting and 18 years from becoming President.
If those life sized cutouts were available to get as souvenirs I SO would have ordered them! Haha!
They had to find someway to get Batgirl into the Batcave:)
Don't you just love how confident Batman and Batgirl are at 0:11 (Batman:I'm glad to have you flanking us, Batgirl." Batgirl:"I wouldn't miss it for anything!") and how newvous they are at 0:50 as they, along with Robin, are flattened by Dr. Cassandra's alvino ray gun (Batman:"What-are you d-d-doing to out b-b-bodies?!" Batgirl:"I feel like I'm getting-flat!")? The expressions on their faces as they are being flattened is priceless.
nice analyse
I remember being attracted to Batgirl as a child, It's always bothered me that she wasn't in more episodes
@Ben Jerry there was just something about seeing her with red hair, it wasn't until I got older that I discovered why 😍
@Ben Jerry one of the many reasons why I love it
@Ben Jerry But it was meant to be a children's TV show
She was introduced in the third season. She was actually supposed to replace Robin and be Batman's love interest to de-gay the franchise.
Which is all pretty funny in hindsight.
Batgirl poster is mine.
yeah they were crazy to hand them back. If I were the villain I would have kept them flat in my lair! Wish I was Robin or Batman flat next to Batgirl.....
I'm no doctor, but it seems to me to be about 1000 reasons why this is the most ridiculous "peril" they're ever been in. Its not even remotely in any frame of reality.
It would have been a great storyline if the trio were stuck in their flat state for several episodes as the villains took centre stage.....
"Either you come out THREE-dimensional, or...NO-dimensional!"
What if they'd come out... FOUR-dimensional?!
@@tomkerruish2982 Fifty-two-dimensional.
But seriously, I kinda wished they'd said "either you come out as one universe or...no universe" during Crisis on Infinite Earths.
Give the show to Disney, they'll come out one dimensional.
It would have been cool to have the trio used as hatstands in their frozen state...
@HypnoticPhantom Ida Lupino was married to Howard Duff not Keel. Howard Keel played Clayton Farlow in Dallas, and he also played Wild Bill Hickock in the comedy "Calamity Jane" with Doris Day. Keel was a terrific singer. There certainly was some "mature" humor in this show like you say! lol
be a great way to save on travel costs - just get zapped flat and mailed to your destination. Then again - you'd have to make sure you could be turned back into 3D!
how exactly was alfred disguised as a doddering fool? lol.
I mean, he's an ex-spy in canon, so...
my IQ just dropped 10 points...
Seriously!!!
Look up Alvino Rey, the musician. It's a pretty interesting story.
How stupid to just stand there!
This happened in a popular live-action Batman show? It would seem more like something that would only happen to Batman in The Brave and the Bold.
The show had pretty much succumbed to cartoonish humour by then. This was the second-last episode of the series.
The Joker, Riddler, Penguin, King Tut, Egghead, and Catwoman all briefly appeared in this episode. Sadly they were all played by Doubles instead of the usual Actors.
If Batgirl had noticed those batpoles in the Batcave,she would want to know where they go up to.
Batgirl would have given me a Batpole back in 1966.
Yeah if I were the villain i would have just kept them as flattened trophies and not mailed them back to get help....
Yeah - why didn't they just leave the trio trapped as cardboard cut-outs in their hideout rather than mail them to the commisioner?
12 years later : Criminals like to brag about their crimes, share them with the whole world. It's often their undoing.
I like Batgirl flattened.
Didn't Batman have something in his utility belt to stop them from getting flat?
At the end of the episode he does add a Device called an Alvino Ray Dissolver to his Utility Belt.
Dananananananana Flatman!
one of the few times the show did not make O;hare seem like a dim wit
Tiresome Trio .. Funny how the villains had these nicknames Fir The Terrific Trio !!
What's funny for me is Dick and Barbara will both be off on their own as we go intot he 70s.
The 80s will have Dick lead the Titans in more serious stories, which actually save DC. And Barbara, um, you know? You really shouldn't know too much about your future. Oh, but she does lead a government strike force of supervillains.
My favorite third season episode
Wuts the chance of them having a three dimensital bat restorer apperantly a big one
On This Show?
One Hundred Percent.
I wonder if the trio were aware of anything while they were flattened?
I don't think the writers were on anything! They had to write in a way to restore the dynamic trio, otherwise the fans would've been highly disappointed. Since the Batcave is suppose to be the last word and since this is not suppose to be taken seriously hence the comedy, the three-dimensional bat restorer was one of the very things they thought of.
Be good to have the Alvino Ray Gun for real....;)
my great uncle is alvino rey
Really
That lady is his ex wife
She had a great Hollywood career
never tangle with a married couple
I love your videos
Alfred saves the day ….again
Ida Lupino was a good choice for a Villainess in this episode.
She was also a Talented Director as well as an Actress.
Its a good thing Alfred used the Bat restorer to save the terrific trio. Only time Batgirl was in the Batcave.
anyone think how ironic it was when chief o hara holds robin and batgirls backs saying i cant belive me eyes commisioner but i must belive what i feel and i feel there pulse especially with that ironic music plus on a side note commisioner gordon has no idea batgirl is his daughter.
Batman tiene un bulto exacto para mis manos y mi boca ❤
Holy standees!
I hope to meet Dr casandra
the best batman episode ever. my personal favorite
My favorite third season, i like the pretty woman episodes like kathy kersh,Kershaw, was beyond gorgeous with the joker , , Linda Scott gray with the riddler, sexy outfit) super pretty
❤️ Green hornet episodes;; kathy kersh; Linda scott; denna lund episodes; Mr Freeze episodes Otto premingle
Dr. Cassandra and Kabala should have Taken The flattened heroes with them. Used them as Human dart boards or whatever else they could think of.
+scooter167 It was great that Dr. Cassandra & Kabala weren't smart enough to take Batman,Robin & Batgirl with them for their own pleasure after the terrific trio were flattened. If they did,their evil plans wouldn't have been foiled.
Batman’s villains loved intimidation and gloating, like all good storybook villains.
sounds nice
batman smells
Robin laid an egg
...the Batmobile, It loosed a wheel..
..the Joker gets away....
Wasn't the Adam West Batman created in the 60s? I think that should give you a hint as to what they were on.
That gun to make me completely Nylon and I love to be helpless to Nylon begging to be that way forever Nylon rules forever above God helplessness I love to be to Nylon
was Batman a comedy at first? :D what the hell...
I feel like I’m getting flat. Batman says what a pity lol
Fun ep. The jeweler BTW originally suggests Dr. Cassandra and her sidekick shop or leave.
He had a Good Instinct about Those Two.
The Voice helped out a lot.
I would love me to be nylon
AL MCBURNEY.
Is that Agnes Moorehead?
Ida Lupino
www.oocities.org/area51/Chamber/2517/arg/alvinoraygun2009.html The Alvino Ray Gun Batgirl and the boys were subjected to by Dr. Cassandra was going to be called the "Ronald Ray Gun," until the censors objected to naming a weapon after the Governor of California! So, instead, the gun was named after American swing era musician Alvin McBurney, better known by his stage name of Alvino Rey.
web.archive.org/web/20091026210024/www.geocities.com/twof1/alvinoraygunanaly.html My all-time favorite Batgirl-in-peril episode is a true groundbreaker, The Entrancing Dr. Cassandra. Like the previous analyst, I'm a huge fan of the Alvino Ray Gun peril, but there are certain points that weren’t touched upon before. I'd like to overview them now.
In essence, the three heroes are transformed into "living standees," cardboard cut-outs of themselves in their patented posed stances. This adds a mocking humiliation to their defeat. Curiously, in the original syndication kit synopsis of this episode, the heroes are zapped after Cassandra throws stolen jewels at their feet, causing them to slip and fall. At some point, someone decided it would be funnier (and less awkward to stage) if the Terrific Trio would be flattened standing in their familiar heroic poses. For Batgirl, of course, that means the adorable fists-on-hips power stance she instinctively slips into at every opportunity. I'd love to check out the original shooting script on this point [if anyone has one, please let me (and twof! ;>) know!] Perhaps it was the episode's director, Sam Strangis, who made the switch during filming.
Deliberate camp or just an accident? As many of us maintain, there were at least two different costumes worn by Yvonne at this stage of the show's production. Amusingly, she's wearing the more purple, shorter-eared version when she is pre-zapped, and the more blueish, longer-eared version AFTER her Alvino-ization! Since she's standing in the same position (almost; her legs are farther apart after the flattening), the difference between these costumes is noticeable. Yvonne was probably photographed "as a standee" on a different day of shooting, and no one thought to match the outfits . . . or, for that matter, the way Batgirl's hair falls (behind her shoulders in pre-zapped mode; in front after the transformation.) Unless, of course, this was done for deliberate camp value. Either way, Yvonne never looked more scrumptious . . . especially since the actress added just the right look of wide-eyed surprise to her patented power stance.
Batgirl gets punched-out?! It was against TV rules at the time for a female to be punched by a male - an open-handed slap was the limit.* Everything apparently changed, however, if the woman's opponent was invisible, and actual contact wasn't depicted. That's how Batgirl was able to get slugged in the face a couple of times during the climax of this episode. Yvonne [and her stunt double (Was one used in this scene? - twof)] simply threw their heads back as they were "hit," then fell onto the floor. This was the only time in the series that Batgirl was ever punched, and probably by a male opponent (Catwoman's part of this pummeling party, but she's more of a scratcher than a puncher). Was it the Joker who walloped Batgirl? Or Egghead? Maybe King Tut? The mind boggles . . .
Terrence Clay I thought Yvonne refused to have a stunt double (except for the male one in the 'A Horse of Another Color' climax). Did she agree about having one near the end of the series?
Or her refusing to have a stunt double was just a lie?
