When I was a kid I couldn’t sleep for weeks after seeing the cliffhanger of batman in the plaster.

The actors playing the villains were having so much fun, you can see it in most every episode.

David Wayne, who played the Mad Hatter, was a delightful character actor on film and television for many years. Take a look at his hilarious "craven coward" scene in the Katharine Hepburn-Spencer Tracy classic "Adam's Rib", or his performance as the crusty doctor Amos Wetherby in the undeservedly forgotten television series "House Calls", with Lynn Redgrave and Wayne Rogers. His turn as the Mad Hatter wasn't even the last time he went up against a crimefighting hero: in 1975, he appeared as an evil psychiatrist in the television version of the Broadway musical "It's A Bird...It's A Plane..."It's Superman!" (the whole film of which is available online, and which co-starred Lesley Anne Warren, Kenneth Mars, Al Molinaro, and Loretta Swit). He disables Superman by convincing him that his heroic feats prove that he's a neurotic narcissist (a clever idea, much more interesting than Kryptonite). As several people have observed in this "Comments" section, he was clearly having a ball playing over-the-top characters.

Robin the gagged wonder😂

Some of the finest actors and comedians of cinema and stage showed up to guest on this. For the same reason they showed up on Batman. Once in awhile its just plain fun to camp it up, ham it up and play a tooth fairie, or Egghead, or a leprechaun or the Black Widow, etc. They did not need the money or the cred. They needed to have fun with the character!

2:03-2:20 - Such alliteration as Batman was first plastered! Great writers!

Robin tied up on a horse.

I would have liked to have seen the Mad Hatter in a couple more episodes of the Batman 60's series. I liked him as a villain. I thought he was underrated.

I wish there was a scene where the goons were tying up Robin.

"It's diabolical!"

i remember seeing this episode first time when i was a kid during its run on abc it was a two parter wed and thur night this was the cliff hanger batman got plastured i worried all night next day during school how batman would escape and out of the plaster casing

I think this was the only episode where you see Batman removing his cape and cowl. I was fascinated by the costume as a kid.

It turns out Batman does have a superpower? Super breath holding? Holy frogman!

3:14 Fifty Shades Of Grayson.

I may have gotten into the bath the night after watching this and lathered up my entire body so i looked like the plaster lol.

I also like the way so many people just stand by and watch villains try to steal the Batmobile

Robin on the horse !!!!!! HOLY HELPLESS BOYWONDER

fun fact about this specific Mad Hatter design, it's from a plot point in the silver age where someone was impersonating the real Mad Hatter. After he was revealed as such, they changed his name to Hatman. The reason he has the design of the fake Mad Hatter here is because this episode came before the plot twist. Honestly I really want them to bring back Hatman. Even if they mess him up completely, some other writer will see it and do it for themselves better.

The humor during the fight scene was priceless.

Robin🤐😂

This was the first episode of the Adam west batman i watched as a kid.

I love the way he says "Hat factory" at 2:19. I quote that more than any other line from this series.

Robin gets Mezmerised

Can you imagine how hot it would have been if they would have shown Robin being placed on the plaster horse. OMG

In 3d grade I missed how Batman got out of the plaster trap. I thought I was going to die

Robin was second only to Lois Lane in his genius for getting captured.

3:25 yeah yeah! he's freeing himself out the plaster!

Robin, old chum, what have I done?

It should have been Batgirl covered in plaster.

When I first saw this scene on tv as a kid, I was with a female baby sitter. I asked her to tie me up like Robin to see if I could get out... I was never the same.

He should have said, "two BATS with one stone!" writers fail...

"really one of the best fight in Batman 1966 indeed" The fight in the second part of this episode was one of the best of the entire series' run. It's also one of the longest. Batman, Robin, Mad Hatter and his men all get good shots in a long, desperate struggle at the Mad Hatter's hideout.

My favorite Batman villain.

Wow the low quality involved there is amazing

Holy FROGMAN!

Mad 🎩 is in Batman cartoon

LOL "Hold these."

@harriertalon I agree. And it would have been funnier -and hotter- if Mad Hatter's minions flogged Robin's little ass with a horse whip (giving that he's over a horse). Robin gagged was one of the best moments of this show... I wish they would have had more of Burt Ward bound and gagged, even as Robin or as Dick Grayson (wouldn't it have been great to have had a villain kidnap Dick, tie and gag him, without the mask?)

#ripadamwest #ripdavidwayne

Batman must of gotten under some SERIOUS training!!! Also,to me,it looks like Robin is riding the horse.

really one of the best fight in Batman 1966 indeed

"batman!" "Robin!" (/;U;)/ cuties i cant!

they tied robin to a horse

Hoje eu nao teria mais paciencia para ver esses seriados,nao!

@blenheim7 and the scene ends with The mad Hatter saying" Cappy hand me my camera' now Batman Or should i say "bruce Wayne now you are going to sit for a photography so the whole world can see who you really are" His henchman hands the camera to the mad hatter who says "The is the end of the caped crusaders" and the end of thier Crime fighting in gothom city boss" says the henchman as the mad hatter snaps the picture.Batman looks defeated as robin says"holy secret identity revealed"

love it

HOLY FROGMAN! *megaman theme plays*

Holy batbreath!

Why did they tie Robins ankles under the horse? That makes it extra kinky.

3:16

To bad they didn't show Robin being tied to the plaster horse. That would have been "HOT" !!!!!!

Just once i would have loved to have seen the mad hatter nail batman with his hat mesmorizer

Oh stop teasing me..HA!

❤❤❤❤❤

This mad hatter is boring. I like the version when the mad hatter was an Alice in wonderland character instead of just a mind control villain.

Robin smells a rat!

I'm loving these clips. I grew up watching this. Silly though it is.

3:15 thats why batman became the dark knight

When they tied Robin to the horse , that was fine they did it to keep him out of the way. I just don`t think they needed to put that muzzle gag over his mouth

That was the best part. Poor Muzzled Robin. To bad they didn't show the bad guys securing Robin to the horse. That would have been "HOT"

The Mad Hatter was very appalling and scary in the Batman TV Series. I hated him very much especially his gaudy moustache.

Mad hatter wants all hats so he wants batman,s cowl or mask

i held.my breath . wow.

robin got pwnd!!!!!

One of the best fight in Batman 1966

"Great job!"

ITS ADAM WEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSST. someones moaning, oh yeah

The video is shaky

Oh, yeah, that's right - I'd forgotten about that.

I wanted to omit Dozier's captions and narration to make it look like it was all from the same episode. I've been remixing the cliffhangers in this fashion because some people would rather just watch the capture and escape in "one fell swoop".

I held my breath...WHAT?!?!

Batman and Robin are terrible superheroes in this series they’ve been taken advantage and getting themselves captured just like every other character on this show every Episode

2:39 was the start of the cliffhanger ending in the original... why is it missing?

I thought the mad hatter from Alice in wonderland is a special guest.

i read a comment below saying you have the whole series so i need to know, where did you buy it, i can't find it anywhere, hell i can't even find a single episode!

Those aren't the voices

i thought this would've been in reference to the kiss song.

nice one an im sure at end i heard yahoo messenger someone going off line:P i noticed lol.

I hear the yahoo logout noise door 4:30!

holy jewish banker batman

The Mad Hatter in the Batman The Animated Series was more evil and much smarter than the one in campy TV show.

Who was the actor playing " The Mad Hatter?"

Robin was scripted as a complete incompetent wuss in this series. Granted as young as the character was supposed to be he shouldn't have been Batman's equal but he shouldn't get underfoot and need help every 5 seconds

does any one wish it was the alice in wonder land themed hatter if so would make it more awsome :) david wayne was awsome as jervis teitch

@jabuzcool hi or a villain kidnap Dick and ask for 1,2000000000000 dollar or you will never seen him again then what would batman doo with out his parner and his friend.

where can i watch the full episode for free

why in hell is Robin tied like that?

6duridot

Is this the same Plaster Caster who visited Jimi Hendrix backstage one night?

holy frogman... yep, defiantely the original robin because he was the only robin to ever make such comments. there was another robin that laughed, was that tim?

Did they ever use 2face in this

Uns diálogos idiotas ..

Lol i look hilarious on that horse

When Batman got plastered, I cried like a little bit--.
