He&#39;s right, Metro.
There was one done in the forties, I believe.
A bit like the old Superman episodes.

Actually that is not true. The original Adam West Batman series was first aired in Black and White in some early episodes in the 60&#39;s.

I&#39;m sure i&#39;ve seen one over here in the UK, was a Batman where Alfred drove Bats to the scene in the Limo/ye olde car comparible to a limo at the time (in Black and White, fourties setting and style). Seemed sorta corny, but was def from that period. I&#39;ll have a looky at that link i think.

The Batman series in the 40&#39;s were serials. Short movies played at theaters. The precursors to weekly TV shows.

TV wasn&#39;t even widely available until the 50&#39;s. Early TV shows(especially in the 40s) were mostly made up of former vaudeville acts.

I&#39;m sorry I was referring to TV specifically. Unless you were a regular theatre go-er back then - you never saw that series. :huh: <_<
