I see where they took time to get into their *jammies* on way to the Bat-Cave. Lyle Waggoner was lame on the Carol Burnette show too.

He was great, simply fantastic, on "Wonder Woman."

Yeah, it is a bit hard to beat Adam West and Burt Ward (I think) in those roles. Waggoner is a bit of a stiff. West has a sense of humor and groovy wit that fit the mid to late 60's very well.

Yeah, but let's face it; he was dumb. Even I noticed that Wonder Woman looked a LOT like Diana Prince.

And they both looked great...! :D

And what is so terrible that Bruce and Dick were doing on those "supposed fishing trips" of theirs that would be so bad that it would kill Mrs. Cooper? :D
