OMG on steroids.
The Penguin, thanks to some fine print loophole
in the election book of roles, can actually run for mayor of Gotham City??? Naturally, to throw a wrench into his plans, current Mayor Linseed (Byron Keith) asks Batman to enter the race. And let the dirty poltics begin!
Burgess Meredith, as the Penguin, is having a blast here. He really gets into his role, and has some of the best lines.
A camp episode, and featuring legendary 60s rock group PAUL REVERE AND THE RAIDERS, changing their name to "The Ruders". Paul Revere at the time had a big hit on the charts, "Kicks" which peaked at No. 4 on the charts, followed by "Hungry."
Popular character actor Woodrow Parfrey plays Rooper. Parfrey was a staple in tv shows, usually turning up as a real shifty guy. Well written by Stanford Sherman, who wrote 18 classic episodes for the series, and this is one of them.
Does not get any better than this, and watch for the colors! Beautifully restored, from SEASON 2 EPISODE 17 remastered dvd box set.
