I am the jerk JUST about to Note Troll you for my FIVE FIX! Blammo! There it was.💥🙏🏻 I am positively SLEEPLESS for your Penguin Pod! Have not watched this week yet, but terrified to see what they do with Sofia. I think she and Oswald are already in a battle of betrayals. Who is playing who and who is already one step ahead? You underestimate Sofia at your own peril. And Victor??? I can’t wait to see more of his story. Yeah-there’s something very smart and careful about how they are shaping this show. Nom! Nom! Nom!

"It’s the unintentional comedy factor, folks. This show is rich in it." That's what happens when you have heavily made-up villains camping it up and Batman playing straight man to them.

Actually, the show was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series in its first year!

I had no idea! That's crazy.

The Emmys seemed to like offbeat comedy ideas in those days- "Get Smart" was a regular presence during its run, and "The Monkees" actually won Outstanding Comedy Series (along with Directing for a Comedy Series) over "Batman". (Plus, "The Flintstones" got nominated after its first season in 1961).

Oh, X-Men Origins: Wolverine is TERRIBLE. To me, the worst of a franchise with considerable lowlights. My favorite bit is when Col. Stryker hypes up Wolverine to a bunch of generals who signed off on the experiment. He gets loose literally five minutes later, and Stryker's like, we have to kill him! And one of the generals rolls his eyes and is just like, We just spent half a billion dollars making him UNKILLABLE!
