I write things that explain other things for USA TODAY NETWORK Florida. I also take pictures, mostly for me. My opinions are my own and I only agree with about half of them. He/him.
Here we go.

So they reworked them, made themselves into a musical duo that fought crime, and did an album anyway.

It is seriously deeply weird and manages to out camp the Batman show.

Had this as a kid. Might still, for that matter.

Jan & Dean got the ok to cover the Batman TV show theme and wrote some original songs for a funny concept album starring Batman and Robin.

Then DC said they couldn’t use the characters. But they’d already done the songs.

I recommend a track from “Jan and Dean Meet Batman” (1966).

So add a disclaimer. And leave prices off if you want.

But even restaurants that have only one location do this.

It was a little sad seeing Jim Bachus’ advancing Parkinson’s disease, but he was also one of the sharpest people there, so.

I’d forgotten the amazing level of cheerful sexual harassment on this show.

I did get him worked up once by scratching him vigorously the length of his body while yelling, “Such an INteresting monster, too. My stars, if an INteresting monster can’t have an INteresting hairdo I don’t know WHAT this world is coming to! (bobby pins, please.)”
