I just loved that crazy laugh of his.

Frank Gorshin, Ceasar Romero, Burgess Meridith.  Some great character actors on that show.

I am remembering a time a few months ago when I was at my in-laws and my nephews had no clue who Adam West was, to them Batman was Michael Keaton, George Clooney, Val Kilmer, and now Christian Bale.  My children saw the advertisment for Willie Wonka on TV and want to see it (why, I do not know..they are 3 and 4), so I got them the original and they say that's not it, it doesn't have "Edward Scissorsman" on it.  They can recognize actors but they don't seem to recognize me when I tell them to clean their messes up.

FYI, Frank Gorshin's last appearance is on CSI tonight.
