I saw Living in TV Land with Adam West last night. He was always a little odd, but I think in the last few years with Family guy and such, he has flipped his lid. If you get the chance, I suggest this show. It is surreal. It is like a reality show, kind of, but the whole thing is clearly scripted, and it seems that they aren’t trying to hide the fact that it is. Plus, it’s just odd. In it he has a fishing contest with this radio personality in a local pond in L.A. and if Adam West loses he has to wear the old Batman cowl for a picture. There is also a scene where he tries to fish in the pond in Julie Newmar’s backyard.
Freak. Still cool though.
