Sammy Davis Jr. Chats Up Batman & Robin

This is a really cool clip. It's a cameo done by Sammy Davis Jr. on the campy 1960's series Batman. Check it out!

Glenn Bishop "Bish The Magish" said...: That was a cool clip. One of the cool parts of the show was the person that came out of the window while Batman and Robin were climbing the wall.

What a great gag and thanks for the link.

Keith said...: Hey Glenn. I always loved that on the show. You never knew who was going to open the window. Recently I saw a special about the show. It reminded me about this. I had to find the clip of Sammy. Glad you enjoyed it.; September 22, 2008 at 9:51 AM

Keith said...: Hey pallie DMP. Glad you enjoyed the clip even if you aren't a fan of Batman. I thought it was a cool clip. It would have been awesome if Dino had done of these cameos. I would have loved it if he had been in that room with Sammy.; September 22, 2008 at 11:15 AM
Nancy Sinatra Fan said...: I love this. I've seen it before, but I never tire of it. I would love to have gone in there to chill with Sammy for awhile.; September 22, 2008 at 12:29 PM
Keith said...: Glad you liked it. I think it's really cool. I would be hanging out with Sammy myself. Have some drinks and listen to him sing us some tunes.; September 22, 2008 at 12:34 PM
Nostalgia Kinky said...: Love Sammy's work as an actor. A MAN CALLED ADAM is brilliant and his spot on THE MOD SQUAD as the hip Ghetto priest is an all time favorite.; September 25, 2008 at 1:55 PM
Keith said...: Hey Jeremy. I agree with you. I always loved seeing Sammy on tv or in movies. I will always love his appearance on All in the Family. That was priceless.; September 25, 2008 at 1:58 PM
sushay said...: I loved Batman and Robin. I used to watch the reruns everyday. The window thing was always fun!; September 27, 2008 at 8:13 PM
Keith said...: Hey Sue. I always loved this show. I still watch it. I did always love seeing who would open the window next.; September 27, 2008 at 8:55 PM
Unknown said...: THIS must be why I love SAMMY so much ...

Subliminally it must have gone back to my youth and the days of watching BATMAN as a kid.; October 1, 2008 at 11:17 AM
Keith said...: Hey Anthony. I never thought about it that way. Very cool idea. Yeah, I loved this show. I also would hear Sammy's records at my grandmother's house. It was awesome to actually see him on one of my favorite shows.; October 1, 2008 at 11:29 AM
James Jean said...: That's funny. I obviously wasn't old enough to experience that show in it's original run (I'm 25 y/o) but I saw a few in repeats back in the 90's. Man do I miss that. Hopefully it's on DVD somewhere....; July 13, 2009 at 10:48 PM
Keith said...: I was born in 1970. I saw the show in reruns as a kid. I still watch it today. I actually don't think the show's been put on DVD for some reason. The movie they did between the first two seasons is on DVD though.; July 13, 2009 at 10:52 PM
