David Wayne, who played the Mad Hatter, was a delightful character actor on film and television for many years. Take a look at his hilarious "craven coward" scene in the Katharine Hepburn-Spencer Tracy classic "Adam's Rib", or his performance as the crusty doctor Amos Wetherby in the undeservedly forgotten television series "House Calls", with Lynn Redgrave and Wayne Rogers. His turn as the Mad Hatter wasn't even the last time he went up against a crimefighting hero: in 1975, he appeared as an evil psychiatrist in the television version of the Broadway musical "It's A Bird...It's A Plane..."It's Superman!" (the whole film of which is available online, and which co-starred Lesley Anne Warren, Kenneth Mars, Al Molinaro, and Loretta Swit). He disables Superman by convincing him that his heroic feats prove that he's a neurotic narcissist (a clever idea, much more interesting than Kryptonite). As several people have observed in this "Comments" section, he was clearly having a ball playing over-the-top characters.
Some of the finest actors and comedians of cinema and stage showed up to guest on this. For the same reason they showed up on Batman. Once in awhile its just plain fun to camp it up, ham it up and play a tooth fairie, or Egghead, or a leprechaun or the Black Widow, etc. They did not need the money or the cred. They needed to have fun with the character!
i remember seeing this episode first time when i was a kid during its run on abc it was a two parter wed and thur night this was the cliff hanger batman got plastured i worried all night next day during school how batman would escape and out of the plaster casing
I would have liked to have seen the Mad Hatter in a couple more episodes of the Batman 60's series. I liked him as a villain. I thought he was underrated.
When I first saw this scene on tv as a kid, I was with a female baby sitter. I asked her to tie me up like Robin to see if I could get out... I was never the same.
fun fact about this specific Mad Hatter design, it's from a plot point in the silver age where someone was impersonating the real Mad Hatter. After he was revealed as such, they changed his name to Hatman. The reason he has the design of the fake Mad Hatter here is because this episode came before the plot twist. Honestly I really want them to bring back Hatman. Even if they mess him up completely, some other writer will see it and do it for themselves better.
holy homoerotica! I totally agree!.. think about it, picking him up, each one, each "bad guy", grabbing a leg and spreading it wide on each side of the horse, then tying his wrists together and gagging him and well as robin is trying to get loose, it looks like he is LITERALLY humping that plaster horse! a quick shot of the back would show his short yellow cape riding up and seeing his ass in those green trunks as he is trying to get loose, a quick side profile shot of him trying to get loose would also look like he is humping himself on that horse! One has to wonder why would a horse statue be there in the first place? someone who thought this scene up must have had "impure thoughts"! laugh!
"really one of the best fight in Batman 1966 indeed" The fight in the second part of this episode was one of the best of the entire series' run. It's also one of the longest. Batman, Robin, Mad Hatter and his men all get good shots in a long, desperate struggle at the Mad Hatter's hideout.
Not really...a bat and a robin are references to animals that fly even though a bat, scientifically, isn't considered a part of the bird species if one is to be technical...but the line is for humorous effect anyway...not to be taken seriously.
@blenheim7 and the scene ends with The mad Hatter saying" Cappy hand me my camera' now Batman Or should i say "bruce Wayne now you are going to sit for a photography so the whole world can see who you really are" His henchman hands the camera to the mad hatter who says "The is the end of the caped crusaders" and the end of thier Crime fighting in gothom city boss" says the henchman as the mad hatter snaps the picture.Batman looks defeated as robin says"holy secret identity revealed"
@harriertalon I agree. And it would have been funnier -and hotter- if Mad Hatter's minions flogged Robin's little ass with a horse whip (giving that he's over a horse). Robin gagged was one of the best moments of this show... I wish they would have had more of Burt Ward bound and gagged, even as Robin or as Dick Grayson (wouldn't it have been great to have had a villain kidnap Dick, tie and gag him, without the mask?)
When they tied Robin to the horse , that was fine they did it to keep him out of the way. I just don`t think they needed to put that muzzle gag over his mouth
I wanted to omit Dozier's captions and narration to make it look like it was all from the same episode. I've been remixing the cliffhangers in this fashion because some people would rather just watch the capture and escape in "one fell swoop".
i read a comment below saying you have the whole series so i need to know, where did you buy it, i can't find it anywhere, hell i can't even find a single episode!
Batman and Robin are terrible superheroes in this series they’ve been taken advantage and getting themselves captured just like every other character on this show every Episode
@jabuzcool hi or a villain kidnap Dick and ask for 1,2000000000000 dollar or you will never seen him again then what would batman doo with out his parner and his friend.
Robin was scripted as a complete incompetent wuss in this series. Granted as young as the character was supposed to be he shouldn't have been Batman's equal but he shouldn't get underfoot and need help every 5 seconds
holy frogman... yep, defiantely the original robin because he was the only robin to ever make such comments. there was another robin that laughed, was that tim?
The actors playing the villains were having so much fun, you can see it in most every episode.
Great show! Now if I can get my wife to play Batman and Catwoman and tie me up!
@@chrissteele1362 cringe
When I was a kid I couldn’t sleep for weeks after seeing the cliffhanger of batman in the plaster.
When I was a kid , we watched Batman every week.

My favorite line , " My hat Factoreh."
( Factory)
He played Digger Barnes on Dallas. He also played the killer in the American remake of M.
I recently watched him in an episode of the TV show Night gallery.
Robin tied up on a horse.
Robin the gagged wonder😂
There was no reason for that gag over his mouth, totally humiliating Robin!!

2:03-2:20 - Such alliteration as Batman was first plastered! Great writers!
I would have liked to have seen the Mad Hatter in a couple more episodes of the Batman 60's series. I liked him as a villain. I thought he was underrated.
David Wayne definitely had that unctuous tone that made the role come alive.
I think this was the only episode where you see Batman removing his cape and cowl. I was fascinated by the costume as a kid.
That would be the Contaminated Cowl.
That's the season 2 two-part episode, the Mad Hatter's second appearance on the show.
It turns out Batman does have a superpower? Super breath holding? Holy frogman!
I also like the way so many people just stand by and watch villains try to steal the Batmobile
When I first saw this scene on tv as a kid, I was with a female baby sitter. I asked her to tie me up like Robin to see if I could get out... I was never the same.
What happened?
A mí me pasó igual?
The humor during the fight scene was priceless.
I may have gotten into the bath the night after watching this and lathered up my entire body so i looked like the plaster lol.
"It's diabolical!"

This was the first episode of the Adam west batman i watched as a kid.
3:14 Fifty Shades Of Grayson.
...with a little Equus thrown in
I love the way he says "Hat factory" at 2:19. I quote that more than any other line from this series.
He's Norwegian.
Can you imagine how hot it would have been if they would have shown Robin being placed on the plaster horse. OMG

Yes and trying to Moan through his tricky Bat Gagg. Mmmmmmppphhh
@@bogenbrunsson2141catwomen had the best traps for robin
In 3d grade I missed how Batman got out of the plaster trap. I thought I was going to die
Robin gets Mezmerised
Robin on the horse !!!!!! HOLY HELPLESS BOYWONDER
Robin, old chum, what have I done?
I wish there was a scene where the goons were tying up Robin.
It should have been Batgirl covered in plaster.
"really one of the best fight in Batman 1966 indeed"
The fight in the second part of this episode was one of the best of the entire series' run. It's also one of the longest.
Batman, Robin, Mad Hatter and his men all get good shots in a long, desperate struggle at the Mad Hatter's hideout.
Not to mention the fight on the tower, in which remarkably, no one fell off.
3:25 yeah yeah! he's freeing himself out the plaster!
Robin was second only to Lois Lane in his genius for getting captured.
Adam needs a book biography.
He should have said, "two BATS with one stone!" writers fail...
Not really...a bat and a robin are references to animals that fly even though a bat, scientifically, isn't considered a part of the bird species if one is to be technical...but the line is for humorous effect anyway...not to be taken seriously.
@@ACcountryFan 'It's coming alive!!' You forgot to take his utility belt, you moron!! Batman outsmarted you again!!
Why did they tie Robins ankles under the horse? That makes it extra kinky.
There is something sexy about it, don't know why, but it raises the kink level.
So he wouldn't kick them.
For years I have always found Robin to be extremely sexy.
They could get to his lil. Pantyhose feet and should have slipped his pixie boots off.... So cute Mmmm
When Batman got plastered, I cried like a little bit--.
When Robin wasn't plastered I cried a little bit
@@willg4802 they should have been plastered together since they were often placed in death traps together. 😄
@@earlmartin1030 exactly, they should have dragged Robin over, mixed up another batch of the plaster, then splat, covered him.
@@willg4802 The Joker did do that when he turned them both into surfboards. 😄
@@earlmartin1030 yeahhhhh that was hot. I wish someone would encase me ... In cement.
"Anti mesmerizing bat reflector," aka a broken piece of mirror.
Batman must of gotten under some SERIOUS training!!! Also,to me,it looks like Robin is riding the horse.
Wow the low quality involved there is amazing
LOL "Hold these."
Mad 🎩 is in Batman cartoon

"batman!" "Robin!" (/;U;)/ cuties i cant!
they tied robin to a horse
A mí me amarraron a una cama de pies y manos y me amordazaron
Hoje eu nao teria mais paciencia para ver esses seriados,nao!
really one of the best fight in Batman 1966 indeed
1:38 holy ricochet.
HOLY FROGMAN! *megaman theme plays*
Lol i look hilarious on that horse
Holy batbreath!
This mad hatter is boring. I like the version when the mad hatter was an Alice in wonderland character instead of just a mind control villain.
Just once i would have loved to have seen the mad hatter nail batman with his hat mesmorizer
I feel the same way. I always wanted to see Batman take the Mad Hatters hat mesmorizer
I think he should have plastered Robin, and kept them both just like t hat
Holy FROGMAN!
When they tied Robin to the horse , that was fine they did it to keep him out of the way. I just don`t think they needed to put that muzzle gag over his mouth
To bad they didn't show Robin being tied to the plaster horse. That would have been "HOT" !!!!!!
They probs didn't show it so parents didn't make complaints of their daughters going wild...
Maybe director and crew did it to see their own personal episodes XDDD
I think robin likes gets beat up. Might turn him on.
That was the best part. Poor Muzzled Robin. To bad they didn't show the bad guys securing Robin to the horse. That would have been "HOT"
#ripadamwest #ripdavidwayne
3:15 thats why batman became the dark knight
Mad hatter wants all hats so he wants batman,s cowl or mask
Actually,he was after the Twelve Jurors and Batman,who put him in prison.....
why in hell is Robin tied like that?
pony derpy The better question is, Why is Robin ever NOT tied like that? :-)
At :19, "Someone's moaning!" Isn't Robin the one who's usually moaning when he's alone w/Batman?
I know, he should have been plastered too
They tied him up to keep in out of the way while they did their dirty deed to Batman . I saw no reason for that muzzle gag over his mouth . Very rude
Which kinky villain thought of tying Robin to a horse statue ?. Why?.
Oh stop teasing me..HA!
Robin smells a rat!
2:39 was the start of the cliffhanger ending in the original... why is it missing?
I'm loving these clips. I grew up watching this. Silly though it is.
❤️ Jean hale
Who was the actor playing " The Mad Hatter?"

❤❤❤❤❤
Is this the same Plaster Caster who visited Jimi Hendrix backstage one night?
The Mad Hatter in the Batman The Animated Series was more evil and much smarter than the one in campy TV show.
Oh, yeah, that's right - I'd forgotten about that.
Batman and Robin are terrible superheroes in this series they’ve been taken advantage and getting themselves captured just like every other character on this show every Episode
ITS ADAM WEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSST. someones moaning, oh yeah
Did they ever use 2face in this
The Mad Hatter was very appalling and scary in the Batman TV Series. I hated him very much especially his gaudy moustache.
robin got pwnd!!!!!
i held.my breath . wow.
where can i watch the full episode for free
madesyn fandom The internet probably
madesyn fandom They're all on putlocker
"Great job!"
One of the best fight in Batman 1966
I held my breath...WHAT?!?!
I thought the mad hatter from Alice in wonderland is a special guest.
i thought this would've been in reference to the kiss song.
@jabuzcool hi or a villain kidnap Dick and ask for 1,2000000000000 dollar or you will never seen him again then what would batman doo with out his parner and his friend.
