No Doubt About The Joker Here In Spring
27 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
While this opener was being broadcast in January, the ratings for this series on ABC were hotter than spring. This one is too as the Joker springs himself out of prison to start a new crime wave. There is a lot of things going on a this series is rolling. Ceasar Romero is a great Joker, without a doubt.

First he visits the Comdians Hall of Fame to steal priceless jewels. These scripts are sharp as Bob Kane is already on the writing team. Bob would go on to write on several of the later Batman movies out of Hollywood and he has written on other series including Gotham. Kane has just started working on another series writing for episodes in 2017.

This one concludes with a disguised Joker on television singing opera, and then trapping Batman & Robin after they unmask him and threatens to unmask them. Stay tuned for tomorrow, same bat time, same bat channel.
