Daddy, Did Julie Newmar Marry Adam West?

As always - The Cast of Characters

Me (The Daddy)
The Bean: Age 7
The Butterfly: Age 6
The Darling Wife
The Buffett Puppy


Guest Starring: The Boyfriend


One of the first things the girls noticed about Australia is they only have 4 television stations.  This made them homesick.


Where was Dora the Explora? Where were Max and Ruby?  Where was Lazytown?  Where were the Wiggles?


Actually, the Wiggles were there.


So through the wonders of YouTube, The Bean and The Butterfly were introduced to Batman.  Not the tough, new gravelly-voiced Dark Knight.  No, the 1960's camp-tastic Caped Crusader.


Holy Spandex, Batman.


The Bean fell in love with Catwoman.  Check that, she wanted to be Catwoman.


Excerpts from an actual conversation - 


Me: Who do you want to be for Halloween?


The Bean: Julie Newmar.


Yes, knew which Catwoman she wanted to be.


And as luck would have it, The Bean's boyfriend (gasp) was going to be Batman for Halloween.  And he was not going as the tough, new gravelly-voiced Dark Knight.  No, The Boyfriend was going as the 1960's camp-tastic Caped Crusader.

Pow!! Zap!! Crack!!
