On Wednesdays, Batman and his sidekick Robin would confront one of their archenemies and would end the episode in horrible danger, only to save themselves at the beginning of the next episode on Thursdays. These cliffhangers closely followed the tradition created by Kane in the comic books. The television series also followed the comic books' plot.

The success of the series attracted several famous actors and actress to play the villains. Among the most famous enemies were The Riddler (played first by Frank Gorshin and then John Astin), The Penguin (Burgess Meredith), The Joker (Cesar Romero), King Tut (Victor Buono), Egghead (Vincent Price) and Catwoman (played at different moments by Julie Newmar, Lee Ann Meriwether, and Eartha Kitt).
Batman incorporated the expressive art and fashion of the period in its sets and costumes.

Heroes

The whole story is really catchy.. The super-powered people plot has been exploited some other times. Superheroes, bandits, mutants... But the approach, this time is really thrilling. Instead of people wearing tights and becoming crime-fighters, Heroes try to keep their lives as normal as possible, each character accepting his/her ability in a different way, as people are different.
All the suspense and plot twists made me really in love with Heroes. Pay attention to all the actors, who were highly well casted and directed, specially the babes Hayden Panattiere (Claire). There are some very special guest stars, real living legends, who really rock! I wildly recommend this series to everyone! especially because of it's adult and advanced content. At the end of each chapter, you are really eager for the next season! It's the main reason that makes a series a big success.

Kolchak: The Night Stalker on DVD

Kolchak: The Night Stalker was premiered on the 13th of September 1974 and ended on the 1st of August 1975 It tackles the exploits of a newspaper reporter who investigates crimes with unlikely causes and that authorities would not waste time to pursue and accept that it had happened.

The Night Stalker is definitely dated. The stories seem so innocent compared to today’s primetime scripts. The special effects, though wisely minimal, are cheesy at best. The leading man doesn’t look like he just came off a GQ photo shoot. Yes, it’s admittedly a dated relic — but charmingly so. Like a pair of old, soft slippers the Kolchak DVD is a welcome friend on a cold September day.

Carl Kolchak played by Darren McGavin who was described by his editor Tony Vincenzo played by Simon Oakland as a 'has-been big-city reporter'. He does have a girlfriend named Gail Foster played by Carol Lynley which recounts the number of times that Kolchak has been fired, twice in Washington, three times in New York, twice in Chicago, and three times in Boston. He has been blackmailed by the Las Vegas police and never to return to Las Vegas again and that causes for him to be out of job once again and her girlfriend has also been asked to leave town and expend his savings in an attempt to find her, unfortunately he is unsuccessful.

Monster 1988 Seasons 1-3 on DVD

Monsters was produced by Richard Rubinstein and is also the producer of tales from the Darkside and directed by Tom Abrams and Philip Alder ton. The series was premiered on the first of October 1988 and lasted on the first of April 1991.

Monsters is a perverse take on a sitcom intro which begins with an aerial view of a neighborhood drawing closer to what seems to be merely a typical suburban home. the camera enters this seemingly innocuous setting as the family inside in discussing what to watch on television they are revealed to be hideous humanoids creatures with an abnormal number of eyes and elongated, deformed faces who snack on candied insects, yet they are all dressed in very human clothing and live with typical affluent suburban surroundings.

Monsters story is rarely very straightforward and often contained some ironic twist and in addition there was a sense of comedy often lost in horror productions.
