The Batman TV series premiered on ABC starring Adam West and Burt Ward as Batman and Robin. The first episode, "Hi Diddle Riddle," pitted the Dynamic Duo against the self-styled 'Count of Conundrums,' the Riddler (Frank Gorshin).

Rest well, Bright Knight.
#HappyBirthday to #AdamWest !
The actor who played a campy #Batman on TV was born #OTD in 1928. He was born William West Anderson on September 19, 1928, in Walla Walla, Washington.
In a classic hilarious scene from #TheBigBangTheory comedy show, West (playing himself) ranks the various live-action Batman actors.
"I never had to say, 'I'm Batman.' I just showed up. People knew I was Batman."
