On this day, in 1966, the television show, Batman, debuted on ABC, staring Adam West & Burt Ward.
However, it was not seen in Springfield, Missouri & the Ozarks until a week later, because there wasn’t a full time ABC affiliate in the Ozarks. It was shown a week later on the NBC affiliate, KYTV. I use this descripency as part of my novel.
If it hadn’t have been for the TV series, there wouldn’t have been a story about two college boys running around Springfield dressed as Batman & Robin, that inspired the novel I’m writing.
