While google image searching The Riddler so I could composite his body with the head of a fish, I found out that Frank Gorshin (master impressionist/The Riddler) had a brief stint as a singer. But wait, it gets better: not only did he release a double-sided record, but one of the songs is performed AS The [...]

... clown prince of crime, The Joker (Cesar Romero); the count of criminal conundrums, The Riddler (Frank Gorshin); the pompous waddling master of fowl play, The Penguin (Burgess Meredith); and the fiendish feline, The Catwoman (Lee Meriwether). Brimming with brand new and exclusive high definition bat-features, the Blu-ray Disc includes "Batman: A Dynamic Legacy," a tribute to the caped...

... fundamentally clean-cut than Tyrone Power. Jeffrey Hunter is almost too believable as his brother Frank--that is, sometimes I had to strain to tell them apart. Other admirable cast members include Agnes Moorehead, Hope Lange, John Carradine (who played Robert Ford in the 1939 film, here a preacher), Frank Gorshin, and Alan Hale, Jr. Despite all this talent, and despite a story...

... go in for Star Trek references, but there was an episode in the original 1960s series that starred Frank Gorshin as an alien named Bele who was all black on one side of his body and all white on the other, and he was relentlessly pursuing another alien across many star systems or whatever, and he tried to enlist the help of Kirk and the Enterprise in his pursuit. When the other alien...

... If you watch the credits, you'll notice the voices of Kirk Douglas were done by the brilliant Frank Gorshin , who old Batman fans will know as “The Riddler” from the 1960’s TV show. Gorshin was a fantastic impressionist. Here’s an animatic of the film , also via the NCN forum:

... Adam West and Burt Ward reprising their iconic roles from the 60s TV series, along with the real Frank Gorshin... er... Riddler... as played by Frank Gorshin. That was plenty enough validation for me. It's cheaptacular! Two episodes aired on consecutive weeks. The first had at least a half-assed plot, but the second was simply (and simple-mindedly) a pseudo-roast of...

... posted of herself in a bathing suit.And last, but not least, this is my muse. This photo of Frank Gorshin's Riddler (prominently displayed above my computer banks) helps me keep the balance between my sick, twisted humor, and my murderous, psychopathic tendencies. Believe me, if you had to deal with the usual cast of Philadelphia idiots and the criminals who prey on them, you would...

No really. I saw SKIDOO, the long suppressed all-star Otto Preminger bacchanal, thanks to Mark Evanier and circumstance, and you must see it to believe the LSD prison Riot of 1968, with Frank Gorshin, Peter Lawford, Burgess Meredith, Michael Constantine, Slim Pickens, Jackie Gleason and Richard Kiel. And Carol Channing in a pirate outfit boarding [...]

When Time magazine named Russian president Vladimir Putin its Person of the Year, last month, I was intrigued. Not just because he vaguely reminds me of Frank Gorshin, who played the Riddler in the "Batman" TV series, but because, as Time noted, it wasn't an award. Rather, it was an acknowledgment.

... story. During the first scene – where we see the bad guys (uber-serious heavies Neville Brand and Frank Gorshin) talking around the tied up bank teller – you'd really be forgiven for thinking what you're watching is far from a Disney movie for kids. These aren't the butterfingered bad guys you usually get in these things (and the remake). Later on we witness DC separate a dead duck’s...

On Tuesday, I was interviewed on camera for one of those little "special feature" interviews that comes on a DVD — in this case, it's an upcoming release of the 1966 Batman movie starring Adam West, Burt Ward, Cesar Romero, Burgess Meredith and Frank Gorshin but not (sigh) Julie Newmar, who was replaced in the Catwoman role by Lee Meriwether. The film's been available on DVD for some...

... left over that I may do it again with the opposite. Kind of like that old Star Trek episode with Frank Gorshin playing the guy with black on one side of his face and white on the other. But I digress...Did you make any changes to the pattern? I did a FBA, but I think I could get away without it. I made this in a size 12, because those measurements match mine pretty well. I think I...
