Quotes 

• Adam West : [after meeting on the set for the first time]  Why don't we take some time and discuss our approaches to the role?

  Burt Ward : Well, I just plan on saying my lines.

  [sees looks of surprise on faces of West and director] 

  Burt Ward : Is there more to it than that?

  Adam West : [trying to put it delicately]  Uhhh, well, yeah. Maybe a little

• Sexy fan : Can I get an autograph, too?

  [exposes a portion of her left breast for Adam to sign on] 

  Adam West : You know this is a... permanent marker.

  Sexy fan : Good. I hope it lasts forever.

• Adam West : Has anybody seen my bat suit?

• Julie Newmar : Why would you want to rewrite this? The script is brilliant the way it is.

  Robert Butler : Well, we're not talking about a major change, Julie, just the idea that she falls in love with Batman.

  Julie Newmar : I'll do it however you want, but I really think it's a big mistake. Catwoman is, well, she's just--she's wicked. There's no room for love in her life. She teases him. She leads him on. She's a cat.

  [She rises from her chair and walks over to Adam, teasing him] 

  Julie Newmar : She purrs but she has claws. She nuzzles but she bites. And she knows this is the one way to get to Batman: through his suppressed emotions. It's a sensual approach like a dancer, the way she moves, the way she tempts him but she never loses her heart and she never, ever sleeps with him.

  Adam West : Never?

  Julie Newmar : See what I mean?

  Burt Ward : Maybe--maybe she should try tempting Robin, too.

  [laughter] 

  Robert Butler : Adam, okay with you?

  Adam West : She certainly causes curious stirrings in my utility belt.

  [laughter] 

  Julie Newmar : So, where were we?
