After close to 100 episodes of actresses playing either villains or arm candy, the introduction of Batgirl is a welcome female presence, even if her first appearance sees her kidnapped and blackmailed.

Perhaps TV's first true triumph of style over substance.

At a time when America was already slipping towards cultural, political, and social chaos, the Bright Knight Batman pointed out both how comical and yet reassuring such starkly defined positions can be.

The main thing this campy show is remembered for is the "Pow!" and "Bam!" graphics during fight scenes.

Yes, the show is decades old, and it certainly shows its age, but it's silly fun in a way the few other superhero shows before or since even attempted.
