Batman

Wealthy entrepreneur Bruce Wayne and his ward Dick Grayson lead a double life: they are actually crime fighting duo Batman and Robin. A secret Batpole in the Wayne mansion leads to the Batcave, where Police Commissioner Gordon often calls with the latest emergency threatening Gotham City. Racing to the scene of the crime in the Batmobile, Batman and Robin must (with the help of their trusty Bat-utility-belt) thwart the efforts of a variety of master criminals, including Catwoman, Egghead, The Joker, King Tut, The Penguin, and The Riddler.

The fact that this villain was created for the show specifically might explain why it's not as interesting. Riots... at that stodgy Ivy, Yale... that caused him to bump his head & suddenly believe he's a pharaoh? "just some dude got knocked on the head in some unspecified 'riot" -that's a pretty boring origin story for a Batman villain.

I know it's a silly over the top show so I wouldn't nitpick errors in dynasties, costuming  or even that the "Gotham Museum" had a completely different establishing shot of a different building a few episodes back.  But it kept bugging me that Bruce Wayne (who was presented as an expert in this field) and others, kept calling the goat headed statue the "Sphinx".  It absolutely nothing like the Sphinx (a reclining lion with a human face), which even the most casual viewer back then would be at least faintly familiar with.  How hard would it have been to either make a Sphinx prop?  Or just call it some "Egyptian god" statue if you don't want to get into the specific deities (it looks more like "Khnum" , a god with a head of a goat).

I can't help but think, when Batman used his bat spray to make commissioner Gordon and Pauline unconscious to take them to his batcave in Gordon's office, why didn't he have them walk out to his batmobile first so officers wouldn't have had to carry them out. Writers dropped the bat-ball on that one
