I'm getting my father the Blu-ray set for Christmas. He is going to love this!
In 1966, parents bought BATMAN merchandise for their son. In 2014, the kids buy BATMAN merchandise for their father. And the recipient is the same guy.

I re-watched the whole series last year. I find your post baffling.
Season one was excellent; season two, while not as good as the first, was nonetheless good stuff; then, season three happened with the reduced budget and overall quality reduction. Aside from the two King Tut episodes in S3, it's a terrible disappointment righyt down to the inferior Billy May scores. And no Gorshin as the Riddler in that one late S2 episode? Unforgivable.
The camp, the camera angels, the humors, and yes those traps Batman has to figure out how to get out of.
And then there's the wonderful work of Nelson Riddle underneath most of it.
Yes, the Riddler is great. Catwoman is fun (not so much Kitt). The Joker's oddball humor and excitment is delightful. The energy, drive, passion and excitment of King Tut is just delicious.
In at least two interviews I have seen with Adam West, he told how Cesar Romero thought he was this great latin lover or something and that what made him that was his mustache and he refused to shave it for the role, hence it being powdered over. And that how he played the Joker was just as odd; he's litterally be in his chair on stage, head down asleep, and when his name was called for a scene, he'd wake up and go full blast into character.
In turn that also remind me of a somewhat related story: how Mark Hamill voiced the Joker in "Batman: The Animated Series". Everybody else would be sitting down reading their lines in their booth, and there was Hamill standing up, moving around, being the Joker. Apparently they worked in some of his movements into the animated character as well.

What exactly is missing? I don't have the series memorized so might not have even noticed anything missing. I doubt they'll address this issue.
