Ice Capades/Ice Ice Baby

Remember the Batman TV series that ran in the 1960s? Adam West, Burt Ward, Julie Newmar, Cesar Romero, Eartha Kitt, and the like…well, they were central characters of a show prone to tight costumes, onomatopoeia, and double titles (e.g., Instant Freeze/Rats Like Cheese). My two-for-one effort is an ode to the Dynamic Duo. The show’s Wikipedia entry reports that critics of the series contended that the titles helped hide generally low-quality stunts and frequently missed punches. I’ll be the first to admit that I use titles to cover up my lowbrow stunts and frequently missed punchlines.

Apologies for the non sequitur. Enjoy Miss Freeze.
