Trama

- QuizTed Cassidy's cameo appearance as Lurch is heralded by the theme from La famiglia Addams (1964) played on the harpsichord.
- BlooperWhen Batman and Robin visit Penguin in his holding cell, he believes that he is being charged with "simulated murder". Batman corrects him, telling him that he is being held for violating the sanitary code. Since Penguin would have to be told the charge against him before being taken to his cell, this means that Batman and the police have changed the charge without telling him--a violation of Penguin's Miranda rights that Batman would never countenance.
- Citazioni
Robin: [climbing a building with their Bat-ropes] It's sure a shame, Batman. A restaurant with such terrific chow turning out to be a mere front for some criminal scheme.
Batman: Look at it this way, Robin: that hundred dollar cover charge is pretty stiff. Penguin's terrific chow is hardly within the budget of the average worker.
Robin: Gosh, yes, you're right Batman. All the needy people in the world. The hungry children...
Batman: Good thinking, Robin.

Murray Golden, who graduated to MANNIX and MISSION IMPOSSIBLE, directed this wildly camp episode. The ever ever crafty Penguin (Burgess Meredith) WANTS to go to prison to hook up with some nasties behind bars! Accordingly, he tries every trick in the book. The wild scheme is opening a restaurant and getting the signatures of wealthy diners so he can forge them. To tell y'all the truth, it ain't a bad idea.
Best of the best includes heaving a sloppy pie into Commissioner Gordon's mug! No doubt inspired by THE THREE STOOGES.
An episode to watch, with plenty of gags and surprises, namely Lurch(!) Ted Cassidy, looking out a window as Batman and Robin scale the side of the building. "You can go back to your harpsichord!" Batman hello's back.
Veteran Vito Scotti is insane as the nasty chef, cooking up all sorts of spiked treats to aid the Penguin. Of honorable mention is David Lewis, returning as the honorable mayor and popular character actress Leona Richards as Mrs. Swank? Leona played many high society ladies, sort of in the tradition of Natalie Schaefer (Mrs. Howell).
You have to admit, the Penguin is smooth and fast when it comes to lifting Aunt Harriet's bracelet.
Gone in two seconds! Funny, awk-weird scene.
You can tell everybody was having a good ole time putting this together, and Lurch almost smiles? Although filmed at 20th Century Fox Studios, some long shots (street scenes) were actually shot at Warner Brothers. If you ever take the WB tour, the guides will give you lots of interesting details.
