    Hey, I'm absolutely dying to see all the old episodes again. Does anyone know anywhere in Town that has a box set of all 3 series?

    I don't know if the series is on dvd here, but you can the film in most places

    Despite much popular demand, no DVD release of the series has to date occurred in North America, and this situation seems unlikely to be resolved in the near future. The problem as explained by the website TVShowsonDVD.com is that Warner Bros. owns the Batman character, while 20th Century Fox owns the TV series (Warner did not take over DC until 1976), and the two companies have, to date, yet to come to an agreement regarding home video/DVD release of the series (it was later revealed that Warner Bros. isn't involved). This is why no VHS release of the series occurred, either. As a result, the 1966 feature film remains the only element of the original series officially available for non-broadcast viewing in North America. This even affected Return to The Batcave, which was only able to make use of footage from the 1966 movie.

    If it does ever come out just buy Season 1+2. The quality is consistently good here. Season 3 however is simply shocking. Possibly the biggest sharkjump I've ever seen.

    You should in the meantime ask around and see if anyone you know has taped the episodes. One of my cousins had the whole series and I've enjoyed watched them all (apart from season3 of course) recently.
