Can you name all these side characters in the 1960s Batman?

Do you remember these Gotham residents who helped the dynamic duo?

 

After the famous Dynamic Duo, the best-remembered parts of the Sixties Batman series are the many colorful villains. While the conflicts between the heroes and crooks were the driving force behind many wonderfully wacky adventures, there were many other characters who filled out the world of Gotham City and beyond.

Here are the unsung side characters, the ones who helped Batman and Robin fight crime or, in some cases, got in their way. Can you name them all?

It looks like LoveMETV22 took the high road and biked this movie to us by seconds over MrsPhilHarris-Congrats all 3 of you for playing and this was fun.
Note: I had this movie on IA and it got taken down. After hours of search I went to YT and found it. So one time YT has saved me on a movie. Usually they are for rent or buy or with commercials. You can watch on YT or use Chromecast or other means of putting to TV if that is your wish.

Movie Quiz 7-8-2022.

The most suitable way to describe '"This movie'' is that it is the "popcorn movie of the 50s". This is one of those films which you can watch repeatedly and be entertained each and every time. It has characters and dialogs worthy and memorable enough of becoming a part of pop culture, and so even after many years of the film's release, I think people must've said 'Hey look, they're showing XXX XXXX XXX! This movie is pretty cool and pre-dates most others of it's genre type. Most likely stirred up the stiff shirts when first shown. Top two actors are known world wide back in the day. We have seen both of them in movies I have shown. That being said you'll never forget it. Both of the male actors we know have Oscars. Here it is below once someone guesses it. Both of the male main actors have Oscars. One may have more then 1.
