Gary provides commentary for the Blu-ray release of Dark Intruder, a horror/thriller/fantastical type movie starring Leslie Nielsen and Peter Mark Richman. Released in theaters in 1965, Dark Intruder was actually conceived by Universal as a pilot for The Black Cloak, a prospective TV series about an intrepid investigator who specializes in crimes involving the occult. While Dark Intruder never materialized as a series, it paved the way for other Universal TV explorations of the occult and the supernatural, including Fear No Evil, Ritual of Evil, Rod Serling’s Night Gallery, The Sixth Sense, and Kolchak: The Night Stalker.

Say hello to yesteryear, comic book enthusiasts! In this episode, time-travelers Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) take a trip to the Mesozoic Age...or was that the Devonian? They check in on some ancestors that never quite existed when they read Dinosaurs Attack! by Gary Gerani, Herb Trimpe, and Earl Norem, published by IDW in 2013! After the necessary biographical information, our saurian scientists dive into the 1988 Topps trading card set that birthed this comic book series, and look at why it began at one publisher almost thirty years ago, but concluded at IDW. After a reading of the issue and a brief intermission, these temporal physicists tell the rest of this bizarre and probably overly-complex story, and wrap it up with a history of trading cards--the gory edition. It's an episode steeped in viscera and pseudo-science, you don't want to miss it!

Frank Gorshin returns for one more round as the Riddler. Is he as good as ever, or down for the count? Does Joan Collins' appearance as Siren steal Gorshin's screen time? Is Riddler's alias Mushi Nebuchadnezzar meant as a Muhammad Ali reference? Is Batgirl way smarter than the Dynamic Duo, or is she just written that way? In our Camping Trip, Paul notes how the brisk pace of season three episodes has abbreviated the camp moments as well. Also, in the Bat Research Lab, we look at a late-'70s take on the '66 show from Gary Gerani's book "Fantastic Television." Plus, a metal version of Hefti's Bat-theme from 331 Erock, and your mail!
