  1. Janie

    Penguin for the win! His purple top hat gets my vote!

  2. Rachael

    Lol forget the Barrack-McCain debate

  3. H. Nunn

    Well, it is certainly more entertaining and more transparent than the current election campaign.

  4. Batman

    Awesome video

  5. Stephanie

    McCain was as hot headed as Penguin in the last debate.

  6. Donna

    Penguin was telling the truth but it was deceptive as most political speaches are

  7. Tara

    Very cute, indeed a nice change from the heavy debates :)

  8. Mary

    Loved the video.. Penguin gets my vote. No mud slinging!!

  9. Boo

    Funny and nice break from real campaign

  10. Heidi

    Nice to watch a debate with substance for once!

  11. Mike

    Meredith Burgess did a great job with this role….Great in Rocky too!

  12. SCOTT

    I think Mccain could use some lessons on debating from old Meredith.

  13. Mary Smith

    Cute

  14. dawn

    What’s behind the mask?

  15. Chuck

    Penguin allways wins, Batman is played out.

  16. Kareem'O Wheat

    The old batman was so weird.

  17. Andy

    Adam West > All other politicians.

  18. Mory

    Penguin for the win!

  19. Melissa Allen

    He’s going to hurt someone with that umbrella!

  20. Poohy

    I vote for Penguin!

  21. Annemarie

    I don’t remember this episode!

  22. Denise

    This was not as funny as the hype said it would be….

  23. Mandi

    Excellent - highly entertaining

  24. Summertime

    Still not sure who to vote for?

  25. MATT D

    Wonder midget to the rescue!

  26. Julianne Jacoboni

    This is funny, the penguin is just like one of our current candidates! lol Guess which one. lol

  27. Charlie

    Scary how realistic the penguin portrays one of our current candidates.

  28. Stephanie

    I like the purple hat

  29. Sarah

    I thought this was funny, and it was also a nice escape from the real campaign.

  30. Robbin

    Its Pretty realistic the penguin portrays one of our current candidates, `no mud slinging` Very cute, indeed a nice change from the heavy debates.

  31. I guess this campaign isn’t any different than those in the past. Who cares about issues when it’s all about how much mud can be thrown.

  32. J

    Sounds like your average political debate.

  33. gotta love the GOON Tees

  34. Kenneth

    Nice debate

  35. Rachel H

    Hey no mention of Joe the plummer?

  36. Dorothy Brown

    Ha- Finally a debate that brought a smile to my face!

  37. April

    It’s so ironic how the penguin reminds me so much of McCain!!! How he says he wont be swinging any mud but the first thing out of his mouth is some ridiculous attack on his opponent! Oh the irony!!!

  38. Shannon

    eerily familiar…life imitating art?

  39. This was so lame, but I guess I’d have to vote for the pinguin on this one - he was more entertaining than Batman.

  40. rodrigo

    A way to forget the massive goverment campaign that attack us everyday

  41. With politics today as unpleasant as it generally is and having such fond memories of the old batman show especially the penguin character I loved this, I’d vote penguin, as long as his treasury secretary isn’t the joker :)

  42. Ellen

    It was humerous, but didn’t get the huge laugh I wanted out of it. Personally, I think I’ll vote for the person running the camera.

  43. Interesting video. Captures the feel of the times.

  44. Jennifer Schmidt

    The video was nostalgic, but not as funny as I was hoping.

  45. I wonder if the modern Batman will be seduced by this penguin personality. This surely is acting. Great video for sure, would like to see a Batman vs. Penguin fight in the future, it might be funnier!

  46. Duane Rich

    its funny how the more things change the more they stay the same, i was half way expecting the penguin to make a “Joe the plumber” reference…

  47. Angel

    lololol Batman looks ridiculous in that costume but if i would have to vote my vote would go for the penguin only because the Batman then sucks and the penguin still acts the same…I mean look at Batman’s mask it is ugly and i didn’t think that Batman could have gotten my vote.

  48. Scott Schroeder

    Obama = Batman
    Mccain = Peguin

    Or Vice Versa???

  49. theresa moore

    batman looks so uncomfortable

  50. John

    I think the Penguin may have ruffled Batman’s feathers in this debate! lol

  51. Andrea Morgan

    Penguin wins this debate for sure.

  52. Sara

    im voting for penguin!!!!

  53. Taylor

    More entertaining than the real debates, they really hit the real issues at hand.

  54. Melanie

    i thought it would be funnier

  55. Mike

    Humorus, but too long. I would rather watch the predential debate.

  56. Lesa

    Awesome video

  57. Sergio

    The video was very entertaining. It shows truth to what actually is going on with the real debates. Five Stars!

  58. April

    meh. I didn’t think it was all that funny. The real debate is a better use of my time.

  59. Tia Weimer

    I thought this was a cute debate but there are better things to do with our time.

  60. Steven

    The Penguin does a really good McCain impression.

  61. Angela perruzza

    What was the point of that video? pretty boring

  62. Evan

    It just goes to show you, we have known for a long time that our debates were set up by one interest or another, but we just haven’t come to grips with it yet in a way that allows us to start from square one again.

  63. viktoria

    nice vid

  64. Burgess Meredith can certainly give our Contemporary candidates some
    enthusiasm. He waddled his way right over Batman. But as alsways Robin to the rescue. Who would be the better Robin Palin or Biden to rescue US?

  65. How can you have confidence in a man running for president who wears a mask?

  66. I agree with BRIAN M. The facial expressions are important than the verbal messages. I am just reviewing the site for better videos. I found this one interesting.

  67. Martin

    I thought it was great how Penguin could make all his wrongs look right!

  68. Liz

    hilarious!

  69. Neil

    great video - very funny

  70. JAKE

    it’s funny how just the way you word at something could swing people opinions in such a way, i would have like to have seen more people in gotham responding to the penguins smooth talking.

  71. Nick Woodine

    Great video!

  72. My goodness, this video is a great adaptation of the current election. Very clever.

  73. This is truly a crazy video, MY VOTE GOES TO BATMAN!! NOT IGNORANT AND WELL SPOKEN!! SUCH A HUMBLE MAN!!! THATS WHO I WANT FOR THE NEXT US PRESIDENT!!!

  74. looks like the penquin mirrors McCain and batman is Barak!

  75. Eric

    O-batman

  76. Alicia

    Ha ha! Penguin sure knows how to skirt around issues and put a brilliant twist to the truth! A true politician!

  77. Joan

    A good parody of political debates.

  78. Batgerl

    Batman will always win my vote!

    First Gotham, then the World!

  79. Denise

    Did the taxpayers of Alaska pay for that purple hat???

  80. Camara

    This video brought back funny memories about watching Batman when I was a kid.. “POW, WHOOP, etc…lol”

  81. nahnahnahnahnah……. BATMAN!!!!
    nahnahnahnahnah……. BATMAN!!!!

  82. amber

    CUTE

  83. Jeff

    back in the day when you could still smoke indoors.

  84. rjones

    i forgot how much i miss the old days with batman and penguin. i cant believe abtman lets us down.

  85. Ryan

    I take the penguin over either Obama or Mccaine. All crooks but at least hes a character and worth a laugh.

  86. STEPHANIE

    Forget Sara Palin’s clothes…this guy rocks!

  87. josh

    Iv seen some debates in my day and this one was one of the best hahhahahaha

  88. Robyn

    I have always been a Penguin girl myself…

  89. safiyyah

    Funny video, i love batman:)

  90. LisaKsday

    Wow. Just like the current ads, huh? Let the “spin” continue!

  91. LisaBear

    “ya I’m so tired of the campain and the lies. I would rather watch this anyday!!

  92. Coop

    The older verisons of Batman, classic!

  93. Tom

    What a great clip especially in this election year!!! I would vote for Batman.

  94. I am a big fan of Batman and debates so I was naturally a big fan of this video.

  95. Brian

    What a classic debate. The losing candidate trying to overshadow the better choice.

  96. The Batman legacy lives on! It was great to see that there can be humor in the debate process.

  97. Clay

    Looks like pengiun won the debate

  98. Sharon Johnson

    McCain is definitely The Penguin. As for Obama, just call him Batman!

  99. sara

    to funny.. i thought that they fought not wanting to be president

  100. Jason

    Batman may not win this one, but he’s always got a career as Mayor of Quahog!

  101. Eric

    I think the joker set himself up to be the real hero of Gotham city lol.

  102. Steven

    haha penguin in a debate lol funny stuff

  103. This was a great clip of how election bashing is seen by the public.

  104. Juanita

    Whatever happened to clean elections? This video brings home how we, as a people, see the past and almost the current elections. Time to put an end to the old politics and open wide for the new way: NO POLITICAL BASHING just clean cut disclosures!

  105. The elections of batman and penguin was clever-interesting and a great way to show how election bashing is seen by others.

  106. LaDonna

    It was okay it just wasn’t as funny as I thought it would be

  107. Angella

    That Burgess Meredith, what a charmer ;)… the follow-up apathy of Batman just doesn’t cut it after his performance lol.

  108. Sarah

    Hmmmm, who to choose.. Penguin has a good point.. lol

  109. keith saling

    Batman, one of my Superheroes, is always a thrill. The joker is a gas!

  110. brandy armstrong

    Pow! Wham! Boom! Penguin knocks it outta the park!!

  111. Penguin for the win. If you can twist truth like that, why not?

  112. Ray

    Very funny video… Wonder Midget. LOL and also very relevant. :)

  113. L. Johnson

    Perfect show of “Spin”. Its amazing how close this comes to just about every political speech I have heard. It’s so much like the bible…….you can phrase words (spoken and written) on way and they can be interpreted in so many different ways……the possibilities seem to be endless!

    What a classic look at political speeches and debates in such a wonderful classic way!

  114. Sunny

    Go Penguin Go!

  115. Steve-O

    WOW!! The penguin’s got my vote….

  116. Jaspar

    The penguin is such an overactor. I love it.

  117. Matt

    I pick penguin for sure….lol

  118. Batman brother,… you’ve got to put some pazaaz in your debating skills.

  119. Josh

    Hoffman would be an excellent Penguin, but I think DeVito did a good job in the early Batman movies as they were more true to the “comic” style in their delivery

  120. I found this nostalgic yet timely of course with the advent of the election. Honestly, the video was not high in laughs but it was delivered with the over emphasis on drama so that always makes for a laugh. The quality of the video was good considering the age of the film.

  121. Angela

    The penguin was telling the truth but yet he was telling nothing but LIES….

  122. elukamecham

    This clip was cute.

  123. Sheena

    If it were only this simple.

  124. lew marcus

    Classic Batman TV and perfect satire on politics on television

  125. Erica

    This definitely breaks the realm of boring presidential debates and campaigns

  126. Med

    This video reminded me of the first vice presidency we had on the U.S. Pretty ironic that this was the first uniform created for batman.

  127. Now I know why there was an upgrade! lol!

  128. Trisha

    This video was cool. better than the regular debates.

  129. ken

    those were the good old days

  130. Erick

    I’m Batman fan so this was great clip. It is funny because it has so much similarity to the presidential campaigns. Who knows who is really telling the truth? Sometimes comic book stories are a reflection of our society.

  131. Danielle

    GO BATMAN!

  132. Kimberly

    Somebody should tell the Penguin that opening up an umbrella inside is bad luck!!

  133. Liz

    I remember these guys. It is so funny to watch now!!! Go Penguin!!!!

  134. Vasean

    Cute

  135. David Sachel

    This link is no longer valid or no longer exist.

  136. K Stott

    Funny! How close to the truth is this?

  137. Kristine

    Batman is such a tool! But even so my vote goes to him!

  138. Meaghan

    I vote for penguin! He is a cutie!

  139. Joe

    HAHA, the penguin is just classic. Best debate all year.

  140. vinni

    classic

  141. Charlotte Fraser

    Very entertaining. Hmm, the Penguins says no mudslinging, stick to the facts — I don’t think I’ve ever seen a political debate like that !!

  142. Alicia

    Peguin sounds like everyone else. Very funny video.

  143. david

    reminded me of the Biden/Palin debate. A whole lot of nothing being said

  144. Very dry humor.

  145. Brand

    The penguin should run for office. He sounds a lot like the candidates we have today.

  146. amy

    totally on par with the debates from the election

  147. Dawnielle

    Classic Batman you got to love the good ole days.

  148. Shyleen

    This is some serious batman! I’m loving it.

  149. Nick

    R.I.P Burgess Meredith. He was the man.

  150. Kristina

    Woo Hoo!
    Campaign tricks at their finest.
    So much for “The Good Old Days!”

  151. Nick

    It’s a classic example of the games of Politicians, whatever the word means.

  152. Linda

    Doesn’t this hit a little close to the truth?

  153. Nneka

    Great act

  154. btROgA pjywhwvjcwmm, [url=http://smyjdltebefn.com/]smyjdltebefn[/url], [link=http://pxastvgrkybo.com/]pxastvgrkybo[/link], http://haaytbkoxgwi.com/

  155. Courtney

    I’m for the penguin. Like many said, it’s a great break from the real election!

  156. BRENDA BENNER

    Good idea, it shows how people can be easily misled.

  157. Kevin

    So is who is Robin, Joe Bidden or Sarah Palin?

  158. bc

    anyone who wears purple and uses the word rancor is a loser in my book!

  159. Daniel

    Hmmmm,,, that fact that this episode was actually played makes me weep for the new batman movies….. what a difference… I like batman begins a little better…. correction…. a LOT better.

  160. Brandon

    wow, thats a really old video, but never the less its still funny lol.

  161. Gayle

    I miss these old shows. Burgess Meredith was a great penguin.

  162. batgirl

    Great video. An oldie but a goodie

  163. Kind of dated, but could have been the better candidate

  164. timb

    this video also sux.

  165. Nothing like the original classic Batman to bring back memories.

  166. braden

    I like robin!!

  167. fred

    I vote for penguin

  168. Matt Cruz

    That seems alot more interesting then the debates we just went threw,
    and the promises were closer to the truth.

  169. karen

    Not very interesting, but its cool to see the old clips for the original.

  170. Rob

    I wouldn’t vote for Penguin if he paid me $1 million. That’s like voting The Joker president, wrong! He is only pictured with the law around him because he broke the law. He’s also clearly a cheater, BAH!

  171. Rob

    I do like these old clips though.

  172. sally

    There’s a lot of truth to this. People need to pay attention to what being done not said.

  173. Corey

    Nothing beats the good ‘ole Batman humor. Cheesy but classical.

  174. Jessi

    What a debate! glad the real one’s over and out!

  175. jen

    I love batman especially the old tv shows

  176. jen

    I love batman

  177. Rick

    Batman already has a running mate, Robin. Penguin needs a running mate.

  178. Stephanie

    Batman is so great

  179. mack

    True reflection on politics - they’re all criminals behind the mask.

  180. Thomas

    penguin for 2009 !! lol it so reminds of the presidential debates

  181. cos

    why do i always think of rocky when i see the penguin, lol…”hey mick!”

  182. Sheila

    Penguin sounds like a Republician (McCain to be exact), and unfortunately, Batman has been reduced to the Mayor of Quahog. Politics, what a life.

  183. Kristy K.

    Classic!

  184. AC

    Well, Penguin does bring up a lot of great points…. I’ve only seen the Bat with criminals :)

  185. John Rivett

    Ha.. A Classic, Bugess Merideth was great as the Penguin

  186. MM44

    I thought this was grand, but one sided.

  187. Gabriel Valle

    Haha, Wondermidget!!

  188. megyn

    good video!

  189. Pat Morris

    Not just amusing, but actually pretty insightful commentary on the political campaign, politicians and the media.

  190. Nancy Davis

    I love the old batman. It brings back memories. Thanks for breaking the tension of the actual political climate that is currently taking place.

  191. ss

    It is so good to see real politicians in action!
