Batgirl PSA 1973 Batgirl wants equal pay.

[@M3xican_k1d_009]

Robin: wait,you're getting paid?

[@tuckerbowen4626]

Batgirl: "I've worked for you a long time and I'm paid less than Robin!" Batman: "That's not a salary, that's his allowance. I'm still his legal guardian."

[@M3xican_k1d_009]

Yes XD Barbara won't be getting any cash unless she's willing to call Bruce "daddy" (take this as you will)

[@tuckerbowen4626]

@@M3xican_k1d_009 i hate the idea of that as a canon story yet i love the idea as a dirty fanfiction premise. what does that say about me?

[@kevingamble1775]

Just imagine Batgirl and Robin pulling up at the Batcave on pay day looking for that check😂😂😂

[@CollaborativeFilms]

Great quality film footage. This is a different version than I'm used to seeing which shows the William Dozier opening: "A deserted warehouse on the outskirts of town, and a ticking bomb spells trouble for Batman and Robin". Then when Batgirl says, "I've worked for you a long time and I'm paid less than Robin", Robin replies: "Holy discontent!" Then when the bell rings, Batman says "Can we talk about this, later?" Then Dozier says: "Will Batgirl save the Dynamic Duo? Will she get equal pay? Tune in tomorrow, or contact the Wage & Hour Division listed in your phone book under the U.S. Department of Labor."

[@curtthegamer934]

That's the version I saw as well. I had a DVD with that on it. It also had the unreleased Batgirl origin episode, several variations of the Batman 1966 movie trailer (including a foreign language one), and some footage of Batman on stage or something like that.

fun fact: the Batman cowl you see here is actually the original pink cowl prop from the episode “the contaminated cowl” just repainted

"No time for jokes" what the hell

[@PhilipMarcYT]

She's nowhere near as well known as Batman. It's a joke she asked for it.

[@bobbova8708]

I had the good fortune to have met Yvonne Craig at a Ray Courts film show and asked her about this commercial, specifically if Batman was actor Dick Gautier to which she replied yes.She had an interesting acting resume and was an extremely kind person

[@larsulrich2761]

Boy it would have been interesting if Robin (Burt Ward) hit the media circuit after this commercial and let loose. He was only paid $450 a 30 minute episode during the third season. Yvonne Craig was paid $1250 an episode so she was the Second highest paid actor on the set with only the main character Adam West making more than her.

[@CarlosGarcia-vd2xh]

To be fair, though, Yvonne Craig had to do ALL of her own stunts (except for riding the horse in the Penguin episode), while Adam and Burt had their own stuntmen for the wide shots in the fight scenes. Therefore, she did have to work more, and devote more time for each episode than did the dynamic duo.

[@larsulrich2761]

@@CarlosGarcia-vd2xh O.k. so either you are trolling or you are just ignorant. Burt Ward not having a stunt double and even ending up in the hospital because of this is well documented. So she did not have to work more than Burt Ward and in fact over the three years they took much greater risks filming with Burt than Yvonne.

[@JohnnyGNV]

@@larsulrich2761 Yes, he did have a Stunt double as is evident in the distant shots - however, his stunt double did not look that much like him and there was an instance where Burt did get injured during a fight scene.

[@ybrix101]

@@JohnnyGNV In some shots, you can see that his stunt double had lighter curly hair. 😆

"I'm paid less than Robin" "he's my son, Barbara. I'm not paying him to fight crime I'm paying him because he does chores."

[@ferozkhan8463]

Doesn't Robin have 6 years more crime fighting experience than Batgirl hence the pay gap?

[@abrahamthebewildered1448]

Shut up, Batgirl. You didn't even show up till season 3. That's like me showing up to a company and complaining on my first day that I'm making less than the guy who's worked there for 20 years.

[@darryllharden9141]

A ticking bomb means trouble for Batman and Robin.(GLASS SMASHED!.) "Holy breaking and entering it's Batgirl!". "Quick Batgirl,Untie us before it's too late!". "It's already too late...l've worked for you a long time and I'm paid less than Robin!"."Same job,same employer means equal pay for Men and Women!". "No time for jokes, Batgirl!"."It's no joke...It's the Federal equal pay law!". "Holy act of congress!". If you're not getting equal pay contact the Wage & Hour Division U.S.Department of Labor.

Robin ain’t getting paid 💀😭

[@castle3863]

Robin said, "Holy discontent!" originally. Why was that part cut out???

[@CollaborativeFilms]

Because this is a different version of that same commercial.

[@aereiq]

And then... Explosion. The end.

[@johnrushman1586]

Apparently Batgirl found out Batman's contingency plan. Respectonite.

[@existentialdeist7541]

Are they taking into account same hours worked and same amount of work performed?

Don't blame batman.Blame the dept of labor

[@ProfSaxby]

who is in that Batman costume?

[@rickbrady6983]

Dick Gautier.He played Hymie the robot agent on the 60's tv series Get Smart.

[@perryprince836]

To see his face better look for the Mel Brooks spoof series 'When Things Were Rotten', he was Robin Hood in that series for 13 episodes in 1975.

[@CollaborativeFilms]

Hymie the Robot. His father's name was Hymie.

[@PhilipMarcYT]

Equal pay, but most don't even know Batgirl exists. Wants equal pay while doing less. 🤪

[@mlongpre100]

it would have been funny if the bomb exploded when batgirl touched it

[@shanerulez79]

I mean Robin has been with the company longer

[@gewtube3794]

Forget that, she probably doesnt fight crime 7 days a month...deserves less pay

[@CarlosGarcia-vd2xh]

Remember that she had to do her own stunts, while the caped crusaders used stuntmen...deserved more pay. 😄

[@AzguardMike]

But Barbra worked as a librarian, meaning she was earning more than Dick, who was basically living off the Wayne estate.
