It already is...

Yeah, 120 episodes on Blu's gonna be pretty pricey...

Hopefully that's accurate. Now if only we could get word on if they'll be uncut.

I know they will be fully uncut because waner bros knows that cutting footage would piss a ton of people off and also that is what took them so long to release this on home media, Getting ALL the rights together for the entire show. Window appearances included. Common knowledge.

Cool news.
I would like it on blu but can understand if it Is only released on DVD.
Don't know if I would buy it if it's DVD only but I hope it shows up on instant Netflix.

Seconded. This isn't a thread about the show in general, it's about a release. If anything, it could've been moved to Wish List, but that doesn't seem right either.

Announced by Conan O'Brien in a tweet this afternoon, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has confirmed that the complete 1960s Batman TV series will be getting an official release. Details are still to come on the release, but for now WB has revealed the entire series will be sold in a complete box set later this year.

Starring Adam West as the titular hero, "Batman" ran for 120 episodes from 1966 to 1968 and has become a fan favorite featuring Burt Ward as Robin, Yvonne Craig as Batgirl, Burgess Meredith as the Penguin, and Cesar Romero as the Joker.
