Notes

add »
Donna Loren main claim to fame was the fact that she was the only real teenager in the Beach Party films.

Donna co-starred with Annette Funicello & Frankie Avalon in the following 1964 movies Muscle Beach Party, Bikini Beach, Pajama Party & 1965's Beach Blanket Bingo. (edit)
Linda Harrison later portrayed Nova in the 1968 20th Century-Fox Sci-Fi Classic Planet Of The Apes with Charlton Heston. Ironically, they were the only 2 people that returned to the 2001 remake of Planet of the Apes starring Mark Wahlberg.
(edit)
In November 1965, Semple concocted a new villain named The One-Armed Bandit, "whose peculiar kick is gimmicked coin machines of all sorts." The idea ultimately wound up in these episodes with Joker in charge of the One Armed Bandit Novelty Company and vending machines that churned out silver dollars, quarters, answer sheets to exams and knockout gas. (edit)
The Joker originally was scheduled to be the first "Bat Villain" to appear, but a scheduling conflict prevented Cesar Romero from appearing on the debut episode. (edit)
