MST3k- Adam West hosting Turkey Day '94

Appearing on Turkey Day '94

Adam West (1928-2017), born William West Anderson, was an American actor primarily known for starring in the 1966-1969 Batman TV show and related projects as the titular character. Mr. West found himself so closely associated with the role that he subsequently had difficulty finding more serious work.

West later enjoyed a career resurgence, often appearing in roles that parodied his famous persona. He performed many cartoon voice-overs, including for the popular animated TV comedy Family Guy as an exaggerated version of himself. West also appeared as a guest on the Cartoon Network talk show Space Ghost Coast to Coast.

Mr. West was active and vital until the very end of his life. Among his final projects were two animated films in which he returned to the role of Batman. He passed away in June of 2017 at the age of 88 from leukemia.
