As a kid, I would get off the school bus, run inside, and turn on the tv for Batman. Once I had seen them all multiple times, the fascination wore off a little… but I would still run inside to catch the intro. I would usually turn off the tv and go outside to play, UNLESS the intro featured Batgirl. Then, I would stay and watch. I was 10, and had no idea why she held such a spell over me. Now, I know.
