Batman Was an Overnight Sensation! The Ratings soared and audiences fell in love the dynamic duo of West and Ward. In fact, Burt Ward and Adam West continued to do movies, TV shows and appearances, individually and together, until Adam’s death, and had a lifetime of more than 50 years of friendship working together and have even been submitted to the Guinness Book of World records in 2017 as the only two actors who have worked together for more than 50 years. Burt has also been submitted to the Guinness Book of World Records as the actor who has played “Robin, the Boy Wonder” most onscreen in all forms of media; including TV, Movies, Animated Features, TV Animated Series, Radio performances, and more. In 2016, Burt Ward’s and Adam West’s new animated feature film, “Batman: Return of The Caped Crusaders” was released in theaters as well as on Blu-Ray and DVD and was reviewed and acknowledged to be the best Animated Superhero Movie of the year for 2016. Outside of his time as a “Caped Crusader”, Burt and his wife Tracy have made names for themselves as “Canine Crusaders” in founding Gentle Giants Rescue and Adoptions. The charity has rescued and adopted more than 15,500 giant breed, medium breed, and small breed dogs, along with unique combinations, during their 23 years of operation. All of the dogs are socialized, behaviorally trained, and live communally together in their home. Gentle Giants is the largest giant breed dog rescue in the world and rescues and finds homes for 45 different dog breeds, ranging from 2 lbs. to 300 lbs.
