Julie Newmar became a part of Hollywood history when she starred as Catwoman in the 1966 "Batman" television series, but Newmar isn't exactly thrilled with Christopher Nolan's 2012 adaptation, "The Dark Knight."
During an interview with Michael Yo for Yahoo's "The Yo Show," Newmar revealed that "in a way" she does not like the evolution of the "Batman" series.
"It's dark," Newmar told the show. "I think we had so much fun in the 60s, 1966 to 1968. And then Vietnam came and things sort of got darker and darker and darker."
She also thinks the costumes make a difference.
"What with all the costumes that they have to wear now, there's a lot that you can't see anymore," she told Yo. "You know, when you have everything sort of padded out and very macho and all that kind of thing. It's as if the costume acts for you."
