If I were an underpaid woman in the ’70s, I’d have been overjoyed to see this commercial.

They joined forces against that villainous pay inequality. Dang, the Department of Labor was on point in using popular media to get their message across.

If you’re not able to watch right now, here’s the script. But don’t underestimate the nostalgic feeling you’ll get from watching a little old-school TV. It’s short!

Narrator: A ticking bomb means trouble for Batman and Robin.


Robin: Holy breaking and entering! Its Batgirl!

Batman: Quick Batgirl, untie us before it’s too late.

Batgirl: It’s already too late. I’ve worked for you a long time and I’m paid less than Robin. Same job, same employer means equal pay for men and women.

Batman: No time for jokes, Batgirl.

Batgirl: It’s no joke. Its the federal equal pay law.

Robin: Holy act of Congress!

Batgirl: If you’re not getting equal pay, contact the Wage and Hour Division, U.S. Department of Labor.
