Adventures of Superman - The Complete Third and Fourth Seasons

In association with Amazon.com
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - TV's Superman
I remember seeing these shows on TV as a child. It is such a releef to see these shows again. They are so relaxing and comforting knowing how the world is these days. A Super hero for the imigination as a series is wonderful. I am happy to be able to see these shows again and remember when. They may not have the action and effects as current day superman movies, but these are great to have in any film library.




Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - for completists
I would recommend this dvd after buying the first 2 , which featured the B&W seasons. The first season is a different show, mostly serious, hard hitting, with a 1940's 'film noir' quality. The series became more 'kid friendly' in the second season, but several episodes were still on a par with the first season.

This dvd features the 3rd and 4th season, the first ones shot in color. The comedic tone is set in the first episode when the daily Planet crew is sent back in time to prehistoric times. Those times consisting of a few rocks and a cave.
What saves this show for me is the always ernest performance and charm of George Reeves, and the appeal of the cast even in the dumbest stories. There are still some excellent episodes, but even at their worst this show has an appeal that makes them watchable.
George is starting to get a little long in the tooth already, and I recently noticed that he starts to belt his pants way too high-like Fred Mertz on 'I Love Lucy". But it was the 50's.
I give it 3 red stars.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Great Adventures of Superman:
I loved it, it was absoulity terrific. Of course there is one thing that I was and continue to be disappointed in and thats within the first 2 seasons of which are in B & W. The Compnay that had burned these eposoides on to DVD elimanated one eposoide in particular. This eposoide is where I think it was either Louis Lane or Perry White had been tied down to large log. The log was in a Mill for cutting lumber and either Louis Lane or Perry White would end up being cut in half, when all of a sudden, Superman comes crashing through the wooden wall and stops the saw blade before the one tied to the huge log came in contact with the saw blade. But of course that was within the first 2 Seasons of which were in B & W.
As for Season's 3 & 4, they were absoulity terific. It was so nice to be able to see it in color for a change instead of the boaring dull
B & W. I hope that they don't cut out any more eposoides when it come to Season's 5 & 6.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Lacking the extras of Season 1 and Season 2
I enjoyed the Superman episodes. Many of the episodes I have never seen before. I would have enjoyed it more if commentaries were included like in the Season 1 and Season 2 discs.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - AS GOOD AS IT GETS FOR TV FANS
THE 3RD AND 4TH SEASONS IN COLOR ARE PROBABLY AS GOOD AS IT COULD GET FOR AN AVID VIEWER OF GEORGE REEVES SUPERMAN. I NEVER KNEW THEY WERE IN COLOR TILL 1960 WHEN WE BOUGHT OUR 1ST BIG SCREEN (19")COLOR TV. AS GREAT AS IT WAS IN B&W, THE COLOR SEEMED TO MAKE THE ACTION ONLY TRUER AND ENHANSTED VIEWING PLEASURE. TO SEE HIS COSTUME, PERRY WHITE'S CHECKERED SPORTS JACKET, JIMMY'S RED HAIR; DC COMICS CAME TO LIFE. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ANY OR PURCHASE OF ALL IN THIS SERIES. YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED.!!!
