- Tame Adventures, But Loving Memories
Most who have reacquainted themselves with the now complete "Adventures of Superman" from television's golden age would likely agree that the series' fifth and sixth seasons were its weakest. By then most of the stories did not meet the standard set in the first and second (b/w) seasons. The show was always shot fast and on the cheap, but now a certain carelessness had also set in, such that you can almost watch these last episodes just to count the flubbed lines that weren't reshot. That said, the series never lost its playfulness, the obvious love the actors had for one another, and the respect for the kids in their audience. They did their work so well that they never dreamt they were making pop culture history that would endure for over five decades and counting. Finally, however, the show belonged to George Reeves, a fine actor who breathed affable life into a comic-strip character. For those of a certain age, George Reeves remains the definitive Clark Kent and the most endearing of all Supermen.

- George Reeves, the original and best Superman
Having been born in 1954, I vividly remember coming home from school and watching "The Adventures of Superman" every day. Naturally in the 1960's it was in black and white, but the stories with all their simplicity stuck in your mind and captured you imagination. With Seasons 5 & 6, I now have all 104 episodes of this great TV classic, and I still enjoy them all immensely.Each episode is a minautue movie with great baddies, and of course Jimmy, Lois, the Cheif and Clark Kent/Superman.A favourite is "The Mysterious Cube" and I think the menu is quite clever. Thats my opinion.

- Adventures of Superman - the ENTIRE 12 DVD set!!
I encourage anyone who enjoys Superman and wants to relive a bit of your childhood in fun-filled nostalgia, to purchase the entire series of the "Adventures of Superman" (played by George Reeves); the full set of all the episodes consists of 12 packed DVD's (I got mine all at once in a 3-pack collection, saving a little $$). This is your chance to view the ENTIRE Superman TV series, from the first episode to the last (prematurely ending with the death of George Reeves).

- Superman - the Original
I have certainly enjoyed Superman in most of his incarnations, but there is something about the original. I enjoyed all 6 seasons of the original show on DVD. Seasons 5 and 6 came together. It was great!! To all of you Superman fans out there, you really should see this!
