Summary: TV's Best Adventures of Superman Volume No. 1.
Comment: I had bought TV's Best Adventures of Superman Vol. No.1 from another video company and found it to me,to be of extremely delightful Superman entertainment. The Superman cartoon contained within Volume No.1 was the first time I ever saw a Superman cartoon. It was beautiful!! I too was so happy to watch again after such a long time, classic episodes from the classic TV series with George Reeves. It brought back so many Superman memories from my childhood!! I have been a fan and a big fan of Superman since I was a little boy and I still am now at age 35.

Summary: Stupid bad guys think they can impersonate Superman...
Comment: Bad guys impersonate Superman and Jimmy Olson on this videotape, which contains two episodes from the "Adventures of Superman" television series starring George Reeves and an animated "Superman" cartoon. In "The Face and the Voice" (B&W Episode #36 November 21, 1953), a gangster has plastic surgery done on his face so he looks like Superman and the Man of Steel gets blamed for a series of crimes he did not commit. Hayden Rorke plays the psychiatrist, just like he will do on "I Dream of Jeannie." In "Jimmy the Kid" (Color Episode 4:6 April 28, 1956), a gang of phony investment operators hire a double for Jimmy Olsen (Jack Larson) to break into the Daily Planet. Both of these episodes feature Noel Neill as Lois Lane. In "Showdown," one of the Superman cartoons produced after the demise of Fleischer Studios, there is a Superman imposter who likes to steal jewels for the crime boss of Metropolis. Clark and Lois catch up with the phony at the opera, where it is up to the real Superman to bring down the curtain on him (sorry, couldn't resist that one). George Reeves was certainly the perfect Clark Kent and the Fleischer Superman has always been my favorite, so this tape provides the best of both worlds. But even as a kid I could not understand how anyone could be fooled by a fake Superman. Everyone knows Superman only does good deeds.

Summary: Great series, but WHERE'S THE DVD????
Comment: These are remarkably good shows. The basic themes are simple and repeated time and again. But the sense of humor displayed by the writers and the not inconsiderable charismatic persona of George Reeves make this series a cut above.BUT WHERE'S THE DVD???????????

Summary: Superman Super Video
Comment: These episodes brought me back to when I was 9 years old, putting everything else aside and devoting 100% of my x-ray concentration time to watching each weekly half hour show with my friends. The music (which is repeated so often over the course of these and all the episodes in the series) really struck a nerve. I understand there are more than 100 episodes in the entire series. I'm sure that many of my brother boomers would agree: What a fantastic DVD package that would make!
