What was your first reaction to George
Reeves and/or the Superman series?
I was about 6 years old (1956) when
I first remember TAOS. George was totally believeable as the
Man of Steel and I loved his Uniform and wished I could fly and
be invulnerable, too!!

What are some of your favorite scenes
from the series?
There are way too many to mention
here, but I really loved the 'take-off's' in 1951........ the
wire ones. Both George and George Fisher were yanked away and
it almost seemed like 'fast-speed'........ it happened so fast
and appeared so realistic. I also love the "Preview"
segments from '51 ~ back then, they were almost as exciting as
the episodes and they still hold up well today. The fast-paced
scenes and Bill Kennedy's narration were first-rate!!
What interesting mistakes or inside
jokes have you detected?
(LOL) Check out my "Bloopers" page!!!
Aside from Superman/Kent, who was your
favorite character on the show and why?
I liked John Hamilton. He was great
as the crusty, ornery "Chief" and his exchanges with
Olsen were superb. Also, underneath it all, he really loved his
staff of three!
How do you view the series today, as
an adult, differently from when you were a child?
Aside from knowing all the episodes
by heart today, they still bring back that joy I felt back then
and for about 26 minutes, I'm that 6 year old kid all over again!!!
I'll never tire of these 104 'Adventures'.....!!! |
