Editorial Reviews and DVD Information about Adventures of Superman - The Complete Second Season

Product Description
Containing one of the most instantly recognizable intro sequences to a TV show ("Look up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Superman!"), THE ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN was the first attempt to bring the comic book character to television screens. Great cinematic characters such as Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and of course Clark Kent himself were established on the show, with Kent attempting to live an anonymous existence as a reporter for the Daily Planet by day, but transforming into Superman, the last survivor from the planet Krypton, when trouble comes calling. George Reeves plays the Man of Steel in this complete collection of episodes from the second season of the show.

Adventures of Superman - The Complete Second Season pretty much follows the formula laid out in the first season, building on what made the groundbreaking show so popular. For many fans, season two is the best of the series and it is easy to see why. Each episode has that strong "mini-serial-crime-movie" feel and was again scripted and shot to appeal to adults as well as younger audiences. This would all change once season three, the first color Superman season, rolled around and the producers would strictly tailor the show for children. The biggest difference viewers will notice in this season is the new Lois Lane. Fans had to say goodbye to the wonderfully tough Phyllis Coates, replaced by the perkier Noel Neill who would play the sassy and smart journalist for seasons to come. For many young girls growing up in the 1950s Noel Neill's Lois Lane, the first liberated woman presented to the TV audience in the children's market, was the ultimate role model. Highlights of season two include "Panic in the sky" (the episode many feel is the series best--where Superman saves Metropolis from an asteroid that also erases his memory), "Semi-Private Eye" (where Jimmy Olsen poses as a private eye to stalk the bad guys), and "The Defeat of Superman" (where Superman loses his powers thanks to a dose of Kryptonite). --Rob Bracco

Customer Reviews for Adventures of Superman - The Complete Second Season

This show was great
I love this show. Even though it had been ended for decades, I watched it all the time when I was a kid. I am happy to watch this show with my three year old son. We both have a lot of fun watching it and I'm glad to have a show like this to be able to do that.Adventures of Superman - The Complete Second Season

classic tv
I grew up watching these shows. Own every season and now my children watch them too. Good classic tv without all the sex and violence. Perfect.Adventures of Superman - The Complete Second Season

Super nostalgia
If you are a Superman fan these sets are for you. Such memories they bring back from our youth... yes from a much simpler time. The stories are much improved in season 2 over season 1. The plots and of course the special effects are very dated and simple compared to today but eh... you'll like 'em.Adventures of Superman - The Complete Second Season

A Great Gift!!
My husband is a big Superman fan ever since he was a little boy and when I found these original black and white Superman Series, I knew that he would love them! So now he has Series 1 and 2 and I plan on completing his collection with all 6! A big hit!Adventures of Superman - The Complete Second Season
