George Reeves' Adventures of Superman for Beginners

[favoritemonsters]

I watched it religiously as a kid on "RocketShip 7" every afternoon.

Actually you watched it on 'Commander Tom' after school, as did I.
Rocketship 7 was on in the morning.

Followed by Tarzan with Ron Ely. That was a fun Saturday morning line-up. It just went “poof.”

Heroes and Icons seems to be all cop shows now. Which is...ok I guess. Not my cup of TeeVee...

It’s odd of them since their sister station is MeTV, which tends to change their line-up very little from year to year or season to season. I’d think they would have the same programming departments. Maybe the ratings for those shows weren’t very good.

^ That's awesome. Exactly what I plan to do. I just devoured the Adventures of Captain Marvel 1941 serial, which was itself very entertaining.

That one is hands down one of the best superhero serials along with Spy Smasher and the Phantom.

I haven't watched Gone With the Wind for 35 years.

I knew George was in it. But I couldn't really remember much where.

I am starting it now. He is prominent in the very first scene with Scarlet.

Even though I had been watching reruns of Adventures for years, I didn't even recognize him when I saw GwtW in my teens.

...and then 15 minutes in she flat out forgets about George for freakin Clark Gable. Clark Gable!? What are his super powers again?
