"Look! Up in the sky!" George Reeves is a fine Superman/Clark Kent in TV's first serious attempt at a superhero show. Vapid writing and low budgets don't quite overcome talented cast; see especially Phyllis Coates as tough-cookie Lois Lane. Crude SFX are laughable today but were state-of-the-art for early-`50s TV. First season is darker, slightly more violent and better produced than subsequent seasons. Excellent five-disc set includes 26 half-hour B&W episodes (three with useful commentaries), short character doc, wretched two-episode feature SUPERMAN AND THE MOLE MEN, cereal commercials and Reeves as Bill Cody in a 1940 short. Accomplished early television.
