  • During its six-season run, the ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN presented a variety of stories that featured a range hard-hitting crime dramas, tales of science fiction, and human interest stories. And some were designed as just plain fun for the kids. Filmed in 1956, "Mr Zero" featuring Billy Curtis as a man from Mars who was exiled to Earth for being too small was obviously designed as one of those "just plain fun for the kids" stories. It also taught a few lessons about kindness and acceptance. Along with Billy Curtis (who had previously appeared in "Superman and the Mole-Men," the cast included Herb Vigran and George Barrows. Vigran, too, was not new to faithful viewers of SUPERMAN ("No Holds Barred," "Jimmy Olsen Boy Editor," "Superman Week," "Blackmail," and "The Big Forget."). His show business career stretched from the 1930s to the 1980s. George Barrows appeared in only one Superman episode, but he can be seen in many other TV shows of the time including THE LONE RANGER, WHIRLYBIRDS, and STORIES OF THE CENTURY. He also appeared in the movie ROBOT MONSTER with Greg Moffett, who can be seen in SUPERMAN's "The Stolen Elephant."

    The black and white episodes were done more seriously. When it shifted to color, it seemed the episodes turned more campy, like Batman.😂😂😂😂😂😂

      That’s true. Seasons 1 and 2 (especially season 1)were police crime drama’s especially made for adults. Then from season 3 on, the episodes were geared more towards children.

    Hi. These videos have stirred up memories which make an old lady smile. Thank you! Was there an episode when Perry White (talking about Clark Kent) said
    I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE HE GOES INTO A CLOSET PULLS OFF HIS CLOTHES AND TURNS INTO SUPERMAN?

    Regardless of the period in which it was made, this episode is - as Gary Grossman wrote in his excellent book - the low point of the series. The one thing worse than Kryptonite: a lousy story. How far they had fallen, from the high level of “Superman and the Mole Men” to this dreck! But that’s how good George Reeves was, that he could maintain his dignity even in these circumstances!

    My least favorite of all the shows. I mean this goes all the way back to like 1960 this show. Sorry it’s too weird. It wouldn’t even be a good comic book story. And they play that saucy music at one point like they know that the whole thing is so contrived and childish.
