The Adventures of Superman, Season 5

Crime doesn’t pay. Not when Superman is around. Yet that won’t stop Metropolis miscreants feverishly bent on malevolent misdeeds. A deadly kryptonite ray gun, knights in armor, anti-memory vapor, a gizmo that zaps bad guys across phone lines, even a mind-reading burro who taps out responses (and who has suspicions about Clark Kent!) – all are called into futile service to thwart the Man of Steel. “You can set your watch on it,” Jimmy Olsen says about Superman always showing up in the nick of time. George Reeves returns for the fifth season as the caped hero: stalwart, caring and with a sense of humor…a pairing of star and role that continues to win fans the world over.
