Ah, thank you. Come to think of it, I probably remember more of the show overall than individual episodes. But yeah, Christopher Reeve is Superman to me. I don't compare the rest because, for me, they don't come anywhere close. Maybe this new guy will.

I know nothing of the Superman comics. But reruns of The Adventures of Superman aired consistently during my childhood, so I have some familiarity with George Reeves' portrayal of Clark Kent/Superman. His Clark Kent wasn't a bumbling nerd; he was a serious reporter and also an amiable, easy going work colleague. As the clip shows, this Clark was invited to and went to parties! I don't remember if Phyllis Coates/Noel Neill's Lois Lane had a romantic interest in Superman the way Margot Kidder's did. Frankly, IMO, if Christopher Reeves had portrayed Clark Kent the same, I don't even see Kidder's Lois being that intrigued romantically with Superman. She would have been working besides, and attending gatherings with, a competent, hardworking, affable, good looking, SINGLE, Clark Kent who was right there. LOL.

Strange. Considering Jones died at age 18, any interaction Heather and Pamelyn most likely had with AJ was during their child acting days. Then again, I read Pamelyn Ferdin openly accused parents whose daughter was killed by a coyote actually murdered her. So maybe I shouldn't be surprised.

Why on earth was Heather Menzies and Pamelyn Ferdin still salty about the long-gone from this world Anissa Jones in 2016?

I didn't care about the Wicked book series. I love musical theater but had no desire to see Wicked while visiting NYC. The film adaptation of Wicked isn't calling my name. However, this talk of Cynthia Erivo's singing possibly being worse than Pierce Brosnan in Mamma Mia made me curious enough to listen to The Wizard and I. IMO, there's nothing wrong with Erivo's singing voice. And that's all I'm going to say on that.

Actor Earl Holliman who appeared in such films as The Rainmaker (1956), Forbidden Planet (1956) and The Sons of Katie Elder (1965) and portrayed Sargent Bill Crowley on the NBC television series Police Woman has died, age 96. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/earl-holliman-dead-police-woman-1236072160/ https://deadline.com/2024/11/earl-holliman-dead-forbidden-planet-1236188306/ https://variety.com/2024/film/news/earl-holliman-dead-rainmaker-giant-1236224133/ https://www.thewrap.com/earl-holliman-star-of-forbidden-planet-and-the-rainmaker-dies-at-96/
