@Midgardlock Good reply. Real demographic studies on internet usage actually show the "typical" internet user to be male, over 40 years old, and a majority having a college education. The idea that kids only use the internet is a stereotype. Many kids don't have access unless their parents have money
This is still my favorite Superman theme even after all these years. I am 58 and I grew up watching the old black and white Superman shows on TV. I was already an adult when the later remakes of Superman with Christopher Reeve came out I believe in the 1980s
Just about the tightest, plot-setting opening credit sequence evah. However, even as a small kid circa 1960 I recognized the rest was low-budget cheese. Such as the Daily Planet being just about the only newspaper in film with only 3 reporters, each with a private office, so the producers didn't have to hire a horde of extras.

Do the homework. He invades the US from Krypton wihout papers...an illegal immgrant. Flies around without a pilots license or a flight plan...criminal and suspected terrorist. Clark Kent / Superman? ..suspicion of idenity fraud. Drapes himself with the American flag..a Teapartier. And in any era you wish to defend,any one who runs around in leotards....is a pansy. It's a damn shame a fine woman like Lois Lane is wasting her time,at home,pining for him.
I love this show . I have the entire series on dvd. I wish they aren't cancel it but, under the circumanstnaces they had no choice. P.I.P. George wherever you are.
I'm 57 and remember watching the Adventures of Superman when I was a kid. It sure was great when it was on TVLand a number of years ago. I remember telling my kids about the episode "Panic in the Sky" and they thought I was pulling their leg until it was on one day. One of the best episodes ever. Yeah, a bit cornball for this day and age, but in the 50s, shows like this were great. We were afraid of the cold war and this was a good escape.
