A tip o’ the Dog Rat toupee to my best buddy Denro, for tipping me off to this 1975 ABC-TV production of the 1966 musical, It’s a Bird… It’s a Plane… It’s Superman. Lesley Ann Warren plays Lois Lane. She would have been good in The Rocky Horror Picture Show if Susan Sarandon hadn’t played Janet in the movie.
Coming in May will be an official Warner Blu-ray release of the 1940’s Fleischer/Famous Superman cartoons. It’s being reported that the original negatives have been scanned for perfectly super image quality. The cartoons will also be available to purchase for online streaming.
I was hoping you’d appreciate seeing it!
Thanx and a tip of the Hyman hat to d&d for allowing me to revisit this little rhinestone of a TV show. I think the updated arrangements are what did it in, considering what a terrific cast they had. Class assignment: compare and contrast with Broadway version.
