• The First Lady of Metropolis -- Featurette about Noel Neill reprising her Superman and the Mole Men role as “Lois Lane” in the second season of Adventures of Superman; includes interviews with Noel Neill, Jack Larson, Gary Grossman and Jan Alan Henderson (RT 7:00)

I can only assume that the error here is in the article, not in the featurette.  Noel Neill was not in Superman and the Mole Men - she was reprising her Lois Lane role from the Kirk Alyn Superman movie serials.

"Panic in the Sky" is in season 2, isn't it?

I'll probably stop collecting these after the second season, because I fear the effects that color, and parent censorship, had on the show...

It seems that way, the person who wrote it got confused.

They get cheesy and silly, but still loads of fun, only the 1st season was serious, the 2nd started getting more light hearted, after that it's pure cheese. It is still worth getting, it's Superman after all. :D

Some of the show's strongest episodes were during the color years. (Yeah, there were some stinkers...but there were stinkers in the black and white run.) "The Perils of Superman," "Divide and Conquer," "The Mysterious Cube," "Great Caesar's Ghost," "The Wedding of Superman"...all of them stand up with the best of the black and white run. And "The Tomb of Zaharan" is worth it just to see Noel Neill half-naked.

I wouldn't ignore the color years. Just skip the weaker episodes and enjoy the classics. That's what I do with the black and white shows.
