When Bad Guys CARED enough to wear suits, ties, and hats to do evil...

Never underestimate the strength of a woman. Or how stiff-necked they can be at times.

That was a wonderful time to be a kid. Every mom in the neighborhood knew all the kids. Every kid had a bike. We rode bikes everywhere. No worries about getting shot. People were friendly, even strangers. George Reeves was a great Superman and he always will be.

Superman hiking his trunks after a landing is something you don't see every day.

Star Wars trash compactor scene???

George Reeves will always be my Superman.

As a kid, we didn't overthink it

And as kids ... we believed every second of it!

Superman was probably joking and flew Lois out of the pit right after. They probably couldn't show it due to budget constraints.

If a pair of glasses can hide Superman's identity, Louis having bones as strong as steel shouldn't be much of a stretch.

I remember this episode. Even as a pre-schooler I wondered how non-super Lois' body could stop a wall that was powerful enough to crush them.

So great to be a kid those days...

Pretty amazing special effects for those times.

I loved this as a kid on reruns in the 60s. Clark Kent looked just like my dad...and now like me.

"You'll have to climb out"

I grew up on watching Superman after school and I remember this episode--not so much the beginning of it. I thought the bad guys really had him for good that time, but after all, he was The Man Of Steel! George Reeves was my 'Man Of Steel'. Its a shame things didn't end well for him in real life. He will always be a part of my childhood. Thanks for the memories.

Noel Neill was one of the prettiest women in television history! A natural beauty!

Jimmy crawling out of the hole in his Florsheim wing tips is totally incredible.

As a kid , I couldn’t wait for the next Superman episode . He is and always will be the REAL Superman

Clark: "So where's Lois?" Jimmy"Oh she died trying to climb out of this concrete pit."
