I thought you meant Margot Kidder died.

Jimmy Olsen died last fall. I grew up on those old B&W reruns.

I thought you meant Margot Kidder died.

Or even worse Teri Hatcher.

I remember those shows too.. When T.V. shows seemed real

I have some time off work so I just started watching the old black and white shows again. I have the whole series on DVD. Great memories but 40 years after seeing them the first time they look rather corny, but still a lot of fun.

There was a pilot film called Superman and the Mole Men, that came out in 1951. Noel Neill was not the original Lois Lane, that title belongs to Phyllis Coates who's still kicking at 89.

I'm not positive but I believe that film was reshot using Noel Neill once the series became popular. I will check later but if it was then I have it on one of the season DVDs.

I just checked. It was originally a feature film but when the series aired it was turned into a two part episode, but still with Phyllis Coates as Lois Lane.
