So I guess when I watched them on TV in the 60s they were repeats.

1. I only saw it in reruns

As a preteen, I looked forward to every ‘new’ episode excitedly.

2. This is the best Clark Kent

Wry, sardonic, competent. He wasn't the doofus often portrayed in later versions, not just an alter ego, but a reporter who had his own personality.

3. "...And who, disguised as Clark Kent..."

I don't know why, but that was always my favorite part of the opening narration.

6. Hell yeah. Must watch tv. I was in the second grade.

I still recall being somewhat disturbed when my parents told me about his death. It seemed such a stark contrast with the character.

7. I seem to remember that the end of he series was tied to the actor's death

But I checked and George Reeves - the actor - died in June of 1959, well over a year later.
