Superman Episode Guide -Ruby-Spears Prods

Superman Episode Guide Logo
As part of the Superman 50th anniversary celebration, Ruby-Spears created a new animated Superman series. Each show featured an 18 minute "Superman Adventure" and a "Superman's Family Album" short. This new Superman series brought back a few familiar foes, along with new unfriendly faces, for weekly battles and a peek into the private life of the man with the S on his chest.

The final four minutes of each Superman episode were devoted to a brief snapshot from the Superman Family Album. These biographical segments showed the kids at home what it was like to grow up as the most powerful boy in Smallville. Unfortunately, super powers only made awkward childhood and adolescent situations even more awkward, as young Clark was forced to deal with his first day at school, an overnight scouting campout, getting a driver's license, his first date, and more.

The shows' music and styles were based on the recent Richard Donner/Richard Lester Superman live action films.
