    Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
    Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
    Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
    williams6078 Since I WAS 6 YEARS old, I have been a comics and superhero buff. I saw this TV show when I was 11 years old. I have been looking ever since! I was too young to commit to memory any of the actors names. Recently, I saw an old photo of Frank Gorshin. That photo sparked a memory that HE was in fact in this production. That memory led me to this discovery!!! You can't imagine my delight in FINALLY reaching this point. My siblings were too young to remember seeing this. My parents said maybe I imagined this because of all my other comic/movie collector paraphernalia. I will soon GLADLY purchase a copy of this for my collection. One way or another, this will be mine... ;o)
    androidprincesst Hysterically Brilliant, to me anyway. It is in the same vein as the 60's Batman show/movie and Super Friends, but there was possibly less money put towards effects. If you ever wanted to see Sinestro in drag, Solomon Grundy in "disguise", Hawkman not flying or speaking, Adam West staring at Black Canary's butt, and Huntress adding nothing constructive to the plot, this show is for you. Get some popcorn, but no milk in case you laugh at the unintentional funny. But if you like well-made movies with complex interesting plot lines and fine acting, you might want to buy Citizen Kane or something because you won't enjoy this.
    Thanos6 I saw both episodes, the normal episode and the roast, on a tape you can buy at many large comic conventions (so to everyone who wants a copy, that's how you can find one).These things were flat out funny. They appeal to both the lifelong comics-lover and the person whose only experience with comics were the Batman movies.The acting ranged from horrible (Charlie Callas) to the mediocre (Jeff Altman) to the great (William Schallert, Garrett Craig). The jokes were great.Together, these are two very entertaining hours you won't forget. The tape should only cost around $20, and I highly recommend it!
    Dougie B Here's an idea...Let's take all of DC Comics' top Super-heroes... and make a sitcom out of them!That's exactly what this was, laughtrack and all. Think 'Superfriends' in live action form. This series contained a total of two episodes, the first one being all of the heroes trying to spoil a plot of world domination against a number of villians. And it all took place between a park, a gas station, a dirt road, and their headquarters.The second episode was a roast hosted by Ed McMahon, where all of the heroes were humiliated by former friends and family members. Just plain painful to watch.
