1988-1992 Superboy intro's Season 1-4

[@JulesGunn]

How this show aired for four seasons and I’ve never seen a frame of it is inconceivable…

[@sageantone7291]

It was so good.

[@charlietriana9448]

I remember it. So do many others as evident by this thread

[@Marcus-p6d6m]

I watched this show every day. Back then tv would play the National anthem and shut down. And come back around 4:30am or 5am. Depending on the channel.

[@LeonhartV1]

In my city this aired on Sunday mornings. But I did forget about this show until the DVDs were released in the 2000s.

[@aaronlogue6281]

I'm literally looked this up because I was like ain't no way there is a 100 episode superman show no one talks about lol

[@kirbykok4544]

When I was teenager In the 1990's, SuperBoy and The Adventures of SuperBoy (1988-1992) Starring Actors: John Haymes Newton and Gerald Christopher was One of My Favorite TV shows when I was younger !

[@AldenRDavis]

“Rocketed from a distant planet, to a bold new destiny on Earth. Found by a Kansas family and raised him as ‘Clark Kent.’ He learned he possessed the super strength of steel, the speed of light and the desire to help all mankind. He is..SUPERBOY!”

[@apreviousseagle836]

That Season 1 intro is probably the most 80's Superman theme ever made.

[@Gametester110-qf8vs]

Hell yeah!

[@hendyw2565]

Yes.. Theme song very cool

[@julioalonsocarlosmartinez7474]

How is it possible that this show lasted 4 seasons and was popular in its time but today nobody remembers it :/

[@comicollector87]

I think its because it became forgotten after it was canceled because of the lawsuit filed by WB after that the show wasn't rerun because of that I feel it got forgotten.

[@alucard624]

It was due mainly to how WB filed the lien against the show ever airing in reruns once it finished it's 4 season run that made it near impossible to remember if you hadn't watched it when it originally aired. Hell, it wasn't until 2006 when Superman Returns came out that the show finally was available to watch again (at least the first season at the time). The later seasons did eventually come out via Amazon's On Demand service finally later too.

[@jwg5774]

Warner Bros was already well into the planning stages of what would become LOIS AND CLARK and didn't want their new series to have to compete with another Superman series, so they slapped the Salkinds with a "cease and desist" order effectively killing Superboy and cancelling the Salkinds plans to spin the tv show off into a series of Superman TV Movies. As to why the series never aired in reruns it did for a time in England and Europe but never in the US. Apparently there were distribution rights issues between the Salkinds, Warner Bros, and Viacom that prevented the series from ever airing in syndication after it's initial run.

[@deigo2011]

because this series is bad and suck

[@leejee88]

ill never forget it

[@carloscampo6720]

When I was a boy , I played Superboy because this program was popular in that time

[@louisborselio8608]

I don't care what any idiot says. This was a damn good and fun show to watch. And Lois and Clark coming in one year later can be seen as a great follow up.

[@renealexander2703]

I love this show, too.

[@w0undedmakers251]

There is nothing cooler (and more 90s) then the image of Clark riding a skateboard and ripping open his shirt to reveal the \S/

[@MrSayandatta]

I still remember this intro music.. Used to watch this when i was a little kid..

[@spacekadetentertainment]

This show was syndication GOLD right here!!!!!

[@stangreen3947]

Loved this series. Wish someone would air them again.

[@ReR7474]

TUBI

[@Rambo-Gaming]

I was in 6th grade when this show came out. Totally loved it and still do.

[@mrmotown313]

I remember watching this when I was a kid. As far as I can recall, it used to come on every Saturday evenings at 6:30 PM here in Detroit right after the television sitcom version of Harry and the Hendersons. John Newton played Superboy in I believe the first two seasons, and Girard Christopher played Superboy in the last two seasons.

[@cameronrashaudunlimited]

It was pretty good, to be honest. I've met Gerard Christopher recently. He is a cool guy.

[@marcopoggi5491]

The real "SMALLVILLE", for me.

[@zt1053]

I can’t believe the Syfy channel never showed reruns of this.

[@jameswallace6227]

Disputes over ownership rights kept reruns from ever airing, which weren’t settled until 2005. Then, it took YEARS for the better seasons (2-4) to get a long overdue release. Luckily, all four seasons are available on DVD and streaming on Amazon👍🏻

[@JoseAngelC]

The first song (the first two intros) are still my favourite song of a superhero series ever.

[@SimsMoyal]

i can't even start to tell how much i loved this show - was so depressed it got cancelled

[@ricksantos1580]

+SimsMoyal - Agreed the 1980s and 1990s were the best for TV Shows. The 2000s was the beginning of the end! Too much Reality nonsense.

[@Ghost8386]

I loved this show.

[@TheDylandProductions]

Superboy, The Flash, Sliders... 90's TV was AWESOME!!!

[@actionfigurescollectionssu7854]

I love this show too

[@SimsMoyal]

@Lazy Mastermind spot on!!

[@airwolfwwf]

I love this show and I was bought all seasons and I take my time watching them so I can enjoy it

[@ravingrays248]

I remember watching this show every Saturday night on fox at 6:00 at least in Florida that was the station that played it in it's original run plus it was filmed in my home town of Orlando memories.

[@albertmikesell3186]

Just finished ordering SUPERBOY THE COMPLETE SERIES on Blu-ray disc TODAY arrives NEXT week so excited

[@sandroirizarry9546]

Blue-ray disc, where?

[@ICESPACEMANGALAXY]

Great show. I still love it till today

[@danielhausser8038]

Same sir ❤

[@johnedwards4214]

I really enjoyed this series as a kid brings back good memories thanks for the upload

[@AldenRDavis]

Stacy Haiduk now played Kristen Dimera/Susan Banks on "DAYS OF OUR LIVES."

[@AriesCarrionCaine]

I had the biggest crush on Stacy Haiduk, she still looks good.

[@jeromesears6586]

Still do

[@williamdavidfrancavilla7388]

Easy there, Romeo

[@truthexposed1428]

she looks good

[@ReR7474]

Last time I saw her was in True Blood. Totally different character lol

[@zt1053]

Only a year after Superboy ended she would star in a show that ran opposite Lois and Clark

[@savagedarksider2147]

One of the reasons I love this show, they actually had A redhead for Lana Lang. I wished this show had A crossover with Smallville.

[@zt1053]

Probably inspired by the redhead that played Lana in Superman three

[@supercool2999]

A very underrated superhero TV series.

[@Ammeeeeeeer]

Ah 80s/90s opening credits and special effects, I watch this with half nostalgia and half cringe 🤣🤣🤣 Also look at the evolution of the leading lady's hair! 😁

[@danielhausser8038]

I like it very much ❤

[@gkgyver]

This show was so 90s it's incredible.

[@stephensanders2104]

I WAS BORN IN 1983 HOW DON'T REMEMBER THIS SHOW

[@dalekhaji7255]

Terimakasih sudah menemani masa kecilku 🙂

[@danielschonberger179]

I remember this is one of my favorite TvSeries. I like the series with John Haymes Newton and Gerard Christopher.

[@satanscross77]

I just got all four season's off itunes for $9.99 a piece it was nice to revisit this show :)

[@diamondking3421]

80s syndicated TV was the best.

[@thomasparnell1025]

I Never knew this show existed, but around that time period, I was working a lot & guess I never saw it because of that. I've got to check it out, hope the series was good!

[@cj222100]

Omg this was my favorite as a kid, & I had a huge crush on John Haymes Newton (the better of the 2!). It came on Saturday evenings, followed by My Secret Identity, another show I adored

[@alucard624]

Newton was a better Clark and just looked better as Superboy versus Gerard IMO. I can't be the only one that hated Gerards uber nerd take on Clark as well as his lisp when talking as Superboy.

[@GOLDSPORTSAS]

Me encanta superboy❤ PAPASITO

[@MbariHogun]

In 1988 (one year after the present Sunshine Skyway Bridge opened to traffic), the views of both the Old Sunshine Skyway and the New Sunshine Skyway were seen in the Season 1 intro of the Superboy Television series (which is based on DC Comics character Superman {in his preteen and teenage years as Superboy}). This started and finished before the demolition of Old Sunshine Skyway in 1993 as the Superboy TV series ended its run about one year before the bridge demolition in 1992.

[@robertthomas5736]

This Show is Incredible

[@CedricPetit-kh1ft]

Ça rappelle mon enfance...🦸

[@Justin-nw3zx]

I honestly did not know this show existed til fb just showed Something on it hahaha

[@muhammadnurhidayat870]

Menyenangkan. Ketika kecil suka menonton film Superboy di televisi

[@jokerz7936]

I remember watching this as a kid but never caught the Miami Vice Feel to the first intro till now lol.

[@AldenRDavis]

3:21, 4:07, 4:54 - The title was renamed "THE ADVENTURES OF SUPERBOY" for seasons 3 and 4.

[@robertthomas5736]

Great Special Effects

[@CaptainBars]

The second intro in this video (the one that starts at 0:40) was the best -- both visually and in regards to the music arrangement.

[@Endgame707]

Great show.

[@olamfialahamendu6210]

This is a job for Superboy!

[@14DaveHunter]

The only thing that hurt the series, was Ian Mitchell Smith's character, in Season 2. He was that typical and annoying "friend", that tried get rich quick schemes. Other than he, Season 2 was good. Introduced traditional villains, as Metallo and Bizarro.

[@zt1053]

TJ, the photographer was a much better sidekick for Clark. Buy season three I guess the producers realize they didn’t need the third friend in the Clark Lana team. I guess they were trying to parallel, Lois, Clark and Jimmy Olsen

[@estevangarcia1089]

I love how Titans makes a homage to this theme.

[@SuperJmoney92]

Wait what?

[@ChargerBullet]

@@SuperJmoney92 They played part of this song in the background when Dick Grayson/Nightwing helped Conner Kent/Sueprboy overcome the mind control he was under and flew.

superboy series need definitiv a remake !

[@mannylincoln]

Love this show 👽🤟

[@balltvbandung6591]

love it until today

[@gradeahonky]

That season 1 intro had a huuuuuuuuuuuge effect on me as a kid. It's so simple and relatable to a kid. He's just flying around, checking out some bridge. He's not fighting anyone and no one's in trouble, we're not introducing characters or dwelling on plot. the dude can FLY. Might as well fly around and check some stuff out!

[@melissarosario6176]

i had such a crush on this guy when a was a young thing he still cute to me now😘😘😘😘

[@tmoore4075]

Loved this show as a kid. Comic fans these days don't know how good they have it with so many tv and movie options.

[@Fantom6400]

After the show ended in 1992, re-runs of the Superboy series were NOT aired neither throughout the rest of the 1990s due to a copyright issue between Warner Bros. and the Salkinds. Notice that this series didn’t even get a VHS release like many other shows did at that time. To my understanding I have heard that by early 2002-03 Superboy was broadcasted on cable systems in the UK. The rights issues were finally resolved later on and the series was officially released on DVD in 2006-07.

[@zt1053]

I was surprised the Syfy channel never showed reruns of it

[@maximusprime3459]

They reran once thru our local Fox affiliate channel 32 in Chicago after its first run. Then it disappeared thereafter.

[@jennimileski6723]

Superbly is my favorite Tbsp show

[@josephvijay1132]

Both this along with "Lois & Clark" are zillion times better than the current CW shows!

[@jasonwebb1882]

As big of a Superman fan that I am. Until I got the new dc universe app I don't think I remember this show. And now reading the comments on here is making me feel better that I wanted to see what is was about before watching it. Who knows, maybe one day I will be so board I might try to watch the first episode

[@alexw.132]

This television show definitely deserves a Blu-ray DVD release! All 100 episodes in HD! The Flash from 1990 will be getting released on Blu-ray soon! Superboy definitely deserves the same treatment! This very forgotten and very underrated Superman tv series never got the credit it deserved! All 4 seasons of Superboy, (1988-1992), should be released on Blu-ray!

[@moeschizlac]

It already does.

[@alexw.132]

@@moeschizlac You mean Blu-ray discs that are considered bootleg? An official Blu-ray release from Warner Bros hasn't happened yet. Hopefully it will soon!

[@moeschizlac]

@@alexw.132 Yes, there has been an official release back in 2006 for season 1 though. It's on Amazon.

[@stephensanders2104]

0:16 I LIKE THE MUSIC

[@zt1053]

Something I never thought about was that only a year after Superboy ended Stacy Haiduk starred in Seaquest which aired opposite Lois and Clark. Initially seaQuest got higher ratings because it was running on the Star Trek bandwagon But as the year ended viewers began to see Lois and Clark was a much better show. The first season of seaquest was so bad Stacy and Stacy and severs other cast members were not invited back for season two Which ironically was even worse. It seemed the show finally was getting act together by season three but by then it was too late and viewers didn’t wanna give it a chance

[@zt1053]

@pumpkinspice8184 It began to improve by season three but as I said before, it was too late and the viewers didn’t wanna give it a chance

God damn! Makes Lois & Clark look tame by comparison.

[@marcotiero]

I'd actually forgotten about this show until today, but I remember watching it and enjoying it as a kid. It's a shame it's not on any streaming services. Again UK don't have the first season on DVD, the other seasons cost £35-55 each.

[@thylacinethetigerwolf1372]

Trivia Facts : Superboy and Lois And Clark : The New Adventures of Superman was supposed to be a spin off..bridged connection..basically where superboy becomes a Superman..in addition Gerard Christopher(season 2-4)..was cast as Superman for the series however when the producers recognized/realized he had played the character before they replaced him with Dean Cain..
