So a show I really enjoyed as a kid (well, young teenager) and wanted more of was destroyed because some program director put her tastes above the audience? I hate when that happens and I hope she got fired for it. I don’t say that to be mean, I say that because she was bad at her job if that was her goal. I hate zombie stories but if I was in charge of programming at AMC during the height of the Walking Dead I’m not killing that show because my job is to get ratings and make the viewers happy, not push my own tastes on the audience. I’ve been hearing of executives killing shows that got good ratings because they personally hated them and it gets on my nerves.
And Superman Family Album was a great addition. Pulling punches even on robots wasn’t. So one out of three is still bad. Beau Weaver is underappreciated as Superman. He did a great job separating the “Superman” and “Clark Kent” identities vocally and he deserves more credit. Sad he never got to play him again.
