"Good"

By MrBond5000, Mar 22, 2007

This was a very strange episode in my view. I liked it alot to tell the truth. Its where this one guy from a small town gets mixed up for Superman. Cause his last name is Superman. They think it also cause he is really strong. He even moved a piano and bends some steel. There was no crime involved in this one. It was pretty goofy actually. Two crooks bet on the money they have left after one gets out from jail. The bet is whos freinds makes the better lemon pie. So the one crook wants the pie from his freind. She wont give it to him or make him one. Since she swore not to make any execpt for her guy. She wants Superman to take it. But the guy takes it to her guy. It was funny cause the guy in alaska thought he was going crazy. The crook even goes to where he is to steal the pie. In the end Superman stopped the crook. I thought this was a funny and clever episode. May have been goofy but it was just interesing.moreless

"Perfect"

By strarskyfan, Jul 27, 2006

Flight To The North is one of my very favorite episodes of the Adventures of Superman. George Reeves had a wonderful gift for comedy and the rest of the cast in this one all give superb comedic performances. It's especially fun to see Chuck Connors in this episode. What great casting! Connor's is superb and his character is extremely funny. Ben Welden is also excellent. Welden appeared in several episodes of the Adventures of Superman and he's in very good comedic form in Flight To North. This is without a doubt my favorite perfomance from Ben on the series. Flight To The North is a great comedic episode of a great TV series. Don't miss this episode if you love to laugh!moreless

TRIVIA (1)
ADD TRIVIA
- ILLOGICAL: Sylvester J. Superman and Lilly Belle, the donkey, make it to the Great White North on foot for thousands of miles under brutal conditions carrying a pie. Not even remotely possible. Unfortunately, many plots of the color episodes bordered on the silly whereas seasons 1 and 2 dealt with character.
