Given the serious reverence that comic book heroes are showered with these days, it may be hard to appreciate this silly series from the 70s. Can you imagine Christian Bale’s Batman doing trick shots in a charity golf tournament? Of course, not, but the whole point of this series – at least when watching it close to 40 years after it was on television – is celebrating that very silliness. Yes, the two teenagers and their ‘super’ dog are annoying, but listening to Ted Knight’s delightful narration makes up for any shortfalls.
