Description

The new memorial images celebrating the lives of those who had brought us much joy on Saturday Mornings.

Bud Collyer was the original actor to portray Superman in animated form in the highly-regarded Fleischer/Famous Studios theatrical shorts. His performance was notable for the subtle change to his voice whenever the character changed from Clark Kent into Superman. Because of this, Filmation tapped Collyer to reprise the role in what would become their first animated project, THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN in 1966. Not only was it their first, but it would become the first televised animated series based on a super hero comic--the first of many.

You can check out the programs they were on and more at Saturday Mornings Forever.

Bud made a great emcee as well. Back in the '50s he hosted the game show Beat the Clock.
