In this comedy Classic TV moment, “Television’s Original Genius,” Ernie Kovacs takes on the superhero genre with his parody SUPERCLOD (1956), a direct jab at the popular syndicated series ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN (1952-1958). Edie Adams also stars, as Lois to Kovacs’ Clark Bent.
A comedian, actor, writer and conceptualist, Kovacs’ visually experimental comedic style was ground-breaking. He pushed the boundaries and broke down the ideas and formats that were just beginning to take root in the newly dominant broadcast medium.
The year is 1956, Marshalls is now a thing, Jersey Mike's is taking hold on the east coast and television has replaced radio as the dominant form of entertainment in American homes.
