Last night, Allison and I watched the surprisingly good A&E documentary, Look, Up in the Sky! The Amazing Story of Superman. Aside from paving over any references to Siegel & Shuster's long-running legal battles with DC (and ommitting any reference to comics-only continuity changes, like Byrne's reboot), the show managed to touch on virtually every important highnote in the history of the character in print, radio, televison, and film, with interviews with comics pros like Mike Carlin, Mark Waid, Paul Levitz, Gerard Jones, and Elliot S! Maggin, as well as commentary from the likes of Mark Hammill, Bill Mumy, and Gene Simmons (!) and no fewer than four, count them four Lois Lanes. I would have preferred at least a brief interview with Paul Dini and/or Bruce Timm in the mix, but that was really my only quibble. Running a solid two hours, at least with commercials, the documentary will shortly be available on DVD, but it looks like A&E will be rerunning it a few times in the coming weeks, so warm up your Tivos.
