Review S 1 Ep 3 The Case of the Talkative Dummy 8 The premise is dubious but it worked for a while with these crooks speaking over a ventriloquist's voice to relay information key to the successful hijacking of loaded armored cars. Our intrepid reporters get wise to the nature of the voice-overs, Clark connects the remaining pieces upon eavesdropping a phone conversation with a theater usher and the armored car company president. Superman's feats are used to save Jim Olson, to shield bullets making the owner give up his scheme and seeing through a safe again the horde of stolen currency. The entire recurring cast is present in this third episode and working well together with the guest cast in their roles as Superman intervenes to foil the perpetrators. The benefit of the doubt is extended to the stories as they will improve as the writers become more seasoned in writing for a television drama in the early fifties, television very early years. The actors have literally hundreds of credits under their respective belts, but have to rely on some weak scripts early on in the series.
