- Alternate versionsThe 2004 Delta Entertainment DVD release uses freeze-frames from the opening pan across the circus (which includes the fire-eater and stiltwalker moving, plus a balloon and duck-shooting range). This is presumably an effort to conceal a short segment of distracting tramline film damage, as seen in other versions. The caption card's roving spotlight motion is similarly omitted.
Featured review
Monkey Business
I really enjoyed the fact that the producers were able to put a little different offering before us. The usually simplistic plot is jazzed up. Apparently, the Fleischer Brothers were on their way out, and further Superman episodes would be watched over by someone else. In this one there is a circus in town. For some reason Lois and Clark are sent to cover it. Most of the episode has to do with atmosphere and circus images. That is until some carelessness leads to a huge gorilla being released, putting Lois in danger and causing a bunch of dangerous animals to be released. Superman must attempt to quell the scattered carnivores and rescue Lois. I thought the suspense and the realism of this episode was good. No outer space attacks. No misguided or mad scientists. No weird science.
