I have seen far worse

Warning: Spoilers
This old serial seems to me interesting and quite lively. I enjoyed the fact that the evil Martian has a Russian accent, and so in his time, and maybe nowadays, FLYING DISCMAN was politically educative. When the production of such serials stopped, nothing replaced them. (I know the Spielberg replacement theory; I do not think that it is true. If these old serials may seem a little thin, Spielberg's crafts are too stuffed, too thick.)

Each episode has a delightful name. The cliffhangers are effective.

The serial was directed by Fred C. Brannon,the maker of Sombra, the Spider Woman and other such stuff.
