Fantastic series

tforbes-2

This show was a real treat, both on ABC from 1957 to 1959, and on the Disney Channel, with its blend of adventure and comedy.  Excellent cast!

I am sorry that the series did not film further episodes, because it was superb.  I saw it as a kid in syndication in 1965-66, and then again in 2002 on the Disney Channel.

"Zorro" had to have been the "Batman" of the late 1950s.  Indeed, in the comic version of "Batman" it is Zorro whom Bruce Wayne considers his role model.  After living in Texas and the Southwest, I can appreciate the series even more.  I just wish Disney would bring it back, and that someone would revive the series.  It was so interesting!
