Shazam! "The Athlete" October 12, 1974

 


 


After the dark themes of the previous two episodes, John and
Richard tackle the ideas of equality and realizing your dreams in
"The Athlete".  Is this a tale that still needs to be told
today?  What is it about the "utterance of a single word"
that lends such credibility to the show?  Would this story
need to be altered as we've discussed with previous stories in
order to work for a modern audience?  Are the stunts seen in
this episode the best in the entire series? 


 


 It's all here and we want to hear from you on what you
think of the episode.  Write us as

Moral: “Everyone should be given a chance to prove his or
her abilities."
