Other interesting facts:

Did you know the Superman was a serial program? A serial is a series of television programs and radio programs that rely on a continuing plot that unfolds in a sequential episode-by-episode fashion. This type of program follows a story plot that continues to unfold throughout the course of the entire season.

Batman has been produced into seven films so far.

The Star Trek franchise has been the biggest cinematic hit.
