Well, way to go Hulu

I forgot how good the music was for this show. My co-worker mentioned that these episode were on Hulu. He also thought the effects were a little dated, which is fair enough. I think episode six is the episode that stands out to me the most though

Dore Krause, ultraman, is Samoan and Yugoslovian. I lived with his family when I was in High School. He was my boyfriend for several years. I havent seen him in about 20 yrs. But he and his family are wonderful people. He is not asian. He is not European. But born and raised in America in a Small town of California called Santa Ynez.

I loved this show and still do. I had taped all of the episodes and let a "friend" borrow it who later told me he burned them. Yeah, tragic and the worst part...I was 10 at the time.

I remeber I ran into the first episode of this series looking for other Ultraman series. I was actually surprised to know that there was both an Austrialian and American Ultraman (No surprise the American one would suck). I tried finding more episodes but with no success.

This was also aired here in the Philippines, around 1999 simply titled 'Ultraman'. Then after this series they aired the American Ultraman (where the hero is named Kenichi Kai and Ultraman had blue eyes). Both shows aired under the same title so my memory's confused. Good series though (Towards the Future) I remember having a VHS-copy of it :D
