Hey Cashman… How would Ultraman last 5 minutes with Jonny Socko’s Flying Robot? He runs out of solar power after 3 minutes!!! Seriously though… Ultraman kicks ass and anyone who missed it as a kid, is poorer for it. I got the whole first series on DVD and forced my kids to watch it all (they loved it!!!).

I used to watch this series as a kid in Penang, Malaysia in 67-69, i think. Way fun and the predecessor of all superheroes either in tv or the screen. Loveed to watch it. Now I live in Canada and still remember it

I LOVE Happy Raine! I watched her show religiously, especially during the Ultraman years. I’m so glad to see that she responded to this thread. It warms my heart to know that he is still around.

Rainey, can you please create and act in a new TV series for us 40-somethings? I want to be on your show for my 44th birthday!

I have also seen some of Rainey’s stage work; she is a very talented lady. Charleston is lucky to have her.

I watched Ultraman in Charleston, too. Did anyone else go to the Saturday afternoon Japanese monster movie showings at the Riviera Theatre in the mid-seventies?

Every kid that grew up and seen the 70’s in New Jersey, KNOWS THAT, Johnny Soko’s robot couldn’t last five minutes with ultraman that would be a drop kicking martial arts mess.

Happy Rain,… I always wondered what happened to her.

My Brothers and sisters and I all grew up watching her on Channel 5.

I used to beg my mom and dad to let me be on the Happy Rain show, didn’t happen:(
I did get to meet her a couple of times though.

Once she came to our school, and another time she was at the mall. I used to think she was the most magical person. (besides my uncle paul)

I did not have a TV at home during 70’s – but instead steal money from my dad to buy the comic book on ultraman – we used to call it superman. 30 years later – my 3 years old boy is rolling in front of the TV set every day when ultraman is on. I do hope he quickly grow out of it, proceed to TopGun, Terminator, Batman, then on to more serious history channel dogfights. Can believe Japanese can create such simplistic characters – absolutely no sophistication whatsoever. But – I guess I was a fan once upon a time
