On a whim I decided to google for &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/search?hl=en&#38;lr=&#38;ie=UTF-8&#38;q=movie+serials&#38;btnG=Search\">Movie Serials<\/a>&#8221; and found <a href=\"http:\/\/www.serialsquadron.com\/\">The Serial Squadron<\/a>.  It&#8217;s a site dedicated to old serials, including having DVDs available of some classic ones I remember.  I&#8217;m really thinking about picking up a copy of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.serialsquadron.com\/special\/phantomempire\/index.htm\">The Phantom Empire<\/a>.  How can you go wrong with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0000810\/\">Gene Autry<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>Some of the shows they&#8217;re working on just so so wonderfully wrong, like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.serialsquadron.com\/dvds\/preorder.htm#mala\">MALA: Secret Agent of the South Seas<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Yes, it&#8217;s the serial that  everyone&#8217;s talking about. It&#8217;s the one and only Mala, the  spy with the floral loincloth, and his pals Rex, King of the  Wild Horses, and Buck the big fat St. Bernard, to the rescue  as evil saboteurs crack codes and plot to blow up dirigibles  and set fire to ships and stuff on remote Clipper Island in  the South Seas. Will super-spy Mala&#8217;s good looks convince  the beautiful island princess to save him from being sacrificed in the fire pit? Who is that guy with the  amazingly bad cockney accent and what is he doing in this  serial?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Oh yeah, and be sure to check out Ask Ming in the Games section.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning I was chatting with a friend of mine about some of the great old movie serials I&#8217;d seen over the years.
