I watched Cliffhangers every week. It was an interesting concept, featuring three very different serials. The stories were picked up in progress, at various chapters. I was annoyed that only the Dracula story actually came to a conclusion.
The western one wasn't my favorite but it was good, campy fun. The scenes set in the underground empire were shown in color but the scenes in the western town were shown in black and white.
It's actually an uncredited remake of an old Gene Autry serial called The Phantom Empire that I saw on PBS. And the nicest thing that I can say about Cliffhangers is that at least Geoffrey Scott didn't sing.
