Anyone remember this episode that featured a baby boy that grew up to be a giant? I listened to most of it in the early 80 but never heard the ending.... I couldn\'t tell you if it was a good episode, just that I\'d like to hear the rest!

I was checking my episode guide; this might be it: 0923 - Alien Presences A flying saucer crashes on Earth way out in the country. An elderly couple sees the crash and find its only survivor -- a little baby. That baby grows up on our planet, but longs for his home and his people.

Did this steal 99% from Superman's origin first written in 1938 by Siegel and Shuster? In that version, he went to an orphanage, but it appears by 1939, the Ma and Pa Kent adopt Superman instead. Good thing the *Kent* family inherited a farm at the same time in this story.
