My Hero is an American television sitcom that aired on NBC on Saturday nights from November 8, 1952, to January 1, 1953. It was also shown in Melbourne, Australia on ABV-2 during 1956/1957.
The series appears to have entered the public domain, with several episodes viewable on the Internet Archive. Most of these episodes are syndication copies which run about 24 minutes; The original broadcasts had featured a somewhat elaborate opening sequence involving well-dressed people entering a theater (as can be seen on the episode The Big Crush), and this elaborate opening sequence was replaced with a very short (for the 1950s) opening sequence for syndicated repeats, resulting in a shorter running time.
