List of film serials
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
NB: Some of the cross references refer to the pages of the pulp, comic strip, radio, comic book, literary or historical character rather than to a page exclusively about the serial. Then, as now, franchises were put into many different media, and often the charectar is not notable enough to have pages devoted to each incarnation.
