I miss this show. And I really wish they had finished it off well - not with a cliffhanger.
Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher were Perfect casting choices. Dean was a great Clark Kent and a very enjoyable Superman. Teri was ballsy, beautiful and bewitching.
The first series is a little formulaic. Once the romantic side of the show really kicks in, ai thought it was class-leading. The most enjoyable iteration of Superman we've ever had.
This level of humour, fun and class hasn't been reached by any of the modern superhero films or shows. The closest is The Flash but even that has some distance to travel to match the greatness of L&C...
8/10 overall.
Ah nostalgia. Going to watch again.
This show is actually more about the developing relationship between Lois and Clark, rather than the adventures of Superman.
And it handles the development of the relationship between them extremely well. It is very built up and handled correctly. I would say this is a romance and investigation show mainly, and a superhero show second.
And i love it. I really like the characters involved, with Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher becoming my favorite Lois and Clark ever. Their friendship is built up so well, as is their romance, and it's even good when they finally get into a relationship. YES! And it's handled in a mature and responsible and well-written way, even through the trials that test them.
As much as i love that, it gets even better. Many of the episodes are well-written, and even though most of the stories are grounded, meaning, Superman isn't facing many aliens or galactic threats, the villains and stories are still really good, along with good investigative work. With what the writers had to work with in having a more grounded atmosphere, they did a great job. It also gives more time in fleshing out all of the characters, and Lois and Clark are very well fleshed out.
I talk about the show's grounded nature, but there's plenty of times where there's more sci-fi/fantasy elements and bigger stories, and there's plenty of scenes with Superman in action and saving the day.
It's a very good show. It falters a little in season 2, but soon picks back up in season 3 and 4.
It's actually quite a wholesome and inspiring show at times, and the romance is so sweet and realistic and loving and genuine, i love it.
The show eventually became like family to me. It is one of the shows i fell in love with. You laugh at the jokes, you smile and go "aww" at the cute moments, and you don't really want the show to finish. When you fall in love with a show, you either watch so many episodes in a row or you start to slow down, savoring each one. The latter is what happened to me. I love this show. I love many shows, and it's hard each and every time after i finish one of those shows. But all good things must come to an end. And, we can always rewatch. We can always imagine in our minds what happens next or what happened differently, or read fanfiction or make our own. We can always follow the actors too, or the characters in alternate universes. And we can always write down our thoughts about the show, hoping to inform people of what it's about, and hope to get them to watch it and fall in love with it as you did.
Really great show.
Acting and special effects are great especially for its time (acting even feels better than a lot of shows or movies nowadays). You can feel the chemistry between Dean and Teri in the show. They and even almost everyone else feels perfect for their roles - amazing cast.
The story is great, but like with every show there are some episodes that a bit boring or slow pacing and also because it is an old show some aspects of it feel a bit outdated or silly nowadays.
Used to watch this and love as a kid. Did the full rewatch and used it for workouts watching. So many memories, so enjoyable.
