Superman & Lois (Page 1 of 3)

Its Smallville what... 9.0 now? This time with more reused plot particular to Smallville 1.0 rather than just the usual who-gets-to-go-into-danger and OMG-lying-is-bad plots all the other CW iterations use over and over. That said, it's not as painful as Legends or Flash or Supergirl. At least not yet.

I am a huge superhero fan

I am watching it however, I am struggling to not fall asleep somewhere it has lost the action of Superman with all the drama of dialogue of family life. I hope they give it another season as the actor who plays Superman in Supergirl nails the character he deserves a spin off.

Love and Sunshine

That's what's making it the most painful for me. Personal preference but I'll take poorly written melodrama over poorly written camp any day. But if you like it you might be in luck as both Supergirl and Flash have already had their own time travel pseudo-comedies this season.

well we are at eps 9 and things are starting to make sense and happen. But 9 episodes? I ask you. I hope this is a 18 eps thing other wise it will be a joke

I kinda like the phasing, in fact I like the drama and character building more than the overall arcing story.

And I think the actor for Superman is doing great, especially how he display his emotions, both anger and more sympathic feelings etc. In both Clark and Superman form.

It seems that their son in the comics is gay and bi

I just hope they dont get their mitts on Stargirl

I wouldnt put any thing past The CW doing some thing like that to the shows. Though Geoff Johns might resist in Stargirls case

I mean, these days I just ignore everything DC comics does that's not connected to Batgirl (Cassie AKA The Black Bat), Batgirl (Steph AKA Spoiler) or written by Tom King... especially after they killed their VERTIGO imprint! And don't even get me started on the Wonder Comics imprint, I mean even when they swipe from MARVEL they screw it up... Freakin' DC!

I actually recently decided to re-read the Tim Drake Robin series... good times!

That being said, I love what they're doing here on Superman & Lois with twins. I think that's very interesting... I was actually hoping, at first, it would be a proximity thing with the brothers (like one would only have powers if they touched or were near) but that might be a bit too convoluted for a TV series on the CW.

Still I really enjoyed where the show went this first season and I hope it keeps up the quality... unlike every other CWDCU series (except for Black Lightning which was excellent all the way through and Legends of Tomorrow which actually got sooooooooo much better as it went on).

I wonder if the Super Family will be in the FLASH crossover this year... because really my only issue (I wouldn't call it a complaint), this is the same issue I have with the MCU, is even though Clark clearly lives on a Earth with Supergirl as well as a bunch of other supers yet almost none of them are even mentioned in this show. Don't get me wrong I liked seeing Diggle, but that was it... really?!?! This story is about Krypton and Clark's Kryptonian cousin is in flying distance... come on folks!

Now I'm not saying the CW should have filled this show with guests or anything (except for 100% Clark's actual cousin who should have at the very least been mentioned) 'cause it would have been nice to get more of a sense of the larger universe this series is a part of... like even if it's just kids in school with FLASH gear! Or in the background arguing over who would win in a race Supergirl or Superman? Or, gosh forbid, have someone say something like, 'Kara can't help because she's stuck in outer space' or whatevs... I mean I don't even watch Supergirl any more (see the aforementioned trajectory of CWDCU series) so if she was in space or suck in the 31st Century I wouldn't know if this series doesn't tell me.. just sayin'.

next a trans superman

Ahem..super-person.....

So, I hear Lois's sister (from Supergirl) is moving to Superman & Lois!

Nice first Ep!
