The writing on Superman and Lois has consistently been really good. They’ve taken a lot of interesting approaches to things and made some great choices. Lois having cancer is, to the best of my recollection, the first time they’ve gone in that direction, and it’s the kind of crisis that all of Superman’s powers can’t do anything about. Dealing with the issues related to that, the Kent/Lane family face it the only way they can: “Head On.”
One of the things I have really enjoyed about Superman and Lois is that the show centers on the family. For a character like Superman, that’s a perfect choice.
the show focuses more on relationships and family than on superhero action, but, as with just about everything else they do, does it well. There are some interesting developments and revelations in “In Cold Blood.”
There’s a lot going on in “Uncontrollable Forces” and many subplots, most of which link up one way or another. I thoroughly enjoyed the episode, as I almost always do with this series, but it just seemed to go on longer than usual. Which I was fine with, it was great, but it’s an odd phenomenon I’ve notice from time to time.
With so many superheroes shows being cancelled, supposedly as a part of the big shakeups going on behind the scenes at DC Comics, it’s nice to see that some of them are still going strong. Superman and Lois, arguably a survivor of the Arrowverse (hey, that’s where these versions of the characters started) returns for a third season, and I’d say they’re off to a good start.
The second season of this fantastic show ends with “Waiting for Superman,” which will hopefully wrap up the Ally Alston saga, and resolve a few other issues. With this being a season finale, there will be some spoilers
Now, Ally Alston (a very obscure character in the comics) and her cult have managed to put two worlds in grave danger, and the Man of Steel seems to be out of action. Things are looking grim in “Worlds War Bizarre,” the episode before the season finale.
Superman and Lois is one of the best shows about superheroes I think I’ve ever seen, and this is a fantastic version of both Superman and Lois Lane.
The episode starts precisely where we left off, with Clark hovering and demonstrating a few of his powers for Lana, who is understandably stunned. Lana has a lot of questions, and we see a few flashbacks to various early portions of their lives.
Things reach a whole new level, and there’s a big change in the status quo, in “Truth and Consequences.” Once again, David Ramsey, best known to Arrowverse fans as John Diggle of Arrow, shows he’s a very talented director.
