Title: Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Marathon
Post by: addicted2dvd on July 13, 2009, 10:58:34 PM
Lois & Clark
The New Adventures of Superman
(http://www.invelos.com/mpimages/01/012569681446f.jpg)
Season 1:
Share the soaring adventure and romantic fun in this Deluxe 6-Disc DVD Set of 21 first-season episodes, including a Feature-Length Pilot and High-Flying Extras. As DAILY PLANET reporters CLARK KENT and LOIS LANE, Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher clash, cooperate and flirt while chasing the hottest stories in METROPOLIS. The hottest scoop of all is Lois's secret heartthrob, the superhero she doesn't know is Clark's alter ego.

Disc 1:

1. Pilot (9/12/93)
Mild-mannered Clark Kent arrives in Metropolis, becomes a reporter for the Daily Planet, and creates his secret Superman identity. His first challenge: stop Lex Luthor from sabotaging the Space Station.

My Thoughts:
This is a double length episode that started the series. I enjoyed every minute of this episode. It is a good introduction to the characters. I did find it strange that they had Lex Luthor with hair.... but that is ok... it didn't take away from the show for me. This season is the only one to have the character of Cat played by Tracy Scoggins.  I don't mind that she was in the only season... as Cat has always been my least favorite character of the series. I really enjoyed the scene where Martha Kent was making Clark's Superman outfit. Some of the costumes they came up for him was pretty funny... but there was actually one or two that I kinda liked. Of course not as much as the real costume... but cool for some newly made up superhero.  Another reason I really like this show... it focuses more on the lives of Lois and Clark... making Superman something Clark can do... not who he is.

2. Strange Visitor (From Another Planet) (9/26/93)
Superman discovers his roots. A phony warrant leads Clark to proof of his alien origin... and to a shadowy federal agent who wants Superman dead.

My Thoughts:
A very good episode to continue from the pilot movie. It had a great story. I really liked how they handled Clark finding out where he is from. It was only a short piece of the story... but it was done well. I did like the pilot movie a little better then this episode... but that could be because of the length. Where they had more time to tell the story then they did in this episode... which was maybe just ever so slightly rushed.

What I found interesting, were the different advertisement techniques for such a show.

The original title is "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman" but in Germany it's reversed: "Superman: Die Abenteuer von Lois & Clark" (and no "new" adventures, just adventures).

I always liked the original title better, as it shows, that Lois & Clark are the focus of the show, not Superman. The "new" alludes to the old George Reeves Superman series "The Adventures of Superman". I don't know if that show even aired in Germany, so the play on "The (New) Adventures of Superman" probably wouldn't have worked here.

While that is interesting... I agree with Tom. The original title is much better for the series. As Lois and Clark was more the center of the story.

I have all 6 seasons of the George Reeves Superman too... may have to do a marathon of that series sometime soon too!

I recall that they altered the costume just a bit from the pilot to the other episodes...his "S" emblem got about 5 times bigger (well, 2 times at least) and his first costume looked like it was made of cloth while his costume after that looked almost like it was made of rubber...very slick-looking.  Not that I'm complaining...  :laugh:

Yes, I agree. I assume they changed the title, because they (the marketing guys) assumed that "Superman" has a much higher associative power than "Lois & Clark" (everybody has heard of Superman, even my granny, but I very much doubt that she has a clue who Clark Kent is).

I never really noticed the size of the S before... but I did notice how the cape connects to the suit has changed.

3. Neverending Battle (10/3/93)
To test just how strong and fast Superman is, Lex Luthor masterminds a series of emergencies around Metropolis to assess the Man of Steel in action.

My Thoughts:
A good episode. In this episode they really added to the comedic levels. I loved how Clark knocked Lois down a peg or 2 after she stole his story.

4. I'm Looking Through You (10/10/93)
A nerdy scientist who's invented invisibility suits becomes the unseen Robin Hood of Metropolis. Then crooks swipe some suits, steal from the rich...and keep the loot.

My Thoughts:
An entertaining episode... if not a little on the silly side. In this episode one of the guest stars is Leslie Jordan. I had to look that name up as it is one of those deals where I know him so well when I see him... but had no idea who he is. One of those faces that shows up all over the place.

5. Requiem for a Superhero (10/17/93)
Cyborgs vs. Superman. Lois and Clark go after a heavyweight story: corrupt fight promoters with a stable of bionic boxers. (And the doctor who created the humanoid machines for Lois's father!)

My Thoughts:
This is a very good episode. It is one of my favorites. I really enjoyed the story. I much more serious one compared to the last couple episodes. Though it did still have some laughs in it. I loved the scene with Superman in the boxing ring.  Especially since he had to hold back against the guy as Clark Kent.

6. I've Got a Crush on You (10/24/93)
Dressed in feathers, Lois goes onstage to investigate a series of nightclub arsons. But she's upstaged by the new bartender: Clark, who's determined to get the story and ice the arsonists.

My Thoughts:
While ok... this has never been a favorite episode of mine. Not that Lois didn't look great in it... but I could have went without the whole nightclub scene...and never been much for organized crime stories. Which of course is a big part (basically all) of the storyline.

6. I've Got a Crush on You
Pete's Thoughts:
While ok... this has never been a favorite episode of mine.

It has always been a favorite of mine. I like the way Clark (once again) basically puts Lois in her place (ratting her out if I recall correctly)

Lois and Clark has always been one of my favorite TV shows. I love the chemistry between the two of them. IMO Dean Cain is a the best Clark Kent / Superman of any of them. The supporting cast is great as well. Perry White is perfect! The Mom and Dad are great (love the phone calls where they each pick up  :laugh: ). The only issue I had was with Jimmy Olson in S1... and they do a good job remedying that situation in S2

Great marathon Pete. Enjoying your take so far.  :thundergod:

I don't know if it's true but I heard they replaced the first Jimmy Olsen in this series because they decided he looked too much like Clark.  Of course, in the comic books, Jimmy always had red hair but they never had a Jimmy with red hair in the TV shows or in the movies.  Another person I liked in the series was Tracy Scoggins (I liked her before the series ever started) but they never really had anything for her to do so I wasn't surprised when the actress left the show after season 1.
Title: Re: Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Marathon
Post by: addicted2dvd on July 15, 2009, 05:07:18 PM
I heard the same thing about the reason they replaced Jimmy. I think I mentioned earlier that I didn't care for Tracy Scoggins on this show... so I didn't mind at all that she was gone the next season.

7. Smart Kids (10/31/93)
With financial support from Lex Luthor, a mad scientist gives orphans an intelligence-boosting potion. But the kids escape...and use their cerebral powers to disrupt Metropolis.

My Thoughts:
This is a fun episode. I enjoyed watching the kids seeing how much stuff they could get into. And I especially enjoyed what turned out to be a prank on Lex Luther towards the end. I remember when I originally watched this episode that I would have liked to see a follow-up episode with these kids... as even at the end of the episode they still half-heartedly believed Clark was Superman.

8. The Green, Green Glow of Home (11/14/93)
Lois and Clark investigate a suspicious EPA story in Smallville. But it isn't man-made toxins the feds are after - but a chunk of Kryptonite, the substance that can rob Superman of his powers or even his life.

My Thoughts:
This is an excellent episode. It is the first time we get to see Kryptonite in the series... and the second (and final) appearance of Trask... the government agent that was obsessed with killing Superman. Not only is it a great action-packed story... it is also a fun one what with Lois out of her element and in Smallville with Clark. I got a kick out of when she told Clark to look at that man (unknowingly pointing to his father) and saying he is probably a cross dresser.

9. The Man of Steel Bars (11/21/93)
When Metropolis suffers a freak heat wave in the middle of winter, citizens blame Superman's powers. He decides to leave the city in order to save it...and leaves Lois to investigate the real heat source.

My Thoughts:
A good episode... I got a few chuckles out of seeing Superman being arrested and put into jail. Especially thought the guy picking on (slapping him, pulling on his cape) him in jail and how that ended was fun. We all know when it comes to Superman you have to suspend all disbelief. But sometime that is hard to do. Especially on episodes like this one where Superman and Clark decides to leave Metropolis at the exact same time... yet still no one can put it together.

one of my favorite scenes (season 2)

Lois: If you wanna kill Superman, I don't know why you're going to Smallville or 1966.
Tempus: She doesn't know yet. Oh, this is good. This is really good. Um, Lois, did you know that, in the future, you're revered at the same level as Superman? Why there are books about you, statues, an interactive game. You're even a breakfast cereal.
Lois: Really?
Tempus: Yes. But, as much as everybody loves you, there is one question that keeps coming up: "How dumb was she?" Here, I'll show you what I mean. Look
[puts glasses on]
Tempus: , I'm Clark Kent.
[Takes glasses off]
Tempus: No, I'm Superman.
[Puts glasses on]
Tempus: Mild-mannered reporter.
[Takes glasses off]
Tempus: Superhero. Hello! Duh! Clark Kent is Superman. Ha, ha, ha. Well, that was worth the whole trip. To actually meet the most galactically stupid woman who ever lived.

10. Pheromone, My Lovely (11/28/93)
A scheming chemist douses the Daily Planet staff with attraction-inducing perfume. The results: Jimmy pursues a model, Perry White falls for the cleaning woman, and Lois has the hots for Clark.

My Thoughts:
I have definitely seen better... but it is a decent episode. If nothing else the scenes of Lois in love with Clark was fun to watch. Not sure I would be strong enough to not take advantage of a hot woman like that throwing herself at me.

If I recall correctly the episode also gave Clark the upper hand in their "relationship". In order for the potion to work there had to be some initial attraction, Lois had it for Clark but seemingly Clark was not attracted to Lois. Good stuff!

11. Honeymoon in Metropolis (12/12/93)
Lois and Clark check into the honeymoon suite. No, it's not what you think. They're undercover, on the trail of a crooked Congressman and international arms dealer who threaten national security.

My Thoughts:
A good episode. I have seen better... but it has some funb scenes in it. I enjoyed the scenes of Lois and Clark undercover in the Honeymoon Suite of the hotel. Especially the phone call between Clark and his parents gave me a few chuckles.

12. All Shook Up (1/2/94)
When Superman zooms into outer space to destroy an asteroid hurtling toward Earth, he gets a jolt and amnesia. Can he regain his memory and try again before a fragment of the asteroid strikes our planet?

My Thoughts:
This is a great episode. One of my all-time favorites. If I am not mistaken this is actually a remake of an episode of Adventures of Superman with George Reeves. I remember there is at least a similar episode anyway.

You're right about All Shook Up being a remake of an episode of The Adventures of Superman.  That episode is "Panic In The Sky" and was in the 2nd season of the old show...so you should go and watch it now.  :thumbup:

13. Witness (1/8/94)
What a scoop! An eccentric scientist is killed, and Lois is the only witness. But the murderer is determined that Lois won't live long enough to file her story.

My Thoughts:
A good episode. But not a favorite. Just a basic one.I have been enjoying seeing the relationship of Lois and Clark grow... especially over the last few episodes. And I also enjoyed watching Lois kick a little butt in this episode. While she isn't great at protecting herself... she isn't exactly helpless either.

Can Superman pull a rescue out of a hat? A kidnapper skilled in magic abducts children and demands ransom from their wealthy parents. Superman's on the job, until the magician hypnotizes the Man of Steel into believe wrong is right.

My Thoughts:
This is a good episode... but not one of my favorites. I don't think it should have been that easy to hypnotize Superman.

15. The Ides of Metropolis (2/6/94)
Houseguests. Lois shares her apartment with a fugitive convicted murderer she believes is innocent. And Clark has a new roomie: Jonathan, who fears Martha is having an affair with a younger man.

My Thoughts:
A good episode... but again not a favorite.I liked the storyline with the virus and all... but I didn't care for the detective in this episode. I don't know what it is... but something about her that just bugs me.

17. The Rival (2/27/93)
Suddenly The Metropolis Star is scooping the Daily Planet, and Star reporter Linda King is scooping her old rival in love and work, Lois Lane. While Lois has an emotional meltdown, Clark investigates how the Star always gets the story first.

My Thoughts:
This is another episode I really enjoyed. It is just a fun episode all around. I loved how insane with jealousy Lois got. And I had to laugh when Lois found Perry in Clarks closet and even for a brief minute thought... uh... it wasn't exactly work related.

18. Vatman (3/13/94)
Superman discovers there's a powerful new villain in town: Superman! Lex Luthor develops a Superman clone with all his powers and just one goal: destroy the real Man of Steel.

My Thoughts:
This is a fun episode... but there was something about the way that Dean Cain played being child-like that I didn't much care for. I did like the storyline itself though.

19. Fly Hard (3/27/94)
No escape! The suspense mounts when terrorists take the Daily Planet crew plus Lex hostage. Clark can't use his super powers without revealing his identity...or putting the others in danger.

My Thoughts:
I really like this episode for the most part. The only thing I didn't really care for is the flash back footage in black and white with the regular cast portraying the people in the flashback. While I can see how some find such a thing entertaining it is something that I never cared for in any show for some reason.

20. Barbarians at the Planet (5/1/94)
At least she doesn't have to change the monagram on her towels. Lois agrees to be Lex Luthor's bride after the evil genius buys the Daily Planet...and even after Clark declares his love for her.

My thoughts:
This is the first part of the 2-part season finale. Very good episode. I enjoyed every minute of it.

21. The House of Luthor (5/8/94)
While Lois plans for the Big Day, Clark, Perry, Jimmy and Jack use their investigative skills to find out what really caused the explosion at the Daily Planet.

My Thoughts:
The end of the season was very well done. I do remember the first time I watched this (When it originally aired) that I couldn't believe the outcome of Lex Luthor.

My Thoughts on Season 1:
Over-all this is a great start to an awesome series. It has been a lot of fun revisiting this season. The show has a great cast... I couldn't imagine anyone else doing better in the roles. I really like how this show is more about the lives of Lois & Clark... and that Superman is more like just something Clark can do. The DVD release is done very nicely with a decent amount of extras. The only real drawback I have about this set is that I hate the packaging. I never liked it when they over-lap the discs in a digipak. But that is what they decided to do... not only with this season... but the entire series.

It can't be worse than the one for Sliders. It's cheap, you are always affraid to scratch or stain the disc, it's hard to close and it looks ugly with the other dvds in my dvd wallcase. And don't make me start with the Buck Rodgers set, everytime I take one of the disc a risk of breaking it is always present because the release snap plastic in the midle doesn't work.

Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman: Season 2
He catches bullets in his hand, snatches innocent citizens from the jaws of death, and zooms bombs, toxic chemicals and other deadly whatnot deep into outer space. But just when you think nothing can overwhelm Superman, love brings him to his knees.

Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher are back for the thrilling second season of new adventures. Action reigns as the Man of Steel unleashes chop-'til-you-drop martial arts moves to battle a mysterious Chi master, pits his mighty powers against the firepower of resurrected '30s mobster Al Capone, and mows down a perp walk of twisted-genius bad guys who challenge him with a lethal array of threats, theft, murder and mayhem. Super hero. Super action. You've got 'em both.

1. Madame Ex (9/18/94)
Lex Luthor is ended...but the malady lingers on. His vengeful ex-wife uses psychology, plastic surgery and Kryptonite! - in a devious plat to vanquish Lois Lane and Clark Kent.

My Thoughts:
A Good start to the new season... but it could have been better. It was only mildly entertaining. I did like that Denise Crosby had a minor roll in this episode. I have always liked her... since I seen her in the first season of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

2. Wall of Sound (9/25/94)
A crook develops a sonic weapon that stuns citizens into slumberland. He even has a special frequency for Superman. Will Superman triumph, or is it time to say good night to the Man of Steel.

My Thoughts:
This is pretty much an average episode. There is really nothing here that is all that special. It is a good idea for a story... but I don't know... just feels like it could have been better.

3. The Source (10/2/94)
A timid technogeek blows the whistle on corporate corruption. Lois gets the story, then gets a bad case of the guilts when she can't protect the whistleblower from corporate goons.

My Thoughts:
This one is a good episode. They had a lot going on in it... especially considering it is a normal length episode. I enjoyed it quite a bit.

4. The Prankster (10/9/94)
'Tis better to give than to receive. Lois accepts a series of booby-trapped gifts. The sender: an evil genius who spent five years in prisone, compliments of Lois' investigative reporting.

My Thoughts:
This one is a very good episode. I enjoyed every minute of it. Not only is it a good story it has a lot of laughs as well. This one has Bronson Pinchot guest starring as The Prankster... and I thought he did a great job with it.

5. Church of Metropolis (10/23/94)
Let us prey. Entrepreneur Bill Church hires local thugs to terrorize good neighborhoods so he can scoop up bargain-priced real estate as sites for his discount stores.

My Thoughts:
This is the episode that introduces Intergang. I always had mixed feelings on the Intergang storyline since I never cared much for stories involving organized crime. But at the same time the stories have always been pretty good... and I like Peter Boyle as Bill Church.

6. Operation Blackout (10/30/94)
Where were you when the lights went out? A citywide blackout has Lois and Clark hunting for a culprit(and a motive) while the rest of the Daily Planet staff scrambles to publish sans technology.

My Thoughts:
This one is an entertaining... but somewhat average episode. I will admit it wass fun to watch Lois go through technology withdraws.

7. That Old Gang of Mine (11/13/94)
Scarface vs. Superman! A misguided scientist manipulates DNA to regenerate 1930s gangsters, including Al Capone - who decides he'd like to run Metropolis the way he did Chicago.

My Thoughts:
I normally do not care for anything with gangsters and such. But this is an exception... as I really enjoyed this episode. I must admit... I got a bit of a chuckle out of Clark falling asleep in the car at the end of the episode while Lois told him how she feels about him.

8. A Bolt from the Blue (11/20/94)
A lightning strike gives a dumpy sad sack the same abilities Superman possesses. Garbed in a red suit and blue cape, the newly empowered Resplendent Man goes into the superhero biz - for a price.

My Thoughts:
This episode is a lot of fun. I enjoyed every minute of it. Plus it had a few recognizable faces. First there is Denise Crosby playing the doctor once again. This time a much larger part. Then there is Cindy Williams (Laverne and Shirley) As well as I forget his name... but he played the scientist that created the invisibility suit in season 1. This time he plays the guy that get's Superman's abilities.

9. Season's Greedings (12/4/94)
God Rest Ye, Greedy Gentlemen. A fired, embittered toy maker devises a sinister toy that turns Metropolis's generous citizens into childish, gasping gift-grubbers just in time for Christmas.

My Thoughts:
Now this is a very good Christmas episode. Not only does it have a fun story... I really laghed at the gang acting like greedy children. But there is a load of familiar faces in it as well. There is Dick Van Patten who runs the orphanage. Denise Richards as a love intrest for Jimmy. And of course Isabelle Sanford and & Sherman Hemsley as the toy maker and his assistant.

10. Metallo (1/1/95)
Scientists turn Lucy Lane's new boyfriend, a loses with a rap sheet, into a cyborg criminal. This looks like a job for Superman - except the cyborg is powered by Kryptonite!

Hmmm... what did I think of Metallo? It was good... but not great. While entertaining it really was pretty average. If I am not mistaken... they got a different actress here to play Lios' sister Lucy in this episode.

Superman, master of martial arts.A mysterious Chi warrior steals Perry White's life savings, which leads Lois and Clark into a confrontation with a corporation that exploits Chinese immigrants.

This is a very good episode that guest stars Racquel Welch as the reporter that discover's that Clark is Superman. Lois and Clark is still dancing around whether or not they should take their relation to the next level. I forgot how long it took for those 2 to get together. And that isn't even including the troubles they had getting to their wedding.

The Prankster and the president. Armed with a ray that temporarily freezes people, the Prankster breaks out of jail. His diabolical goal: kidnap the president and hold him for ransom.

Jimmy is arrested for murder, Superman is accused of stealing nuclear warheads and as assistant DA discovers Clark Kent's secret identity. But here's the big news: Lois and Clark share a first date...and a first kiss!

My Thoughts:
This is a real good episode that a lot happens on. It was pretty fun watching Lois and Clark deal with their first date. Before watching this episode again I had forgotten not only how Assistant DA Drake found out that Clark being Superman... but also that this episode ends in those 3 oh so famous words...

18. Tempus Fugitive (3/26/95)
H.G. Wells drops in - via his time machine - and gives Lois and Clark a glimpse of a surprising world to come. Then they race to the past to save baby Superman from a deadly fugitive from the future.

My Thoughts:
This is a great episode. Talk about fun! I enjoyed every minute of it... but I especially enjoyed Tempus' who routine of telling Lois how galatically stupid she is... and that Clark is Superman.

19. Target: Jimmy Olsen! (4/2/95)
The most dangerous man in Metropolis is Jimmy Olsen? Injected with a synthetic virus when he was an infant, Jimmy comes under the power of evildoers who transform him into a mind-controlled assassin.

My Thoughts:
Not bad... it is an enjoyable episode. I really liked the character of Sarah who was also injected with the synthetic virus. I thought she made a good companion for Jimmy. Unfortunately if I remember correctly we don't see her again. This is the second episode with Scardino... and nope... still don't like that guy.

Well... yeah I know.. but it is more then storyline. It is kinda like how I feel about the guy that played Cole on Charmed. I never liked that guy either... not in anything I ever seen him in. I seen this guy (Jim something... forget his name now) guest start in a handful of different shows... and there is just something about him I didn't care for.

20. Individual Responsibility (4/16/95)
Intergang kidnaps Perry White and is about to purchase the Daily Planet. But all Superman can manage is a bored ho-hum - newly discovered red kryptonite has sapped the Man of Steel's steely resolve.

My Thoughts:
This is a good episode... definitely enjoyed it. And finally got to see another type of Kryptonite! I also liked that they had Bruce Campbell in this one guest starring as the new head of Intergang.

21. Whine, Whine, Whine (5/14/95)
Being a superhero seems like a poor career choice when Superman is sued by a man he saved. Lois is drawn to Agent Scardino because Clark keeps disappearing on their dates.

My Thoughts:
Another good episode. And I believe the last episode that has Scardino in it. In this episode Lois makes her decision. And we also get to see Bruce Campbell once again.

22. And the Answer Is... (5/21/95)
A criminal kidnaps Jonathan and Martha and Lois risks her life to save them. In the aftermath of the ordeal, Clark realizes how much he loves Lois and finally asks "Will you marry me?"

My Thoughts:
This is a very good season ender. And it has a heck of a cliff hanger. In this episode Clark finds out just how important it is for him to have his secret identity. But it also shows him just how important Lois is to him as well.

Over-All Season Thoughts:
Over-all the second season is very good. I have really enjoyed revisiting it. The show has kept my attention from start to finish... just as much as it did the very first time I watched it. That is probably because it has been so long since I watched this show that I forgot half of what happened in it.

Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman: Season 3
Wedding planning puts a strain on any couple. Lois and Clark aren't just any couple. Besides coping with caterers and orange blossoms, they must battle mad scientists, LEX LUTHOR, revived World War II Nazis and other diabolical foes. Which means Lois and Clark face one tough (and action-packed!) trip to the altar.

'The Daily Planet's' ace reporters team for exciting adventure and winning romance in 22 episodes that blew fans and critics away. "'Lois & Clark' has shown renewed superstrength in its third season...by breaking one of the oldest rules in the SUPERMAN canon: Superman has not merely revealed to LOIS LANE his secret identity as CLARK KENT, but he's also become engaged to her! Messing with the Superman myth is one thing; doing it so well is a shock" (Ken Tucker, 'Entertainment Weekly'). Prepare to be shocked...and thrilled!


1. WE HAVE A LOT TO TALK ABOUT
Clark's marriage proposal dosen't get quite the response he hoped for. Lois is glad, sad...and mad!

My Thoughts:
No a bad episode... was pretty good. But I did find myself expecting a little more from the first episode of a season. Not much for this new head of Intergang. She is basically a smart ditz. She has the smarts to do what she wants... but rather use her being hot (if you like the plastic barbie doll type... I do not.) body to help her take advantage of everything.

2. ORDINARY PEOPLE
Great body - he'll take it! a deranged millionaire thinks his head would look great on Superman's physique.

My Thoughts:
This has never been a favorite episode of mine. OK at best... but nothing special about it.

3. CONTACT
Save the relationship or save the girl? When their romance endangers Lois, heartbroken Clark breaks up with her.

My Thoughts:
This one is a bit better then the previous one. But yet again it didn't do much for me. And I have to say... I do not care for Lois with short hair.

4. WHEN IRISH EYES ARE KILLING
Lover, come back. Lois uses an old beau to respark the flame with Clark. But the beau is using Lois, too.

My Thoughts:
Another episode that while not bad... I really couldn't get into. It just felt like this episode served little purpose other then being space filler. This finishes off the first disc... and I wasn't thrilled with any on this disc. But now that I think about it... I do thing that maybe season 3 was my least favorite season of the series.

5. JUST SAY NOAH
THE DAILY PLANET's top reporters go undercover as Mr. and Mrs. to investigate a mysterious institute of love.

My Thoughts:
OK... this is more like it. Sure this is a silly episode... but it is also a lot of fun. While watching this I was wondering why the guy that played Smiley looked so familiar to me. And when I looked him up I found out why. I just recently watched him in one of the Dukes of Hazzard reunion movies.

6. DON'T TUG ON SUPERMAN'S CAPE
Superman, objet d'art. A wealthy Metropolis couple wants to add Superman to their collection of rarities.

My Thoughts:
This is a fun episode... if not silly at times. Some of the dream and fantasy scenes were a little silly at times. But I still enjoyed them. It started with Clark dream he and Lois was Lucy and Ricky from I Love Lucy (best clip of them all!) then there was fantasies of both James Bond and Dragnet. This episode also has a guest star of Jonathan Frakes (Star Trek: TNG).

7. ULTRA WOMAN
Scheming sisters zap Superman with red kryptonite, but the plot goes haywire when his powers transfer to Lois.

My Thoughts:
This episode I always liked a lot. And no not ONLY because of Lois in a Superhero costume. I also thought this was a fun storyline. This episode also had a couple of familiar guest stars. Of course there is Shelley Long. But there was also Mary Gross (Mrs. Quick on Sabrina, The Teenage Witch).

Lois dead? Clark engaged to his hometown sweetheart? An alternate reality seems all too real to Lois.

I always loved Lois's looks in this episode. Her hair looks good again (really cute), if I remember correctly. And the white t-shirt  :drooling:. The scene where she makes up again with Clark always was one of my favorite moments in this series.

15. I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU...
Lois and Clark get married! Just a minute, Clark. Are you sure your beautiful bride really is Lois?

My Thoughts:
This is the start of the clones/frogs storyline. Which is one of the storylines I never cared for too much. I know they were just trying to throw more problems in front of Lois and Clark's wedding... but I just found this storyline silly. Though I did like Brad Garret as Lois and Clark's wannabe comedian priest.

Send in the clones. While LEX LUTHOR woos the real Lois, Clark spends his wedding night with her clone.

Part 2 of the above episode. And added to the clone storyline we get the amnesia storyline. Which I also never cared much for. All these never ending problems is the reason this season is my least favorite of the series.

21. THROUGH A GLASS, DARKLY
The Krypton connection. Alien vistors with a secret objective create chaos for superman.

My Thoughts:
This is the first part of a 2 part seasons finale. And this is much... much better. Even though I was disappointed in this season for the most part... at least lit is ending on a very high note. This episode has a guest star of Justine Bateman... who played Malory on Family Ties.

22. BIG GIRLS DON'T FLY
Destiny. Krypton is in peril, but to save his home planet Superman must forsake friends, family - and Lois.

My Thoughts:
I really enjoyed the two-part season finale this season. Matter of fact after watching these I remembered when they originally aired it was this 2-part episode that gave me hope for season 4... as I felt the show went down hill so bad this season.

My Season 3 Thoughts:
While this season still had some decent episodes... for the most part I was disappointed. Too many storylines that I just didn't care for. But towards the end of the season it really picked back up and once again became the series that I knew and loved.

I didn't like the frog eating clone thing that well either...I was greatly annoyed by all the things done to keep Lois and Clark apart.  I wasn't overly fond of Lois's short hair either.

Yeah... the frog eating clones is the one that bothered me the most. The amnesia storyline pretty much sucked at the beginning... but then got better towards the end once she got better and was in that hospital place. But I did like the whole going away to help save New Krypton storyline.

As for Lois' hair... while I still didn't care much for it... it did grow on me a little towards the end.

Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman: Season 4
LOIS LANE and CLARK KENT saved the best for last. In their final season, they finally get married. There are a few roadblocks along the highway to marital bliss: a worlds-at-war battle with Lord Nor; an adventure-packed encounter with the Wedding Destroyer, who believes folks are better dead than wed; and even wedding-night interruptus compliments of time-traveling H.G. Wells. But before or after the shoes and rice, all 22 fourth-season episodes zing with Lois & Clark's action/comedy blend. A multitude of baddies - ghosts, aliens, deranged scientists and bizarre criminal geniuses - power up the excitement. A multitude of guest stars - Drew Carey, Harry Anderson, Delta Burke and more - power up the laughs. Time to fly... and say goodbye!


1. LORD OF THE FLYS
A world without Superman. Clark leaves Earth to rule New KRYPTON... and Lord Nor arrives to institute a reign of terror.

My Thoughts:
This is a very good start to the final season of Lois and Clark. Clark comes back to earth when he finds out that Lord Nor has come to take over the world... starting with Smallville. It is part 1 of a 2 part episode.

2. BATTLEGROUND EARTH
The world's military gives Superman Just 48 hours to defeat Lord Nor, or they'll take on the "wacko Martian" themselves.

My Thoughts:
This is a good conclusion to the Kryptonian storyline... and the last episode to guest star Justine Bateman as Zara.

3. SWEAR TO GOD, THIS TIME WE'RE NOT KIDDING
They're getting married. Really. Unless the nutty Wedding Destroyer breaks out of confinement to break up the nuptials.

My Thoughts:
And we finally make it to Lois and Clark's wedding. An enjoyable... but somewhat silly episode that guest stars Delta Burke as the Wedding Destroyer... as well as David Doyle (Bosley on Charlie's Angels).

4. SOUL MATES
It's Lois and Clark's wedding night, the newlyweds are in a clinch... and H.G. Wells pops up with connubiality-busting news.

My Thoughts:
This is another good time travel episode. This time traveling to a couple different times as we learn that Lois and Clark has been in love through-out time. I really enjoyed this episode... as I have all the episodes with Tempus and H.G. Wells.

5. BRUTAL YOUTH
Jimmy's boyhood pal comes staggering into the newsroom - white-haired, wrinkled and old.

My Thoughts:
This is a fun episode. For more then one reason. I enjoyed the storyline. Especially seeing Lois panic about her mortality. Seeing and old Lois with a still young Superman was pretty comical. I also liked that they had the guest star of Jack Larson playing the old version of Jimmy Olsen. For those of you that don't know that name. His is the guy that played Jimmy Olsen in the Adventures of Superman starring George Reeves. So it was cool seeing him reprive that role (well some what) after all these years.

6. THE PEOPLE VS. LOIS LANE
The D.A. has an airtight case against a suspected killer; the crime and film and a city full of eyewitnesses. The accused: Lois Lane.

This is a very good 2 part episode. Enjoyed it quite a bit.

7. DEAD LOIS WALKING
Will Lois get the chair? Not with Superman around! One prison break later, Lois and Clark hunt for the real killer.

My Thoughts:
While a very good conclusion... I think I liked the first part a little more. I didn't care much for how Lois looked in that wig she wore in a couple of the scenes in this episode.

8. BOB AND CAROL AND LOIS AND CLARK
Lois and Clark's new best buddies Bob and Carol seem too good to be true. And they are: Bob is the cold-blooded assassin Deathstroke.

My Thoughts:
This one is enjoyable... but really no more then a filler episode. I thought it was kinda funny to have Deathstroke use the same glasses technique for a secret identity as Clark does... but over all while enjoyable I think it could have been better. Some of the acting by the guest stars was a little on the stiff side.

9. GHOSTS
A-haunting we will go. A plus-sized ghost decides she'll take Lois' body.... and Lois' husband, too.

10. STOP THE PRESSES
Perry's promoted, and the new editor of the DAILY PLANET is... Lois! Think Clark will get along with his new boss?

11. TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE MXYMAS
Christmas again? Where did the time go? MR. MXYZPTLK, on imp from the fifth dimenssion, makes every day Santa's day.

My Thoughts:
This is probably my favorite of the 3 Christmas episodes in the series. I thought that Howi Mandel did a very good job as Mr. Mxyzptlk. And I enjoyed the storyline... was like a Christmas version of the movie Groundhog Day.

12. LETHAL WEAPON
Daddy's boys. Perry's ex-con son and Mr. Godget's cop son bring their own brands of evildoing to Metropolis.

My Thoughts:
This is a good episode... in it we once again see Red Kryptonite. We also meet one of Perry's sons in this one. Even though this is a good episode... it is also a pretty standard one.

13. SEX, LIES AND VIDEOTAPE
Photo finish? A cuddy shot of Superman with a married woman (Lois!) destroys the MAN OF STEEL's wholesome image.

Dirty politics gets a new layer of slime when fugitive-from-the-future Tempus runs for president.

15. LOIS AND CLARKS
One Tempus, one H.G. Wells, two Clark Kents. add them up and you have time-warp adventure aplenty.

My Thoughts:
A very good conclusion to the last episode. And good to see the character of H.G. Wells in it to come help Lois and Clark. I thought they did a good job bringing the alternate universe's Clark over... but it did almost feel... I don't know... just not quite right on how Clark's parents took the news and accepted him. You would think there should have been plenty of tension there... and that just didn't come through in the episode. But it didn't take away from the story too much.

Hmm: Leslie Luckabee - L.L. - LEX LUTHOR?! Is Luckabee Lex's son? And does he want what Daddy wanted: Superman dead and Lois as his bride?

My Thoughts:
While not bad... I still don't care too much for the current storyline... though I do find it interesting after all this time that Lex Luthor has been gone they still found ways to make him be the cause of problems for Superman. The side story of the shadow guy was never a favorite of mine either.

22. THE FAMILY HOUR
The final Lois & Clark episode includes a real surprise. It's not that. Nope, not that either. You'll have to watch and find out!

My Thoughts:
As a stand alone episode this is a good, entertaining episode. But as a series finale I would have preferred something more. I don't know exactly what... but some big way to send the series off. Instead they gave us a normal episode plus just a surprise ending that left you wanting and expecting a bit more. I mean they gave you a good idea where they were going with the storyline... but just felt like it needed more closure. Maybe if they made it a 2 hour finale instead of a normal episode it would have been better.

Season 4 Thoughts:
After a mediocre season 3 they brought the series back up to a very good show. So much so that I would have liked to have seen at least one more season. This is one time I am glad I didn't give up on a show after it looked like it was going down hill. Definitely worth every cent I paid to get the entire series on DVD.
