Synopsis

A much more lavish version of the popular Superman television series which had first aired forty years earlier, Lois & Clark focused more on the Man of Steel's early adult years in Metropolis. With the unknowing help of Lois Lane, Clark Kent created Superman there in Metropolis after finding work at the world-famous Daily Planet newspaper, where he meets fellow reporter Lois Lane.

Supelice Dreadfully Boring
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
David del Real THE HAPPIEST SUPERMAN, THE BEST LOIS LANE AND ONE OF THE BEST METROPOLIS.Among the many versions we have seen of Superman along the years, the one that Mr. Dean Cain gave us in this series is by far the kindest and more humane Superman of all. As many people, I also enjoyed a lot the old movies with Mr. Christofer Reeve as the character, but that interpretation of the character misses one thing completely: fun. Mr. Cain gave us a more balanced character showing us a variety of emotions and delivered to us an entertaining show. Nevertheless, most of the badges in my review are for the character of Lois Lane, performed by Ms. Teri Hatcher. Why? She has made the only Lois Lane that has made us believe she is actually in love both of Superman and Clark. The other "Loises" love one and learn to put up with the other. In the Classic "Reeve" movies, Lois loves Superman and appreciates Clark and even shouts how sweet he is but does not love him when she doesn't know he is Superman (a Superhero in the Super-Friendzone!). Erica Durance (from Smallville) gave us good Lois Lane too, but technically, she couldn't love Superman, because Superman does not exist in the series until the very end. Another Lois Lanes, like in "Superman TAS" don't even like Kent much and are eager to express it. One of the best things in this show is that Lois falls in love with Clark before falling in love too with Superman!!!Now, one thing very important for me in the DC Universe is that heroes are very mentally, emotionally and historically related to the cities they live in. In the comics we clearly see that Batman is the right superhero for Gotham, Superman the right one for Metropolis, Wonder-Woman has the charisma to be a successful ambassador, Aquaman (depending on the year you are reading) has adventures where he has the warmth and kindness of a superhero and others where he has the rough personality of the Emperor of a very difficult nation. So, all that said, I think Lois and Clark's Metropolis is a good METROPOLIS: noisy, boisterous, full of gossips, activity, etc... exactly where the "Man of Steel" would go to be in the middle of the action!There are many good things about this show, including Ms. Tracy Scoggins as Cat Grant; being a fan of Ms. Scoggins myself, one of the few things I disliked of the show is that I would have liked to see her much more. Walter Lane Smith III singing Elvis in the corridor as Perry White is still one of the most remembered scenes of the series...and it will always be!!! And of course...each viewer has its favorite moments but I tried to focus my review in points and elements that were maybe overlooked in other reviews.Thanks for readingIMDb by David del Real.

Ilia Gofman Around 20 years ago and more recently (repeats), I've seen on TV a few episodes of Louis and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (1993). It seemed OK then. Recently I've decided to buy the full TV series from Amazon. As I've then started watching them without the adds interruptions, I thought from then on that it was much better than I remembered it and it's actually amazing. Every part of the filming of this series was done to an excellent standard. Absolutely all of the actors and in particular Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher, did a great job and made the series feel immersive, like it's actually happening. I just wana see more :) Looking at some other more modern series for comparison, in around 2016, like Arrow, Agents of shield, flash, legends of tomorrow etc. Louis & Clark would have blown them out of the water, if they would have only released their series now. P.S Dean Cain, Chyler Leigh and Mehcad Brooks actors are the main reason I bother watching the modern Supergirl 2015 series :)
Jackson Booth-Millard I remember seeing this on a number of occasions as it was always broadcast on BBC2 either midday or at around the same time as The Simpsons and Star Trek: Voyager, but I didn't watch very often. Basically this television series focuses almost more on the leading couple of the show, Clark Kent (Dean Cain) aka the greatest superhero on Earth and for Metropolis, the Man of Steel, Superman, and his love interest who works at the Daily Planet with him, Lois Lane (Teri Hatcher). So every episode we would see Lois and Clark either trying to get on with each other as colleagues, or slowly getting closer to each other, and of course some disaster occurring in the city in which Clark would don the blue suit and red cape to fly off and save the day, Lois sometimes might be a victim. Obviously it seems more apparent that Lois is in love with Superman much more than Clark himself, she almost completely ignores him, but she slowly develops feelings, and of course it was a near revolution when she finally found out his true identity (possibly recognising through the glasses). Also starring Eddie Jones as Jonathan Kent, K Callan as Martha Kent, Lane Smith as Perry White, Child's Play 3's Justin Whalin as Jimmy Olsen, John Shea as Lex Luthor, Michael Landes as Jimmy Olsen, Tracy Scoggins as Catherine 'Cat' Grant, Kenneth Kimmins as Dr. Bernard Klein, Tomorrow Never Dies' Tony Jay as Nigel St. John and Beverly Garland as Ellen Lane. Cain is good looking and nice, Hatcher is gorgeous and confident, and Shea when he was on was a cool villain, Cain and Hatcher together of course make a good on screen couple, awkward as Clark, close as Superman, and closer as the series went on, and the special effects to create disasters and Superman powers are good, overall it was a good fun romantic fantasy adventure show. It was nominated the Emmys for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Sound Mixing for a Drama Series (twice), Outstanding Individual Achievement in Costuming for a Series, Outstanding Individual Achievement in Directing in a Drama Series, and Outstanding Individual Achievement in Main Title Theme Music for Jay Gruska. Superman was number 72 on The 100 Greatest Pop Culuture Icons. Good!
