- ok
Didn't like the way it was made, i think it is a mockery of the character, some time some chapters are so stupid!!!!!, also the actor is a better clark than a superman, the executive producer is a woman, so most of the idea came from her, so that's explain why the serie is nothing compare to the movie, the comic books, this is a superman of her own imagination... buy i bouhgt it cause i collect superman movies...

- Great tv series :)
"Louis & Clark: the new adventures of Superman" is a tv series first aired in 1993, that lasted 4 seasons. That might be a relatively short time, but it was enough to make me a fan. If you are another fan of the series, you will understand what I'm talking about, and why this dvd is a very good purchase. If not, I will try to explain it to you.

I will start by telling you about the plot. Of course, this series is about Superman/Clark Kent (played by a very handsome Dean Cain) and his struggle to save the world from Lex Luthor (John Shea), while falling in love with Lois Lane (Teri Hatcher). It is highly likely that you are already bored by this premise, specially considering that you have probably already watched some "Superman" movies, and maybe even "Smallville" (the new tv series featuring a teen Superman). However, I think that "Louis & Clark: the new adventures of Superman" is worth your time, due to the fact that it is:

a) different to the movies and "Smallville".
b) engaging and funny, it starts well with the first season, and gets even better later.

All in all, I think that you should give this tv series a try. However, bear in mind that this dvd includes merely the episodes of the first season. From my point of view, that is barely enough to show you what the series is about: you will want more :)

John Shea co-stars as Lex Luthor...in a brilliant way. This season was the best of them all!

- ALOT BETTER THAN SMALLVILLE
LOIS AND CLARK THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN- THIS SHOW IS
A LOT BETTER THAN SMALLVILLE- BECAUSE LOIS LANE AND CLARK KENT
ARE BOTH WRITERS AND REPORTERS.THEY KNOW HOW TO GO OUT, TO HELP
PEOPLE TO GET STORY IDEAS. EVERY TIME WHEN CLARK SEES A SITUATION HE TURNS INTO SUPERMAN. I KNEW DEANCAIN FROM A EPISODE
OF LIFE GOES ON CORKY AND THE DOLPINNS. LOIS & CLARK HAD A GOOD
INFLUENCE ON ME BECAUSE FIRST I BECAME A REPORTER- WRITER AND NOW
AS A WRITER AND EDITOR FOR NEWS&VIEWS AND UPBEAT A MAGAZINE FOR AND BY PEOPLE WITH DOWN SYNDROME FOR THE N.D.S.S. THE NATIONAL DOWN SYNDROME SOCITEY. UP UP UP AND AWAY.

- It took me years to realize that this was a great show!
This show started when I was like 14 going on 15 and I never really got into it then. Even when TBS showed rerurns I never got that into it. I thought of it as just a lame soap opera that just focuses on the relationship of Lois and Clark. Now that I bought season 1 and 2, I see that it's much much more. When watching Smallvile, I used to think that it makes Lois and Clark look like [...] but it's really the other way around I realize now. I mean Smallvile, I realize now is what's really like a soap opera. When it has a chance to tell a great story, it just focuses on the Clark and Lana relationship when we've been taught a thousand times that they can never ever ever be together. So why keep showing us that ? We don't need any more proof. Now that it has a Clark, Lana and Lex love triangle it's even worse because it reminds me of the Dawson, Joey and Pacey love triangle in Dawson's Creek. So I now realize that Smallville is much more of a soap opera.

Lois and Clark has villians of the week like Smallville but the creators are a lot more creative. I mean we've seen how many villians in Smallvile who got their powers from kryptonite. They've used krpytonite for everything possible in Smallville. Kryptonite bullets, kryptonite drugs that Lana was on recently "rolls eyes lol". They've used krptonite for so much that in season 6 I predict that someone will try to kill Clark with krpytonie toilot paper...lol. Anyway in Lois and Clark they have bad guys who are a lot more clever and out smart Superman without...krpytonite.

The special effects maybe totally corny compared to Smallville's or even the original Superman movies but still if you can look passed that this show is a good time. It has a sense of humor and lets face it...Smallville needs more of a sense of humor sometimes. This show has a good cast too. I love the late great Lane Smith as Lois and Clark's boss Perry White who's obsessed with Elvis. He's possibly even my favorite Perry White. While John Shea (Mutant X) also steals the show as Lex Luther. I also liked Michael Landes (Final Destination 2) as Jimmy Olson in season 1 but he gets replaced by Justin Whalin (Dungeons and Dragons) in the following seasons. To me Landes was the better Olson, just my opinion lol.

I'm now watching season 2 and to me the show really picks up then. Although this season is pretty good, esecially the finale where Lois almost makes the mistake of marrying Lex Luther despite everyone telling her it's a huge mistake. Also Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher have chemestry and aren't always crying together and constantly talking about how they can't be together like...Clark and Lana in Smallville. Lets face it, that's about all we get from Clark and Lana. With all the times Clark has saved Lana with her knocked out so she can't see him use his powers. She would either be dead, in a coma or have a serious concussion lol. So thank you Smallville for making Lois and Clark look better and better. You keep showing me that the show was a lot more creative.
