FIRST TIME WATCHING *SUPERMAN & LOIS* Episode 1 Reaction

[@Magnanimous-007]

This show is peak the CGI is great the acting is amazing and tyler plays the character perfectly

[@AGRA-l9f]

fr I just wish the flash had the same CGI level it would've made it so much better

[@DaikhanYT]

@@AGRA-l9f The budget has to be divided upon more and more cast so the budget for CGI and to afford greater companies is just not a thing anymore.

@@DaikhanYT yeah ur right but still the flash would've looked so fucking clean with this CGI

even when he's angry or pissed he doesn't seem like a different character and just seems like clark is angry or pissed

[@jackcrofts-mullin461]

Jonathan Kent’s death by a heart attack is always the best and impactful version to me. It’s serves as an important lesson for Superman; that for all his powers and abilities, he’s not a God and he can’t save everyone

[@rickflag1424]

absolutely, miss me with that snyder bs

[@gaz-l621]

Spot on. I generally prefer when both Ma and Pa Kent are alive, as I like the dynamic plus 2 living parents contrasts nicely with Batman (0) and Wonder Woman (1, usually, although some recent versions have given Hippolyta a wife)

[@Arashi257]

I absolutely agree with this. Though I loved Man of Steel, I did not like how Jonathan died, like Clark literally could have run normally to the dog himself and gotten back to them at the same speed a normal human would, and no one would've even noticed if he used his powers a bit due to how crazy the weather was.

[@peterscottmorgan1]

100% this. It's where Clark learns that there is a limit to what he can do. As Christopher Reeve said in the original movie, "All those powers... and I couldn't even save him."

[@albertmas3752]

But he will keep trying to save everyone because he is Superman.

[@JJeter-qi7ez]

Smallvlle is fucking goated and without that we likely wouldnt have the arrowverse.

The fact that this whenever a show season drops it’s always ranked the highest from start to finish on the CW. It also won and got nominated for a bunch of rewards.

[@jbomber4416]

smallville is insanely good and is about clark in high school discovering his powers and his history and its rly well done. it was also perfectly timed cause ep 1 aired like a few days after 9/11 happened and they werent sure if it'd be appropriate to air or not but they did and it was a huge success

This is one of my favourite shows of all time. It’s the best Superman adaptation since Christopher Reeve in 1978. Please keep watching Don!

[@nicolaskaito4769]

Smallville is a great show that start it all. It is more about discovery of clark abilities and his school years for the first 4 seasons i think

[@LeeB41]

Superman and Lois in an incredible show. It still has lots of action in it. Please keep watching it.

[@eseschannel12]

This show will talk a bit about crisis on infinite earths. A 5 episode crossover that included arrow, supergirl, the flash, legends of Tomorrow, and batwoman. Without spoiling anything you will need to at least know the basic things from the crossover. You need to know that the multiverse was destroyed and then remade by the spectre. The mystery character left his universe seconds before the anti matter wave killed him. You will see it later in this season.

[@CarlosHuiskens]

Without spoiling anything Proceeds to spoil stuff.

[@Ramp4ge]

But they retconned that so it doesn’t matter now. S&L is their own universe now

[@andrewfera5414]

@@CarlosHuiskens I don't think spoilers are Don's biggest priority, considering he started with Flash, is 2-3 seasons behind on Arrow, and skipped Supergirl, Legends, Batwoman, and Black Lightning just to get to Superman and Lois. lol

[@sarathomas8499]

No, because they stated that this Superman is it's own universe. Plus in season 2, I think it was, they clarified that by the general saying "even though your dad is the only one we have on this world...."

[@CarlosHuiskens]

@@sarathomas8499 Superman being in it's own universe is a retcon though. The show was never intended to be set in it's own universe but Covid forced them to scrap crossovers with Supergirl & Batwoman. Eventually they gave up on further connecting this show to the wider Arrowverse even though everyone knew this show was meant to exist within the same Universe.

This show is done amazingly, has great actors and great SFX. The show "Smallville" ran for ten years and didn't have Superman, but it tells the story of Clark Kent going to school and developing his powers. It's a top notch show! Even though the SFX is from the 2000s...

[@aagc1988]

sujperman and lois will get the final season this year around october so if you watch every episode every day you can literally see week to week on release the new and final season of episodes.

[@primegotbars4343]

The best superman story telling (in my opinion) is when superman can't just punch/fly/fight his way through an enemy.

[@thatHARVguy]

"Superman is boring. All he does is punch the problem." -every bad writer "But if you think there's a *chance* -- no matter how small -- that there might be just *one* more happy day out there -- then take my hand." -Superman, Superman #701

The Smallville series was really great. I have watched the series at least 5 times and will probably watch it again.

The first suit where he said his mom made it is a callback to early superman comics and TV. Smallville is a awesome show I still can't believe superman and Lois is ending. This is a great show I really liked the actors they licked.

[@Dhruv-qw7jf]

You can pretty much assume that this version of the character loosely follows the same canon as all the other Supermen we have seen, but most prominently like the first five seasons of Smallville.

[@JustaFairyStory]

YESSSS THIS SHOW IS SO GOOD! Season 4 comes out in October and I’m gonna cry so much when this show is over. There’s still so many people who haven’t checked it out, or are skeptical of it. I had a friend tell me the other day “I thought everyone said that show was garbage” and I was thinking “are we talking about the same show?” This show means a lot to me, it came around in the year after my my passed, the twins remind me so much of my brother, it was the first project in a long time that reintroduced a wholesome Superman (he was the character in Supergirl but undermined by supergirl in her own show. And also this show is just a cut above the other CW stuff)

Please continue this show. Easily the best DC show OF ALL TIME. The writing has been amazing every episode since day 1 and every character acts like an actual person as opposed to other shows like Arrow and The Flash. You should also try Smallville, it’s my personal favourite show, but Superman & Lois is the best (if that makes sense).

[@SimplyGhxst]

Don reacting to Smallville would be goated

[@furiousgamer5807]

best superman adaptation

[@fr9811]

Clark's fear about them "telling someone" is a much bigger fear. Maybe it slips on accident, or an enemy weasels their way into their confidence and puts them in danger. Him being "Superman" isn't like him being an undercover cop. He has world-ending enemies who would kill to get vengeance on him, so his sons knowing puts them in danger. Up until this point, though, aside from like that one moment with the football, neither of the boys displayed any powers. So, why tell them until they need to know? Which just so happens to happen in this episode/at the funeral/party. It's not just about the boys not being ready or intelligent enough, it's a safety precaution to keep his sons safe on top of a fear for his son's mental health who's already dealing with social anxiety. So, I can't really fault him for wanting to wait until it's necessary.

Smallville is like a slow burn of the superman story. You can really feel it draw on and on with a plot. You can feel it especially when you know his story and are just waiting for them to get to the point you know is coming, at the slowest pace they can. Other than that its ok.

YES, SMALLVILLE IS AN AMAZING SHOW, GIVE IT A TRYYYYYY

[@JustaFairyStory]

I just started watching Gotham a few weeks ago, and while it’s super wacky, I’ve really enjoyed it so far, just finished season 3. I’ve been told that it kind of falls off with season five, and it’s not for everyone, but it’s been a lot of fun and I think the end of its season 3 is a better place than the end of the Flash season theee. I’ve enjoyed it more than all of the arrow verse shows, and while I the writing isn’t as good as this show, or something like Daredevil, right now it’s in my top three favorite live action superhero shows, behind this and DD.

The majority of adults would not tell their teenage kid such a huge secret. Especially when one of them has mental issues. Wanting to fit in or is being bullied; dropping that knowledge off is what a kid might do. They’re 14 right now; Jordan is not that mature like Jonathan is.

Word of advice if you do decide to check out Smallville in the future just know it's a show that came out in 2001 and there are 10 seasons with 217 episodes in total and it ended in 2017.

[@smdias65]

Thanks for this reaction! As some have mentioned, this show is technically a spinoff of the Arrowverse (although, I think they've distanced themselves from it). There is an episode in one of the Arrowverse shows that explains how the boys were conceived. There is an order to the Arrowverse episodes. You don't necessarily need to follow it, but it can be helpful when they start doing the crossovers.

One of the best depictions of Clark, Lois and especially Lex Luther.....Superman & Lois is good too. The difference is one show he's a teen living in Smallville before he became Superman, the other he's now Superman, much older, married with children and back living in Smallville. Enjoy
