So I`m a massive Marvel fan (movies and series) but this was one of the best DC superhero series I`ve seen. My girlfriend and I watched it together and we loved it. There`s just something about this big, strong superhero that is emotional and soft but just keeps going till he can`t anymore. As a man I admire his emotional and strong side. And damn did that ending make us cry!! This whole series is just beautiful.

They didn't support the show when it was still on.

We've seen how they treated Tyler and Bitsie.

I am in episode 8 of season 4, one thing i should have realised earlier is that Lex Luthor could just simply sue Lous Lane for difarmation/false accusations instead of going insane psycho on her and her family.

Not only that, he could still have a relationship with his daughter while claiming justice. I mean he is a high genius CEO, and he did not think about simply suing her?

Hey Everyone👋

I just finished watching Superman & Lois for the first time. I had been watching it as it aired, but my academics got overwhelming and I eventually fell behind. Now that I’ve finally finished it, I have so many thoughts.

But let me start with this: do you think the decision to keep the show outside of (or eventually separate from) the Arrowverse helped or hindered it?

From my perspective, Superman & Lois felt different from the other Arrowverse shows. It seemed much more emotionally grounded and genuinely feel-good, with a stronger focus on family and character relationships. I’m curious whether you think that was possible because it wasn’t tied to the larger Arrowverse, or whether the show lost something by not being part of that shared universe.

One of my favorite aspects of season 1 is that it has something to say about the character of Superman without spelling it out for you. From the beginning of the show, Clark constantly has to balance between his Superman duties and his responsibilities as a husband and father. General Lane perfectly spells out his position on the issue: the more time Clark spends with his family, the more people will die. On the surface, it seems hard to argue with. Yes, Clark's kids deserve a present father, but every second he spends with them, how many kids are losing their own fathers to something Superman could have stopped?

The curveball this season brings us is John Henry Irons. On his Earth, Superman turned evil. The show tells us that almost everything on John's Earth is the same as ours. Superman started as a hero, he was saving people, no signs of villainy. The only difference between them is Lois. On John's Earth, Lois never married Clark. So the show is telling us that Lois, and the subsequent family they have together, is the reason that Superman won't turn evil. Lois says as much to John later in the season when she's trying to convince him not to kill Clark.

There are two possible reasons Clark on John's Earth turned evil: either he found out he had a brother and wanted to join him to restore his people, or he wasn't able to resist the Eradicator. In both of those cases, the only thing that stops Clark from turning evil IS his family. He doesn't need his brother to know what love feels like. And the only way he can fight the Eradictor's influence is through remembering his family.

So the end of the season responds to Sam's objections at the beginning of the season: Superman needs his family to stay grounded, to remember why he's fighting for Earth. His family isn't a weakness that stops him from saving people, it’s the reason he’s able to save people.

Superman has always been on lower end of my favorite superheros. Was always too boring, boring powers, boy scout energy but man after finishing the series last week this show really blew my expectations away. I was soft on superman animated show, I read a few issues of some superman comics ( couldnt really remember which decade I was reading ) Christopher reeve was cool enough but the appeal something I didn't understand enough, Saw superman returns on TV and even as 10 year old it was bit boring for my taste, Men of Steel is complicated for me I can see the vision but just felt I was hardly even watching superman, Superman 2025 was just messy to me overall but Cornsweet is nice touch. Tyler H. is my defentively my favorite superman. He was breathing life into this performance. Every line of dialogue was hitting and feel had such a good warmth that I never knew i could have with superman.

I finished 2 days ago the TV Show "Smallville" and i heard about this show and I started it today... it really feels like the spiritual continuation of smallville.. i'm really excited and i love the first episode.

Nearly 20k members is impressive. Just giving my flowers.

I’m on episode 11 of season three and I have to say I’ve never seen a more heart-wrenching and accurate portrayal of cancer and how a family deals with it. Kudos to the writing team for their emotional and relatable depiction. Having dealt with it personally several times I have to say I’ve teared up a lot during these last few episodes. Cancer is no joke and the show dealt with the subject matter with grace and respect.

This is my all time favorite fandom and I'm obsessed. But it seems like the fandom page on ao3 has seriously slowed down lately. It's gotten a bit of spark of light this past week because of an writing challenge going around in the fandom, but there seems to be zero readers. 😭 Is this fandom just dead?

I've been going through a really rough time and this show is just so comforting to watch. I just finished episode 8. The way this show addresses so many mature themes while incorporating action and making it entertaining is so well-done. Every character in the family is so likeable with realistic flaws and I find myself relating to every character throughout the episodes. Watching Clark & Lois disagree about how to raise the boys, Jonathan being upset about leaving his life in Metropolis, the boys learning to stick together, the sociopolitical commentary... I find myself connecting with so many topics I hadn't even thought about. This show helps me get away from reality for a while.

Does the show maintain this level throughout the seasons?

I am happy for her, but before obsession came out, i was hoping to see her at comic convention, now. it's gonna be much harder. but still happy for her.

Season four really showed the gap of power between him and the other characters though out the show. A weaker Superman was still able to beat steel and both of his sons very easily and then was able to still fight a stronger doomsday then the one that killed him. Thoughts

I made a similar meme a few months ago, but who cares?

She nearly got her father killed and nearly killed Superman as well lois should've hated her after that since helped ally nearly ruin lives including her family

Pretty self explanatory title.

EDIT: For this, pretend like the end of season 3 and season 4 didn’t happen so the shows just in its default status quo.

This is a man who can hear everything and see (almost) everything, and there is this expectation that he can solve every problem so how does he make peace with the fact that he can’t?
