    A Strong Start

    This is definitely off to a better start than batwoman and is very well paced and interesting. Clark and lois's dynamic is very nice, better production than most cw shows now which is another plus. I see great things in the future for this show.

    Superman Flies Again

    It was great to see Superman and Lois Lane back on TV again. And they came back with a solid pilot. Not only is Superman and Lois back, but they also brought their kids. Not only was this a good pilot, but it also looks like it's going to be a good family drama. There is only one more thing to say... UP, UP AND AWAY!

    A strong pilot for a promising cw show

    Superman and Lois captures the essence of each character and develops it in a good way. Visually, this show is the best, compared to a movie? why not? Another highlight is the incorporation of Superman's children, they deal with not knowing the identity of his father and his teenage life, good point. First episode more than approved

    More superman less CW

    Everything that was about superman was good. The show really dragged when it was about the usually CW melodrama.

    Pretty amazing

    Good first ep, CGI better than others cw shows and a solid script.

      While saving Jordan from trouble at the bonfire party, Jonathan says he had to randomly DM numerous people to find out where the party was, but earlier when they were in the barn with Sarah, right before their accident with the poles, he was well within earshot when Sarah told Jordan about the party and invited him to come.
