    Pretty great!

    I found this episode entertaining and satisfying. I personally think the villains were a fascinating concept, and handled quite well. It started out seeming like Myrtle was just a typical entertaining and well-done but silly villain and it turned into something deeper, and it was especially fascinating how the truth about her doctor "assistant" unfolded. I just love how the entire thing developed, from the beginning to the end. Yes, the way in which the titular couple finally got married in this episode was extremely cheesy and weird...but this show is no stranger to cheesy, weird things, which isn't all a bad thing!

    What

    I watched this episode with my family when it originally aired, and have fond memories of all of us being confused annoyed by the introduction of Mike. A bizarre idea that fell flat.

    I liked Mike!

    I am thoroughly surprised to see not a lot of love for Mike. I personally found his inclusion in the episode close to genius. The idea of an "angel" or whatever he was who would randomly come into our lives, give us encouragement, then disappear and we only remember that encouragement is incredibly appealing.

    David Doyle was well cast in the part and the music that accompanies his visits gives me chills every time I hear it.

    Was it corny? You bet. Do I personally need corny in my life. You betcha!

    Everyone needs Mike!!!

    Wedded......

    The second "wedding" of Lois and Clark, is even more beguiling than the first. If you recall the first trip to the Alter Lois is replaced by a clone. Well this time we get a wonderful end to a very loopy and sad villainess. While the duo work the story they are besieged by a few shady henchmen who just want their story. Of course both sets of parents appear making for the real feels.

    A memorial Character from Charlie's Angels officiates the young couple and just when you think the day is done a knock at the door signals the arrival of more.. All in all this an episode that delights,scares and makes you miss this every Sunday.

But in episode 1.17 The Rival she says that Linda King used to be her best friend until she stole a boyfriend and a story. And in episode 2.6 Operation Blackout Lois says that Molly Flynn was her best friend in college until Molly started dating a guy that Lois couldn't stand.
    • Quotes

      Clark Kent: Lois, I have loved you from the moment I saw you. I love your humor; your passion. The way you dive right in... even when you shouldn't. Because you refuse to just watch the world. You demand that it be a better place, and because of you, it is. And today, I want to give you as much of the world as I can. So I give you my heart, my soul... and our future.

      [he slips the ring on her finger]

      Lois Lane: Clark, you're my best friend. Until I met you, I never had a best friend. And falling in love with you has been so easy, I don't know why I fought it for so long. You have such gentle grace; such quiet strength; but mostly, such incredible kindness. I've never known anyone with as pure a heart. So today, I give you my love, my honor... and our life together.
