Excellent. That was a good episode of Superman and an even better episode of Lois & Clark.

- At first, I thought that Clark and Lois finally consumated their relationship and I was disappointed that we didn't get enough build-up. Then I started to catch on that it was a dream, and sure enough...

- It was nice to see the Wonder Twins eventhough they were done Smallville style. I miss those purple suits, the Vulcan hairdoos and the monkey. At least the phones were a nice homage.

- They should have said "Wonder Twin Powers Activate!" Just "Powers Activate!" sounded odd, like they were embarassed to use the full line.

- As much as I liked the episode, I didn't like the reset with Lois going back to being ignorant of Clark's identity. Why can't he tell her at this point, especially since she took it well?

- Loved the prophetic ending. A big sun and that tower. Can't wait to see whatever it is play out.

- Can't believe Welling put those glasses on again.
 
Is it 1948? What gets shipped in a wooden crate these days?!

Ah, illegal immigrants do.
I was expecting Lois to say... "IT'S PEOPLE!!!"

Is Clark about to start the "No, really [Superman] is a friend of mine!" thing?
I was thinking they'd go that route too.

Who's this guy thinks he is, Harvey Dent?
That's exactly who he was. They've gone back to aping The Dark Knight again.

Lo blacked out and had a flash-forward!


:lol:

At least she wasn't on the can.

Unless you're into that sort of thing.
:vulcan:

You know, I always thought Scott Bakula had only one facial experession when he was on Enterprise. The Constapated Grimace.
:lol:

Durance is a great Lois.
Yes she is. Kinda looked like a young Sarah Palin too.
 
Urgh. It hurts my brain to see Lois Lane and Sarah Palin connected in any way.

Oh, and here's a little tease for next Friday's ep: Link.
 
Yes of all the ways they could connect, that's the most worrying.

Did you honestly think that those were the right words to use to avoid a sex joke?
 
I never cared for Super Friends or the Wonder Twins, so I probably shouldn't care where the Twins came from or how they got their powers. Nevertheless, I thought it would have been nice if the episode had told us more about the Twins. And yes, maybe they should have been given a more prominent role in the episode.
 
I was trying to think what was wrong with how they talked.

They sounded like Lucy and Ethel scheming to get into Riki's show.
