REVIEW: Superman & Lois Season 1, Episode 11 “A Brief Reminiscence In-Between Cataclysmic Events”
AlexGherzo | Jun 23, 2021 | 0
“A Brief Reminiscence In-Between Cataclysmic Events” is a mostly splendid episode that features some of the best Superman & Lois moments yet and points to an exciting final run of episodes to close out the first season. It also has a few elements that hint at a possible infection of the woke...

“O Mother, Where Art Thou?” is a mostly good episode, but it has Superman & Lois’ first stumble in presenting Superman’s story as it should be (outside of the absent red shorts). It actually feels almost like a season finale, or at least the episode before the mid-season break – and ju...
