REVIEW: Superman & Lois – Season 3, Episode 13, “What Kills You Only Makes You Stronger”

AlexGherzo | Jun 28, 2023 | 0

Superman & Lois has had an uneven third season, so it’s fitting that the finale, “What Kills You Only Makes You Stronger,” follows suit. Most of the episode is great – percentage-wise, more than the season – but parts of it either don’t make sense or grate on your nerves, leaving you...

REVIEW: Superman & Lois – Season 3, Episode 11, “Complications”

AlexGherzo | Jun 7, 2023 | 0

“Complications” is one of those episodes that feels like it should be the season finale but comes a couple of weeks early. There are still two more episodes left in season 3, but this would have made a satisfying endpoint. The main plotlines come to a head – one better than the other – and &...

REVIEW: Superman & Lois – Season 3, Episode 9 “The Dress”

Superman & Lois feels like its old self again in “The Dress,” a fantastic, character-driven episode that strikes the most human chord this season has yet. Lois’ cancer is front and center again, but it’s handled much better than it had been previously, in an honest way that humanizes thr...

For the first half of “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” (Is every episode this season named after a movie? Must remember to investigate further), I was settling in for a decent but kind of blah episode – more Lois’ cancer, more teen and relationship drama, lots of talking about these things, ...

REVIEW: Superman & Lois Season 3, Episode 7, “Forever and Always”

AlexGherzo | May 3, 2023 | 0

“Forever and Always” is a step in the right direction for Superman & Lois, especially because it deals more heavily with Bruno Manheim than it has so far. Lois’ cancer diagnosis is also used well, emphasizing the contrast between Clark and Manheim and exploring how her sons feel about her ...

REVIEW: Superman & Lois – Season 3, Episode 5, “Head On”

AlexGherzo | Apr 12, 2023 | 0

I was dreading “Head On” when I read the plot synopsis on the CW app before watching it; another episode dedicated to Clark and Sam being too worried about Lois and her illness. But this is much better than the show has been all season, and “Head On” is a necessary episode that forces Lois &...
