      @@Che1Angelius Before Superman and Lois there was the Superboy Tv series. Before that was of course George Reeve's series.
      But no I would not count Brandon Routh's Superman Returns, 90's Flash(which has a much stronger connection), Batman, or any of the other shows or movies in Crisis as CW era. Even the shows that were on the WB but didn't make it to CW.
      So it starts with Smallville and ends with Superman and Lois. Though Smallville certainly did show appreciation to both Christopher Reeve's Superman and Lois and Clark.

    Basically Superman & Lois is the end of an entire era of the CW that started in 2001 with Smallville and ended with Superman & Lois in 2024. I know that Arrow can probably be considered the end of the Arrowverse, but... I think the ending of Superman & Lois is no worse. I was sad to realize that all these characters will never get together and do heroic things again. But damn, despite all the problems, these projects had some kind of their own great unity vibe that everyone liked and charish. Anyway... RIP Arrowverse and CW superhero shows era 10.10.12 - 2.12.24

    I adore this series and this was such a wonderful ending for the show and the characters. I love how they turned budget cuts a shortened season to their advantage.
    During season 2 I lost my Mom. During season 3 my sister got diagnosed with breast cancer a week before Lois did in the show. In both cases in these rough times, Superman & Lois offered a much needed distraction for an hour. Lois going through her treatments helped me as I toon my sister to her treatments , and as I stayed with my sister, it allowed me to see how the show really paid attention and respect to the chemo process.
    This show will easily stand with Superboy and Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman as super shows that only lasted four seasons each but left a resounding impact with me. Great video. You knocked it out of the park.

      @ahsokarules2369 You might be right that it is making a nod to his post death suit; however, this entire series has had him in darker, toned down, drab color especially the crest. I don't know what it is about live-action Superman costumes; since 2006 they've all been purposefully drab for the most part.

      It’s not even OOC for Lex to go off the rails & descend to thuggery when his plans start to fail.
      That started when he couldn’t get his daughters location, then Superman came back to life, then he finds his daughter but ultimately loses her because he can’t let go of his hate, then the people of Smallville reject him & he’s beaten up by a powerless Superman.
      That pileup of failures is enough to dig deep into his insecurities & make him go off the rails. In the end battle he keeps charging Superman repeatedly despite getting punched back each time. He’s out of tricks & running on rage rather than smarts.

They could make it a miniseries, coin it as Elseworlds, bring back the actors of several shows, including the shows they canceled like Swamp Thing or Legends of Tomorrow and end the miniseries by retconning most of the shows into taking place in the same universe. And they can always return to this continuity like have for the DC Animated Universe!

      The WB's issue is they tend to hire directors who don't want to tell a superhero story. The other is they tried to chase the Marvel dragon without considering what the DC properties were.
      It should have been a gigantic red flag that in his second appearance they were killing Cavill's Superman off. That he barely interacts with Lex. That he doesn't help form the league. That he's barely in the very first Justice League Movie(which is saying a lot due to Justice League Mortal not happening plus two Superman movie productions that failed to get off the ground).
      Like the WB put its stock in Suicide Squad as the golden child over Batman.

    To me, this Lex perfectly encapsulates his mindset at the end of his beef with Clark. Yes, the focus is on Lois too, but Lois only went after Lex because of Clark. The psychology of the character reminds me a lot of Smallville, where it was explained that Lex, having been raised in a business, can't really understand love. This Lex was abused as a child and processed that by ruthlessly amassing wealth. Of course he can't choose Elizabeth over Lois, he doesn’t think he'll "profit" off of his daughter, whereas he sees himself evening out the score between him and Lois.

    This is the best series finale I've ever seen, and a fantastic Superman story. The writers, director, and cast convey a deep love and reverence for the character, and concluded this story in such a satisfying way that triggered just as many smiles as tears jerked. Seeing Superman use his influence to inspire others in building "a better tomorrow" is what I always felt the character should stand for. Him forgiving Lex for his frailty in his final moments was just so classy. It was even cool to see the evolution of Kyle and Clark's relationship where Kyle had the chance to be the hero again and administer lifesaving procedures so Clark could hang on a little longer and have the chance to say goodbye to his family. What a wonderful show this has been!

    I think the reason why Superman and Lex's rivalry didn't work is because they didn't show enough flashbacks of his battles with Superman. His motivation was his daughter and his hate for Lois, but there was never a hate for Superman as he should like in the comics because of being alien. He always thought that humanity should fight for themselves. This is why BvS motivations were good too, although Jesse's acting was over the top, he was written to see Superman as an abomination.
    Superman and Lois tried to go for the 90's Lex gangster style but I'm not sure if it fit since we already had a gangster storyline previously with Mannheim. It would have been better to stay close to the modern billionaire route but what do others think?

    Lex Luthor: "No prison on Earth can hold me! You know that! Come on! KILL ME!!!"
    Superman: "NO!!! God knows that I want to! But you don't get to destroy who I am! You will go back to prison and spend the rest of your miserable life in a cage, knowing that you don't deserve to be with your daughter, knowing that the people of Smallville rejected you and beat you, my family beat you, I BEAT YOU!!!"

    While I am glad that they managed to tie everything up in the final episode and made the finale season itself really work, I have a feeling that they were planning to do Darkseid at some point and that even for Brainiac to be future villains but due to budget cuts and shortened to only 4 seasons, they were forced to cut all future plans while some hints and clues to them remained.
    All that said, I think it was for the best that they ended the show on 4 seasons and ended on a high note.

    Superman beating up Lex Luthor. It made sense because it's almost canon that people forget Clark Kent is a farmer. I forget which animated movie but they train Supergirl to fight without her powers.

    I could never get into the Arrowverse, although I did try on multiple occasions. The shows were getting a lot of praise online in various forums, but I always thought the writing and character work were somewhat cringy and immaturish. Maybe I wasn't in the targeted demographic, but those shows weren't for "me." Fast forward to 2021 with the debut of Superman & Lois, and I was reminded why Superman is my favorite superhero. This show was phenomenal from beginning to end, and I will miss it.

    I wasn’t a fan of the CW at first and I only watched the shows that were DC based. But then, Crazy Ex Girlfriend came around. Then my teenage cousin kept suggesting me to watch The 100 so I did. I was somewhat interested in All American but my uncle wanted to watch it so I watched it with him. And it feels the least CW-ish even as a teen drama. I've only seen the pilot of the original Roswell and haven't had time or the at-home wifi to watch it but I did get around to watching Roswell New Mexico which I think is decent. As with Legacies without ever watching TVD or The Originals. And I still think Life Sentence was better than people gave it credit for (granted, I hadn’t watched since it aired and Friendly Space Ninja hated it in his Worst Teen Dramas of All Time video). So yeah, I don't think The CW was all bad. I respect them for making great shows against the odds of low to no budget. After this show, I’m done watching. And All American should’ve ended with the wedding in the season finale. It was perfect!

    In the end I'd say Superman and Lois avoided a whole lot of what hurt the Flash in it's later seasons and extended into Arrow/LOT(I think they lost the plot)/Supergirl. Black Lightning I feel maintained itself.
    Clearly there was a lot they could do. Superman has been published every month(and probably up to 3-4 times a month) since the 1930's. There is no shortage of stories. Which it's baffling how the movies have barely gotten out of Superman meets Lex for 5 minutes.
    What stings is they actually make a Steel suit with a red cape and S. Like.............wtf. It's miraculous how much ground they covered on a lower budget. While the Flash did that final season.
    Brainiac I think had good live action portrays on Smallville and Krypton(actually looked like Brainiac and the show honestly tried to be more than it had any right to).
    Yeah in the end this show covered a lot of ground and taken as a whole. Superman on TV has done a lot more that cinema needs to be better.

    This show could’ve gotten seven seasons. Seven! F WB and go, DC Studios! I’m still hoping sometime in the future, we get a DCTV multiverse crossover. They could make it a miniseries, coin it as Elseworlds, bring back the actors of several shows, including the shows they canceled like Swamp Thing or Legends of Tomorrow and end the miniseries by retconning most of the shows into taking place in the same universe. And they can always return to this continuity like have for the DC Animated Universe!

    • @Mirakulus9
      @Mirakulus9 4 дня назад +3

      Not true. The show's cancelation had everything to do with CW being sold and them switching over to unscripted programming. Even Bitsie Tulloch said so. And that's not how licensing and networks work. The show wasn't making enough money for the new CW owners liking. The minute they started canceling all the CW DC shows, the writing was on the wall. The cancelation was inevitable.

    While I agree that season 2 wasn't as satisfying as Season 1, I have to say, outside of Ally Alston being poorly fleshed out, season 2 gave us some of the best individual moments of the show. Bizarro Superman was peak. We got the Supermen of America. Anderson was actually a pretty compelling villain compared to Ally. We got that fight with Superman taking on the DoD, which was mirrored in the Bizarro world. Speaking of which, we got an entire Bizarro world episode which was brilliantly done. Tal Rho was phenomenal in that season, and the finally gave us one of the most iconic shots of the show with a solar-infused Superman separating two earths with a cinematic overpowered punch. So while season 3 felt more consistent, I feel like season 2 had more iconic standout moments.

  • @flintlockwood25
    @flintlockwood25 2 дня назад

    I have to disagree with you in regards to Luthor. This version of him is meant to be an irredeemable sociopath, which I think they accomplished. Before he went to prison, he was already evil, using and killing whomever he please to get what he wanted, and after getting out of prison, he just got worse. The bits with his daughter were absolutely necessary and really worked for me because it showed that he was beyond the point of no return. Him hating Lois more than he loves his daughter is the point. He uses his daughter and not seeing her for 17 years as one of the many excuses he makes for harassing Lois and making her life miserable, and it shows that any semblance of love he might have and probably does have for his daughter was completely outweighed by his hatred of and desire to get revenge on Lois and Clark. He's a twisted, jaded, unbelievably selfish sociopath who only cares about himself, and in the end, his evil and his hatred completely consumed him and got him right back in jail where he belongs. Plus, Michael Cudlitz absolutely kills it. In my opinion, Lex is a damn near perfect villain in this show, and my favourite live action Lex Luthor (I haven't seen Smallville btw)
