Unless I despite (like Crisis on Infite Earths level hate) I will watch the first three episodes live or on CW streaming. If these give me no interest I will then check again for season 2. I have plenty of doubt, but I think Superman is worth spending a few hours for another potential show as good as Smallville.

No, unless someone who knows me personally tells me I’d like it, or if they feature a minor character I really like. I’ve always been a much bigger cartoon fan that live action and its going to have to be amazing to be one of the few exceptions I watch. But I hope its good for those who are excited for it! Just not my cup of tea

You didn’t like Crisis on Infinite Earths?!

I’ll watch it eventually. I want to finish the New Adventures of Lois and Clark first. But I’m no rush as I kind of fell out of love with CW shows. I dug the trailer though.

MatthewHecht · February 17, 2021, 6:10pm

That is a huge understatement. Think of Clark’s hatred of Darkseid. Now times that by 1000. Now imagine that being continuing forever. You are then beginning to feel my hatred.

I will when it gets to HBO Max. I hate the ads on The CW app.

KendallMJohnson · February 17, 2021, 11:38pm

From what I have heard, from critics who got early viewings, this apparently does not feel like the other CW shows or let alone a CW show. I heard the Special effects look better than “Titans”.

MatthewHecht · February 18, 2021, 3:08am

I know exactly what you mean. I once told Clark I do not like Man of Steel. He literally punched me an hour into the future.

Green.Lantern · February 18, 2021, 3:57am

I’m looking forward to giving it a shot. I’ve been reading a ton of Superman comics lately so I’m in the mood for it.

A hopeful review

Is it bad that I loved both of those movies?

moro · February 19, 2021, 10:33pm

If it is, then at least we’re in the same boat, my friend. Loved ‘em both.

Jared-El_Wayne · February 22, 2021, 8:51am

That’s 2 hours, not 1. I’m gonna judge the series by the pilot episode.

Jared-El_Wayne · February 22, 2021, 8:55am

When the title was released, I was excited to see Tyler Hoechlin in his own series. I’ve seen the previews now, and am skeptical. The farm doesn’t look like the CW’s Arrowverse cross-overs.
The farm looks more like the one used in “Man of Steel”. I’m hoping for the best. I don’t like commercials, so I’m gonna wait to watch the CW streaming.
Here’s wishing good luck.

Lots of people love those both Man of Steel and BvS. I think Man of Steel is more popular, but BvS definitely qualities as a “cult movie.” As bad a name as some of the lunatics on twitter have given the BvS fans occasionally, my strongest experience with others who love those films is very positive. There’s a lot of us out there who see nuance and heart in both those films!

As for Superman & Lois, of course I’ll watch it! It’s the first live action Superman TV show with the cape and everything since the 90s! This is big, haha! I’m really excited to see where it goes; I really hope I love it! I have some concerns as always, but overall the excitement of possibilities is just so much, I’m really looking forward to seeing it!

SuperBlueGrodd · February 22, 2021, 1:53pm

My only problem is that that would be great… if it wasn’t Superman. I’m trying my best not to judge till I actually see the show, but… I don’t know if we really need more dark Superman… I don’t know, I could end up liking it, so who knows. I can’t tell until I see it.

SuperBlueGrodd · February 22, 2021, 1:56pm

I don’t think it’s bad to have your own opinion, no . Everyone has different thoughts on things, and that’s one thing that makes life interesting.
Personally, I have yet to watch BvS all the way through, but Man of Steel isn’t really my thing. I liked it for some reasons and disliked it for others.

arkhamassassin · February 22, 2021, 4:16pm

They’re making it seem that way by advertising it as a 2-hour premiere, but really it’s an hour-and-a-half pilot (w/ commercials) and then a half-hour special about Superman’s legacy

superby1 · February 22, 2021, 4:36pm

I will absolutely watch this! I love the fact we have a new Superman show after eleven years. I like Tyler’s Superman and can’t wait to see more of his Clark and Elizabeth’s Lois has really grown on me with each appearance.

I loved the initial trailer and have had the music stuck in my head ever since. I also like we’re getting to explore something we have seen much of in live action…Clark and Lois as parents. We got a hint of it in the finale of Lois and Clark and there was Superman Returns, but now we get to see that idea fully realized.
