Closer - “They’re Gonna Have to Wait.” Yeah”
Greetings Super friends! Welcome BACK to Superman & Lois & Pals. I’m Henry Bernstein and alongside me is my favorite super pal, Professor Sam Brody.
How was your Superman Summer? And fall? And winter? It’s weird how in my kishkes, shows feel like they should be on September to May. Anyway did you do or read anything Supermany? Lots of comic news. Superman Warwold came to an end and the Dawn of DC began. Phillip Kennedy Johnson is doing a great job with Superman. Movie news, Cavill in, then out, Gunn takes over DC then announces he’s writing and directing Superman Legacy. And here on the CW, Superman and Lois’ future is in question as DC shows are going away…
Let’s talk about Superman and Lois Season 3 Episode 1
S02E15 - “Closer”
Directed by: Tom Cavanaugh
Written By:
Brent Fletcher and Todd Helbing
IMDB: Jordan and Jonathan celebrate their 16th birthdays, Sam reaches out to Natalie with poor results, Chrissy ends up with a surprising bed partner, Lois gets some surprising news, and Atom-Man returns posing a new threat to Superman, as does Bruno Mannheim.
- VERY horny episode - L and C AND Christy and Kyle
- Love seeing this so much more than horny teens
- New fortress seems a lot like the old fortress but LOVE that Jordan has to fight Superman’s Rogue’s Gallery. Atomic Skull!
- Bruno Manheim - Sam give us a character bio and where does Manheim rank as all time Superman villain? Top 10? Top 20?
- ONOMATOPOEIA
- Atom Man, we saw him in the flashback with Superman in the Fleischer suit, but here he was kinda sympathetic Nazi? Don’t love that. I hope this isn’t a one off with him. He’s too good of a villain.
- Teens were much less annoying but honestly I still don’t care about Sarah and Jordan
- Lana was fine in this episode. Seems like she’s finding her comfort zone
- The whole Sam Lane with Natalie thing is dumb. Every grandparent I know are nice and cordial and even welcoming to their grandkids’ friends, but I don’t know a single one that would rather spend time with them instead of their own grandchildren. Was it so bad what Sam Lane did? Recruiting Natalie? That’s his world AND she is super smart.
- METROPOLIS - I wanted it, I got it.
- More reporting! A little awk that it’s just the three of them writing at this small town newspaper
- Great seeing them working together but why is the Smallville Gazette reporting on huge national news? Why isn’t this just Lois Lane Dot Com?
- Coach Gaines - why is he so crabby all the time? Also a funny edit where it looked like he put a rib bone in his pocket.
- Bitsie just gets better and better, so does Tyler.
- It’s great seeing her play happy too. I’m so nervous for what’s going to separate them.
- Suicide Slum? What about it? Bibbo?
“There’s a lot Easter eggs this season,” Helbing adds. “ A lot.”
