Product Description:
The complete first season the TV series Lois & Clark.
Amazon.com:
Lois & Clark was one of the sweetest surprises of the 1993 television season, and while it certainly enjoyed a devoted following until the series jumped the tall building in its later years, we can probably thank the Phoenix-like rise of Desperate Housewives' Teri Hatcher's career to thank for its arrival on DVD. The premise of Lois & Clark is one fraught with peril, particularly for core fans. This incarnation of the Man of Steel saga recasts Superman as romantic comedy. One of the series creators once described this series as "basically, Moonlighting, only Bruce Willis can fly." This is overstating the case by leaps and bounds. Clark Kent (Dean Cain) has not been reinvented as a wisecracking street-wise hipster. The chemistry between the new Metropolis arrival and rookie Daily Planet scribe and ace investigative reporter Lois Lane (Hatcher) is not as sexually charged as David and Maddie, and their banter is not as sharp. But as with Moonlighting it would be a few seasons before the two lovelorn characters consummated their attraction.
The dramatic arc of this inaugural season is "the fall of the house of Luthor," but at its heart is the triangle between Clark, Lois, and the charming snake Lex Luthor (John Shea), who, in the pilot episode, Superman vows to bring to justice ("Let the games begin," Luthor responds). Further complicating matters is that Superman has literally swept Lois off her feet. But until the episode "Barbarians at the Planet," in which Lex proposes to Lois, Lois professes her love to Superman, and Clark confesses his love to Lois, Lois & Clark breezily tweaks the touchstones of Superman iconography. "I've never noticed it before," a "drunk with love" Lois observes to a bespectacled Clark in "Pheremone, My Lovely," "You look a lot like Superman." Though special effects have progressed since the 1990s, Lois & Clark has lost little of its sparkle and panache, thanks to its super leads, whose fledgling careers soared to dizzying new heights. --Donald Liebenson

Lois & Clark season 1 is the benchmark for all other television premieres to follow. It's that good. More importantly, the strict focus on Clark Kent and Lois Lane allows it to mine inventive stories out of an old warhorse like Superman. It's just a breezy, fun show and I can't imagine anyone not liking it just a bit.
The biggest strength is, obviously, the casting. Dean Cain fits this role like a glove, portraying a kindhearted yuppie who isn't hokey. -- probably the hardest aspect ... Read More

It's hard for me to admit that I actually prefer this adaptation to the first two Christopher Reeve movies, since I think those two are still among the best superhero movies ever to hit the screen. But the truth is, on the balance, I do like this series just a little bit better, despite the silliness and the camp that it often displayed. It was an interesting new take on the Superman story. It's very different in focus from the movies. In them, Superman was the main character. The first movie ... Read More

Another "Superman" series after the serials with George Reeves and the enormously successful (discounting the horrendous "Superman III" & "Superman IV"), did we REALLY NEED another "Superman" series? The answer is a resounding YES, YES, YES. Deborah Joy Levine has recreated Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster's immortal comic book hero for a new generation. Gone is Lex Luthor, mad scientist with a bald head. Gone is Lois Lane, typical damsel-in-distress. Gone is Perry White, "Great Caesar's Gohst." But...never ... Read More
