In Lois & Clark's first season, Clark Kent (Dean Cain) and Lois Lane (Teri Hatcher) joined the ranks of Sam and Diane and David and Maddie as TV's sparkiest couples whose devoted fans couldn't wait to see get together. Season 2 takes the star-crossed duo--and the series--to "the next step"; a long-awaited first kiss (the episode "Lucky Leon"), and declarations of love, culminating in a season-ending marriage proposal ("And the Answer Is..."). But getting to that deliriously romantic rain-soaked moment is all the fun. There are diabolical villains for Superman to foil, including a resurrected (and bald) Lex Luthor (John Shea reprising his first-season role in "The Phoenix"), a trash-TV host (Raquel Welch in "Top Copy), the vengeful Prankster (Bronson Pinchot in "The Prankster" and "Return of the Prankster"), and, incredibly, a time-traveled Al Capone (William Devane in "That Old Gang of Mine"). There is also a romantic rival for Clark's affections, Deputy D.A. Mayson Drake (Farrah Forke in "Church of Metropolis") and for Lois's (Jim Pirri as agent Daniel Scardino in "Resurrection"). Lois and Clark's second season not only features improved special effects, but a stellar roster of character actors: Roger Corman veteran Dick Miller as Lois's uncle and Peter Boyle as Intergang kingpin Bill Church in "Church of Metropolis"; a reunited Sherman Hemsley and Isabel Sanford (The Jeffersons) in the Dean Cain-penned holiday episode, "Season's Greedings"; Bruce Campbell as Bill Church Jr. in "Individual Responsibility"; and Terry Kiser of Weekend at Bernie's fame as H.G. Wells in "Tempus Fugitive," the fan-favorite episode in which futuristic villain Tempus spills the beans to the "galactically stupid" Lois about Clark's secret identity. "That was worth the whole trip," he cackles, and for series fans, this benchmark (albeit fleeting) moment is probably worth the price of this super six-disc set. --Donald Liebenson

 Great on screen chemistry for Network TV! September 24, 2008
Jarvis D. Hilton (East Hartford, CT)
I'm glad to say I'm a hopeless romantic and this series sparked a need to have somebody to hold on too. Really!! This series was one of the most touching piece of television I ever saw. What made this season great was the romance between lois and clark was in its infancy. A couple of episodes gave you a hint that something between them could happen down the road. which made each episode fresh and interesting. Some episodes lingered into the boring stage but you would find on most TV shows.
So, if you are a new to the series, take a chance and buy it because this is classic television at it finest.
Even more high flying fun then Season 1 June 11, 2008
Cornorama (NY,NY)
Welcome to season 2 of Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. When we last left Lois and Clark, Lex Luther had taken a great fall (right off the top of the tallest building in Metropolis), Lois had realized she might just have feelings for Clark "not superman" Kent, and Clark cut his nose off to spite his face by telling Lois that he lied about being in love with her.
Being the man of steel doesn't nessesaily make you smooth with the ladies.
To avoid spoiliers, which I hate seeing in reviews, this reviewer will only say that of the four seasons, season 2 was the most fun. Some familar faces appeared as guest stars, a rival for Lois's affections was intoduced, a foxy blonde D.A that had the hots for Clark popped in and out throughout the season, and the season finale had me shouting at the tv way back in 1995.
In my opinion, Lois and Clark really hit their stride in Season 2. It was beating Seaquest most Sunday nights and in general its ratings were decent. Dean Cain was the darling of Teen Beat, Bop, Tiger Beat and several other magazines that I regret to say I do remember the titles of. Teri Hatcher was on the cover of Entertainment Weekly and several other "important" publications and there was finally merchandise to go with the show; yours truely had a t-shirt, poster, collectors cards and the graphic comic book novel that featured comics that inspired episodes.
I would like to claim I collected these out of a sense of nostaglga or a foresight that one day there would be a giant online yard sale to unload that crap on, but the truth of the matter is that I was a 13 year old girl who was in love with Dean Cain.
What a great show... June 6, 2008
Cindy Edge (Texas)
I'm sad to say I somehow missed Lois and Clark when it was on TV, but I am very glad to have discovered it on DVD. The effects are mickey mouse and the plots can be silly, but it doesn't matter. The writing and the chemistry between Hatcher and Cain makes this show charming and totally addicting. I LOVE it!
I could not wait to watch all 4 seasons and can't for the life of me understand why this show was cancelled. (I heard network politics and I believe it.) I was depressed to get to the end of season 4 and not have another to watch.
A Great Season October 18, 2007

The second season Lois and Clark is just a great season, especially for comic book fans. A lot of villains from the comics made an appearance this season; the Toyman, the Prankster, Metallo and so on. Denise Crosby also makes this season really interesting as she quests to bring Lex Luthor back from the dead. There is just so much fun to be had with this season. Overall, really great that I'd recommend to all Superman fans.
Great Show September 6, 2007

Great show..good drama and solid writing. It's Superman as well so you just cannot go wrong. Must have, especially for diehard fans.
