REVIEW: Superman & Lois – Season 1, Episode 13 “Fail Safe”
“Fail Safe” is one of those “taking stock” episodes following a big event. It isn’t flashy or exciting, and it won’t be anyone’s favorite, but it’s important to catch up with the characters and see how something as cataclysmic as humanity almost being wiped out by a psychotic alien w...

Superman & Lois returns from a two-week break with “Through the Valley of Death,” and it’s like it never left. Once more, the show demonstrates how well it understands the essence of Superman, not just in how it depicts him but in the effect he has on others. It also presents another compe...

“A Brief Reminiscence In-Between Cataclysmic Events” is a mostly splendid episode that features some of the best Superman & Lois moments yet and points to an exciting final run of episodes to close out the first season. It also has a few elements that hint at a possible infection of the woke...
