REVIEW: Superman & Lois – Season 3, Episode 8 “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner”
For the first half of “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” (Is every episode this season named after a movie? Must remember to investigate further), I was settling in for a decent but kind of blah episode – more Lois’ cancer, more teen and relationship drama, lots of talking about these things, ...
