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
