Hi cuidadora ,

Thanks for the FDK!

As for Lois,it was ridiculous she would remain clueless even after she recovered from the shock of the situation. It was too obvious that only Superman could take on the clone. And I always thought she'd go over and over that encounter in her mind until she was enlightened. If nothing else because she'd be terrified for Clark.

I agree with Ken it was definitely unrealistic to keep Lois clueless in multiple situations. After the writers/producers created a strong female lead who would order Clark around and was supposed to be the best investigative reporter, I found it demeaning to have her be so clueless in such obvious situations. I did read somewhere that the pilot was planned for a series 10 pm time slot (more adult) and then the series aired during a family time 8 pm originally. Perhaps they were writing more for children at this point and thought they had to make it obvious to the audience that Clark had Superman's strength?

Great job Ken!

Thanks for coming out of what amounts to lurker status to make a comment. I take it as a compliment that in the almost full year that you have been registered this is one of the stories you have chosen to comment on. I appreciate your commendation, greatly.

I don’t know if you have been following the series from the start, but I did comment that there are a number of errors in the original series that I would, in my own way, attempt to correct. This is one of them.
