In a feeble attempt at keeping things relatively tidy, I figure we can discuss the official back-story (Edit: And The Pilot episode) of the "show"
here. (Or, also
at the poll .)
So, FoLCs! Do you have suggestions? questions? input of any sort, regardless of whether you intend to do any actual writing? Let your voice be heard!
The *basic* premise is: At the start of the pilot, Lois and Clark have a 10 year marriage and a 10 year old kid. What order those two came in is to be left a mystery to us.
Some details are open for vote at the poll, but it can't possibly cover everything. So, let's hash. What went on before the pilot? What will go into the...what was it who-person called it? Show's bible?
(Incidentally, anybody who's interested in an official-sounding position such as Show-Bible-Keeper can report to the
Main Thread/ Office .

Current Data From the Back-Story Poll:
As of this writing, most FoLCs who voted feel that the couple either lived in Kansas or moved around a lot. Discuss.
It seems nearly unanimous so far that of their parents, one couple fully supports Lois and Clark and the other fully does not. I feel dumb for even asking. (Or at least, I could have handled the question better).
Most FoLCs seem to feel that Lois should know about Clark from the beginning (or near-beginning) of their relationship. 8 say he tells her, 4 say she finds out on her own. Discuss. (Also, how it comes up. *g*)
As to how long they've been working at the DP, early results favor that either both are new, or Clark is new and Lois isn't. Either way, it looks like Clark is a greenhorn.
Most FoLCs seem to prefer that Clark becomes Superman during the pilot, as on the original show. I'm inclined to agree, but feel free to discuss.
The question over whether the kid knows about Clark's 'differences' or not is officially locked 9-9. That's...kind of an important detail to straighten out before we launch. Care to discuss?
One more thing: Does Claude still work there?
