While it has its flaws, Superman and Lois has plenty of potential to justify its own existence.
While the overall story line lacked action, and the drama with the two twins felt forced, the story line's overall tone, heart, and questions more than made up for it. I love the tone of this series compared to The Flash.
The acting in this episode was superb, compared to other CW shows. Tyler Hoechlin is arguably the best actor to portray Superman, due to the different emotions he has to convey. Bitsie Tulloch arguably plays the best Lois Lane as well. The teenage actors also held their own very well, which surprised the heck out of me.
The villain being revealed as Captain Luthor surprised me. I think that he is from a different Earth, that was destroyed, and he blames Superman from a different universe for it. Should be interesting as to what transpires.
Overall, While it has some obvious flaws, the tone, acting, heart, and characterization in Superman and Lois is enough to justify its own existence, and it has the potential to be a very good show for the CW, to help them replace Arrow.
Out of a 10 I would give it...
