TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 23
SERIES PREMIERE
SUPERMAN & LOIS
"Pilot" - (8:00:00-9:30:50 p.m. ET) (TV-PG, LV) (HDTV)
SERIES PREMIERE - In SUPERMAN & LOIS, after years of facing megalomaniacal supervillains, monsters wreaking havoc on Metropolis, and alien invaders intent on wiping out the human race, the world's most famous superhero The Man of Steel aka Clark Kent (Tyler Hoechlin, "Teen Wolf") and comic books' most famous journalist Lois Lane (Elizabeth Tulloch, "Grimm"), come face to face with one of their greatest challenges ever - dealing with all the stress, pressures, and complexities that come with being working parents in today's society. Complicating the already daunting job of raising two boys, Clark and Lois must also concern themselves with whether or not their sons Jonathan (Jordan Elsass, "Little Fires Everywhere") and Jordan (Alexander Garfin, "The Peanuts Movie") could inherit their father's Kryptonian superpowers as they grow older.

Returning to Smallville to handle some Kent family business, Clark and Lois are reacquainted with Lana Lang (Emmanuelle Chriqui, "Entourage"), a local loan officer who also happens to be Clark's first love, and her Fire Chief husband Kyle Cushing (Erik Valdez, "Graceland"). The adults aren't the only ones rediscovering old friendships in Smallville as the Kent sons are reacquainted with Lana and Kyle's rebellious daughter, Sarah (Inde Navarrette, "Wander Darkly"). Of course, there's never a dull moment in the life of a superhero, especially with Lois' father General Samuel Lane (Dylan Walsh, "Nip/Tuck") looking for Superman to vanquish a villain or save the day at a moment's notice. Meanwhile, Superman and Lois' return to idyllic Smallville is set to be upended when both a mysterious stranger (Wolé Parks, "All American") and impassioned self-made mogul Morgan Edge (Adam Rayner, "Tyrant") enter their lives. (#101). The episode was directed by Lee Toland Krieger and Todd Helbing wrote the teleplay for the first episode, based on a story by Greg Berlanti and Todd Helbing. Original airdate 2/23/2021.

Can you believe we're here? "Supernatural" is where I started doing recaps. It was in a little forum with a group of us, and I'd run to my computer during commercials to write comments. Getting a netbook in 2011 made things so much easier! Anyway, I first came into SPN in season 1 to see episodes with Whedonverse guest stars and stuck around for the second half of the season, then caught up on the very beginning. Got the mister into it and we've watched every season from Season 2 on. 

Scary enough, he and early Dean Winchester were SO alike. He kept responding to things the same as Dean did right before Dean said it and it was SO FREAKY. Who was pulling dialogue out of our house, you know? Somebody on the writing staff had the same sense of humor.

Anyway, I'm going to miss this show. It's one of the few in my TV life that I could've watched forever. My TV schedule is going to feel very strange and more empty. Lost a lot of shows in recent years, but this is the longest-running. I'm sad I could never make it to a convention. The timing just never synced.

What will you miss most about "Supernatural" ending?
