from Totally Fushed, October 2003

Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman was, of course, a most brilliant TV show. But just in case you’ve forgotten how good this programme of giants (which aired between 1993 and 1997) was, here are some quotes from the series… Oh, and yeah, these may not be exact quotes, as I’m just taking them from memory… But you gotta be impressed with my memory. Or my obsession. I LOVE SUPERMAN! AND TO A LESSER EXTENT TERI HATCHER!!
