This show is just unapologetically genuine and inspiring. It's not afraid to be itself no matter how campy or boy scout-ish it gets. Which is exactly what Superman represents. And that is what makes it perfect.
Yeah, to paraphrase one comic or the like, "Clark Kent is who I am, Superman is something I do." IE he sees himself as Clark first, and Superman second.
Tyler Hoechlin had already secured his place on the Mount Rushmore of Supermen way before this magnificent final season, but these last few episodes in particular are undeniable proof to anyone who doubts how freaking good he is. He plays the role his own way, but he is at minimum a match for any previous actor you could name (and that’s no minor achievement when you consider how many great interpretations there have been). I really do think that-taking his Clark and Superman as a whole-nobody (and I do mean nobody) has played this character better than Tyler has.
Same. I loved Christopher Reeve, but he only had the movies to explore the character and didn't get to really flesh it out. Dean Cain was a favorite because I was little, it was Superman, but goodness it was campy. Routh did great, but everyone including the writers and designers wanted Reeve, and I liked that movie overall, it was an incredibly slow burn. I thought Cavill was awesome for what he had to work with. A lot of the problem I had with Cavill wasn't even him, but the fans. The fans just absolutely couldn't be pleased with anything and it just all became tiring and I feel it bled into the movies. As far as what is coming up in the next movie, I think they have screwed up by cutting this show short in order to make their movie. This has been one of the best CW shows ever, and the best of Superman. They're clipping their own wings. The guy playing Superman next has to compete with this portrayal that has been build up since the Supergirl show in addition to the Henry Cavill fans. I feel like it is destined to flop. All because this is what many fans wanted, and because the people in charge have this weird fear of competing Supermen, they cut out the one people like. Makes no sense.
@@Omn1Media Love your reactions man, I always come to your and Blind Wave’s channels, the only 2 reaction accounts I need to see. You two are the best in the game.
I wasn't convinced in 2016 when Tyler first wore the suit, and I never fully understood the character. In 2024, Tyler is Superman to me. He embodies everything I believe about the character on and off screen.
YESSS PREACH!!! I'm a 2000s baby and grew up with Brandon Routh as Supes, then Henry Cavil, and I love them both for their own reasons, but Tyler is MY Superman forever! I absolutely love him. Even though technically him in Supergirl and the crossovers is a different Clark, but Tyler has nailed it every single time! I really really hope more people come to appreciate everything he's done for the character!
Comes down to writing. The writing in supergirl and similar shows were mostly mediocre tbh but here they took it more seriously on character development, acting and the scenes themselves for a CW show.
Given the budget constraints, the flashback scenes and TV images was an effective way to show Superman being Superman without big expensive CGI special effects. Outstanding way of showing how hard it is to be Superman in ways that most people never think about. I'm assuming that limiting the action this season, outside of the Doomsday fight, means they can throw their $$ on a big closing fight between Superman and Lex's war suit.
Fun fact: Tyler was a baseball player. Started at a young age and played all the way to college until an injury his junior year forced him to quit and focus on acting full time. And in the two other roles I've seen him in, his character also played baseball.
This show has such a good representation of a good, healthy friendship between two men. They didn't start off as friends and grew to become best of friends. Hell, Clark was his best man! I love their moments together throughout the whole show but especially this season!
Tyler Hoechlin is my new standard for Superman, I wait every Tuesday for your video, I don't touch the internet until I get the notification that this came out. Truly every reaction you post is great. This is a great show. This is probably my favorite episode of the show, when the series finishes I'll rewatch your reactions and truly decide but this is a beautiful episode.
I was fighting the tears by the time he was doing the interview. I loved this episode, it didn't have action or more about the main plot, but it was a great take on how Clark's life was
I’ve been looking forward to your reaction video since the episode ended last night-I’ve only recently found your channel, but it’s a wonderful companion to the show-you’re great at highlighting what makes it so good. For me it’s the best reaction channel and I’ll miss these videos a great deal when this show ends in a few short weeks. Now to last night’s show; a truly beautiful episode in an incredible season of the best Superman adaptation I have seen. For me, Tyler Hoechlin has in this season cemented his status as the GOAT. Nobody (and I do mean nobody) has done it better.
Which really says something because the previous actors that have been Supes all have been well loved and cherished as someone's Superman. For me aswell, I grew up with Henry Cavil, and I love his version for many reasons but Tyler is just perfection! He nails it in every single scene, he truly is a fantastic actor for emotion and badassness! Love him so much!
19:25 I love that you called it Flashtime!! This show has the absolute BEST representation of Superman! Superman is his alter ego. He is Clark Kent!! And I absolutely love Tyler's portrayal of Clark. Watching this show makes me wanna be a better man! Every single funny moment, sad moment, awesome superman fight scenes or his feats of strength, every single one just hits so perfectly! As a 2000s baby, I grew up with Brandon Routh, and Henry Cavil, I love both of them for their own reasons, but Tyler will always be MY Superman. I love him so much!
What I absolutely freaking LOVED about this episode was how we got to see how keeping The Secret affected Clark. Not Superman, but Clark. The sacrifices he had to make because he thought he was doing the right thing. When Lois explained to the boys what it was like for him growing up, it really highlighted how difficult it was on Clark from a very young age. And the interview with the Planet was incredible - “just a regular guy.” And the ending with Jimmy, burying the hatchet with him… I was so glad they ended the episode like that. You know there’s going to be massive, massive fall-out from this decision, but you know what? For now, Clark just gets to take a breath and enjoy living his truth.
The support Clark has from his family influences his decisions so much. He is selfless because he has such incredible support. From his parents to Lois and his kids. It is a great show. Being able to take a deep breath is very important and not something everyone gets to do. Great example for a hero but more so for a husband and father.
THIS IS SUPERMAN, my god a superhero show this good when you can have an episode like this where the wasnt a single fight, in fact i think we only see Clark in full Superman suit in the dinner, but is more gripping that most action shows. the character work is amazing, i care for everybody and i get their problems, it never get overdramatic or the character need to make stupide desicions to make the plot insteresting. the fact that this is the first time we are watching this version of Jimmy Olsen and i care for him and Clark relationship as if i have meet him from season 1. i just hope at least one writer from the futuro DCU stories get to watch this show and get to make something half as good as this
This show is literally the top tier of Superman anything to me they do the drama so damn good & that bullet time diner scene has to be the best thing ever! He moved so fast & looked at Lois once & knew the decision he had to make 👌🏼
This show is incredible and no one talks about it. This tyler dude is almost on Reeve's level and DESTROYS cavill on a fucking cheap CW show. The part where the bullet is flying to him, and he looks at lois with like a defeated look, and takes off his glasses to rip his shirt off is one of my all time fav tv/movie scenes. His eyes/face looking at her was incredible acting without saying a word. It's a travesty this show is getting cancelled, the showrunners said they had planned for 7 seasons and now they compressed the next three seasons into this one. Pretty sure his reveal was supposed to be for that seventh season.
I love watching your reviews. I have been seriously I’ll in hospital so only got to watch the episode this morning and I couldn’t wait to watch your beautiful reactions. You are so in tune with this show xxxxx
Did you not notice the easter eggs regarding Jimmy asking him if he was superman?? The "saves" every time there was a game. Look over the photos and the "saves" again...(a nod to OG Chris Reeve)
@@JAZZYLGPRODUCTIONSLLC I wasn't sure if it was a reference to The new adventures of Superman (Episode 1 he gives them a helping hand to get into space). Also, Superman Returns the shuttle scene attached the plane Lois is on. Soooo many deep cuts and a heartwarming series. Trying to get my OH to watch it - shes being so stubborn lol
His casting was quite the magic trick, wasn't it? Somehow they managed to find an actor that's really good, who comes across as compassionate and mature as the character, looks enough like the previous one while looking a bit more like he has some family resemblance with the Jordan actor!
There are people out there that are so deep into loving the Snyderverse that they have skipped this show and that is insane. This show has been some of the best Superman story telling on screen. I have loved Tyler's Superman over the last few years, but this episode just put him at the top of the "Best Superman" list.
I was waiting for your reaction. This is my favorite episode too. I’ve been reading Superman books since the 90s and the character driven stories were always my favorite issues. This episode was inspirational, it’s about family, it’s about values, it’s about their lives and I loved it! Well Done…A+
This was definitely favorite of all time. Tyler Hoechlin did an amazing job as both Superman and Clark Kent. He did great in acting in every step of the way. We are gonna miss this show and all of the cast members. I hope this show end with a bang
You can make an incredible episode without fights and real villain, probably in my top 3 of this show. And that Jimmy Olsen actor was very good. I wished he wasn't introduced so late in the show. That slowtime scene in the dinner with the bullet and the look on Lois is peak Superman & Lois. Now kick ass time please.
I wasn't expecting that I thought Smallville will be the only ones to know but he told the hole world best episode of the season just wow this episode knows how to make you sad
I love this show, and it’s characters. Tyler pulls off goofy and nerdy Clark perfectly. That flash time bullet scene was so emotional. Although it did actually make me wonder, for the first time tbh, what happens to his clothes when he does his super change? Where do they go? How do the buttons on his shirt magically reappear after he has burst them off? 😂
Both big reveals, to Lana and then this one, was all so perfectly done. I'm just shocked at how well they did this. Music, dialog, everything was perfect.
That was an emotional episode. I just hope that nothing terrible happens now that everyone knows. I don't want a lot of enemies to suddenly appear and seek revenge.
If only the upcoming movie could use this as a blueprint on how to make a compelling Superman production. It’s fascinating how a small budget TV show can nail this character in a way we haven’t seen since Superman II.
This show is hands down the best adaptation of Superman, period. No matter what anyone says, Tyler Hoechlin is my all-time favorite Superman. He brings every side of Clark Kent and Superman to life-whether he’s dorky, funny, heartbroken, or fierce, he nails it every time. And Bitsie Tulloch? She’s my definitive Lois Lane. Her emotional depth in every scene is unmatched; she brings such intensity to those powerful moments. Season 4 alone cemented her as the ultimate Lois Lane in my eyes. The entire cast brings their A-game, no doubt. Even the previous Jonathan actor did a solid job, and Michael Bishop has been incredible in the role as well. I could keep raving about this show, but there’s just too much to say. This show deserved at least seven seasons, but I’m glad they’re going out with an epic finale. #SUPERMAN&LOIS4EVER
This episode was such a great allegory for coming out. Me watching this episode, sobbing uncontrollably because I haven't come out to my grandparents as trans and terrified I won't be able to before they pass.
It looks like Clark and Lois Forgot that the world knowing your secret is what tore bizarro superman’s family apart and wherever doomsday is right now when he finds out about this, it could trigger him to come after Superman again
Jordan having social anxiety problems as the opening defining line by the series premier monologue admittedly felt like a diversity grab when I First saw it. but then Clark demonstrating how he was a recluse, isolating himself, and antagonizing people around him, whether Lana as a romantic possibility, or Jimmy feeling rejected despite his numerous offers of friendship, or how even his bullies(Kyle) focused on him. Clark may not have been diagnosed with social anxiety but he demonstrated he lived like he had those difficulties. That bullet time where he had to synthesize a lifetime of fear and behavior, and then risk vulnerability. But also presumably not retcon it. This may actually be Novell storytelling for the franchise. Which is crazy to think about considering how old this franchise is. have we ever seen the Superman reveal himself fully to the world and not get undone. One of the top film TV moments of all time. Definitely makes Tyler Hoechlin earn a place in history as one of the greatest Superman actors and one of my personal favorites.
Before this episode I was a die hard Henry Cavill fanboy, and until now you couldn’t tell me otherwise, now I see Tyler is truly the best of both. Reeve was the best Clark, Cavill was the best Superman, Tyler really embraces and portrays them both the best. I really hope the writers of this series get a spot in James Guns universe, and I hope Guns version of Superman picks up on this idea and digs deeper into it. I really hope we are all not let down by Junes Superman
I did think that maybe one of the Smallville folk would get shot. Kyle maybe stepped in front or if Clark moved and the waitress behind gets the bullet. That whole scene and the following were done beautifully.
One of my favorite episodes ever for any Superman Series. I wonder how many lawsuits Clark will receive now for damages from his saves and from the injuries caused to villains or bystanders.
They actually did the revealing the secret to the world thing in the comics a few years ago except in that Clark did it just because he felt like it (instead of multiple things showing that keeping the secret might not be the best option) and Jon actually wanted a normal life still (he made a whole new fake identity so he could go to college without drawing attention and an active shooter showed up at the school before he could even walk through the entrance so he revealed himself to stop them). The secret was forced back in now by Luthor though and Jon can lead a relatively normal life
This show solidified that Tyler Hoeclin is the 2ND BEST (behind Christopher Reeve) Clark Kent/Superman. He understands the core of who Clark and Superman is. The writers for this show really know and love these characters.
Lois in the shooting scene frozen is like "what are u gonna do about it, i wanna see that shit". Another truth about women, you men always be a freaking men, no matter what
Superman "I stand for TRUTH.....justice...and the American way" also Superman "LIES to the girl saying he went to his truck for the wallet, LIES about not being Superman (until the end of the episode)
Yes. And Batman hates criminals but vigilantism _is_ a crime (there are plenty of similar examples; that's just the first one that came to my mind). Superheros usually have to straddle that line.
I have no idea how or why this episode hit me right in the feels. Nothing crazy happened or a death or terminal illness type thing. I can see how people in the LGBTQ commumity could relate in a coming out way but that doesnt apply to me. It just so well written. Im glad to know I wasnt the only one that reacted this way to the episode.
Bruh I agree with you dude they should have killed lex luthor over making doomsday kill Lois’s dad and making doomsday taking Superman heart if they literally kept this lex luthor that I hate alive and not killed him off im blaming The director and producer And Warner Bros for letting these guys direct this CW DC series
This show is just unapologetically genuine and inspiring. It's not afraid to be itself no matter how campy or boy scout-ish it gets. Which is exactly what Superman represents. And that is what makes it perfect.
I still somebody who likes this corny ahhh stuff has a swollen brain

@Lidoe I don't care about the synder films there just movies.

This episode just defined the reason why Superman is special to me and many people. The Man of Steel is just a guy who wants to do the right thing.

i can't with this show. So invested, sooo sooo so good. I wanted at least one more season.
That diner scene was a tear jerker.
The look on Lois' face in the diner after the reveal. She's so proud of him.
Fun fact: Tyler was a baseball player. Started at a young age and played all the way to college until an injury his junior year forced him to quit and focus on acting full time. And in the two other roles I've seen him in, his character also played baseball.
You just made me love him even more! Did not know that was possible! :D
Friends who accept you as you are is such an inspiring, powerful, and uplifting message. I am going to miss this show.

Yup, Tyler is my favorite Superman actor. He gets everything about Clark and SM. So sad this is ending so soon.

but then Clark demonstrating how he was a recluse, isolating himself, and antagonizing people around him, whether Lana as a romantic possibility, or Jimmy feeling rejected despite his numerous offers of friendship, or how even his bullies(Kyle) focused on him.
Clark may not have been diagnosed with social anxiety but he demonstrated he lived like he had those difficulties.
That bullet time where he had to synthesize a lifetime of fear and behavior, and then risk vulnerability. But also presumably not retcon it. This may actually be Novell storytelling for the franchise. Which is crazy to think about considering how old this franchise is. have we ever seen the Superman reveal himself fully to the world and not get undone.
One of the top film TV moments of all time. Definitely makes Tyler Hoechlin earn a place in history as one of the greatest Superman actors and one of my personal favorites.
Before this episode I was a die hard Henry Cavill fanboy, and until now you couldn’t tell me otherwise, now I see Tyler is truly the best of both. Reeve was the best Clark, Cavill was the best Superman, Tyler really embraces and portrays them both the best. I really hope the writers of this series get a spot in James Guns universe, and I hope Guns version of Superman picks up on this idea and digs deeper into it. I really hope we are all not let down by Junes Superman
They should have the whole interview online !
i would have like to see this part at Supergirl, we didn't hear her speak when she was revealed :(
Same
I did think that maybe one of the Smallville folk would get shot. Kyle maybe stepped in front or if Clark moved and the waitress behind gets the bullet. That whole scene and the following were done beautifully.
Amazing episode!!
One of my favorite episodes ever for any Superman Series. I wonder how many lawsuits Clark will receive now for damages from his saves and from the injuries caused to villains or bystanders.
This is one of my favorite episodes
They actually did the revealing the secret to the world thing in the comics a few years ago except in that Clark did it just because he felt like it (instead of multiple things showing that keeping the secret might not be the best option) and Jon actually wanted a normal life still (he made a whole new fake identity so he could go to college without drawing attention and an active shooter showed up at the school before he could even walk through the entrance so he revealed himself to stop them). The secret was forced back in now by Luthor though and Jon can lead a relatively normal life
this is the best episode so far top 1st
I used to watch Road To Perdition starring Tom Hanks. Tyler played his son.
I haven't seen this kind of TV superhero unmasking since Supergirl.
Best Superman ❤
This show solidified that Tyler Hoeclin is the 2ND BEST (behind Christopher Reeve) Clark Kent/Superman. He understands the core of who Clark and Superman is. The writers for this show really know and love these characters.
Sometimes we forget to live the simple things in life.
Denise is the mvp of this episode 🎉
My god this show is so good. How DC and warner bros are letting go of it , ido not know. Stupid. Deserves more seasons.
They don't want rival shows since they are making sure movies and tv characters can cross over
Superman may use his powers to save people, Clark Kent is a true superhero.
4:38 JIMMY OLSEN!!! 😁😁😁
I have a funny feeling that now everyone knows they are going to kill him off again
Smallville will always be his home
Somebody savee meeee
Did you pick up on the saves from Superman 1 and 2? Does this mean that the Donner movies are cannon? Maybe just a call back
Somehow Tyler's superman actually feels like a true Continuation of Christopher Reeve Superman after Superman 2
@@piyushy5877did you pick up the Christopher Reeve superman themes in the score? This series is so amazing in every which way?
3:11 hey idk you noticed this but I just thought I point it out I thought I was going crazy for a second
Lois in the shooting scene frozen is like "what are u gonna do about it, i wanna see that shit". Another truth about women, you men always be a freaking men, no matter what
What Chanel this on it’s not on the bbc iPlayer yet if it does get to be on there
3:09 Loop
clicked on this video so damn quick
They need $300,000. How much was that grill going for? 😮
Sophia…Sophie…sofa?😏🛋️
Where is Lex? What is his new move
nooo only 2 more episodes
We have 3 left
@ oh I thought that episode 9 was the last one
Superman "I stand for TRUTH.....justice...and the American way"
also Superman "LIES to the girl saying he went to his truck for the wallet, LIES about not being Superman (until the end of the episode)
Yes. And Batman hates criminals but vigilantism _is_ a crime (there are plenty of similar examples; that's just the first one that came to my mind). Superheros usually have to straddle that line.
This version of Jimmy low key creeps me out 😬
this bro cries every episode lol
It's an emotional show.
I have no idea how or why this episode hit me right in the feels. Nothing crazy happened or a death or terminal illness type thing. I can see how people in the LGBTQ commumity could relate in a coming out way but that doesnt apply to me. It just so well written. Im glad to know I wasnt the only one that reacted this way to the episode.
I’m still disappointed they didn’t kill of Lex Luthor only getting beaten by Clark superman
I highly doubt they will kill him at all. That isn't Superman's thing but who knows, maybe Lex will take himself out by the end
Bruh I agree with you dude they should have killed lex luthor over making doomsday kill Lois’s dad and making doomsday taking Superman heart if they literally kept this lex luthor that I hate alive and not killed him off im blaming The director and producer And Warner Bros for letting these guys direct this CW DC series
@@AllOtha bruh right this is ridiculous
They probably will have Lex in prison but I feel in this universe. Lex gets killed.
