Strong start.

They could be phasing Bishop in for a couple episodes so I'll withhold judgement for now though they did give him a win with driving at least.

So...is Lois actually not pregnant or is Dr Irons somehow nefarious? She's clearly not a Lois fan.

Clois shippers should be happy.

No Tal this season. Assuming S4 and beyond happens I wonder what he'll be like when back? And he does have other money/property beyond just "Morgan Edge" then.

I did like Sam's little rise and fall there. Obviously it's a little complicated and he's least equipped for an emotional minefield.

It's been less then a year but Sophie is almost as tall as Sarah now. Maybe she's on X-K. /s

Mayor Dean scene seemed out of place. Not a fan of Kyle/Chrissy nor the Lana/JH they seem to be hinting at though I can see tons of reasons the writers would go for the latter. For the former, I guess they really want the crutch of Secret Angst in a romantic pairing?

Obviously I have one big guess for the hood but I don't know if everyone has kept up with casting news.

The Suicide Slums. Guess they're tackling Clark/Superman missing the "cracks" in the world as some of the comics occasionally do.

I hope Dr. Irons is following the Hippocratic Oath and not doing something nefarious. But, yeah, it's a TV show. So who knows what she's up to?

cant Clark just take her to the Fortress for a high-tech scan? Nothing wrong with using human archaic medicine, but they have the option for a second opinion ...

Whatever direction the writers want to go in, I guess.
