In Lois & Clark's first season, Clark Kent (Dean Cain) and Lois Lane (Teri Hatcher) joined the ranks of Sam and Diane and David and Maddie as TV's sparkiest couples whose devoted fans couldn't wait to see get together. Season 2 takes the star-crossed duo--and the series--to "the next step"; a long-awaited first kiss (the episode "Lucky Leon"), and declarations of love, culminating in a season-ending marriage proposal ("And the Answer Is..."). But getting to that deliriously romantic rain-soaked moment is all the fun. There are diabolical villains for Superman to foil, including a resurrected (and bald) Lex Luthor (John Shea reprising his first-season role in "The Phoenix"), a trash-TV host (Raquel Welch in "Top Copy), the vengeful Prankster (Bronson Pinchot in "The Prankster" and "Return of the Prankster"), and, incredibly, a time-traveled Al Capone (William Devane in "That Old Gang of Mine"). There is also a romantic rival for Clark's affections, Deputy D.A. Mayson Drake (Farrah Forke in "Church of Metropolis") and for Lois's (Jim Pirri as agent Daniel Scardino in "Resurrection"). Lois and Clark's second season not only features improved special effects, but a stellar roster of character actors: Roger Corman veteran Dick Miller as Lois's uncle and Peter Boyle as Intergang kingpin Bill Church in "Church of Metropolis"; a reunited Sherman Hemsley and Isabel Sanford (The Jeffersons) in the Dean Cain-penned holiday episode, "Season's Greedings"; Bruce Campbell as Bill Church Jr. in "Individual Responsibility"; and Terry Kiser of Weekend at Bernie's fame as H.G. Wells in "Tempus Fugitive," the fan-favorite episode in which futuristic villain Tempus spills the beans to the "galactically stupid" Lois about Clark's secret identity. "That was worth the whole trip," he cackles, and for series fans, this benchmark (albeit fleeting) moment is probably worth the price of this super six-disc set. --Donald Liebenson

Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5
1) A Great Season [Rating: 5 out of 5]
The second season Lois and Clark is just a great season, especially for comic book fans. A lot of villains from the comics made an appearance this season; the Toyman, the Prankster, Metallo and so on. Denise Crosby also makes this season really interesting as she quests to bring Lex Luthor back from the dead. There is just so much fun to be had with this season. Overall, really great that I'd recommend to all Superman fans.2) Great Show [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Great show..good drama and solid writing. It's Superman as well so you just cannot go wrong. Must have, especially for diehard fans.3) High praise from a certified hipster [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I'm barely 21, which means I was just a wee little tyke when this show first aired. I loved it then, but I love it even more now. The chemistry between all actors is superb, the script writing is witty and charming, and even the cinematography and attention to aesthetic detail is really top-notch. Most Lois and Clark fans will agree that season 2 is the best season of them all, and arguably one of the best seasons of television in the last two decades. I'm a total hipster and I still think this show is the coolest ever, so let that be a lesson to those who say Lois and Clark is only for dorks!4) Feedback [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Fast shipping, product in very good condition, I would buy from this seller again!5) Great Show, Edited DVD [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I've seen this series a million times since it's inception. I just noticed, while watching Season 2 that the DVD has had some minor edits. The ending of the final episode of Season 2 is edited to where at the end Clark asks Lois an important question. Originally, Lois responds with her own question that ends in a rather cliff ending remark for the season. On the DVD, however, the final episode of Season 2 ends with Clark's question, which if you've never seen the show will leave you with less anticipation. The editing like this is petty and really brings down the onset of Season 3. But none the less, it's still worth the money you'd pay for the dvd, just keep in mind the actual ending and you can sense the anticipation we all had in 1996.
