Show notes provided by Joe Peluso


Family dramas have been a TV staple almost from its inception with such classic offerings as Bonanza,The Waltons, Little House of the Prairie, 7th Heaven, and Friday Night Lights. Engaging storylines with well-rounded characters, often making their way through a troubled world that can often be cruel and unforgiving. We watch with rapt attention because we are entertained, but more importantly we are informed about our own lives and families. But what if your household is led
by Earth's Greatest Protector, and his partner, the best investigative journalist on the planet? Is their family life a cakewalk? Are there no sleepless nights in their home?
   Join hosts James, Joe, and returning guest Adrienne as they examine the unique family drama of "Superman and Lois".
   Can the awesome super-powers of The Man of Steel protect his family and friends from the trials and tribulations of living in small town America? Does the pursuit of truth on the printed page threaten to sunder relationships with close family members and treasured friends?
   How do you raise twin teenage boys when the heritage of their alien dad courses through their veins? Adolescence is hard enough to navigate without having to adjust to lasers blasting from your eyes and hearing a major chunk of the discord that fills the air? Mom and dad's "careers" often need to take a backseat from the distress of an entire planet when your children are experiencing extraordinary "growing pains".
   Mix all the chores of parenthood with super-villains, alien
invasions, averting planetary catastrophes, and being vilified for daring to print the truth, and you know what a typical day is like for Clark Kent and Lois Lane.
   This is live action Superman at its finest, but more importantly,
this TV show is a tour de force in the presentation of a family
drama.It will pull on your heartstrings as it rekindles the memories of love, devotion, and unbreakable bonds that form the backbones of our American families!
