Pilot Rewind: When Teri Hatcher and Dean Cain reimagined Superman in 'Lois & Clark'

The New Adventures of Superman premiered 15 years after Christopher Reeve made audiences believe a man could fly on the big screen.

Critics appreciated that the series gave Lois equal billing alongside the Man of Steel , grounding the superhero antics in a Moonlighting-esque romance.

The pilot's super-long runtime proved a dealbreaker for some.

"Making the costume" montages are always a superhero story highlight.

Tracy Scoggins is basically playing a proto- Samantha Jones .

Kim Cattrall thankfully got to be celebrated instead of shamed.

Lois & Clark : The New Adventures of Superman is currently streaming on Max .
