10 Things Superman & Lois Has To Get Right

10. Scrap The Immaturity

If there’s one thing that The CW (the television network that develops the Arrowverse) is known for it's their tendency to show the problems with young relationships. The will they won’t they dynamic of Mon-El and Kara Zor-El. The unrequited love story of Barry Allen and Iris West. Or the rocky relationship of Oliver Queen and Felicity Smoak. No matter who you pick, you can’t deny that the developers of these shows love to shove a little bit of high school romance in for good measure.

This iteration of Lois and Clark are older, not to mention more mature than the other versions that have come before. There are other forms of entertainment rather than shallow love stories that are painfully formulaic to watch.

Rather than focusing on the way that Clark effects Lois, focus on the way that Clark effects the people around him, on his quest to carry on the mission of spreading hope, whether that be in or out of the red and blue tights.

Even if you do give a younger character a love story, you wouldn’t want to watch another episode of Smallville with it’s teenage love stories for five seasons. It’s better to do something different rather than trying to remake the wheel for the 20th time.
