I'm so happy this show is so good. I love it.
Superman is my favorite superhero and I watch everything he's in, which means I've seen the old Superman movies (of course, no one yet has topped Chris Reeve's perfect, definitive take on the character), I watched Lois & Clark when it was on TV, then Smallville, then Superman Returns (not good), the Man of Steel movies (which are sadly horrible imo), and all the cartoons, from the TAS to the JL shows. I've even seen the 1940's live action serial with Kirk Alyn and Noel Neill (seriously) and the George Reeves movie Superman and the Mole Men.
So I was always going to watch this anyway, even if it sucked, just because.
But I'm so glad it turned out to be this good! I had really low expectations actually, because the CW superhero shows all feel kinda the same, but this one, surprisingly didn't!
It also seems obvious with the complete lack of acknowledgement of Kara that the showrunners don't want to be tied in to the Arrowverse (despite the fact that Clark and Lois were introduced there), but they're probably going to have to bring that up at some point I assume.
