So it's a show that asks what if Superman were cast as a father figure, a role normally reserved in the stories for Jonathan Kent. This take on Superman has some good moments. The two kids, however, are problematic. They're miscast since they look more like college sophomores than high school freshmen. They're also highly unlikeable. One is the cocky jock football player usually seen as the popular jerk in high school dramas, while the other kid is the whining emo-nerd whose dark facial expressions hint of possible mass-murder later in life. The boys don't fit well into the hopeful tone of Superman, but here's hoping later episodes improve on this.
