LOL....wanna know what I always love, even if it's a little harsh, that everyone on here is so blunt and honest about how weird he looks, compared to the annoying tumblr stans who always over hype everything..."OMG HE'S SO F**KING HOT!!!"....

Oh God, the Hoechlin stans are already annoying me so I shudder to think what will happen when this airs.  I fully expect to see manips of Superman!Hoechlin with Dylan O'brien as Louis.

The powers that be seem to be high( a little to high if you ask me) on him.  Allegedly he didn't have to audition for the role.

I usually ignore all that Stan nonsense as most of those people are probably still in school at least, but it's just hilarious how they have to gush and start getting so overly graphic about everything....this is why (not to get off topic) as much as I will kind of miss TW, I'm glad this is the last season....

Hoechlin is probably always gonna get hired based on his looks.....he apparently had a terrible audition for TW, but was still cast.......again, he's not the worst, but I just get annoyed with "oh he/she is pretty lets cast them, and they will just wing it..." and yes that's an old Bill Bell casting troupe, ( not that I believe that's always been true) but it just sucks how these days there is never proper directors to give people like Hoechlin the proper acting technique...

I honestly do believe him being in "Everybody wants Some" (which was such a WTF movie btw) with Blake Jenner is the reason they even thought of him.

He looks good when he's in solo shots, but when he's next to Mehcad Brooks he looks tiny.  It looks strange seeing a Superman who can get his assed kicked by Jimmy(or James) Olsen.  He still looks too young, no amount of saying Kryptonians age slower than human will make me say otherwise.  I'm still baffled that he was giving this role without having to audition for it, Tyler Hoechlin is not that good of an actor.

This may be the worst Superman costume ever.  The boots wrinkle, the knees wrinkle, it is made of some messed up fabric and it really would benefit from some red shorts.  He looks like he is wearing motorcycle boots and shoulder pads.   I thought he had shins of steel?

      It sure was!  With respect, how does that make sense?  These men are young, I don't see that.

      I hope this played better than it sounds, because I'm imagining two separate scenes (the attack by Arnie, and later Charles getting shot). In my mind, it should have been a fluid single sequence. I wonder if or how often "bastard" was uttered in this scene. Fare thee well, Christopher Reeve. I've said it before, but pop culture's gain was daytime's definite loss. Imagine seeing HIM day after day, year after year, decade after decade, conceivably until they stopped producing soaps in NYC.   Well, that answers my "bastard" question. Good lord, the roads of Rosehill are packed with high-strung drivers and/or pedestrians. More sequences that I hope played better than they sound.

      I think Ben had already left while under Marland and only returned briefly to reconcile with Eve. The whole thing confuses me as I thought for a long time that Eve left the show to go be with him and that was when they reconciled, but it seems like he returned, they got back together, then he left and maybe they were still together until she left to join him? I have no idea.  It does seem like the interim writers were using some characters like Justin and Helena who were quickly dumped under Kobe/Long, which is a shame. Helena is one of those characters who likely always had a shelf life but Rose Alaio was such a vibrant screen presence, if Kobe/Long had just been patient, she likely would have fit in well in the Reva era.

      Also, the lawsuit story was not the right story to bring Naomi and Bill into a court battle since those types of lawsuits are usually resolved via settlements.

      I know that Sara did eventually become Carrie's therapist, but I was curious if the show had her make comments regarding Carrie's stunts of making it seem as though Justin was cheating on Jackie.  Given that Justin cheated on Sara with both Jackie and Brandy, I wondered if it was wise of her to counsel Carrie given the conflict of interest involved. @DRW50I think once Adam/Sara end up married.. Marland didn't see any reason to explore Sara's personal life after the actor playing Adam was released.  I know that Sara lasts until at least Christmas 1982 on the show.. but I don't think she ended up staying on for very long into 1983. The period between Marland quitting and Pam Long starting was the perfect time to clean house on characters that had outgrown their usefulness  (i.e. Ben, Evie, Sara, Jennifer, Morgan).. and tying up stories started by Marland that were too complex (Mona Enright, Mark/Jennifer/Amanda triangle).

      Unpopular opinion:  The focus on the soap opera tropes over the mysteries and crimes was partly what did the show in.  Also, featuring characters not involved in the legal, police, and criminal elements also hurt the show and took away what made it unique. Featuring characters like Jody, Raven, Sky, etc hurt the show long term.  The show ABCified starting in 1976/1977 and then went through a youthification period starting in 1981.

      I feel like the lawsuit storyline was resolved quickly because the show didn’t want to spring for more sets.
