* In the pilot, a snake is released into Lex's room while he's distracted, making you think it's an assassination attempt. It's actually a training exercise so he can intimidate the snake into backing down with a blood-curdling stare.
** Even more awesome is that Creator/JohnShea actually ''did'' stare it down when the snake trainer they hired didn't show up.
* Episode 3 has Superman, incensed at Lex's endangering lives to test his abilities, pointing a gun at him, firing, and catching the bullet before it reaches Lex.
-->'''Superman:''' You want to see how fast I am?
** 'Faster than a speeding bullet' indeed.
* In episode 8, Clark has his first encounter with kryptonite, bringing him to his knees. When the villain, Trask drops a hunk of it in front of him to kill him prior to murdering his parents, Clark crawls ''towards'' the rock, grabs it, and throws it into a lake even as he screams in pain from its burning him. He then proceeds to beat Trask into submission ''without his powers''. Don't mess with Superman's family!
* The first season finale, for the Daily Planet crew. All year long, Lex Luthor has been getting away with murder, literally and figuratively. At the end of every nefarious plot, Lex is still untouchable, and Superman winds up outside Lex’s window delivering an “I’ll get you someday” speech that Lex is totally unimpressed with (it’s ''not'' the only Superman continuity to have these.) However, after he [[ThisMeansWar makes the Daily Planet go boom]], Lois, Clark, Perry, Jimmy, and Cat put their investigative skills together, finding proof of Lex’s evil deeds, this and others. Clark’s only contribution as suited Superman was... getting put in a Kryptonite cage in two minutes flat. ''The Planet crew did what Supes and all his power couldn’t and took Lex down.''
* Jimmy beating up Clyde Barrow in "That Old Gang of Mine" for Clark's "murder".
* "Whine, Whine, Whine": Superman is being sued by Calvin Dregg, a man who is pretending to have been injured by the Man of Steel when he saved his life. During a court session, Superman detects a bomb intended for Lois and Dan Scardino and flies it out of the courtroom. Calvin pretends to have been injured by Superman's actions yet again. However, Calvin's wife Elise, sick of both his lies and his abusive treatment of her throughout the episode, exposes Calvin for the greedy fraud he is, leading to the case being dismissed.
* Lois and Clark ''finally'' getting married.
* After Tempus gets himself elected President and gets Clark stuck in time, Lois recruits an alternate Clark who, in his previous appearance, had never used his powers in public before. He steps up and saves the day.

* From the episode "Tempus Fugitive" Tempus's TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to Lois just because [[WishFulfillment it's what every fan in the history of the franchise has been wanting to say for so long]]
--> '''Lois''': If you wanna kill Superman, I don't know why you're going to Smallville or 1966.\\
'''Tempus''': She doesn't know yet. Oh, this is good. This is really good. Um, Lois, did you know that, in the future, you're revered at the same level as Superman? Why there are books about you, statues, an interactive game. You're even a breakfast cereal.\\
'''Lois''': Really?\\
'''Tempus''': Yes. But, as much as everybody loves you, there is one question that keeps coming up: "How dumb was she?" Here, I'll show you what I mean. Look\\
[[PaperThinDisguise (puts glasses on)]]\\
'''Tempus''': I'm Clark Kent.\\
[Takes glasses off]\\
'''Tempus''': No, [[LargeHam I'm Superman!!!!]]\\
[Puts glasses on]\\
'''Tempus''': Mild-mannered reporter.\\
[Takes glasses off]\\
'''Tempus''': Superhero. Hello! [[CaptainObvious Duh!]] Clark Kent is Superman. Ha, ha, ha. Well, that was worth the whole trip. To actually meet the most galactically stupid woman who ever lived.
