-->"I gotta start wearing some pants!"
*** Best part, in the beginning of the next episode....[[BrickJoke SHE DOES!]]

** Plus, the out of nowhere cameo of [[spoiler:Lobo.]] Naturally, it's love at first sight.

* In [[Recap/SupermanTheAnimatedSeriesS3E12E13Legacy "Legacy: Part 2"]], when reporters ask people about their opinion of Superman after the invasion of Earth, Lex Luthor is shown wearing a neck brace, and saying "No one man should have that much power..." with his jaw wired shut. It's the only funny moment in one big TearJerker of a two-part episode.

--->'''Clark:''' Touche.

** Even after being stripped of his powers and getting stranded back on Earth, Mxz insists that his plan to get Bizarro riled up against Superman is WorthIt. It's not until Bizarro gets angry at HIM that he backtracks.

--->'''Custodian''': Good evening, Ms Lane. Where's Mr Kent?\\

* Any time Granny Goodness speaks, thanks to being voiced by ''Creator/EdAsner]]''. Whoever made that casting choice is an insane genius, and the funny is only helped by Granny speaking like, well, a stereotypical kindly old granny. Even when she's ordering Supergirl beaten to death.

'''Lana:''' So will you; you deserve it. Someone quiet, understanding, patient--\\

** When the annoyed Titano swats Superman away, he lands right on a fairground high striker. Of course, his landing clangs the bell, which breaks off and strikes him square on the head with another clang. Cue Superman doing a slow burn which silently expresses him thinking either, ''Of all the...!'' or ''Son of a...!''

'''Bodyguard:''' ...But it's a duckie.\\

* In [[Recap/SupermanTheAnimatedSeriesS3E12E13Legacy "Legacy"]], Superman is brainwashed into serving Darkseid. After conquering a planet, he is [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar given an orgy with the Female Furies as a reward]]. Look at how jealous Kalibak is.

--->'''Maxima''': [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar No one has lasted this long with me]] - no one! You are...my equal!\\

* And let's not forget the GettingCrapPastTheRadar moment in [[Recap/SupermanTheAnimatedSeriesS1E1To3TheLastSonOfKrypton "The Last Son of Krypton"]].

-->'''Clark''': ''(lowers his glasses)'' [[{{Troll}} Well, Lois, the truth is, I'm actually Superman in disguise and I only pretend to be a journalist in order to hear about disasters as they happen, and then squeeze you out of the byline.]]\\

'''Lois''': You're a sick man, Kent.\\
'''Clark''': You asked.

'''Mxy:''' Okay, I'll give you a rule, you make me say, spell or otherwise reveal my name backwards, and I'll split until our dimensions come into alignment again in about, oh, three months, give or take.\\
'''Clark:''' [[TheUnpronounceable I can't even say your name forward]], [[ObfuscatingStupidity how am I supposed to say it backwards?]]\\
'''Mxy:''' No, dope! ''[does the "Hellooo! Is anyone in there?" knock on Superman's head]'' You don't have to say it backwards! You have to get ''me'' to say it!!\\

* In [[Recap/SupermanTheAnimatedSeriesS3E12E13Legacy "Legacy: Part 2"]], when reporters ask people about their opinion of Superman after the invasion of Earth, Lex Luthor is shown wearing a neck brace, and saying "no one man should have all that power" with his jaw wired shut. It's the only funny moment in one big TearJerker of a two-part episode.

'''Clark:''' [[TheUnpronouncable I can't even say your name forward]], [[ObfuscatingStupidity how am I supposed to say it backwards?]]\\

''*gets decked by Superman and sent flying* ''

'''Luthor:''' ''(even more ticked off)'' IMMEDIATELY!!

* Kyle Rayner (before he becomes Green Lantern) is depressed because he's working a boring job as a commercial artist at the Bugle rather than being a comic artist like he wants. ComicBook/JimmyOlsen encourages him not to give up. As he walks away, Kyle offers this deadpan line:

* Seriously, any moment involving Mxyzptlk is a Crowning Moment of Funny. For example, we have his FIRST meeting with Superman...

* And then there's Mxy's second appearance, where he's banished to Earth for three months as punishment for his repeated torment of "lesser lifeforms" in the third dimension, and told that he'll get his powers back only if he's shown that he can perform good deeds for said lifeforms instead.

* In "World's Finest":

* In "Legacy", Superman is brainwashed into serving Darkseid. After conquering a planet, he is [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar given an orgy with the Female Furies as a reward]]. Look at how jealous Kalibak is.

* Clark's SarcasticConfession to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0QVvbhMm24 Lois]] in "The Main Man, Part 1":

* In "Knight Time", Bane's "No way!" expression as Superman, dressed as Batman, beats the crap out of him with his bare hands.

** Also in "Knight Time", when Tim Drake (Robin) asks Superman how he can imitate Batman's voice so well:

* In "Warrior Queen", the whole sequence of Superman fighting Maxima is witnessed by an older woman. Her comments to her husband about everything going on, and her husband's responses to them...HILARIOUS!

* If we count the redubbed Kids' WB! promo spots, I nominate [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSQEE2TxIf0 this one]] using footage from the episode where Superman raced Flash:

* From Bizarro's intro episode:

* Kara in "Little Girl Lost", [[CasualDangerDialogue introducing her super identity]] to Superman:

* And let's not forget the GettingCrapPastTheRadar moment in the three-part pilot.

* Any time Granny Goodness speaks, thanks to being voiced by ''[[CrossDressingVoices Ed Asner]]''. Whoever made that casting choice is an insane genius, and the funny is only helped by Granny speaking like, well, a stereotypical kindly old granny. Even when she's ordering Supergirl beaten to death.
* In "My Girl" Lana Lang is getting ready to return to Smallville:

* In "Monkey Fun", one of the escaped monkeys starts jumping on a little kid. His mother tries to get him off, but another monkey starts crawling on her.

* The ending of "The Late Mr. Kent" has Clark call on Lana to help him fake not his "death" but his survival. She also uses the opportunity to screw with Lois and rub her nose in Lana and Clark's close relationship. The way Clark and Lana grin at each other after Lois leaves the room is just icing on the cake.
* From "Unity," after Supergirl does all of her chores -- including collecting eggs -- at SuperSpeed:

* In Livewire's debut episode, a construction worker actually agrees with the pre-Livewire Leslie Willis' vicious attacks on Superman, believing the Man of Steel to be too nice to be real. And then this idiot construction worker almost causes a serious accident and Superman has to save him and a lot of people in the process. Looks like that guy had to eat his own words...

** From the same episode, the scene where after Leslie's been zapped and just about to activate her Livewire powers for the first time. She's watching a news report where Superman is being questioned by reporters about the accident. At least two of them insinuate that Superman may have allowed Leslie to get fried on purpose as revenge for all the trash talk she'd been slinging at him. As the second reporter reminds Superman: "She said some pretty awful things about you. Maybe this was your way of paying her back." It may not be intentional but it is funny.
* In "Legacy Part II", when reporters ask people about their opinion of Superman after the invasion of Earth, Lex Luthor is shown wearing a neck brace, and saying "no one man should have all that power" with his jaw wired shut. It's the only funny moment in one big TearJerker of a two-part episode.

* In "Prototype", Lex is presenting his company's newest invention, a battlesuit intended to give the police strength and powers comparable to Superman's. We get this brilliant exchange:

* In "Bizarro's World," his vicious, slavering alien "pet," who routinely tries to maul him, runs in terror at Lois' scream.

* In the fourth episode, "Fun and Games", Bruno Mannheim's yacht is attacked... by a ''giant rubber duck''. Mannheim's bodyguards are less than helpful.

** Also, the part where Joker snatches the flower that is in Luthor's limo is priceless. [[http://worldsfinestonline.com/WF/superman/bios/villains/jokerharley/02.jpg The looks on the two villain's faces really justify it]].

'''Lois:''' You're getting sloppy, Smallville. This paragraph's loaded with typos.\\

--->'''Mxy:''' ''(disappears with Powered Armor)''\\
'''Gsp:''' [[ThreeTwoOne 5... 4... 3...]]\\
'''Mxy:''' ''(reappears)'' '''''NUTS! NUTS! NUUUTS!''''' ''(points at his wife)'' [[PreemptiveShutUp NOT. ONE. WORD.]]

'''Lois''': The guy's kind of a pest, is he?\\

--->'''Lois:''' You look happy, Smallville.\\
'''Clark:''' I was expecting a visitor, but he can't make it.\\
'''Lois:''' ''(begins munching on a carrot)'' I hear ya. I hear ya. Every time my sister visits, she moves right on in and stays and stays and... ''(looks the carrot)'' Why am I eating this?

'''Mxy:''' No, dope! You don't have to say it backwards! You have to get ''me'' to say it!!\\

--->'''Clark:''' Look, little guy, I'm getting sick of this. If it's a fight you want--\\

'''Clark:''' Fine. I'll meet you on the roof in twenty minutes. Just let me proof-read this article.\\
'''Mxyzpltk:''' No stalling! ''I'll'' edit the rag! ''(takes paper from Clark and begins crossing out letters; the second he's done, he starts to vanish)'' HEY- WHAT- NO!\\

--->'''Lobo:''' ''Finally''! I've been trying to get in touch with you all day!\\

** Pretty much everything that comes out of Lobo's mouth is hilarious, but the following is particularly funny in its delivery:
--->'''Lobo:''' ''Finally''! I've been trying to get in touch with you all day!\\
'''Superman:''' Who are you?\\
'''Lobo:''' ''(deadpan)'' Oh, I'm sorry. [[MyCard My card]].\\
''(Lobo decks Superman through a building)''

*** A little later, while he's in the half-ruined police station waiting for Superman to show up:

'''Mxyzpltk:''' No stalling! ''I'll'' edit the rag! ''(Takes paper from Clark and begins crossing out letters. The second he's done he starts to vanish)'' HEY- WHAT- NO!\\

--->'''Mxy:''' (disappears with Powered Armor)\\

'''Mxy:''' (reappears) '''''NUTS! NUTS! NUUUTS!''''' (points at his wife) [[PreemptiveShutUp NOT. ONE. WORD.]]

** He spends the ''next'' three months (which in the Fifth Dimension, have names like George, Relish, and Pants) building PoweredArmor (complete with pants zipper!), goes to fight Superman, and doesn't last three seconds. Whatever happened is a NoodleIncident, but his reaction after the defeat - along with that of his counterpart, Gsptlsnz, the moment he leaves - sells it:

* And then there's Ol' Myxie's second appearance, where he's banished to Earth for three months as punishment for his repeated torment of "lesser lifeforms" in the third dimension, and told that he'll get his powers back only if he's shown that he can perform good deeds for said lifeforms instead.

'''Mxz:''' Yeah, heh. SO, press your cape?\\

** Cue Superman putting Myxie in charge of keeping a look on Bizarro on the alien planet he left him on, complete with being forced to put his fake city together so Bizarro will have a place to "protect" and getting mauled by Bizarro's vicious alien "dog". At the end, Superman is watching the whole thing from the Fortress of Solitude with the biggest, smuggest, most self-satisfied grin this side of {{Superdickery}}.

--->'''Mxz:''' ''(being shaken by Bizarro)'' Oh brother, this was a bad idea...

--->'''Lois''': I'll get some iodine for that cut. ''(through clenched teeth)'' [[BandageWince Burning.]] ''[[BandageWince Stinging.]]'' [[BandageWince Iodine]].
*** The cherry on top is the look on Bruce's face when she goes to get said iodine: pure bedroom eyes mixed with amusement at her comment. Oh, Bruce. You dog.
*** The scene begins with this exchange -- the douchey yet teasing way Bruce delivers the line is what sells it.
---->'''Lois:''' I can't believe you lied to me!\\

'''Bruce:''' ''(wincing hilariously)'' Ow!

** The Joker is flying Luthor's jet and trying to shoot down the heroes. He asks Lex (whom he has tied up and is about to murder) for help:
--->'''Lex:''' It's a ''red'' switch.\\
'''Joker:''' ''(looks at a panel FULL of red switches)'' But which...aw, the heck with it! ''(pushes ALL of them)''

* The ending of "The Late Mr. Kent" Has Clark call on Lana to help him fake not his "death" but his survival. She also uses the opportunity to screw with Lois and rub her nose in Lana and Clark's close relationship. The way Clark and Lana grin at each other after Lois leaves the room is just icing on the cake.

As the second reporter reminds Superman: "She said some pretty awful things about you. Maybe this was your way of paying her back." It may not be intentional but it is funny.

** Then, three months later, when Mxy shows up at the Daily Planet:

** Then, when Mxy shows up at the Daily Planet;

** He builds PoweredArmor (complete with pants zipper!), goes to fight Superman, and doesn't last three seconds. Whatever happened is a NoodleIncident, but his reaction after the defeat just sells it.
*** His counterpart, Gsptlsnz, sells it perfectly the moment he leaves.
---->'''Mxy:''' (disappears with Powered Armor)\\

** The fact that in the fifth dimension, months apparently have names like George, Relish, and Pants.

* And then there's Ol' Myxie's second appearance, where he's banished to Earth for three months as punishment for his repeated torment of "lesser lifeforms" in the third dimension, and told that he'll get his powers back only if he's shown that he can perform good deeds for said lifeforms instead. Cue Superman putting Myxie in charge of keeping a look on Bizarro on the alien planet he left him on, complete with being forced to put his fake city together so Bizarro will have a place to "protect" and getting mauled by Bizarro's vicious alien "dog".

** What really sells it is the fact that Superman is watching the whole thing from the Fortress of Solitude with the biggest, smuggest, most self-satisfied grin this side of {{Superdickery}}.
