1* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: In "[[Recap/TheNewAdventuresOfSupermanS2E7 Luthor's Loco Looking Glass]]", Luthor (escaping after having left ComicBook/JimmyOlsen in a DeathTrap) taunts Superman that, "You'll never find your friend or me." Was he just trying to torment his nemesis, or was he trying to distract Superman (knowing that Supes [[SmallStepsHero would put more value on saving a hostage than capturing the villain]])? Either way, it failed.
2* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: In "Luthor's Loco Looking Glass", Luthor is making his escape through a TunnelOfLove filled with horror figures. He gloats that none of this can scare him. At exactly that point, he pulls up to the shadowy silhouette of a new figure, Superman himself, who proves him wrong.
3* GeniusBonus: The title of "[[Recap/TheNewAdventuresOfSupermanS3E2 Can a Luthor Change His Spots?]]" works even if all one knows is the phrase "[[PunBasedTitle can a leopard change his spots]]?" However, it's even more apropos if the viewer knows the full verse (Jeremiah 13:23), which places a hardened evildoer beginning to do the right thing (as Lex pretends he's doing) on equal likelihood with a leopard or a human changing their fur/skin color.
4* HilariousInHindsight: I.C. Harris, the Parasite {{expy}} from "The Pernicious Parasite", bears a striking resemblance to the late Creator/BrionJames, who voiced the ''actual'' Parasite in ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries''.
