* "Tempus Fugitive" arguably has the most well-known CMOF of the series with this exchange:
-->'''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. ''(puts on glasses)'' I'm Clark Kent. ''(takes glasses off)'' No, I'm Superman. ''(puts glasses back on)'' Mild-mannered reporter. ''(takes glasses back off)'' Superhero. Hello! 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.
* From "Operation Blackout"
-->'''Clark Kent:''' Gee, Lois, if you were thirsty, all you had to do was say something.
-->'''Lois Lane:''' Clark, this isn't just any beer!
-->'''Clark Kent:''' I know. "It goes with sun and good times!"
* From "Meet John Doe"
-->'''Malcom:''' Gotta go. Gonna jump to my death soon. Buh-bye.
* The costume montage in "Pilot" (part 2). Most of them were flashy and ridiculous.
* In "Man of Steel Bars", Superman, due to being accused of inadvertently harming Metropolis, is forced to go through police procedure and spend a night in jail. Absolutely nobody takes the idea totally seriously, not the judge, nor the cops nor Superman himself. The whole sequence is one long gag, with Superman's superstrength causing him to accidentally destroy every piece of equipment the police trying to get him to use - including shattering the ink table. It culminates in Superman taking his mug shot with a big goofy grin on his face, ending with a few good-natured posterity shots with a bunch of gleeful prostitutes and thugs.
* In "All Shook Up", an amnesiac Clark sneezes, powerful enough to knock out a cab he and Lois rode in.
* In "Faster Than a Speeding Vixen", Lois imagines what hers and Clark's already-busy lives would be like while raising their children. A LOT of children. While Lois is trying to interview the Queen of England and the Pope, both whom are helping with the babies and couldn't even get a word in edgewise. Clark has to leave to avert a crisis and returns holding another baby, only to leave again and it starts over again. And each baby are named after Clark and Lois' family and friends (Jonathan, Martha, Lucy, Lana, Jimmy, Samuel, etc.). And one of them is developing super powers.
-->'''Lois Lane:''' [[{{Understatement}} It's a piece of cake.]] A really big cake.
* In one episode, Jonathan and Martha Kent are visiting Clark at the Daily Planet. At the same time, a sleazy politician running for governor is also at the Planet. He greets Clark's parents and promises to help fund Smallville's education system. As he leaves, Martha shouts to him, "You might want to start with geography! We live in another state!"
* Martha Kent's explanation on how ClarkKenting could possibly work as Clark is trying on tights.
-->'''Martha Kent''': Well, one thing's for sure. Nobody's going to be looking at your face.
