Well, each of my Parts of my story isn't supposed to be equal to an episode. More like a segment between advertisement breaks.

Nah, we don't need him, it isn't "Lois, and Clark, and Jimmy". Although are there are Jimmy free episodes in L&C?
Nope. There may have been one M&J free episode, one Perry-free episode, clearly no Cat at the end of S1, and several Lex-free episodes in S1. I could have used some Lex-Free episodes in S3 though.

Wrong Clark:Superman swoops in, rescues Lois, and leaves. He does not spend long periods of time with her. So OK, maybe he did have to pretend, but not day after day after day.
CANON SUPERMAN: I came in and danced with her. We met daily to discuss my rescues. It was almost like dating. Could explain why she fell for SM over CK, though.
Quote
Cautious! Caustious!! He goes back in time to destroy Clark's marriage, that is more than cautious.
WELLS: Better a busted marriage than a dead wife.

Oh, I thought he just flew really, really, really fast. Although I never noticed that. See, I knew that there were continuity problems with Super Mann.
Well, it wouldn't make sense that Nightfall was further away than the sun, would it?

EW: Oh, I thought that was *this* Lois: <Stripper Lois> ER: No, Lois only dressed up as a stripper. Linda dressed up as a prostitute who fronted as a stripper.
LOIS: "Dressed up" as a prostitute? If she does the act and gets paid for it, and goes back for more, it's not dress up.
Quote
CLARK: I can sue her for that? ER: Only if he hopes to never get nookie.
CLARK: So, that would be bad, right? LOIS: :rolleyes:
Quote
EW: Yes, but if he won't admit his secret identity to Lois, why would he during an undercover job interview? ER: Since when does he make smart choices?
You mean? <<points to previous answer>>
Quote
EW: I'm sure the others in the press core would hold it against Linda for being so petty; they're a pretty rambunctious group. OTHER REPORTERS LOIS SNUBBED: I can corroborate how Mad Dog Lane pulled a loaded machine gun Ms. King and screaming something about killing her.
LOIS: Ooops?
Quote
Well, he does love *you*. So, uh... perfectly sane? LOIS: But at least he won’t sneak out with my story while I’m asleep. Right? Right?
CLARK: We're partners! Share and share alike, right? LOIS: CLARK: So, let Lois wake up first. Gotcha!

To be fair, Cat never offered.

Since Superman collapsed in her apartment and she had him moved into her bedroom, where she also keeps her jewelry box and the next morning, Lois is in mourning.
Well, if she did that she might be suffering from morning sickness as well.

I thought that was implied? LEX: Lois is going to do me hard?
Quote
But then Lois and Clark couldn't learn together.
LOIS: Considering he appears to have no idea on what to do in a woman’s bedroom, maybe a tutor really is necessary.
Quote
So, that would be a bad thing?
Lois not figuring it out and thinking it’s just a metal, yeah…
Quote
LOIS: Is it bad that I'd rather have Lex torture and/or kill a clone, rather than me?
Depends on your POV. Clark for instance, would disagree and think her a very bad person. Someone he wouldn’t want to touch. But he would go and try and save the clones. Only, what he’d do with a battery of Lois-like looking former sex-slaves, I have no idea…

Same goes for the stripping, doesn’t it? LINDA: Plus, student loans.

Join us on the #loisclark Discord server! We talk about fanfic, our favorite show, life, and more! (It’s almost like the IRC days of old again!)
Season 3 had quite a few Martha and Jonathan free episodes. "The Dad Who Came In From the Cold" comes to mind the fastest. It in some ways represents Clark moving out of his parents shadow. He is stressing a lot about being a parent, but he never turns to his own parents to ask questions about it. I don't think we get M&J show up in "Never on a Sunday" either.
I don't think they ever actually went all the way between commercial breaks without showing Lois and Clark. Of course in Season 1 they had a bunch of scenes that were not really connected with the show, like the start of "Pheremone My Lovely" with Clark using his eyes to cook his eggs/Superman rushing in to save the recycling from going in the trash.
Although, maybe my view is a bit skewed. When I watch some episodes I skip through the Lois and Clark free parts. That is the parts with neither Lois nor Clark.
Come to think of it I don't think M&J show up in "Ghosts", and I am not remembering anyone else showing up in "I Got You Under My Skin" but Lois and Clark, but I may need to think harder.
I am not sure we actually see Perry in the first episode with Tempus, despite all the talk about it being his birthday.
Do M&J show up at all in the Lex Jr. arc?
Also, I am pretty sure M&J don't show up in "Smart Kids". At least they are not listed in the script.
CANON SUPERMAN: I came in and danced with her. We met daily to discuss my rescues. It was almost like dating. - Could explain why she fell for SM over CK, though.
Except in canon, even after SM comes and dances with Lois, she choses Clark over SM. Also, that is essentially what happens in "Fall of the House of Luthor".
Actually, there is at least one Jimmy-free episode. "I've Got You Under My Skin", in large part because it is set entirely in one day and that happens to be Lois and Clark's day off, does not have Perry or Jimmy. Nor does it have M&J.
The honeymoon episode we get M&J (well, technically only historical equivalents), and Perry and Jimmy. "I've Got You Under My Skin" we get none of them.

We're they trying to show that Clark was finally a grown up and didn't need his folks anymore?

I think Clark consults them during Lex Jr., but Smart Kids could have done with a lot less kids.

That is one possible reading. However, I think the bigger reason is that once Lois knows CK=SM, she can advise him on issues that relate to this, so structurally he does not need M&J as much.

But isn't dancing with Lois mainly a reference to "Church of Metropolis"'s ending. So in S2 we have SM again romancing Lois. Early in "Whine, Whine, Whine" we have Dr. Friskin confronting Lois on whether she has given up on her Superman romance fantasy or not. Which is sort of odd since Dr. Friskin knows how much Superman really, really wants Lois.
So "Whine, Whine, Whine" has Lois totally reject SM in favor of CK. Which I always figure makes his claim of proposing before he tells her because he wants to know she will love him for him pretty weak.

Well, she can't well ADMIT that to another patient, now can she? Anyway, if her patients live happily ever after, she needs to get new patients. If they don't, she doesn't. Win-Win for her to discourage them to get together. <<not that I'd ever think Dr. F would do that.>>
