I've been watching Superman and Lois and I have to say that Tyler Hoechlin has become my favorite Kent and Superman. I grew up in the 70s and figured no one would ever be able to touch Reeve but Hoechlin just nails the character. That innate goodness, decency and hope has been missing for so long.

Superman: Reeve and Corenswet Tie, but I enjoyed each Superman in his own right.
Clark Kent: Welling
Lex Luther: Rosenbaum
Lois: Bronsahan
Lana:Kristen Kruek
Martha: O'Toole
Jonathan: John Schnieder
Jimmy: Gisondo
Best Scene is the plane Crash in Superman Returns

For a WB/CW "teen" show, Smallville produced:

The best Lex
The best Lois (but Bitsie Tulloch is a damned strong 2nd)
The best Ma and Pa Kent
The best Clark
The most developed Lana

And also created two characters that were so good they became canon:
Chloe Sullivan
Lionel Luther

Smallville is my Favorite show of all-time.
