SFTV Listing of Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Airdates compiled by Lee Whiteside (leew@goodnet.com) http://www.goodnet.com/~leew The first season saw L&C go head to head with the much hyped seaQuest DSV and both shows getting trounced by Murder She Wrote. The second season saw L&C pull ahead of seaQuest but still much behind Murder She Wrote, although gaining ground near the end of the season. The third season saw L&C become a ratings winner as CBS and NBC tried adult sitcoms in that time slot but when CBS moved Murder She Wrote back to Sundays for its final episodes, the ratings dropped. The fourth season saw L&C beaten by "3rd Rock From the Sun" (NBC) and "Touched By An Angel" (CBS). It was briefly moved an hour earlier with no ratings improvement and then moved to the first hour of prime time on Saturdays. The fifth season had been committed to by ABC in an agreement with Warner Bros. letting the ABC owned stations keep the Rosie O'Donnell talk show in exchange for committing to the fifth season of L&C. With the declining ratings, ABC negotiated out of the contract for a cash settlement ($20 million?) and a 13 episode committment for the Warner series "Hungry For Survival", which was renamed "Prey" when it finally aired in the spring and summer of 1998. Repeats of the shows four seasons will start airing on TNT in fall of 1997.
