Could Lois BE anymore Annoying?

[SteveS]

lois, lois, lois, thank you, thank you, thank you. Just when I was thinking that TPTB were going to try to make you more palatable to me, there you go at Chloe's engagement party and show your intrinsic lack of class. You really flashed your ace there publicly, which is probably result of more than 90% of what comes out of your mouth is an insult, a dig, or something condescending. I do salute you,lois, in your recognizing your own basic obnoxiousness,something that I was probably one of the first on these boards to point out. Not merely 'annoying', you ability to alienate people by your words and actions is special, no one that I have known as a Lois has earned as much disrespect as you.

Now, the big, tough, independent woman tells us that she luvs ClarkMan. (oh yeah, his super memory will note the sensor was still on her finger and that lois had neither the presence of mind or ability to remove the thing, even the villain was smarter than that in his design) Oh goody, oh boy, inferior woman loves the super man, who wouldn't?

And the humor tonight, it was so hilarious that I almost laughed. What did she say, pumpkin, muffin or what? (actually, one word 're-hymenated' on Supernatural was funnier than all the erstwhile wit on Smallville.

So, thanks lois, for bringing back the girl that I have found so objectionable for so long. Take away lois' female sexual parts (easily replaceable in the open meat-market), lois is nothing, has nothing, and is certainly far below acceptable for someone like ClarkMan. Not really intelligent, but stupid repeatedly, not classy, but crass repeatedly, lois is still a loser pretending to be strong and independent. Her picture is in dictionary for 'faux pas', obnoxious and several other negatives. ClarkMan is far too good for anything that she has to offer, used and inferior that it is.

Can she be more annoying? Maybe so, but keeping her at this level is actually sufficient to lose friends and influence people as she is. Thanks, lolo. (I got you on tape this time, to replay and relive as needed)

^^I think you posted this im the wrong place dude.

[SteveS]

No, dudette, I put it right in the thread about 'can lois be more annoying?', my comments on tonight's episode are generally in that section. This one fit better here.

[Raistlin]

He loves the way Lois bosses him around.

We call that a lot of things where I'm from and none of them are pretty. :lol:

Isnt it rather obvious to you that lois is being overtly loud because she cant quite handle herself around clark right now with her new feelings?..she obviously has a huge crush on him and is acting very loud and bossy to cover it up, and when she gets jealous it bursts out because she's been bottling it up and yes i think her bad tendancies are coming across more intense than usual because of this..

she obviously wants to have sex with clark as was made rather obvious at the start of the episode at the DP..which hints:..yes..very sexually frustrated. lol which doesnt help either when it comes to her emotions about clark.

I get what you're saying, but what is she...12?

If we are talking strong, independent woman, then Tess fits the bill and she doesn't bring the annoyance factor. She's straight to the point, no holds back. She is like Lois without the mega-dose of caffeine annoyance.

Good point. Also, Tess doesn't use her sexuality to get her way. I hate when women do that, and Lois is a good one for that.

[Loulou26]

I love Lois just the way she is. She doesn't need to change for anyone, to please anyone and Clark loves her as she is. That is why they are meant to be together. Lois Lane is awesome!!!!

[Raistlin]

Yup! And I say bring on the wild cherry! Wouldn't change one thing about Lois. Give me annoying, brash Lois any day of the week.

:lol::lol::lol: That's more Lois hyperbole. She wishes she was wild cherry. That would have been Maxima. The best I would give Lois is Rocky Road.

I would call Lois wild cherry. She's fun, and fresh, and brought a whole new flavor to the show, in a good way. And this is coming from a diehard Chlarker, but I can definitely appreciate the awesomeness she brought to the show, especially in the last three seasons.

[Loulou26]

Lois is exactly the kind of woman I wanted to be. Bold, takes no crap from anyone, stands on her own two feet yet can still be vulnerable underneath all that. I love her as she is. I wouldn't change a thing about her.

YES. True that, Laura. She is an extremely three-dimensional, well-created character who evolved and deepened as the show progressed, and became one of my favorite female leads in the show -- not quite as much as my favorite tiny blonde, but still, I definitely appreciate Lois for the spectacular character that she is.

[Raistlin]

Lois is too in your face for me and I don't like that type of personality; I never have, especially when the person bearing those traits has no cause to behave like that (translation: she ain't all that). I did not find SV's Lois to be well created or three-dimensional, especially in seasons 4-8. I thought she was very stereotypical...motherless girl-child, raised by a military father and probably felt the need to over-compensate for her sex a lot as a child; hence, the brash, loud, tactless, know-it-all, arrogant woman. I agree with the OP that she needs to be toned down a lot for me to like the character. BTW, I have never liked Lois Lane in any of her incarnations, so it's not an EDLois thing. It's strictly a Lois thing.

[SGuthrie27]

Honestly, I thought Lois was a little too "in your face" in early seasons myself, but by the time Season 8 rolled around, I felt as though she was given a lot more different character nuances and was portrayed as having many sides. She could be shown as vulnerable and softer, as evidenced by many of her moments in "Bride." She could be seen as highly motivated and sometimes overly determined in pursuing a goal, as was the case in "Stiletto." She could be snarky and witty and full of great banter in episodes like "Committed." And she could also be shown as incredibly sweet, gracious, kind, considerate, loyal, and trustworthy. Just listening to her speech to the Blur over the phone shows how much she's willing to go to bat for the people she believes in. Lois learned from all her experiences in Smallville, her interactions with Clark and the Kent family, and everything she went through, and it made her into a much more well-rounded, versatile, truly beautiful character, in Season 8, in my humble opinion.

[Loulou26]

The thing is, Lois is a lot like people. REAL. Most people in every day life have annoying traits. In fact I'm sure everyone does. But that doesn't make them any less sensitive or unable to feel. People like them regardless of these flaws and sometimes because of them. Lois is...loving, loyal, kind, sweet, and FIERCELY protective of the people she loves. She may be a little brash at times, being a military brat, and yes I do believe that it comes from losing a parent, that kind of thing changes a person, I know that myself. I'll be the first to admit that I thought she was a little too outspoken in the beginning, but she has grown and evolved into a character that I love very much. Yes she speaks her mind, but her heart is in the right place. She relies on herself, that isn't a bad thing, she has confidence in herself, that isn't a bad thing. But when the chips are down, she is there when people need her. She took on the role of being Clark's other half with no qualms about his secret, no pressuring him into telling her because she simply had to know. She supported him and waited for him to come to her. If that's not change I don't know what is.

You know what? Lois rocks. Get over it.

Season 9 is my least watched DVD set. I've only seen it once and don't remember much about it. I'm waiting for Season 10 to come out on DVD. I'd hate to continue disliking Lois as much as I do, seeing as those 2 seasons are Lois heavy, so I'm hoping I see all the sides to Lois you described. ;)

Are you talking to me? Because I'm pretty sure all opinions are valid and getting over it is not an option. :p

[hughie87]

All opinions are valid. And that is mine. Whether you choose to get over it or not is your decision. But instead of nicely bashing Lois, I think you need to give her a chance.

When I re-watch S9 and finally get to see S10, I'll give her a chance--provided her more objectionable traits have been toned down.

[Eleidich]

Lois rock. The best female SV character at all.

[Clark/Lois-fan]

SVLois is exactly why I love the character. Bossy, stuck-up, rude, funny, loving, friendly, bold, annoying etc. Wouldn't have her any other way :)

[BkWurm1]

I just hated season 9 in general but her character mellowed A LOT in season 10.

Pretty much this, And season 9 is my absolute favourite tied to season 10.
