I looked but only saw threads for just Tess.

So, yeah, in Odyssey there was some good chemistry between them, or what my mother aptly called Enemy Chemistry.

They play off eachother really well I think, and I'd even say there some subtext chemistry going on there but I know not everyone is into that so I won't go there. :p

But what does everyone else think?

We were supposed to get a Lex vs Lois last season, but I actually think I'm liking the Tess vs Lois idea, because I like how they play against eachother. It seems like a cat and mouse game and the fact that they are both alpha females works really well too I think.

It even feels playful. With lines like 'I haven't fired you yet?' 'Nope, guess you're too busy printing my articles.'

I think . . . I might be starting to turning into a Tess/Lois fan. What would that be called? Teslo? Sounds like a russian experiment (Tesla)

As long as it doesn't become an all out mud wrestling match between them, I am enjoying their catty banter.

Unfortunately for you, they are two types that just might do that. They both seem to have no problems getting down and dirty.

LOL no, I don't think we'll be seeing them getting half naked and wrestling in pudding anytime soon.

I do like the banter, and it feels witty too. Catty a bit, but you know, I think Lois bickering with Dinah back in Siren was MUCH more catty. Even her bickering with Lex was more catty.

With Tess it still is, but I feel like there is this underlying respect for one another under it which what makes the banter feel different from just throwing jabs at eachother.

Like Tess saying that she hadn't fired Lois yet, it didn't come across as serious at all, much more teasing and Lois saying that it was because Tess was too busy printing her articles and then Tess not disagreeing with that? I don't know. Even though there is some battling of estrogen going on there, it seems a lot more playful.

I like it so far.

Erica and Cassidy seem to have really good chemistry together in their scenes as well, which is nice to have instead of just line readings. They are each giving a flavor to dialogue that I'm really enjoying.

Oh the Lois/Tess scene was wonderful. It reminded me of the Lois/Perry antagonism a bit... I mean they are fighting for the same team but there was banter. Lois critiquing him on his editing, Perry critiquing her on her writing style/recklessness. So there was that angle. Unlike Lex, Tess really sinks her teeth into the DP and getting out a juicy story. So that gave a fun edge to the banter. They went toe to toe... neither backing down but both unfazed by the other. WONDERFUL. I want more. They have great chemistry.

I think they do also. In both Odyssey and Toxic. I look forward to more.

Tess knows Lois isn't going to take her sh*t . That's what makes it funny to watch. Erica and Cassidy they really do feed off of eachother good to see.

I agree - I like their chemistry, too. And I also enjoyed the, "I haven't fired you, yet?" lines.

What I like about this relationship is that there is a real reason for them to be wary of each other & Lois and Tess are both the type to call a spade a spade. They have no reason to be nice to each other and so they aren't. "SV" is full of characters who are supposed to hate each other, but are so nice to each other that it's bizarre. (Chloe and Lionel, for example.)

Very interesting chemistry. I like Lo-Tess (Lotus) better than Tes-lo (Tesla) though. It makes me think Lotus Blossoms aka pretty, addicting things.<G> Which then leads me back to the pudding wrestling over a naked Clark tied to a bed. <G>...drools.<G>

I love the Lo-Tess, I think it brings a playful side out of Tess and it showcases Lois' skills more than ever. It's clear Tess is very impressed by the interpret reporter; Lois Lane.

Definitely great chemistry between these two.

Did someone mention wrestling? Oil? Pudding? Mud? Take your pick, even though I think I would prefer to watch these two oil wrestle. *Happy thoughts racing through my mind*

Just saw this thread but I will put the same in it that I did in another. lois is grossly over-matched by Tess and lois is like an old teenager trying to compete with a confident and mature woman.

Chemistry? Don't think so, lois only has a kind of repetivitely stupid bravado and Tess has the brains and class to outwit lois repeatedly. However, Tess will use lois as long as she wants and until she leaves the show or the series ends.

:lol::lol:you are the one who has terrible taste.
Lois is the only one with class here, she knows Tess is not a good person and she hides something, maybe Tess convince Clark because he`s really naive, but even Olliver didn`t like her when he saw her the last time. Tess is a villian and Lois knows that.:D, because Lois has the brain and the intelligence to rialize that.:D

You are starting to sound a bit bitter. Maybe some fiber?

Don't want baby cereal. But since Lois is a BABE, I'll take her.

That first scene between Tess and Lois was hot! And I think they have great chemistry. I could watch them interact all day. Or night.
