Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman
Lois & Clark Web Sites
Official Web Sites:
TNT has a page detailing the history of "Lois & Clark" on the ABC.
Unofficial Web Sites (maintained by Lois & Clark fans):
Zoomway's website is quickly becoming a showpiece. Video clips, a weekly trivia game, chat rooms and LNC message boards. Quotes, locations, excuses, powers -- it's a heaven for trivia lover's. And don't miss Zoomway's famous Kiss list. There's also the 3D section for virtual reality tours of Clark's apartment, his closet (where he hides the suits), the Daily Planet and more.
L&C Fantasy Land Pages - Photos, sounds, animation, video clips. Just about everything you're looking for is here.
terihatcher.net has news as well as wonderful video and audio files, messages from The Powers That Were following the cancellation of the show, archives of chats from AOL, and some good pictures. You can also see the history of the FoLC Ad; the two advertisments paid for by Folcs. And don't miss the bloopers and clips from the gag reels shown at the cast's season wrapup parties.
Suzanne Lanoue has a Lois & Clark website full of interesting information.
Amanda Lane's Lois and Clark site is another good website worth checking out.
LaneKent's Lois and Clark page - lots of links, notices, and multimedia.
The World of Lois and Clark - Metropolis, Smallville, New Krypton. How a great metropolitan newspaper is run, the Metropolis Police and Fire Departments. A listing (with screen caps) of all named (and some unnamed) characters by episode.
Image Files
You can get image files by ftp at the HYPERION mirror site at ftp://ftp.uml.edu/TV/Lois-and-Clark. Many Folcs considered it a great compliment to this site when Lois and Clark moved into a house at 348 Hyperion Ave in the fourth season. Check out the thumb directory for thumb scale versions of these files, and try to avoid accessing the files during peak hours. The often asked for "Lois wrapped in Superman's cape" is the file named lois10.jpg.
L&C Desktop Themes for Windows 95 at Desktop Themes Heaven. The L&C themes are under the television section, but if you look under cartoons, there are also Superman themes.
Lois and Clark Desktop Themes are available at the Jenerator's page.
Episode Summaries
Sarah Wood has done transcripts of some of the shows... These aren't summaries: these read like short stories! Every line, every action are included. This site is also home to Sarah & Pam's Shrine O' Fanfic, which is a collection of solo and joint fanfics for the show Lois & Clark.
FanFic Sites

The L&C Fanfic archive web site has over 950 stories written by fans about Lois and Clark. Information on how to submit stories and how to join the fanfic mailing list is available at the Fan-fiction FAQ. All the fanfic in the archives is suitable for all audiences.

If you wonder who writes the fanfic, The Writers Showcase features interviews with many of the fanfic authors. She also has interviews with L&C writers Tim Minear (who wrote the fourth season episodes Brutal Youth, 'Twas the Night before Mxymas, Meet John Doe, and I've Got You Under my Skin), and producer and writer Brad Buckner.
The Saga Continues...
The cancellation of Lois and Clark was not an end but a beginning. Unable to accept the fact that there would be no more stories about Lois and Clark, FoLCs began to put together their own "seasons" of LNC. These stories differ from individual fanfic, in that they are a series of stories pulled together by themes, and interconnected plot lines.
The Unaired Fifth Season (TUFS). Stunned by the sudden cancellation of "Lois and Clark," the Krypton Club decided to continue the series into a fifth season. Craig Byrne and Matt Combes recruited a team of fifteen writers to put together "The Unaired Fifth Season," or "TUFS." These twenty-two stories "aired" on Sunday nights during the 1997/98 television season. Although the stories do fit into a series chronology, they can all be read as stand-alone stories. Stories are available in html format as text files at the main fanfic archives.
Another group of writers to put together the "Season Five"; also known as "S5", and are continuing into a "Season Six." Their episodes are sent out on the fanfic mailing list, and also posted to their web site.
The teen-oriented Lois and Clark Kal-El fan club have written two episodes for a fifth season.
Steamy fanfic for adults only...
If you are over 18, and are interested in the activities of Lois and Clark that would never be shown on "Family TV," those stories exist as well. We call them "nfic" or "naughty fanfiction." Because of the high number of young fans, FoLCs tend to be more protective of their adult stories than other fandoms. >
Zoomway's site has a Restricted Nfic Message Board. You'll need to register to get the password.
Debbie Stark maintains an informal mailing list for nfic. If you are over 18 (no exceptions!), and interested in steamy fanfic, email Debby (Debby@swcp.com) for more information.
There is also a password-protected web sites at Anne's Place. You'll need to register for this sites, but there is some great fanfic there.

SUBSCRIBE LOISCLA-GENERAL-L firstname lastname.
A newsgroup exists for fanfic (although, sadly, not many people post to it) at alt.tv.lois-n-clark fanfic.
