Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (often called Lois & Clark or The New Adventures of Superman) is a live-action American television series based on the Superman comic books. Lois & Clark aired on ABC from September 12, 1993 to June 14, 1997, and starred Dean Cain as Superman/Clark Kent and Teri Hatcher as Lois Lane.

Developed by Deborah Joy LeVine (based upon characters created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster), the series loosely follows the comic philosophy of writer John Byrne with Clark Kent as the true personality, and Superman as a secondary disguise. As the show’s title suggests, it focuses as much on the relationship between Clark Kent and Lois Lane as on the adventures of Clark’s alter-ego.

Clark learns about his alien origins, and about a Federal agent named Jason Trask who wants to kill Superman. The agent, part of a secret branch of the government called Bureau 39, interrogates Lois and Clark to learn about Superman.
