Question

Fans discuss whether Jerry's Lois Lane reference to an NYU reporter in "The Outing" was a callback to the Teri Hatcher episode, debating timeline and whether "Lois & Clark" was airing at that time.

My girlfriend thinks that Jerry was making a reference to the episode with Teri Hatcher when he told the NYU reporter in last night's repeat that she reminded him of Lois Lane. Does anybody know if last night's repeat and the repeat starrring Hatcher were from the same season, and if "Lois & Clark" was even on at that point?

I do know for a fact that Lois and Clark was definitely on at that point that episode is no more than 2 yrs. old -Noam

Last night's repeat, "The Outing", was first shown on Feb. 4, 1993.

Lois & Clark did not start airing until Sept. 12, 1993.

Finally, the episode starring Teri Hatcher, "The Implant", was first shown on Feb. 25, 1993.

Seinfeld and Lois & Clark should definitely do a crossover like they did with Murphy Brown....

In several episodes Jerry has made references to superman, etc. It's one of his character's many quirks (fantasys ?) As was mentioned by Ryan, he got all excited when he was dating a "Lois" (more fanatasy role playing for his character) In this episode, he's dealing with a reporter, so his character role plays along and refers to her as "Lois Lane"

Part of the "charm" of the seinfeld characters is their quirky little flaws that always come back to haunt them.

First Jerry wants to see Sidra naked. Then he doesn't. Then he does. You see, first he thinks they're real. Then he doesn't. Then he does. At first Sidra likes Jerry. Then she doesn't. Then she does. Then she doesn't. In other words, it's your basic Seinfeld storyline. :-)

As for episode titles, they are *not* to be found in TV Guide, though it would be great if they were. I find the titles in my local newspaper's Sunday television supplement, though they don't always print the titles. Sometimes, though not often, the newspaper prints the titles in their daily television section. Those viewers with satelite systems can get the titles from the network feed to their affiliates.
