Smallville
Episode: “Infamous”
(Season 8, episode 15)
Best in-joke: Not an in-joke exactly, but the scene where Clark tells Lois about his powers is achingly similar to the interview between the pair in Superman: The Movie . Welling even has a cow lick in his hair in true Christopher Reeve fashion.
Best line:
Clark: “ My father sent me here with a dying wish that I use my abilities to protect mankind. It’s what I’ve always done. It’s what I’m going to continue to do.”
Verdict: It’s not as much of a pure mockumentary as some of the other items on this list, but there’s enough here to make it fun – even if Lois learning and then forgetting Clark’s Super-side (again) is teeth gnashingly irritating. Again.
