Twice The Lois

Smallville just gets better and better.  They have just announced that Teri Hatcher has signed on to play Lois Lane's mother!

Teri got her big break as the character of Lois on the 1990's hit Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman so it is an inspired piece of casting.  Good on her for doing it.

Yes, I know, Smallville fans: Lois' mom, Ella is dead. But I can report that the episode will center around Lois discovering old videotapes of her mother and... well, from there, you'll need to tune in and find out what happens.
