The series consciously balances themes often associated with both the left (critique of corporate greed, government overreach, mental health awareness) and the right (traditional family values, individual responsibility, community focus), resulting in a neutral rating. Its primary focus is on universal human and superheroic struggles rather than explicit political ideology.
The series maintains traditional casting for its central characters, Superman and Lois Lane, and their children. While the broader ensemble cast includes diverse actors, there are no explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white main roles. The narrative focuses on character-driven drama and superheroics, portraying traditional identities in a neutral or positive light without explicit DEI critiques.
Superman & Lois offers a positive portrayal of LGBTQ+ themes through Jonathan Kent's romantic relationship with Matteo. The show depicts their same-sex relationship with dignity and normalcy, treating it as a natural part of Jonathan's character development. The narrative avoids harmful stereotypes, focusing on the emotional complexities of a teenage romance, and is met with acceptance by other characters, affirming queer identity.
The show features female characters who engage in combat, but their victories against male opponents are primarily achieved through the use of superpowers or advanced technology. There are no instances where a female character defeats one or more male opponents in close-quarters physical combat using skill, strength, or martial arts without relying on these external advantages.
The series primarily features established Superman characters who maintain their canonical genders. While some new characters adopt monikers from existing comic characters, these are original creations for the show, not gender-swapped adaptations of previously established individuals.
The show primarily features characters whose on-screen portrayals align with their established racial identities from source material or previous adaptations. Original characters created for the series do not constitute race swaps.
