The dvd 📀 for Season Seven of Smallville has an extra feature with a roundtable of Jimmy Olsens.

2 former and 2 'current' Jimmy Olsens. It was very cool to see how invested Jack Larson was in the role still. Even fifty some years after playing Jimmy Olsen.

Back when that was recorded 📼 they could have had a nice Lois Lane roundtable. 3 of the original Lois Lanes have since passed away in the past decade.
