Like the ensemble shows Evil and Lockwood & Co., My Adventures with Superman shows that having two protagonists with romantic chemistry and a weird third wheel can be a winning formula. Jimmy, by comparison, is a bit one-note in the early episodes, where his dominant characteristic is believing in conspiracies about aliens and Atlantis (which of course are all true in the world of DC Comics), but his odd version of genre savvy and general sweetness grew on me over time.
