My Take
For me Erica Durance will always be Lois Lane. Across Smallville she gave the character a sharp, spirited edge that anchored the show, and playing opposite a Superman mythology is harder than it looks. She brought intelligence and warmth in equal measure. Her later turn as a doctor on Saving Hope showed range and staying power on television. What I respect is that she built a steady career through the grind of episodic TV rather than chasing blockbuster glamour. That kind of dependable, character-first craftsmanship is exactly the sort of actor I find easy to keep championing.
