She is absolutely so pretty! I’m so envious of her. I love that she is from Canada! (whoo!) We def. need more Canadians out there. Anyways I liked her a lot on Smallville. (I have yet to see her in her new movies- Where she’s a kick ass fighter) However in Smallville it was sad how they ended it for Season 8. I much rather wish we could have stuck with the Season 7 ending. This one was just depressing. (Though her fighting back part where she cut her hair and stuff was pretty cool) Regardless I think she’s an amazing person. I hope we get to see more of her. OH MAN! They should have a trailer for her movie in the background in season 9. It would be AMAZING!

I really like her acting ...Continue »
I must say after watching Teri Hatcher in "lois and clark" I tought she was the best Lois Lane I've seen, and then Erica came into smallville, and she gave the character so much freshness and fun that made me so impossible no to love her.

She definitely brings a lot to the show, she made every line of her character totaly worth it, always look good, and knows how to put up a fight and still be charming.

A very good actress, keeping like this no doubt she will succed in other projects as well. We have a star among us.

She is just perfect as the successful reporter Lois Lane! ...Continue »
Erica Durance really did a great job when she interprets Lois Lane. She did something different about this character and created the perfect Lois Lane. It's the best Lois Lane ever. The sarcasm, the lines, everything that make her fans like her very much. In my opinion, Erica is a great actress. Smallville is supposed to be a drama/action series but when I see her scenes, I really have fun. I laugh with her lines and the way she talks to Clark, unaired that they will become the most famous couple in the history of television. Smallville becomes a comedy show to me. Great actors and actress like her make Smallville be a Fantastic Show. That's why I will keep watching it. I want to see the development of the story and, also, of the actors. Erica Durance is really growing as an actress and I'm sure she will make her mark in Smallville. When the show is over (I hope not anytime soon), we will really miss her.

Best Lois Lane yet and the hottest! ...Continue »
Erica Durance is very talented and also plays Lois Lane perfectly on Smallville. Definitely one of the hottest girls on television and she's also smart and funny as well so what's not to like? It's a shame she's limited to 13 episodes out of 22 episodes for every season of Smallville because I find any episode that involves Erica Durance is a lot more entertaining, exciting, and funny. Hope to see her get some good roles for movies in the future and with her talent and looks I'm sure she'll go far. I also hope to see her appear in magazines like Maxim and FHM again because seriously she is so DAM HOT!
