    Wonder Twins give clark a bad time. hide show

    Idol was great!! I loved Lois finding out about Clark and the dangerous situation she found herself in. For Lois' character to be believable, Clark is going to have to admit to Lois who he is. There is no way a 2009 Lois is going to believe the lies that the 1930 Lois did. Clark's relationship with Lana proved that you can not build a relationship on lies. I do believe Tom Welling is the cutest man on TV. But Justin Hartley has the looks when it comes to taking off his shirt. He looks great! Tom Welling needs to leave his shirt on until he get a six pack. Hopefully, he won't put on tights until he works on his legs.

    Great show, but it has had a really rough 8th season and it's a hard sell for season 9. hide show

    If I was rating the show simply on what it is now, I would have given it a 5, but I used to think this show was a 10.

    When the actor who played Lex decided it was time to move on, they really should have ended it with a bang; while the series was still hot.

    To start out with the positive, I've always thought this show perfectly used computer animation, as well as color enhancement and lighting. This in combination with the grade A casting makes something beautiful to watch.

    The basic psychology of the show is, watching Clark use his powers like a fool, so you can role play and imagine how you would have dealt with the situation so much more effortlessly. I would have liked to see him evolve in that aspect a little sooner than season 9.

    I'm starting to enjoy the character Tess for the first time. Her interactions with Zod are probably the only thing I look forward to in these new episodes. The people writing Zods character/dialog are doing a great job, and my skepticism about that actor pulling it off has been subsided.

    I have watched every episode of seasons 1-7 twice, yet I could barely make it through one viewing of most of the episodes since then. The whole Doomsday/Chloe/Jimmy thing was just too dark for the show and it was all leading up to a season finale that had you bracing yourself for an atomic explosion, but instead a cap gun goes off and you open your eyes and look around in confusion.

    I was so disappointed by the zombie episode I couldn't even bring myself to write a review, and I figured plenty of people would do my work for me. Yet to my surprise it was mostly 9s and 10s ... someone even claimed it was "Smallville at its best". Everyone is playing a joke on me, right? Or have those people never seen anything prior to season 8 (or that episode)? What is the fascination with half dead people staggering around wanting to eat human flesh?

    If I had never seen the movie "The Game" the episode Roulette might have been interesting... Oliver actually falling for the fake FBI routine and logging into his bank account was disappointing and pretty out of character.

    If I was going to pinpoint why the series is now merely a pale reflection, I would say its because they dont have the great interpersonal dynamics between the WHOLE Kent family and the two Luthors. The actors they chose for Lionel and Lex were simply perfect. They were the ultimate in cunning backhandedness. How do you top that? Well you add brainiac and then turn Lex into Zod. How do you top that? You can't... and there is our problem.

    best tv show, let's just hope he will fly soon enough. hide show

    Smallville caught my eye, not when it first appeared but only a few years agon when i first saw some more members of Justice League. From then i've been watching all episodes and it has deffiently become my favorite tv show. The embodiment of good, a man among men, and a metahuman, Superman fills in the shoes of Tom Welling, who does the most amazing job with his character. The thing that impressed mw the most is the large space of interpretation, since it's new and no one was expecting it, you can do with this show anything and everything. Every character is strongly connected to each other, they all are the people today due to their turbulent lives and helping hands. I've been seeing on forums lately KILL LANA, LANA has to DIE. Why? She plays probably alongisde with Lex the most important part in this show. Clark is the man he is due to them, and his father(not the biological one). If not for Lana's love or Lex's envy and hate who knows how Clark might've ended up. Lana is gone, i doubt she'll have any serious parts in this show, maybe some appearences here and there, but i have the feeling that Season 9 is only focused on Clark and Lois (so i hope) and probably get his FLYING skills already. I've heard that patience is everything, for 9 seasons we've been patient, now give him a cool suit and teach him to fly. Best show ever in my book, keep it up, Good Luck, Cheers!

    Clark is fulfilling his destiny and lois comes back from the future hide show

    This episode of Smallville is terrific. It really shows characterism in the actors on how Clark is fulfilling his destiny when Lois comes back and cause Clark has feelings for her he is distracted in his training with Jor-El, so Jor-El tells Clark to go back and sort it out with her.Clark doesn't end up sorting it out with her in this episode but Chloe still grieving over Jimmy's death really wants Clark to go back and save Jimmy but Clark doesn't want to change fate. Also a ninja comes from the future to kill Clark but doesn't succeed cause she dies in the fight between her and Clark without their powers
