    Smallville was fine back in the day, but it’s long outgrown it’s original mission (Superman before he was Superman). Now that Tom Welling looks more like a 40-year old than a teenager, they need to get on with it.

    Bet you hated the ever-lovin’ jeebus out of the Superman Red/Superman Blue angle from the ’90s.

    Be patient. Let’s see what it actually looks like.

    We do not speak of such horrors.

    Smallville is an abomination: it took an extremely iconic character, stripped him of everything that made him iconic, then tried to piece it together like a child trying to fix a broken vase.

    Like Lucy with Charlie Brown’s football, the producers would do their best on the season finale to make you feel like next season was going to be the season where you get the goods. Then next season rolls around and it’s the same drawn out crap with barely developing characters and winks and nods that ranged from the subtly impressive (in the early books, Kryptonite did mutate humans) to the mind-numbingly stupid (see: Doomsday).

    The only thing that made Smallville remotely watchable was comparing the show to the recaps from Television Without Pity (before they sold out).

    It accomplished its mission (give ppl a small-screen Supes while the movie version gets its act together) so now it’s time to put it to rest so we can get a fresher interpretation of the character.
