- RxDaniel, on 05/02/2008, -0/+110After 7 years he finally gets to grow some hair. Congratulations to him on that.
- upick, on 05/02/2008, -0/+102won't be the same without him... he makes a good lex luthor
- TheInfamousOne, on 05/02/2008, -1/+40Rosenbaum played an awesome LL. Sad to see him leave the show, which isn't great, but a good watch for superman fans.
- malechite, on 05/02/2008, -0/+31Ive been watchign since season one... if you dont start at season 1 you'll have no idea whats going on if you just watch random episodes here and there... but the show was Excellent up to season 5, then it started to have ups and downs... i still watch it every week though
- inactive, on 05/02/2008, -2/+32He looks like a nice guy, all the best for him.
- AresDiggs, on 05/02/2008, -1/+29You do realize that Lana Lang is a character not a person... right?
- malechite, on 05/02/2008, -0/+25I really wanted them to end the show before stuff like this happens... go out with a bang... make clark fly, decide to become superman, and put on the costume to end the show.
I just hope season 8 doesn't completely ruin everything. - namelessXsilent, on 05/02/2008, -0/+24Sucks that he is leaving when they finally turned him into a really evil character, compared to the last seasons
- scottie369, on 05/02/2008, -1/+23Father, you have no idea what I am capable of
- hella81, on 05/02/2008, -1/+20"I am the villian of this story." -Probably my favorite line from Smallville.
- RevJonathan, on 05/02/2008, -1/+18I remember one episode where he splits into a good and evil lex. That evil Lex performance was one of the best I've ever seen in any media. He's a great actor and while I doubt Smallville will be the same, he's clearly too high caliber for a CW show.
- g30ph, on 05/02/2008, -1/+17The only interesting character is leaving the show. The other characters have no real depth, what you see is what you get.
The story has gone to ***** anyway, with Clark being told left and right that Lex is going to get this thing that will let him control Clark, and Clark can only think of Lana. I'm so sick of Lana Lang. I hope Lex teaches Clark a valuable lesson before he leaves, like get your ***** priorities straight! - Miamisun, on 05/02/2008, -1/+16I think it is about time to turn clark into a full fledged superman already. Clark vs Doomsday for season 8 just will not work.
- unrealfan, on 05/02/2008, -1/+15i never really got into the show....anybody recommend watching this? i like the premise but was just never sure of how it got executed
- Barclay1188, on 05/02/2008, -0/+14Well... that's "sucktacular"....
- Quick2822, on 05/02/2008, -3/+15I wish I still liked Smallville. I really did try. I love Superman but Smallville has been exactly the same for 7 years. They keep avoiding the Justice League, and I'm tired of the weekly meteorite freak.
- Vzylexy, on 05/02/2008, -0/+12Michael Rosenbaum portrayed one of the best versions of Lex Luthor on screen, the only one that comes close is John Shea on Lois & Clark.
- RevJonathan, on 05/02/2008, -0/+11You have to really struggle through some awful teen-soap moments, but in between those awkward facepalms you'll see some great TV. I recommend it.
- grapfx, on 05/02/2008, -0/+11He's a good villain too. Has anyone else seen Kickin' It Old School, he was an evil Ryan Seacrest.
- MiamiRox, on 05/02/2008, -4/+15If you read the comics, then it won't really make sense. In fact even I didn't read the comics and there were still some things that had me like "what???".
- zephyr42, on 05/02/2008, -1/+11He is clearly the best actor on the show. I never cared for it too much after season 2 or 3.... got too drama-ish.
- SpencerMc, on 05/02/2008, -3/+13I watched the first 5 seasons or so 'cause my roommate had them on DVD. I know it's likely an unpopular opinion, but I found it to be kinda meh. Mediocre acting, a lot of superfluous teenage drama thrown in, and a lot of really forced references that just made me wince. i.e: the cameo appearances from Teenage Aquaman and Teenage Flash who just happened to have business which took them into Smallville (not sure about Green Arrow, I heard he was in season 6 but never watched it); or stuff like:
Teenage Aquaman: Maybe we should form some sort of Junior Lifeguard Association.
Clark Kent: I don't think the world is ready for the JLA.
Not to mention the fact that the first season and a half was the same story over and over again every episode. Someone develops some sort of trait or ability (for good or ill) as a result of being exposed to the kryptonite from the meteor shower, and Clark has to deal with them.
All that said, Lex Luthor was without a doubt the most well developed character on the show, and the actor that played him was damn good. It doesn't really surprise me that he's shoving off for greener pastures.
Just my take on it. I'm prepared to be buried and will take it with grace. - foofightrs777, on 05/02/2008, -1/+11Wait, no Kristen Kreuk either? She was pretty much the reason I watched that show when it first came out when back I was in HS.
- fadetoone, on 05/02/2008, -0/+10I wasn't into it initially, but once I started watching I really enjoyed it. One of my good friend's was against watching it as well, until I forced him to watch my DVDs, and then he watched the first 4 seasons in about 2 weeks.
On the surface, it's a CW teen drama... but it's about SUPERMAN. I'd say the annoying aspect is the on again, off again relationship with Lana, but at least she's good looking.
Oh, and I might add, last night's new episode was one of my favorites out of the entire series. - aresef, on 05/02/2008, -5/+13He can grow back his hair now.
- reqage, on 05/02/2008, -0/+8I sat next to him in a pizza/pub bar down next to WKU's campus. When word got out he was there, a ton of hot ass girls showed up wearing the skimpiest clothes that they could squeeze into. It was awesome. He'd be a good wingman for the bar scene.
- JakeyG14, on 05/02/2008, -1/+9Lana, Chloé, Lois, random hotties, seriously is there any reason not to watch the show (aside from its slight crappiness)?
- hamobu, on 05/02/2008, -0/+8How many shows featuring good looking people in high school did WB create?
- ericthegreat, on 05/02/2008, -0/+8I completely agree. This show is getting too long in the tooth and they need to plan an endgame. It is far too soon in Superman mythos to add Doomsday.
- funkytaco, on 05/02/2008, -0/+7are you kidding? season 1 was horrid. it was just "meteor freaks". you can only take so much of the same idea. i mean come on, this is superman's story.
my regret is that superman still doesn't fly now that lex will be leaving. - bjs3171, on 05/02/2008, -4/+11WHOA. Was that shark back there?? Hell yes. We jumped right over that *****.
- Nick519, on 05/02/2008, -2/+9he was one of the main reasons that show was worthwhile back when it started. i just wish they would have done the superman reboot with the original cast from the show, instead of doing it with all new people. the movie was decent enough for a popcorn flick, but it would have been kick ass to see a big production with that cast.
- Synn, on 05/02/2008, -0/+7Well not everyone has a stick up their ass like you apparently do.
- karaokekidd, on 05/02/2008, -0/+7Wait until he finds out how bad his hairline has gotten!
- priegog, on 05/02/2008, -0/+7The hotness made it bearable.
- irvin666, on 05/02/2008, -0/+6Lex Luthor is the ONLY reason I watch smallville. Michael plays a really good Lex.
- coyote1284, on 05/02/2008, -2/+8I thought Spacey was a good Lex, too bad the movie sucked.
- RealmDown, on 05/02/2008, -0/+6That's better than asexual ones.
- H8erAid, on 05/02/2008, -3/+9I like the show, and I never really was a Superman fan, so I would say check it out for yourself. Wal Mart and Best Buy have all the seasons on sale for $19.99 each. Buy season 1 and see 4 yourself, U may just like it!
- priegog, on 05/02/2008, -2/+7Agreed... Probably too good for this show. Don't get me wrong I used to LOVE this show, (recently stopped watching) but somewhere along seasons 4-5 they started making a consistent number of mistakes that turned into a sick joke for all superman fans (And well to all who say it was so from the beginning, I disagree. It had potential...). With the exception of John Glover, Michael was clearly the best actor (which isn't a lot to say in Smallville, but he genuinly is a great actor). And lastly... aside from the horrible. horrible writing and directing, Smallville has suffered from the very beggining the Star Wars syndrome: A possibly otherwise great production, but with actors who can't act to save their lives (Imagine my histerical laughing attack when I read Tom Welling was being considered for the Superman Returns movie). But hey, such is the showbiz... After Smallville dies (and with these news it should accelerate the process), hopefully the rights will be given to someone who gives a *****. Damn you Miles/Millar!
- priegog, on 05/02/2008, -1/+6Fanboi alert...
- dougmc, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5My guess is that he will fly on the last episode of the series.
They'll tease us with it until then, but it won't really happen until the very end. - kinseyincanada, on 05/02/2008, -2/+7the new seasons are actually pretty good, they are darker and more in lin e in what the comics would be, it stopped being a teen drama.
- inactive, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5It has its ups and downs.
Lex was by far the best part of the show. Gonna be damn hard to keep my interest without him around.
if you have a lot of free time to fill, its worth watching. Netflix is a great way to do it too. But I wouldnt make time for it if you have other ***** to do. - JakeyG14, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5Ahhhh Kimberly, times were simpler back then.
- damndj, on 05/02/2008, -2/+7MR is way too good for Smallville.
- ashmon, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5Yah, seasons 4-7 didn't ruin everything. In my book, as soon as the sexytime starts, the show is over. Not cuz I don't like sexytime myself, I just hate it because once that door is opened, that's all the show turns into from then on. Out goes the real story lines and in comes the "who's sleeping with whom" story lines till the show is canceled. It's mentally lazy of the writers to pander to the sexual side of things because they think that's what we want to see. The problem is that sex becomes the story, and we lose any modicum of respect or interest in the rest of the show.
I mean, who hasn't had sex before? errrr... wait, this is Digg after all.
Please disregard this post. - 2shae, on 05/02/2008, -0/+4Her real name is Kristin Kreuk...you're watching Smallville to much :P
- EnzanBlues, on 05/02/2008, -0/+4Couldn't agree with you more. Lana is the most worthless character. TPTB should have killed her years ago. Well they did in the #100 episode then Clark just had to go back in time and rather have his father killed. When I saw that episode and she died it brought joy to my heart. Then when Jor 'El let Clark go back to stop it a little piece of me died inside.
- professorfurley, on 05/02/2008, -19/+23smallville is still on tv?
