  • Summary: Smallville tells the tale of a teenage Clark Kent in the days before he was Superman. It is the town where he came from where very strange things started happening with his arrival in a spaceship in the midst of a meteor storm of green rocks. Clark must deal with a variety of individuals given powers by the green rocks, keep his powers a secret, cope with his friendship with a young Lex Luthor, and balance the two girls in his life, Chloe and Lana. The show also shows us how Lex Luthor develops from a friend of Clark's and kinda-okay guy to (presumably) the villain who will plague Superman in his later years.… Collapse

    This season brings the show back to life with the introduction of the adult world, Doomsday and Green Arrow/Oliver Queen. Seriously want to see a Green Arrow spin-off in Star City, and I'm fairly sure fans would follow such a series. Big-ups to Justin Hartley for winning over an audience quickly within a very well established show. We lose Jimmy Olsen this season and I cannot understand why the writers chose this. Jimmy is Superman mainstay. So down 3 points for that but up 2 points for Justin. So I give this season a 9.… Expand
