I’ve just finished catching up with the last dozen episodes of Smallville (pretty much the Impulse appearance onwards). The stickler as it turned out was the episode where Lionel Luthor swapped bodies with Clark – it looks like everybody is going to have a secret identity this season – for some reason I just couldn’t watch beyond the teaser without getting a feeling of dread and heading off to do something else. Thankfully I finally stuck with it as it turned out to be one of the better episodes of the season.
What can we say about evil Lana! Kristin Kreuk certainly seems to relish the chance to play outside of the normal Lana zone.
If Chloe gets any more obvious with her hints to Clark she’ll turn a into Monty Python sketch. (“Know what I mean! Nudge. Nudge. Wink. Wink”)
I loved the moment where Lex could easily have lied to Lana about who got Jason sacked. You could see the conflicted pause as he weighted up whether to tell her and you just wanted to scream at the screen for him to do the right thing. It’s a testament to the writers and to Michael Rosenbaum that they actually make you care whether Lex falls to the darkness or not.
