When does the CW post the latest ep? Their site is a pain in the ass.

Really? I'm guessing this is only for Smallville right? I saw "get full episodes here" on the site so I that must've been for another show.

Gina was played by Anna Galvin - http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0303442/

If you see this before 7:00 pm ET tonight - the episode of Stargate SG-1 she appears in (she plays Dr. Reya Varrick) from 2006 starts on Sci-FI at that time.

LB...

Was there ever a "Mercy Graves" working for Lex on Smallville? I loved her in the Cartoons.

I see they are slowly getting rid of everyone over 40 like they did on 90210.
Good solid episode.

I was thinking it was all a dream sequence at the beginning when Lionel was in front of the window....at the very least I thought there would be a reset... but none of that... no Lana...no BS...just drama and a damn good story line...wow, this could be a great remainder of the season and who knows where S8 goes?

whotony · 04-19-08, 11:01 PM

pretty clear the guy who killed her was working for lex.
i really doubt he was anything more then evil generic henchman #36

riley_dude · 04-20-08, 01:23 PM

No, it should be up to at least Evil generic henchman # 42 by now.

Kdogg · 04-20-08, 04:49 PM

I seldom nitpick at this show, but why doesn't Chloe put the key down her blouse or in her pocket instead the desk drawer? That goes beyond poor writing into just lazy writing.

Draven · 04-20-08, 07:58 PM

Decent ep. I didn't think it was as earth-shattering as it could have been (of all the characters, Lionel is the "safest" to kill) but at least it started to move things forward.

Now why couldn't Lana have been at the window too? Then it would have been the best episode of all time.

2SwiFt29 · 04-21-08, 03:03 PM

damn. did Smallville new episodes come back on 4/17? i missed it.. luckily i should have it on DVR

Michael Corvin · 04-22-08, 12:28 AM

Wow. Fucking great episode. Looks like Millar and Gough are going to get some things out they've wanted to do before the show ended. Should make the final few episodes jam packed with what the fans have been wanting.

ER comes to mind.

I was wondering when Clark saw Chloe knocked out, why didn't he X-ray the building to see if the assailant was still around. Equally lazy.

agreed, that was dumb as hell. nonetheless, best episode in awhile.

Timber · 04-22-08, 10:05 PM

A strong last several episodes they put together (just watched the last 5) except for the one that will not be named. Lex is bad ass now, and it's about time. Clark finally has some balls, and Lana is no where to be found.

I'm not really sure what the writers where thinking though putting out a season finale caliber episode in April. They must have gotten there calender dates confused.

Like I posted, I presume that since Millar and Gough are out of there after this season there are probably some goals and loose threads they'd like to tie up and leave their mark on. Just a guess though.
