I am loving this season of Smallville. Did they get better writters this season or did they just want to go out with a bang? This is what the show should have been all along.

Wait, I've been skipping Smallville but I just saw a promo featuring
really? Am I imagining this?
I looked at the spoilers and I guess it's true. I guess I'll have to watch at least these 2 eps.

I mean come on, I watched Friday night's ep and now Kal-El is crying to his Daddy about not being able to fly like Kara. Wow.

Interesting read. They raise some good points. Just from keeping up with the threads on here though, I don't think that this season has been a disappointment at all. Most people here, and I agree, have been saying it's the best season in years.
The producers of the show have pretty much written themselves into a corner though. If they decide to come back another year, it's going to be hard to keep delaying the inevitable Superman reveal.

Just caught up with this episode.
Loved it. Especially the Clark and Lois hand holding. Anyhow, definitley the strongest season of Smallville since season 5 IMO.

I think that article has some good ponits to an extent. What I think fails to realize in my opinion is that this incarnation of the Superman mythos has shown long ago that it doesn't follow all of the "traditional" elements of cannon. Yes I know that varies, which is a large issue with what they believe to be true anyway.
For example, I seriously doubt that Lois/Clark/Superman will go through what Lois/Clark/Blur are going through now. I think it's a proxy since they aren't allowed to use the Superman name. As a result what we are seeing is different than what some of us might expect to see.

Yeah, Smallville is pretty much an elseworlds look at a different spin in the Superman myth. You can't fathom that these characters will go on to do the Lois/Clark/Superman triangle, or that Clark and Lex will battle in Metropolis with Lex not knowing who Superman is. It's just it's own thing, which is cool. I, like you all, just wish they could go all the way with it. Even if Superman doesn't wear the classic uniform.
