Anyone notice the resemblance to Angel when he went sunlight-postal?
From next week's teaser, it appears he'll tell Lana but they're gonna drag it out five episodes? |
Clark: "our family doesn't fly much"
Lex: "well that's all about to change soon" |
Overall, an okay episode. Having Martha Kent become Lionel's personal assistant will have trouble brewing in the future. Jonathan's going go ape one of these days.
The whole cold shoulder thing between Lana to Clark makes me remember those high school days so unfondly, but it doesn't get any better as you get older. I thought Lana looked especially yummy this episode, like she's almost getting out of that young teenager look (in real life). Lana got to tag Clark with the "Clark Kent, the man of steel" line. Chloe's been pushed to the background, and Pete doesn't know when to run. The misunderstood poetic "bad guy" main plot only served to give Lionel another chance to do some blind man detecting as Clark shows up and deals with Byron. I'll bet Lionel is on to Clark. The other part is getting Clark to become a bit more mushier towards Lana (with the poetry angle). Love the limerick book Clark gave Byron. I wonder why they didn't show any previews for next week's episode? |

What I want to know is how in the heck reverse-vampire boy was able to actually hold a helicopter down? I don't care how strong he is, even if he latched onto the helicopter, it would only add the weight of a human being. The helicopter should have lifted right up with Byron attached, just like it was carrying four people instead of three. |
Yes, character development is great, but...
Please, please, please, no more "freak of the week" to drive it. It was getting old even last season. Aren't the Luthors enough? |
Just as I predicted.....crappy episode (IMO before the fireman come out).
And if this seasons pattern holds next episode should be damn good. |
I hope Clark doesn't tell Lana. I think the show will go down the hill after this. Does anyone else besides me enjoy the vivid farmland backgrounds I think the show looks great. I bet it would look even better if I had HDTV. I was hopping they would develop Clark with an interest in journalism. He writes for a newspaper in the future. Also Clark needs to battle someone that matches up to him. It is basically Clark kicking every freak of the week's butt. They should have someone who gives Clark trouble for a few weeks instead of Lana.

One more thing, Smallville is starting to rack up in the ratings. One week 8.9 million people watched the show (I think that is a Wb record) and I wonder what the ratings would be like if everyone received the WB network, they didn't show reruns on Sunday, and you would have to watch on Tuesday? Also, I think the ratings might go down a little when 24 comes back on. Some people might start to watch 24 on Tuesday and wait til Sunday to watch Smallville.

Does anyone know how many episodes they will be making this year? 20, 22, or 24. I am hoping for 24.

And in response to Lionel apparently looking at his watch: I though he opened it up and felt it, that it was a watch with braile, but it did look like he looked at it with a glance, as if he couldn't read the braile and had to peek at what the time actually was. I do agree that it seems he can see. Either the actor playing the character cannot act blind, or they are leading up to something. If he can see....whoa, Clark is in serious trouble later on! But if he was really blind, wouldn't his eyes be clouded over? I know, that's not necesarrily the way all eyes are for blind people, but from a TV show stand point, to emphasise the point, wouldn't they make him wear contacts to make his pupils grey? There are too many times his eyes follow people as they walk and talk, and as I said either he's a poor actor or he's wearing those dark glasses to conceal the fact he can see. |
too bad the bad guy holding the chopper to the ground was really lame
I realize the show is completely fake, but that was going too far did the drug make the guy weigh 40 tons too |
I thought it was an awesome episode, i think clark will be revealing his identity to Lana pretty soon though, i really hope also
|
I like this episode especially the interaction between Clark and Lana. Their dialog at the end strongly hinted that Lana already know much about Clark's power. I hope once Clark revealed his id to Lana, their relationship will still be interesting to watch.

Damn, i thought tonights show was a big POS. I got bored watching it. I hope we don't see that poet boy in any future episodes.

Well, I was almost right from my prediction in last week's thread:
Originally posted by immortal_zeus Question regarding next week's preview: Is it just me, or did that dude that was macking on Lana look like he was a vampire or had some kind of vampirish vibe to him? Did anybody else notice that Clark was wearing a blue t-shirt and red jacket? :D I thought Lana's "Clark Kent, Man of Steel" line was kinda lame. It just didn't fit and it seems like the writers just threw that in there. Clark giving Byron the book of limericks was funny. I hadn't seen Richard Moll in a long time. I remember him fondly from his "Night Court" days as Bull. :D Frankly, I'd like to see Lex and Lana hook up because I think it would make for an interesting storyline down the road because it can be another reason why Lex and Clark become enemies. I doubt it'll happen, though, unless Lana sees a softer side of Lex that Lex only shows to Clark. :p Pete should be dead or paralyzed. Going through a windshield at the velocity that Byron threw him would have given Pete more than a broken arm. Then again, I have to remind myself that the show is fake. As for Byron being able to hold down the helicopter, it was obviously done poorly, but I just attributed it to him maybe being able to gain more mass in his Jekyll state. http://www.ameritech.net/users/dvdtalk/rome.gif |
Oh, and in case you guys didn't know, Lionel's anecdote about Zeus and Prometheus was a shout out to me! :D
Just kidding. http://www.ameritech.net/users/dvdtalk/rome.gif |
when the byron morph, he seems more like a werewolf than a vampire, since werewolf tends to be stronger than a vampire.

Ok, is it just me or did we get totally scammed by the WB's preview of the episode last week? They made it out to seem like Clark would have to finally make his move on Lana or lose her to vampire boy. IIRC, they even showed him about to kiss her. I kept waiting on that to happen, and it never did. :(
Another thing, and I'm surprised no one has mentioned it yet. When vampire boy attacks the helicoptor, Clark and Lex were inside talking (hence the Kent's are about to fly a lot more comment). Then suddenly Clark's outside stopping vampire boy. But where did Lex vanish to, and why wasn't he there to see Clark fight the guy? Then later he's even surprised that Clark was there to stop him. Very disjointed, IMO. |
The Lex Angle...I believe he was just about to leave (I'd have to watch my tape again) on business when his father's helicopter came.
This was a crappy episode, especially set against last week's episode (which was great...but then again the writer has written for the Superman comic books before and is currently doing so now). I think the preview was a cavalcade of shots from the upcoming 5 new episodes. I think it is funny that they stressed the "5 all-new episodes" when all we've had was new episodes recently. I guarantee Lana will know...either during the months of November, February or May. She knows in the comics, it is bound to happen in the show. The part I thought was funny was when Lana brushed off Byron's actions because "he was a different person", but last week she didn't brush off Clark's actions even though he was a different person (and told her so). Ironic, eh? |

I agree with Eric. Freak of the weak is getting old.
Did like that they gave Martha something to do and Bull from Nightcourt was there. They should have had Markie Post as the Mother. |
