I haven't really been following this season much, although coming back to watch the final stretch. What is Darkseid off doing? Drinking magaritas and watching chick flicks?

Finally an episode with Tess as a central character.

I had no idea Tess had "those".

Re: Smallville -- "Kent" -- 4/15/11

I'm sort of having a problem here. I thought this was a phenomenal episode but then I think with "only X episodes until the finale" that this was a waste. It tied up a loose end that didn't really need to be tied up I don't think.

Re: Smallville -- "Kent" -- 4/15/11

I like the episode overall. Great to see Jonathan back. I sorta hoped they were bringing him into this reality. Oh and Tess' rack was phenomenal.

One thing bugged me though. Clark basically teleported himself for no apparent reason. CL rushed CK and CK just sorta sent himself to the alternate universe. Was he hoping to send both himself and CL back but jumped the gun and thus only sent himself?

I had the impression that CL activated the device before CK knew what was happening

Filler episode but OK. Jonathan, Tess in that dress, and Clark Luthor were the best parts tonight.

I agree Darkseid has been wasted this season; I liked seasons 8 and 9 as they were more involved with Doomsday and Zod. Darkseid is my favorite Superman villain so I was expecting a lot this season.

Except that CK was holding it the whole time and the insert of the device being turned in order to activate it was of CK's hands. We only see CL rush him but never handle the device while it's briefly in CK's possesion.

Come on guys, Darkseid isn't the villain this season, it's "The Darkness"

Yeah - I'm really looking forward to that.

I really liked the JL episode with him in it.

Jonathan was nice, but clearly Tess' evening gown and it's contents were the highlight.

Glad the other Jonathon has potential for a better life but why sell the Farm? Yeah, they want to move on but that's the Kent Farm!

Well it's not like they'll be living in it anymore. Though a more reasonable approach would have been to rent it out.

Re: Smallville -- "Kent" -- 4/15/11

I was entertained by this episode. Although I really didn't like we needed a follow up to the Clark Luthor/Alternate Universe storyline this late in the season/series. I was already happy with the "Luthor" episode. It was nice to see John Schneider again though.

Agree about Tess. I've always thought that Cassidy Freeman was hot, but glad we finally saw some of her God given assets.

I had to laugh at how Clark Luthor is such an arrogant piece of shit that he couldn't even fool Lois.

BTW, WTF happened with Clark Luthor at the end? He was talking to Jor-El in the fortress of solitude and then they cut away from it with no explanation.

Re: Smallville -- "Kent" -- 4/15/11

^^ I got the impression that Jor El sent him back to the fortress in his own universe

Yeah. The way it played out it seemed that CK's Jor El sent CL to meet his Jor El.

Right. When they pulled back, you could see it wasn't the "our universe" fortress.
