you said it! It's just boring, and I *hate* that they killed of Johnathan Kent. The show suffers without his presence, Marth's all but been written out, the Clark/Lana/Lex thing is boring, and all the new guest metas--Flash, Black Canary, Green Arrow--seem more cartoonish than cool. Jor-El --his soul or emgrams or computer copy or whatever--is a controlling jerk, and they've put this Krypton on Earth angle way too much into the show. And like I said before, at this time in his life, Clark in the comics was depicted as having gone on his ten-year journey of the world. So why's he still hanging out in Smallville? The so-called "Lost Years" are supposed to be where he met some of the other heroes he'd later work with, but the writers are bringing the whole freakin' superhero world to Smallville!
Can't imagine what in the world they can do to make it interesting for another year, unless they do three things: make Lex fully evil and kill off his dad...start the events which will lead I believe to Chloe's death (She's not a character in the comics, and she once told Clark "I'd die before revealing your secret", a bit of foreshadowing I believe)...get Clark on the road, literally, so he can go out in the world and learn about it. -------------- Original message -------------- From: Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Of this list, I'll take "Supernatural" for renewal. "Smallville", as Keith has said time and again, has jumped the shark, and really needs to be put out to pasture. This week, Bizarro is *standing in for Clark* ??????? Bye, folks.

Smallville will return for Season 8 and Supernatural for Season 4 this fall. Supernatural fans should be particularly happy to hear about that show's early pickup, as previous years had the show much more on the bubble with the decision to pick it up made later in the season. The other pickups include the next two installments of America's Next Top Model (Season 11 and 12), a second season for Gossip Girl, a sixth season for One Tree Hill and a fourth season for Everybody Hates Chris. http://tv.ign.com/articles/856/856388p1.html Yahoo!
