I sure had a good time catching up the last few weeks with this show. It is one of those things where you don't sit down intending to watch the show per se, it just happens to be on and you watch it. For me it has been Wednesday nights and the last few weeks they have played all the episodes from the previous season two at a time every Wednesday on WB. I have watched this show from time to time, but not with any level of continuity until now.
****************HUGE spoilers ahead***********
Well, now I can't wait until the season Premier on the 22nd of September (1 week). I will actually be on a plane when it is on, but I will use my VCR for the first time in years to make sure I get this thing. (Anyone know when they show replays if they do?) Either way - last season every event led up to the last 90 seconds of the finale. WOW! Not expected at all. Seemed like they would just keep going in the circle that they did with Lex / Lana / Lionel - unfinished conversations and business just so they could keep having episodes. Then - Lionel has Lex and Chloe killed and Clark is gone into the fissure in the cave. Crazy. When you see Lionel getting his head shaved, it all comes together.
For years you ask yourself in the background <i>I know Lex Luthor is Clark's enemy and yet how does he become the evil villan that he does. It seems like there is some good in him. </i>Well, looks like he doesn't. He is freakin Dead and Lionel becomes Lex in a way somehow. Maybe he just takes his name but whatever. It will be really cool to see what happens next with this stuff.
Anyone else like this show? Seems like some of you do - although this thread is pretty crusty and old.
