This is one of my "don't miss" shows. The first season had a lot of the so-called "freak of the week" shows where some poor kid had some form of Kryptonite poisoning and ended up becoming a monster that died, but the second season has had more elements revealing who Clark will become and the turmoil he is going through when coming to grips with who he is.
The two most interesting characters, though, have got to be Lex & Lionel Luthor. It's fascinating to see Lex go from a "good" guy into small periods of darkness and wonder what's going to send him over the edge. Lionel is a real snake, and you have to figure that he'll play a huge part in Lex's undoing.
There's a lot to offer in this show, and I hope the WB doesn't screw it up by tinkering with what works.
