I hope this thread doesn't degenerate into "Smallville Sucks". If you feel that way, as the author of this thread I ask you to please move on. I don't crap in other folks threads about things I don't like or care about. I'd ask you to do the same.
Overall, I felt this was a pretty strong finale. Honestly I feel this season has lost quite a bit of steam since Green Arrow departed with the Justice League. The soap opera emphasis on Lana has increased, although they did take it to some interesting places. This episode seemed to pick up the "umph" of the earlier part of the season and run with it. It was a little too fast-paced, I felt they should have sacrificed some of the filler episodes to expand elements of this one, but the break-neck pace did hammer home the urgency of things.
Now SPOILERS:
1. Lana SO got into that truck that went past right before her car went boom.
2. Martian Manhunter worked with Jor-El...WHAT? They got some 'splainin' to do.
3. Bizarro Clark YEAH!
4. Clark finally tells Lana. Glad that's finally over with
5. Martha leaving. That sucks. Although they haven't done a thing with her all year basically.
6. Chloe had better not be dead. They teased us with Lana's death once before, and we lost Jonathan Kent. If we lose Chloe instead of Lana...
I hope they wrap up all the danglers in the season opener (or at least the first few episodes). They sometimes have a habit of wrapping up things too quickly in the openers and not answering all the questions from the previous finale. I'm betting Lana will presume dead for a good chunk of the first part of Season 7 while Lex stews in prison. Just a guess.
