Confirmed: Next Season is Last for Smallville

[The Toyroom]

...at least that's what I heard....

I don't mind if it is. But let's go out with a bang and bring in Bruce Wayne, Diana Price, form the JLA and give him the suit.

[Nostalgiabuff]

^^ amen to that Scott. it's long past time they give him the suit and let him meet Bruce and Diana already. I mean he's already met so many second stringers it's getting ridiculous.

[samurainoir]

Great! We finally get to see all the things we've been waiting to see the last decade!

I want to believe Clark can fly!

[toys2cool]

it's lasted way longer then I expected at first

[BlackKnight]

oh no .... "Can someone Saaaaaaaavve Me ....."

I agree. I remember when it first aired the producers said they had a five year plan. Since it's gone on twice as long I think they lost their way sometimes. And if they REALLY can't show Bruce and Diana I'd settle for Hal, Barry and Dick.

Well in the season finale, Ma Kent left him the suit in a box. They showed the reflection of the emblem on the blue shirt in his eye.

it would really be cool if they put him in the suit all next season but didn't announce it.

I'd love to see Bruce and Diana, too. I think they substituted Ollie Queen for Bruce when Warners wouldn't let them use the Batman characters.

I think using Hal Jordan prior to getting the ring would be cool and would be some pretty good synergy with the GL film next year.

I think it would be really tough introducing Diana, but would love to see it.

I have such a love/hate relationship with this show. The highs are so good and the disappointment is so low. The last few seasons have started pretty strong only to just fade into...meh. I have stuck with it, sometimes out of feeling involved and sometimes out of sheer will to see it through. At times, I have arranged my schedule to watch (not wanting to wait for the DVR) and I have to admit that right now, I have about four or five episodes in queue waiting to be seen.

I'm just ready to get off the merry-go-round already.

If that's true I'm going to miss it.
This was one of the best seasons of the whole series.

It's time. I've stuck with it through almost all of it (I bailed on them for several months this season after last year's fiasco finale, but I came back). I think they've gone as far as they can with the limitations set on the series by the original producers, and by Warners movie division's edicts to not use the suit, Bruce, etc. I doubt we'll see Bruce, but we may see the suit. It would be great if he would wear it throughout the next season. But if he puts it on in the finale, I won't complain.

Hopefully they are starting talks with Rosenbaum NOW to return as Lex, at least for the series ender.

I know only what you've guys expressed about the show over the years...
but, as a SUPERMAN fan...and just a fan of "cool stuff" in general....I think
it'd be QUITE novel to have a decade long "SUPERMAN" series only have
Clark don the suit in the last few seconds of the last episode.

Its almost like, if they make any other choice, it cheapens the long, long run
with the novel idea of NOT having the suit.

I know its been tough on the SUPES fans that have followed the show, but
why shake it up now...near the end of such a glorious run based on
such a unique idea? Is what I'm thinking anyway.

I'd settle for Jay Garrick, Alan Scott, and Helena Wayne

Just read that Allison Mack is not returning as a regular for next season. She will be in a few episodes to wrap up Chloe's story. And next season IS the last season. CW confirmed it.

All i ask is that it ends with him in the suit....I think for reruns it would be worth it.
But if it doesn't it'll be a big disappointment .....
