Smallville kicked...

[kingdom warrior]

I watched late last night really enjoyed it......

Great ep, & so good to see Martha again.

Some really fine touching & dramatic moments--I think the finally will rock!

Lucas Grabell did play Lex before like you said Jim, and he's also one of the stars of Disney's High School Musical movies, but we'll forgive him.

What was up with the needle? Precursor to Conner Kent?

^ Yea, that left me scratching my head.

[jwyblejr]

Wasn't it hinted at somewhere in the series Lex was suppose to have superpowers too? Maybe with him aging so fast,they're developing just as fast if not faster.

It is such a bummer they wont continue this in a movie. I wish some other net work would pick up the series...with all the crap on tv I cant believe not one net work can buy it. That just pain sux,

the show is not being cancelled per se, the cast does not want to continue, if Tom Welling is done, the show is done.
great episode....really coming together towards the finale. About time they put clark in glasses so he can become the man of tomorrow.
I always figured Rosenbaum would be back, he was just playing the PR game to get more money out of it. I hope they don't bring Lana back though, that storyline was done to death several times.
.
question about last weeks episode though, wasn't Stargirl, Impulse and Aquaman with them in the virtual world? they left them trapped there apparently

Loved the episode and yes the rumors were true! friday night Michael signed the contract for the 2 hr finale there were some rumors going around he was not going to do it ever come back but these were proven to be fake. Can't wait to see Lex back!

[VintageMike]

Been loving Smallville, glad to see it will go out grandly.

[saildog]

As far as the original Lex actor returning; am I the only one assuming he's just going to play the clone grown up? The clone has all his memories so essentially it IS the original Lex in a new body.

I wondered about that, too, Rich.

I suppose they could go either way. As long as it's Rosenbaum, I think either set up would play out well.

[Nostalgiabuff]

wasn't Lex replaced by a clone in the comics anyway? back in the late eighties/early nineties, they played it like he was Lex's illegitimate son, from Australia or some such as I recall. So they could definately play it that way on Smallville

[ozcollector1992]

Thats weird because when Ollie killed who we though was the original Lex in Smallville, Lex was wearing a kryptonite ring. Im guessing they are going this route then

yeah, Luthor got cancer from wearing the kryptonite ring in the comics. Glad Rossenbaum is back for the finale. He and Lionel were the most compelling aspect of the series for the longest time. His and the scriptwriters characterization of Luthor on the show actually allowed you to empathize with the character, something that's missing in every other incarnation of Luthor.

I don't think the Pete Ross character will be back. The actor that played him was arrested on drug charges not too long ago.

Really, Smallville's best work, IMO, always revolved around Luthor and the Kents. Lois has become a better character the last couple of years.

SPOILER ALERT!
Im just wanted to say that i was wrong before and the clone of Lex is NOT going to become Lex Luthor i just saw this SPOILERS: Smallville - Get Ready For Conner Kent
and it seems pretty legit to me.....definitely not the actor i would have picked for superboy just saying

[jwyblejr]

Wait,if he's got Clark's DNA,why didn't the Kryptonite bullets affect him?

[Earth 2 Chris]

My guess is Clarks DNA is "writing over" Lex's, and that's why he is forgetting things, and switching from straight Lex clone to Lex/Clark combo like Conner of the comics.

But that's just a guess. The fact that they are going in this direction is totally throwing me. These guys are really just going for it this season!
