LOVED WITHER! The whole Clark/Chloe/Jimmy angle was SOOOO SEXY! In the talon apartment Clark looked so jealous! I loved it because of the Chimmy love and because of the dynamic Chlark this season i was in LOVE

i think we all forgetting this is a program...which means it not real...no matter how much will love it to be, it not...i am a chloe fan and i have to admit i stopped watching smallville when they introduced in lois as the future clark girl...i mean she can't be d real lois, she does not look nor act like her...and wat right does she have to come in after so many years and steal chloe's man...with all the hard work chloe as put into her relationship with clark..all the stuff that his worth the wait...and don't forget people, that chloe role is not part of the original story or comic and that they she was made up...i wanna know why...why was chloe made up...for wat reason did they think the show needed a girl that was not part of the original story....wat is her role in smallville or superman...i think the answer is right in front of us...it's because this is not the retold story of superman..it is the story of clark kent and we don't know how it unfolds yet...but we know one thing...chloe is there for a reason...she is what set the show apart from the other superman....she doesn't have to become lois lane...she is already lois lane for clark kent.

First off, mentioning the Chlois thing grates on my nerves a bit, and I am a HUGE Chloe fan. Personally, since it's been well established that Chloe can do *more* than just "write well" (I'm looking at you, Lois) what with her hacker skills and, you know, possessing a personality (Now I'm looking at you, Lana) why should she be relegated to a Lois knock-off? Make her join the CIA, her Uncle's a 4-Star General right?

It would be cool to contemplate Chlois, if only I weren't positive that they're pulling our legs, especially with that Black Canary crack. Cool, but you guys are cruel to reference Chlois, and then talk about a Chloe/Jimmy baby at the end. That just makes me mad. You heard our pleas to throw Chloe a bone, and you gave her table scraps. Jimmy Olsen? *Jimmy* *Olsen*?! Really?! REALLY?! WE WANT CHLOE/CLARK! WE WANT CHLOE/CLARK! WE WANT CHLOE/CLARK! WE WANT- You get my point, right?

But seriously, you have got to at least do something in the realm of Chloe/Clark before the writers lose the plot again like they do every season after sweeps. You wonder why Season 5 was a ratings Renaissance? The Chlark. It's all Chlark. I BOUGHT Season 5, and I never buy TV Series DVDs. So congrats on that.

Clark + Chloe = $PROFIT$

And I'm proof of it.

Also, heroic Clark gives me chills. In a good way. Keep it up. You might rediscover the "Super" in the "Man" yet.

Good luck.

Re: Lex/Lana in "Wither". Gosh, I so loved all their scenes, from the first to the last. I loved it that they had some problems/issues and that they dealt with them, together. I loved how she answered his question in the end. I loved what he said to Clark about doing whatever it takes so that she can be in his world. I loved when he said to her: "I'd be lying if I said I didn't struggle against my nature every day to have this with you". How did she not melt there? That was hella romantic. … And then, when he saw her for the first time at the ball, the way he looked at her as the camera slowly zoomed in - I loved it. (He’s gorgeous!) They're my ship of course, and w/ an eppy like this: how can I not be happy? Floating. I loved it. They were beautiful.

Also…

Re: Chloe as the real Lois though. I think it's totally plausible and I don't believe the show has dismissed it at all. The theory continues because there are many who believe it and with each eppy, that Chloe does something that makes her seem very Lois-y, that base only strengthens.

Lexana should end as soon as possible. It is not doing any good. Is this the reason for Lex's descent to darkness? It is a lame one

agree with GG, there are really very few Chloe fans and the other fans do not like the Chlois theory. The Lana and Lois fans all hate it. If the few Chloe fans did not constantly write on these websites, the important things about the show could be discussed. I use to think the Lana fans were bad but at least they were not hateful

Ah, yes, the right-thinking speaker for all fans everywhere have appeared. This has got to be the most laughable excuse yet for the unpopularity of EDLois. Seriously, no fans? Gosh, Kryptonsite must have surely rigged their polls, huh? Hateful? Of the character of Lois Lane, yes. But please continue to inaccurately characterise character problems with Lois Lane. It just reflects back on your desperation to ridicule an intelligent, well developed character and her fans when there's nothing left for you to do.

ok..so we get it...some ppl absolutely LOVE the Chlois Theory and some ppl absolutely HATE it...nothing wrong with that...it is true for most things in life.

Let's not get over-excited about it....the SV writers will take this where ever they want to go anyway....the theory, whether it will be true or not...is just the talked about "thing" in Smallville now. I'm not saying its a fad, i'm not saying it's not a fad-this is just the way it is.

It's similar to when Lana (or maybe Clana) was the "thing" on Smallville for 5 freakin years. It was "the thing" that ppl talked about: "When would they get together?", "When would they break up?", "ohhh, look, he proposed!"...sound familiar???

so, what's the next "thing"..."Where did the fortress go?", "Is Lionel really good?"..who knows what it will be next..

Oh For The Love of everything good , prefect & Holy

I'm getting freaking sick & Tired of listen to This load of Bull about Chloe being "The Real Lois Lane" .

What is it going to take for you people to get it throught your Brains that The Chlois Theory is Bullshit.

Just like The Whole Jor-EL = Zod theory that was around from since season 2 till season 6.

It looks like the only way this theory is going to be put to rest forever is when Chloe is killed off [and doesn't return] .

***************************

hmmm....a little harsh aren't we? So we all have differing opinions....do we need to have such a desire for death on this show, just to stop the opinion of some fans?

I can't believe all I spent all this time and money on Smallville to end up with a bad Lana sleeping with a winner-good-guy Lex and a wimpy-can-talk Clark having to be saved by Chloe. Just make Lex the star of the show. Let him sleep now with Chloe, Lois and even Martha. I can believe SV has gotten this bad. Never again will I invest this much in a TV show. I should know better I'm 57 years old, but I used to always be a Superman fan. But if this Clark is Superman, never again!

I agree with GG, there are really very few Chloe fans and the other fans do not like the Chlois theory. The Lana and Lois fans all hate it. If the few Chloe fans did not constantly write on these websites, the important things about the show could be discussed. I use to think the Lana fans were bad but at least they were not hateful!

All I can say is I will be glad when Smallville goes off the air. I have followed the Superman legend for 45 years and have never seem as much damage done to it as what is now happening in Smallville. I really really hope Smallville doesn't make it through this season! Die-hard Superman fans hate to see the major characters of Superman defaced! Even Lex's character but especially Martha, Lana, and Lois! Lois is a joke on SV. Martha has always been the sweet loving mother, and Lana was protrayed as the woman that made Clark into Superman.

Hey, Al and Miles! Why don't you have Lex and Lionel both to have sex with Martha too. That would surely cause Clark more anguish! Now no matter who Clark ends up with, Lana, Lois, or Chloe, he is getting sloppy seconds. Nice thought for Superman.

Smallville is down the tube! It stinks! Surely there is something that Al/Miles can do to make it worse but I'm not sure what it can be!

Why don't we have Lex and Clark as a love interest. Everyone else is coupled up. It doesn't seem to matter if you good or evil...just stick 'em together! Smallville use to be a very sweet show. It made you feel good to watch! Now all I feel is disgust! Evil Lex and Lionel win and gets the girls and Clark acts like a stupid loser and a dork.

Smallville is very not Smallville any more. It is a major disappointment that has turned into a soap opera. It is also changing the Superman legend in a very bad way.

Chlois is spreading into the mainstream media. Entertainment Weekly's popwatch blogger likes the Chlois theory too.

"I wish you Chloe fans would make your own web site like the Lana fans did. Nothing can be discussed on this web site because of a few Chloe fans posting every few minutes. I would just like to talk about Clark and the show!"

Since the post specifically mentioned the Chloe-as-Lois theory, you can hardly expect Chloe fans to refrain from commenting on that idea. At any rate, Chloe was important in this episode, as she frequently is. She may not be a "canon" character in the Superman comics, but she's a major character on *this particular show.*

"Lois and Clark are the main characters in this story, please treat them as the way they deserve! Make Lois and Clark the reporter team and bring them together please!!!!"

Actually, "Lois" has only been on the show for two seasons, and is only in thirteen episodes a year. Chloe appears in almost every episode (and did appear in every episode last year) and plays a major part in virtually every episode. You could far more logically argue that Clark and Chloe are the main characters of the show (although I'd argue that Lex and Lana are main characters as well). At this point in time, "Lois" is only a supporting character.

*****************************
Chloe could have provide facts to back up her claim of Lex. It is not like she have absolutlely nothing in the world on him. Friends are supposed to watch out for the other friend. This action by Chloe also doesn't seems like it would have been made by her character.
***************************

Your right Chloe could have told Lana all the events she had experienced with Lex over the years. But she would not have been able to prove any of it. Because of this Lana would probably react the same way she did with Clark when he tried to tell Lana the samething about Lex. Ergo if Chloe did tell Lana all the information on Lex it would be the end of their friendship; unless Chloe could prove any of it. I think Chloe would rather have a freindship with then not.

This show is becoming a major disappointment

The show is about Clark. He should be the main focus here. It is about his transition into Superman. All the other characters exist for that sole purpose. Chloe could have provide facts to back up her claim of Lex. It is not like she have absolutlely nothing in the world on him. Friends are supposed to watch out for the other friend. This action by Chloe also doesn't seems like it would have been made by her character.

Superman mythology and Wither..hmmm. Well I suppose this episode cemented the fact that the Friendship between Clark and Alexander is now finally over with no hope of ever being salvaged. I did enjoy the early seasons where Alexander was trying to redeem himself from the destiny his farther thrust upon him. It was sad after Lexmas when he choose to side with his farthers old ways. But then if he didn't he would not have become the arch nemesis Lex Luthor. It would have been nice if Lana had been able to change him. But she will find out just like Clark, Lionel, Martha, Chloe and Lois have that he is a ticking time bomb waiting for the last trigger to finally become Naman worst enemy.

quote:
If Chloe was a true friend, she wouldn't have gave her advice like that knowing the person Lex is.

********
She had already told Lana that Lex was nothing but a predator. What should she do next, tie Lana up? The whole conversation wasn't about Lexana BTW, but about LANA herself and her inability to trust.

And I could have sworn Smallville was NOT just about Clark (or Lois and Clark for that matter). It is ALSO about how Lana comes and goes/is the girl left behind AND Lex as he falls from grace to become the villian we all know and live AND how ILL comes to be (be it Chlois or high school failure, college kicked out EDLois)

"I use to hate Lana fans. I swear now the Chloe fan are worse. Come on people wake up! CHLOE WILL NEVER TURN INTO LOIS! CLARK WILL NEVER BE INTERESTED IN CHLOE!"

Dude, why don't you yell at the CW - they're the ones that specifically just brought it up and asked us to discuss it. So please, calm down.

I enjoyed this episode!

I loved the Chloe/Jimmy action. I'd like to see more!

I thought the fights were really lame. And why didn't someone do some research on plants? I was very sad to find out that heat also denatures enzymes in plants... Why didn't Clark just use his heat vision? I'm looking forward to more Zoners of the Weak. Great casting on plant-psycho woman...I enjoyed her in the Aquaman pilot also.

I really loved the Oliver Queen/Lois Lane action. The banter in his loft... the Robin and Maid Marion action at the end.

Lexana was really tender and sexy... I expected to just gag... but was pleasantly surprised...

Anyway... hope the fights improve... I'm still having fun... So far Smallville is 3 for 3. :)

Ps. More Clois please! And if anyone should turn into Black Canary it's Chloe. Chloe as Lois? NOT COOL!!!

Personally, I love Chloe, but I don't expect her to become Lois anytime soon. However, it's not written in Stone that Lana & Lois are Clark's only love interests. There was Lori Lemaris......so I don't see any reason why Chloe couldn't be Clark's Girl for several years.....or at least until they have to part......and when they do part.....it doesn't have to be on bad terms either! I say bring on the Chlark! Chloe is the NEW LORI LEMARIS.....not Lois Lane.

AND I REALLY ENJOYED WITHER!!!!!!!!!!!! FANTASTIC EPISODE!!!!!

Wow. Who knew that Chlark/Chloe fans that are so ignorant, delusional and apparently hate just about evrrryonnnneeeee under the sun in Smallville could inspire such hate-filled posts. All this for a character that will apparently never mean anything to Smallville. *blinks* No one told the writers that I guess, or the new fans that believe in Chlois and the older fans that continue to do so. Chlarkers must be doing something right, just like the writers on Smallville with Chloe.

I wish you Chloe fans would make your own web site like the Lana fans did. Nothing can be discussed on this web site because of a few Chloe fans posting every few minutes. I would just like to talk about Clark and the show!

I use to hate Lana fans. I swear now the Chloe fan are worse. Come on people wake up! CHLOE WILL NEVER TURN INTO LOIS! CLARK WILL NEVER BE INTERESTED IN CHLOE! In the comics and movies, Clark loves Lana until he leaves Smallville. When he gets to the Daily Planet he loves Lois. That is the way it is!

Chloe's advice to Lana was terrible! Come on Chloe fans just admit it! If it were reversed would you want Lana telling Chloe to go sleep with Lex! I am a Clark fan so neither Chloe or Lana matter to me. But fact is fact, Chloe's advice was terrible. But it was still Lana's decision.

What Chloe did was wrong to some extent. She knows better than Lana about Lex. Chloe should have kept on trying to help Lana. If your friend says to you I don't need your help, but you KNOW that she or he does, are you going to let it go? Lex is the kind of person who can go too far to get what he wants that can include hurting Lana. It is just not any person we are talking about here, its Lex.

Chloe may have given bad advice but would have Lana taken it. Lana has made mistacks and so has Chloe advice or other wise. Advice can be hard to give to some one who is blind sided by Love or what ever lana feels for lex. I think she siad what she felt was right. I dont hate erica or lois.

Great points, Rhea, and well said. And all of which can apply to Chloe, Lois and Lana fans on this blog.

It makes me laugh that so many categorize Chloe`s advice as terrible.

Lana has told Chloe to go to hell before when Chloe has tried to voice her real opinion so this was Chloe trying to be impartial and still there for her friend.

Anyone who just wants to put the blame on Chloe for something they don`t like to see Lana doing is just pathetic in my opinion.

I`m a fan of the show, not any one character in particular or any couple either. But people need to stop watching this show with biased blinders on. Accusing other characters of things just because their favorites is acting stupid is childish.

I didn`t find anything wrong with what Chloe said.

Here here! Couldn't have said it better myself =]

vvv

I dont understand why some fans can never accept that there are people out there who simply don't like Chloe's character and have some pretty legitimate problems with it. Not everything boils down to some hidden agenda or motive. If there are fans out there who think Chloe has become an unrealistic character, capable of too much beyond the realm of possibility, with no story outside of being a plot device, then it should be accepted. If there are fans out there who see no romantic chemistry b/w Chloe and Clark, that should be accepted too. As those fan's opinion's. It's just basic courtesy and logic and sense, considering Chloe fans who list off the very many problems they think Lois' character has. Naturally, that is your opinion, and you are entititled to it, and surely every opinion is as right or wrong an opinion as the next person's. Contesting an opinion with another contrary opinion is one thing, and perfectly understandeable, because ofcourse everyone feels differently, but to outright dismiss a contrary opinion as ''completely baseless'' or ''pathetic'' or ''wrong'', just because it doesn't gel with your viewpoint is not right. Saying that Lois simply ''cannot be the worthy'' or is ''definitely useless'' or Chloe ''cannot be anything but amazing'' are such horribly blanket statements. Some people like character A, some like character B. It's all just opinions, both legitimate. I dont like that anybody should be made to feel stupid, ignorant, in the minority or ''clearly wrong'', just because their opinion seems to clash with yours.

I personally like both Lois and Chloe. I disagree quite strongly that Lois is a poor character. I think she's great, and has over the course of the series displayed more than enough Lois Lane traits to leave me in no doubt that she's Smallville's Lois Lane. I love her character, it's story so far, the tons of anvils, her chemistry with her co-stars. I'm excited about her this season more than ever. So there it is, my opinion, that I cant wait to see more of Lois in season 6, her journalism, and her relationship with Clark, all of it.

Chloe's a great character too, I love her friendship with Clark, and her relationship with Lois. I think she can be Super!Chloe in some episodes, but I dont think its a trait that happens excessively, so in my book, so far it's ok. I'll complain about it if/when it begins to bother me.

As for 'Wither' it really was a disastrous episode for Clark, and his character was completely stunted. Lois had some great scenes, and Lex really shone too. I enjoyed some of Chloe's scenes too, and at the ball, Lois, Lana and Martha all looked stunning. Olliver Queen is an extremely interesting addition, but the Lexana sex will leave me cold if there is a baby involved. So I'm hoping for the best! A mixed bag overall.

"Show us Clark waking up to the hottie that is his future wife, Lois Lane."

That's the problem with assuming that you already know exactly how Smallville will play out. The question you have to ask yourself is: "am I an Erica/Tom fan or a Lois/Clark fans?" Because if your the latter, then you need to be open to the possibility that Smallville will reveal Chloe to be the iconic "Lois Lane" that Superman falls in love with (do I even need to remind everyone of the many ways Smallville has already changed the story???). And if that is the case, then what you asked for above is already happening right now! But some people don't care that Chloe might be the real Lois - when you bring it up they cover their ears, close their eyes, and stomp their feet because all they want is Erica's character to be with Tom's.

These people could care less that Erica's Lois is pathetically underqualified to be the iconic Lois Lane. To them, they'd rather have a Lois who flunks out of high school, gets kicked out of college, gets everything on hand outs, and starts her "career" in journalism at the trashiest tabloid in Metropolis than to have Allison's character turn out to be Lois. As long as they get to see Erica and Tom together, they will overlook any and all flaws that this disgrace of a Lois has. Well, I'm a true "iconic Lois Lane" fan first and foremost, so whether or not I pull for EDLois or Chlois depends on which character best does justice to the iconic name. And it's clear to me that that person is Chloe, regardles of what I think of Durance or Mack! So you can blindly support Erica's Lois as the real deal if you want, but you should at least be aware of the possibility that the "Lois and Clark" relationship you claim to be a fan of is already playing out right in front of your faces in the form of "Chloe and Clark".

As far as Clark being more of the focus - I agree. But the reason I'm not freaking out about it is because this is only episode #3 and there are 19 left to go!!! He was definitely the hero in Zod, and Sneeze/Wither were just filler episodes anyway, so I don't worry about that. Clark has a major role in the formation of the Justice League, battling the PZ prisoners, restoring the Fortress of Solitude, etc. And with 19 episodes left, it seems very premature to complain that he isn't being focused on enough.

And yet again we have the accusation that Chlark fans problems with Lois somehow translate into a hatred of ED. Well, hell, if that’s what it takes for some fans to feel better about themselves when they post such unfounded accusations and unabashed hatred for other fans since they have nothing else to say, so be it.

I don’t believe anyone has used “Delusional” yet in reference to Chlark fans today. I do know somewhere below – I think in the ED post about BE2 – there are more “ignorant” posts as it is when certain fans refuse to see the difference between people’s problems with the character and not the actress. I guess it’s just easier to throw out insults that way.

IMO, a Superman so perfect and infallible that he has no need for human help (for that is exactly what Chloe does – she helps him, she works with him and she calls him on a lot of his nonsense when she sees the need) is a waste of our time and completely at odds with a character like Clark who has time and time again wished he was human. Clark values humanity and sees Chloe as one of the best examples of it (cue Super!Chloe shouts). Chloe’s been a journalist for five seasons now and I am sincerely thankful for the consistency and development of her skills accordingly. I have no interest in seeing her finding her calling through a flying barn door (or for that matter Clark getting hit by a flying-door-of-a -clue each episode when Chloe isn’t around) or jumping from being an artist to running the Talon or whatever else Lana is into these days. And a good point was made earlier – the need for Clark being more shouldn’t translate into a need for Chloe being less because that just means the show is so far off their thinking about Superman, it’s ridiculous. And IMO he is showing more of his heroic side. Who knows, maybe the GA will finally be good for something in Arrow next when it comes to the final nudge for Clark to "be the hero".

If Lana can’t be seeing as having made the decision to have sex with Lex on her own, wow, she’s reached a new level of silliness then. I’m thrilled that Lana is being shown as for once, having made a possibly bad decision. Stop the presses, she’s fallible.

ok, so we generally agree that Clark should definitely had some more of a presence in Wither, and that the writers should make him a bit more "capable" in terms of saving himself...

but what is so wrong with this alleged "Super Chloe"?
Hey, if our man is going to be super, then he needs a super woman by his side...not a damsel in distress who always needs someone to save her...

how in the name of heaven can Superman concentrate on saving the world if he always has to concentrate on saving his woman????..just as Superman needs to be self-sufficient, so does his female counterpart-present and future.

So whether it will be Lois or Clois as his future counterpart who has to be capable, the fact is that NOW, in his PRESENT he still needs a capable woman by his side...that's what Chloe does. I guess Lois does it in the future...and would we all have this same problem and be shouting and complaining SuperLois if she did this now?...i wonder...

Chloe has never been the damsel in distress type, nor the Cinderella type as she mentioned in season 1, and SV Lois is not the damsel in distress type either....as I am sure we will see from next week's episode...so why all the upset?

I say go superchloe and go superlois!...and writers, can we have some superclark too please???

Not a great episode. What saved it for me was Lois and the Lois/Oliver scenes. (Lois is Lois is Lois).

Lexana was just weird for me ... I had to cover my face with a pillow.

Poork Clarkie. Alone again.

Quite a boring episode, except for the one, Clark and Lex scene, which was AWESOME, and all the Green Arrow scenes. The rest was LAME with a Capital L. Buck up Smallville. Show Clark be the hero we know he can be. Show us Clark waking up to the hottie that is his future wife, Lois Lane. And show Lex Luthor be the bada$$ he was in this episode.

Next week's Arrow looks fantastic btw. Clark and Green Arrow facing off? Lois in the middle of it all? Hells yeah!

Chloe's advice was terrible, especially for a friend that knew better! Lana still made the decision! Come on, Chloe and Lana fans, just admit it!

Stop putting so much focus on Chloe!

Lois and Clark are the main characters in this story, please treat them as the way they deserve! Make Lois and Clark the reporter team and bring them together please!!!!

I am not a shipper of any type. But come on Chloe fans. Just be truthful, Chloe's advice to Lana was terrible. And Lana fan, just admit it still was not Chloe's fault.

I am a Lois fan. I do think Chloe's advice was terrible. It was not the advice of a friend that knows about Lex. It was out of character for Chloe. Of course the writers do not make sense a lot of the time on SV. One show Lana hates Lex and a few shows later she sleeps with him!

We all are not Clana fan that speak on her. I do think Chloe's advice was terrible and I do not Like Super Chloe. It's bad when the hero needs saving on every show. In terms of her advice, would you let your friend make the worst mistake of her life if you could make a difference. Chloe knew about Lex, Lana doesn't. It is not Chloe fault but she could have given much better advice. The advice was much out of character for Chloe!

Hello all,

I am a fan since 'Pilot' aired; since then I have never been a fan of any particular 'ship' or 'romance' on the show, so take my comments as that of just a simple Smallville fan who loves this show:

In second season, the stories were too much centered around Lana and krpytonite infected freaks who had something or the other to do with her, so Smallville lost many fans because of this.

Fifth season was the most balanced one; I have so many favorites Arrival, Hidden, Reckoning, Fragile, Mercy, Oracle and Vessel, all very good episodes, so I was expecting too much from seasons six; honestly I am a bit dissapointed because now Chloe has taken Lana's place, she has 'too much' to do and Clark has 'too little' to do, what I am trying to say here is Smallville will once again loose many of its fans because no matter what you say Tom Welling is still the main reason for people to watch this show, if you make his character weak... result: you loose fans!

Those who have recently watched season five have high hopes for this season but so far, Zod was the only good episode for me. I am not interested in watching which girl gets Clark in the end... I want to see where you take TW's character and if he is not going to see any developments this season, I am not sure I want to watch!

I can't believe Chloe's advice to Lana. That was pretty low. Chloe knows about Lex. She even knew about Lex causing Lana's death in the day that never happen. Some friend Chloe was!

It seems like Chloe fans are so blinded by their Erica hate that they have lost interest and perspective on all other things on the show. Like the guy named Clark Kent who somewhere around the beginning of Smallville was shown as the hero? Remember anyone?

Seriously, even if I were a die hard Chloe fan I wouldn't come up with "Super Chloe was great" because this show is not about Super Chloe at all! It is about Super Clark and if there is no Super Clark then there is no point of Smallville.

And at this very point, it is not about whether he should be with Lois Lane or with your version of Lois a.k.a. Chloe! For God's sake, Smallville is not the journey of Chloe becoming a legend or finally finding a place in Clark's heart! Smallville is about Superman!!

Even the writers seem to have forgotten that!! What a few hundred screaming Chloe fans on one or two websites have made you forget some 5 million viewers who have grown up seeing Superman as their hero!!! Will they buy your Super Chloe???

Wouldn't Whither have been better if Clark found out the solution? After all, Gloria was a Phantom Zone prisoner, so it was his battle to fight?? When he was tied up in the woods, I wished he would have freed himself and saved Jimmy as well, instead of well, Super Chloe to the rescue!!

This is NOT A hate post. I have nothing against Allison. She is a great actor. But the writers need to stop weaving plots around her and start writing Clark focused storylines.

And if not, then be honest with the fans and stop calling it a Superman show. Call it a Chloe show!!!

Increasingly heroic Clark!!! It is a joke right? Yeah, if flirting with a park ranger out of nowhere is 'heroic' then Clark Kent is the greatest hero of all time!

Chloe finds out the electricity solution, Chloe talks to professor, Chloe saves Clark coming running out of nowhere in the woods, Chloe saves Jimmy. What does the 'increasingly heroic' Clark do?

I think you should have asked "Do you like the increasingly heroic Chloe with the increasingly dumb looking Clark acting like a wuss in front of Jimmy Olsen?"

Then the Superman fans would say: No thankyou, we don't buy this version of Superman. We'll go see the old Christopher Reeve movies, or Superman Returns or Lois and Clark the New adventures of Superman. You know why? Because they all have a hero called Clark Kent not Chloe!!

I really hate all this character bashing.
a lot of the things people say badly about a character (ie super chloe) are really things that should be more directed at the writer.
Chloe is my favorite character but I don't spend all my time bashing lois.
And I do agree Clark should be on more but does that REALLY mean that Chloe has to be in it less?
I mean they could always just leave chloe the way she is and add in more clark and lex parts.
I guess I understand also how you don't want chloe doing everything.
however I do not think it is correct to say the show is all about her.
Lets think back:
tomb, truth, delete, crush, and sort of spirit and jinx.
those are the biggest chloe heavy episodes.
A lot of episodes revolve around lana and lex and whether you agree or not, all episodes have somthing to do with clark, whether or not he is present at the time.

of course in the same respect lois hasn't had to many just her episodes... which may be due to the fact they were intergrating her slowly as to not upset comic fans who didn't want her on the show yet.

anyways, I love this show. yeah the fight was a bit anti-clamactic but the character chemistry all around was good. I reall believed the Chlark, Chimmy, Lollie, and lexana.

Lex and Lana has got to end.

Okay we can't know 24/7 of the characters' life. How would you know that about Lana and Chloe for sure? If Chloe was a true friend, she wouldn't have gave her advice like that knowing the person Lex is.

From the earlier ED post: Style file factoid: Erica originally auditioned with darker hair, but the producers wanted a different look for their Lois.

From this post: The comic book Green Arrow isn't so into Lois Lane though - at least, not if our Lois doesn't dye her hair blond, change her name to Dinah, develop a sonic scream and start wearing fishnets

Her hair is actually already lighter than what it was as this blog pointed out in earlier posts, and as ED has said in interviews. So the EDDinah option is looking better and better everyday. Clark needs Chlois, not this underwhelming version of Lois Lane. Chloe and Clark are always a joy to watch and made the lame Posion-Ivy wannabe ep worth it.

And since when did Lana become so incapable of making her own decisions? You know, I also think Chloe might want to help save her cousin next week. Shall we prepare for more Super!Chloe bashing if she does? Or Lame!Chloe if she doesn't do enough? She even *wow* investigate. Damn, that's super!

Super Chloe is great! Good to see Chloe is breaking the old mould of damsel in distress. Good to see Clark is not invincible and that even he needs help from time to time.

I loved Wither.

I liked Lois/Oliver. Erica Durance has better chemistry with Justin than with Tom IMO.

I enjoyed Lana and Lex even if they aren't my favorites on the show. Their scenes and the progression in their relationship made sense to me.

I really love the whole Clark/Chloe/Jimmy angle of the show this season. Jimmy was cute and I really enjoy seeing Clark slightly uncomfortable when Jimmy's around. About time you open your eyes to what a great thing you could have had Clark?

I don't know why all the hate in this blog from haters...I don't mind one bit when Chloe saves the day. I actually enjoy it a lot. Go Chloe!

And to answer the question above? That'd be so great if Chloe became the real Lois and Lois became the real Black Canary...but I digress too.

Wow lots of action here..

To me, the reason why people are blaming chloe for the sex thing between Lana and Lex, It's simply because they need something to yell at... cause of course they are no reasons why their little miss perfect Lana Lang can do something like that !

Look, Chloe havent choose for Lana, she made up this chose all by her self..so Clana fans back off a bit...She cant take the blame for the writters choice !!!

Ps:(I have nothing against Lana, or Clana Fans... Im just trying to make chloe justice here)

I loved Wither. Not for the whole plant story but for the sub plots. Clark and Chloe in basically every scene together was the highlight for me. Loved the Lex and Lana scenes, flashback to Lexmas! Loved Oliver and Lois, they have such good chemistry. I also LOVED the Clark jealousy with Jimmy! I hope the writers continue to write that in and we will eventually get Chlark before the season is over. It is their time!

Clark really deserved a better role than the one he was eventually dealt in ''Wither''. I agree with whoever it was that said he was almost like a non-entity. I'm sure it'll improve though, becauase we've gotten some great Clark moments in ''Zod'' and Wither''.

While Lois/Ollie were interesting, I'm more curious about Clark's reaction, and judging by next week's previews, and Al Gough's recent interview in TVGUIDE, things should pick up atleast somewhat on the Clark/Lois front. I'm really anticipating all Lois/Clark scenes from here on out. :)

Lexana unfortunately, seems to be here to stay and I'm ok with, if there is no pregnancy or baby storyline involved, ever.

This was a good episode for Lex though, overall.

Wow, you people crack me up. What, exactly, did Chloe do that you find so hard to believe???? Let's review, shall we?

[1] She asked her botony professor at MetU about some plants - THAT is where she got the information from (pay attention next time).

[2] She picked up a medical chart that had *CRITICAL* in capital letters at the top and said "wow, this guy's messed up." Is that so hard to conclude?

[3] She saw the plant kill itself, and just took a mental note. Is that genius??? No, that's just being observant.

[4] She turned the dial on the defibrillator from OFF to ON - OMG WOW, how does she do it??? she's such a tech wiz!

And I even heard a rumor that Chloe can walk and chew bubblegum at the same time! Hand to God!

But you know, Mark Waid, a very well known comic writer for Superman (the man behind Brithright) has said that Superman needs a Superwoman. So, to the bitter Chloe haters: by all means, please keep calling her "SuperChloe" - it only reaffirms the idea that she is, in fact, the one for Clark. Because if you think about it - if she were already named "Lois Lane" - nobody would be complaining about her saving the day.
**************************
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!!!!!

The problem is that usually the haters just want to ignore all the rational facts so they can continue to believe that they are justified in hating the character.

DETECTIVE CHOLE SULLIVAN ROCKS! Hopefully Clarkie realizes this before Chloe becomes the one that got away.

I'm going to have to agree with those who think that, at this point, Chloe has a bigger role in Smallville than Lois does. Hell, she embodies everything Lois Lane should.

If it were up to me, I would make Chloe somehow turn into the real Lois Lane. The way they have written the characters, Chloe is all Lois except in name. So it's not that far of a stretch.

I love the Chloe/Clark dynamic. Allison Mack and Tom Welling have more chemistry than Tom and Erica Durance that's for sure.

If they want us to believe Clark ends up with Lois Lane, showing him pining over chloe because Chloe's macking on the photographer is not really the hints they should be going for...but I love it this way!

"Chloe belongs in Smallville with Clark more than Lois does."
I agree.

Why so much Chloe bashing? It's terrible that she saved Clark and Jimmy's lives? She's suddenly "Super"? What is this? She did her investigating. Clark helped her. She figured out how to stop the plant. She had the guts to save her close friend, sort of bf, Jimmy.

LAY OFF

I would have liked to see more Clark than the tree thing. The main story was dull. The Chloe/Clark/Jimmy triangle is very interesting and kept the episode bareable. The Lois and Oliver relationship is hot.

Not happy about Lex and Lana having sex so quickly. And, NO, it is NOT Chloe's fault. She made it clear that she thinks Lex is not boyfriend material.
It's so easy for Clana fans to blame Chloe. She was being a good friend and basically leaving the decision up to Lana, telling her that she needs to decide and not ponder over it.

If you think Chloe is a crappy friend to Lana, then you've completely forgotten a few things. Time to think about it - Chloe's done a lot for Lana. She has apologized and made everything right between them if she accidently did something to hurt Lana. But, then there's Lana stealing the love of Chloe's life. And never saying anything about it to Chloe. Never having a long, reassuring talk with Chloe. Some friend.

I think the episode was strange because we went from a comedic episode, "Sneeze", to a very series one, "Wither".

I'm looking forward to Green Arrow and Chlark next week. CW, don't let me down.

Just some clarification on the whole Why did Chloe give Lana that advice?!

I personally think that Chloe was more or so saying how she feels and what she is going through with the whole I'm done waiting for Clark Kent to open his eyes, I'm going for it with Jimmy. Also, did we all forget when Chloe said that Lex wouldn't be her first choice or in fact he wouldn't even be on her list? Seriously, what is Chloe supposed to do. Hold a gun to Lana's head telling her she can't be with Lex? Nobody can control what other people do. It's their own right who they want to be with.

Zod and Wither beats out Sneeze in all aspects. Good job, Smallville.

I dont like Lexana as a 'ship at all either, but their sleeping together was an inevitability. Had to happen. So it did.

I loved all the Lois scenes. She was smart, witty and charming. Lois' chemistry with the Green Arrow was pretty cute, but I'm really looking forward to more Clark/Lois scenes! Cant wait!

I wish Clark wasn't so much the non-entity as he was in this episode. But Lex was great. Finally, with a backbone!

Wow, you people crack me up. What, exactly, did Chloe do that you find so hard to believe???? Let's review, shall we?

hey, I don't think it is right to blame Chloe for Lana having sex with Lex.

Lana is not stupid, and she can make her own decisions. She was talking to Chloe about her trust issue-allowing herself to trust and be happy with Lex.

I like the friendship that Lana and Chloe still have, and I liked their discussion. Chloe made it clear to Lana that she didn't think Lex was a good choice for her, but she still wanted her friend to be happy. All she wanted for Lana was that she begin to enjoy her life more, and not just watch everyone else be happy...she didn't tell her to sleep with Lex.

so whether we are happy or disgusted with Sexana, Ms. Lang made her own bed and she must lie in it..for better or worse

As far as I am concerned Smallville is done. I will never watch another episode.

Then go away and stop watching! Smallville doesn't need you. Other than Gilmore Girls, Smallville is the highest rated show on the new CW network. Lexana sex got the highest ratings so far, even better than the premiere.

So much for boycotts lol. Sorry, thanks for trying!

Lexana sex was gross! Each episode gets worse!

Why do we need all of the super heroes on Smallville. I thought Smallville was about Clark's journey!

I really hate Smallville right now! I wish I could quit watching!

I can't believe I wasted 5 years watching Smallville to see it the way it is now! I'm packing up my DVDs that I will never watch again! Smallville is over as far as I am concerned. I will not watch them destroy the Superman Legend any further.

Good Luck to you people that will still continue to watch. I hope you like anguish! I remember when I use to get a warm feeling after watching Smallville.

I don't understand why it's suddenly Chloe's fault that Lana slept with Lex. Isn't Lana capable of making such a decision on her own?

Lexans sex was gross and disgusting! The writers have destroyed the characters of Clark and Lana that they spent four years to build.

Smallville is over! I will not watch them destroy the Superman legend any further. Lana was tortured in the comics by Lex to find out about Superman. Martha was always a saint and would would never have any thing to do with a Luthor.

Smallville should have ended at the end of Season 4 or the middle of season 5. It is not Smallville now. The show has destroyed the characters of Clark, Lana, and Martha but have made nice guys of Lex and Lionel and a Super Chloe. I want to watch Clark not Lex and Chloe.

I have been a Superman fan forever. I do not like what Smallville has done to its main characters.

Lexana sex was gross! It looked so forced! I hate Smallville now! Each episode gets worse. The name of the show now should be:

Lexville
The Super Chloe hour
The Green Arrow

Take you pick! The show doesn't seem to be about Clark any more! He is barely on the show!

Sexana! GROSSSSS!!!! Chloe and Jimmy are cute but I hate Super Chloe! Clark needs to become a man and save the day!

Clark had only a few part on the show!

I hate super chloe! Why is she still on the show. Lois is already a reporter now. Let Clark save the day for a change. Clark was barely on the show. Lexana sex was disgusting!

Boy! Was Chloe a real friend to Lana! I can't believe that she was telling her to go be with Lex. That is what you call a real friend. Chloe knows everything that Lex has done! Of course Super Chloe always saves the day!

Lexana sex was disgusting. The Lana of the first 4 seasons of Smallville would have never been with Lex. He is too old for her.

What's with Chloe's advice to Lana. It wasn't but a few show ago that Chloe was threatening Lex that he better not hurt Lana and now Chloe is pushing them together. It was also a few shows ago that Lana hated Lex.

As far as I am concerned Smallville is done. I will never watch another episode.

I have always been a Superman fan and I hate watching Smallville destroy the Characters of Clark, Lana, and Martha. I also hate how Smallville lets Lex win over Clark every week.

I really hate how something happens on the show this week and next week it is like it never happened.

Why did Chloe give Lana that type of advice. She knows what Lex has done! Was she trying to keep Lana away from Clark? Is Chloe going evil too?

"I'm never going to like Lexana, but the one thing that really killed me was that obvious body double for Kristin Kreuk. Dude, why not just let KK wear a bra or a camisole instead of bringing in someone else? It also frustrates me that they use these voluptuous body doubles. It's just ridiculous"

***********************
So true So true turtlegirl! Let the girl wear some underwear please! So i guess we can assume that Ms. Lang went "commando" all throuought the ball....I know Smallville wants to be sexy, but don't mistake sexy with skanky....

As for the writers of Smallville...a bit of advice from a fan....

Many viewers are of the opinion that the action in this episode was dull...to put it best...Gloria as this week's villain???...laughable...

and many believe that their favorite characters are being degraded and messed up by your writing, in one way or another.....and these claims are all correct.

Smallville is at a high right now. There was alot of anticipation for it over the summer,especially after such a jaw dropping season 5 finale. And if I can be a bit forward, this 6th season can be the best yet if done right...

that means: don't get lazy with your writing-don't turn the show into a soap opera with ridiculous plotlines, don't screw up the characters with stupid scenes...show development for everyone, and put some more work into action scenes and how Clark resolves his weekly issues. The alleged "fight scene" with Gloria was sad. Remember, Smallville isn't only about relationships, but it is also an action series about Clark Kent-take out the action and you're left with a soap.

With the show being at the top of it's game, there is a risk for complacency when success is enjoyed. But complacency in plot writing is the sure way to kill a show.

Why does Lex always get the better of Clark.

I think you answered that question yourself with

Clark needs to grow up and be a man.

Lex is giving Lana everything that Clark wasn't capable of, and I for one love it!

Lex and Lana were perfect in Wither. As a fan, I couldn't not have an imagined for a better episode. I love the fact that they are talking, not only about the good but about the bad too. I love their mature relationship. Michael and Kristin are doing a fantastic job and putting their electrifying chemistry to good use.

I agree that the Sexana, as hot as it was, was very symbolic. Lex and Lana are seemingly complex and layers characters, and sometimes inaccessible. However, both can tear down the walls around their hearts, which have been aching to love and trust again. With that, I don't think that it is a rebound at all. I love that Lana was the one that took the initiative and Lex finally allowed himself to be happy...or rather "satisfied." :)

I could go either way: whether not Lex and Lana will become parents, I'll support it, just as long as they keeping writing Lex and Lana the way they have been writing them so far. I want to see more of this Lexana.

Chloe as Lois Lane Yipeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"How in the world would Lex and Lois not recognize the Clark is Superman when he never wears his glasses?"

**************************
This is exactly my thought!!!! I dont know how the writers are planning to explain THAT in the future....I know overall in the story line it is a bit silly that all Clark has to do is take off his glasses and put a curl in his hair to become Supes, and not a sole in the world recognizes him...

but as far as Smallville is concerned, they boy never wears glasses, and Lex and Lois have known him for years without glasses...how do they explain that?

maybe by the end of this show, everybody is going to suffer from a mass case of amnesia so Lex and Lois won't remember their time in Smallville and how often Clark saved their lives...riiiiight!

Okay-ish episode. Enjoyed some bits a lot. Lois was good, her scenes with Ollie were sweet too, though I missed any Clark/Lois interaction. Lex was fantastic! More of this Lex! Wish I could say the same for Clark in this episode too, but he was just...sort of there. :( The Gloria character was lame. But overall, the ep wasnt so bad. And Martha, Lois and Lana all looked so beautiful at the ball!

Hah, Chloe officially turning into Lois and Lois turning in the Black Canary would be awesome!

Overall, I thought it was a good episode. A bit boring at times, but good nonetheless. I know Clark didn't do a whole lot, but since he's the main player in almost every episode, I don't mind him taking a bit of a backseat every now and again.

What I did mind, though, was that the Lois/Oliver and the Lex/Lana scenes felt really long. I get that they were playing up Clark's loneliness, but I couldn't help that think there's no point in focusing on these relationships if they don't directly involve Clark.

I'm never going to like Lexana, but the one thing that really killed me was that obvious body double for Kristin Kreuk. Dude, why not just let KK wear a bra or a camisole instead of bringing in someone else? It also frustrates me that they use these voluptuous body doubles. It's just ridiculous.

What makes the Clark/Chloe/Jimmy thing work (at least thus far) is that even though there's a bit of angst there, that's not the main point of their interactions. I hope they keep that dynamic (as well as the awesome Chlark) up, because it's really working for me.

Lexana is sexy and intriguing and I can't believe I just said that, by they are. Ollie is already overdone and tired. I'm just waiting for next weeks episode to be over and done with since I imagine he'll be everywhere between now and then. More than ever, he's just meh. The most interesting thing about Lois is the suggestion Claire threw out about her being the Black Canary. If she fits there, I sincerely hope it happens. Chloe belongs in Smallville with Clark more than Lois does.

Ok there were a few things that I enjoyed about the episode and some moments I would rather forget. First let's talk about the good things. The opening sequence was great. I even chuckled a bit. Like the Chloe and Jimmy interaction, especially when we throw Clark in the mix of it. I am enjoying the fact that it seems Clark is now where Chloe used to be. Perhaps he's falling for her when she's already into someone else. I just think it's great. The whole couch scene was fantastic. I would love to see Chloe/Clark happen before the series ends, but unfortunatley with our (Chlarkers) luck, we shouldn't really hold our breath. (It upsets me. Trust me.) Loved Lana's costume. I'm not a Lana fan at all, but I didn't mind her in this episode. It seems like she fits right in with Lex. More power to them. Kind of brings sleeping with the enemy to a wholenother level.

I like Lois. I do, but in this episode I didn't really see a point of her being there except to go to a dance with Ollie. ED is a terrific actress, but I just don't think the character fits in with Smallville at this point. It seems like they are trying to stick her somewhere in the storyline, but it just doesn't seem right to me, IMO. Park Ranger villian from the Phantom Zone? Terrible. Worst "baddie" ever.

Did I mention how much I liked the Clark/Chloe/Jimmy?

Lexana sex was sickening! Clark was not in but 3 or 4 scenes. Lex seems to be the main star now. Clark and Lana's characters are now destroyed! Smallville will be off the air be Christmas!

Lexana sex -- vomit. Was Clark even on the show! Let Clark be the hero and get rid of Chloe. She should be killed off of the show!

Clark needs to grow up and be a man. I'm tired of Super Chloe saving the show! Lexana was aweful and disgusting!

Lana and Lex was sickening! Lex is at least 10 years older than Lana. Why does Lex always get the better of Clark. Let Clark be the winner for a change. Clark needs to grow up and be a man. I'm tired of Super Chloe saving the day!

Please get better Lois and kill off Chloe too. Get some pretty girl beside just Lana. Chloe is too boyish and Lois is to old and fake looking.

Smallville is now about Chloe, Lois and Lex. Clark is barely on the show. Lana and Lex makes me want to vomit. Please just let the show die!

Is this show about Clark or Super Chloe! The show needs to be called the Super Chloe and Lex hour. Chloe seems to be Superman and Lex is the villain that gets everything even Clark's girl. Stupid Show, gets worse each episode.

Lois waste of airtime. So boring. I skipped her scenes. The rest was okay.

Lexana - yikes! I guess I'm a diehard comics fan and in the 1986 Byrne era, Lex had Lana kidnapped and tried to torture her to give up information on Clark....

I guess this is just another "parallel universe" though. Lana really needs a mother figure in her life, she makes really dumb decisions about her love life....

I like Chloe and Jimmy they are adorable together, and it's nice to see her with a boyfriend. AA is a very cute Jimmy Olsen, too!

Justin Hartley - very hot! ED and JH have some very visible chemistry. I'm hoping to see Clark get jealous really soon.

Clark needs to figure out his life - go back to college, start wearing glasses, think about how he's going to have his own secret identity. How in the world would Lex and Lois not recognize the Clark is Superman when he never wears his glasses?

I'm looking forward to the "Justice" episode. Too bad we can't have the Trinity - Supes, Bats, and WW - oh well!

I personally think the prospect of Chloe being the real Lois is so intriging. The show has basically set her up as such through the years, so EDLois just seems like a pale comparison. Actually the "Lois" on the show now seems nothing at all how she should be...

It would be interesting if Lois turns out to be someone else--Black Canary or whatever--as well. It would make sense that she could be some sort of butt kicking heroine given her penchant for kicking butt herself....It seems more plausible than her suddenly becoming everything Chloe is and better. Yeah I fully support Chlois!!

Aww, hey, I like Lois. Love her infact. And Erica Durance. I think she brings a lot to the show, like a lot of the other characters and actors. It's a good mix.

Anyways the episode was not too shabby. The Lois scenes were good, Olliver was very interesting and Lex was great too. Now if only we could've had some good Clark moments too. But there's always next week! :)

I like the Green Arrow, but the CW need to quit with building up the entire trailer around him. For the second week in a row!

The Park Ranger Girl was boring filler, but there was a lot of good character moments here. I really enjoyed the ball and the different costumes. Loved the Lexana. So sexy and hot. Clark and Chloe were very cute together, what with his obvious jealousy. And looking forward to seeing more of the Green Arrow and Lex's backstory. Just please don't force him down our throats so much.

Sexana was okay. I think they will have the baby like in Lexmas.

I don't see the point of having Lois on this show. She doesn't do anything to move the plot along and she's divorced from Clark's main story. It would best serve ED and her Lois to make her the Black Canary. She would make a good superhero. Chloe embodies the essential Lois Lane charateristics and would need the name to make it complete.

I hope Clark isn't sad for the rest of the season!!

The comic book Green Arrow isn't so into Lois Lane though - at least, not if our Lois doesn't dye her hair blond, change her name to Dinah, develop a sonic scream and start wearing fishnets. And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois and Lois became Black Canary? But we digress.

Let's all be thankful Smallville isn't the comic book then. I would love to see this happen onscreen. Lois would definately keep GA on his toes (g)

Can we for a second forget all this Chloe VS Lois war, and lament on how awful an episode this was for Clark! I'm so disappointed. I thought we were off to a great start in Zod and Sneeze. What went wrong here?! It's like, he wasn't even part of the story?! I'm really hoping this isn't a trend...

Lexana doesnt bother me too much I guess, as long as there isn't a baby involved.

Green Arrow was cool, and Lex was vastly improved in this ep too.

As for the Lois v. Chloe war, for the record, I like both characters, and both actresses do a commendable job playing their roles. Chloe is great in her own way, and Lois is fantastic in her own right.

[I'm surprised they already have Clark killing. Superman would never do such a thing - in fact, goes out of his way not to kill, even to the point of sacrificing his own life. But then, the characterization of Clark hasn't been very heroic in the last few seasons at all. It's sad that I sympathize with the man who will one day be the villain far more than the one who is supposed to be the hero.

Not always. He let a man get crushed between a boat and the dock. Lois was the one who said something and Superman just stood there and replied non chalantly he was a criminal.

Superman initially was very eye for an eye. Only later did he start to turn the other cheek.

Sexana....disgusting

Overall, I give this episode a B- however, Lexana/Sexana was HOT! Best part of the show for me.

But, I gotta say, Ollie/Green Arrow was a bit of a prick to Lex. However, the line about inflatable girls was hilarious. Also, the Park Ranger Girl from the Phathom Zone, was boring. It was complete waste. I'm praying the other Phathom Zoners aren't as boring. Sidenote, Jimmy Olsen was adorable, but Clark was completely depressing in this episode. The end scene with him playing alone in the barn with his ball(s) ::snicker:: was little on the pitiful side.

Sexana was horrible, it's gonna be the end of the show. Especially if they have a damn Lexana baby. Th epoint of Lexmas was to show Lex what he COULDN'T have by choosing the dark path. Not to have him chose that path and still get everything! Lexana isn't based on love, it's based on vulnerable rebounding Lana and Lex who has some sick obsession with getting everything Clark has/had! Fine u want to ruin iconic characters and and show that used to be good? Go ahead, but in the end there won't be too many ppl left that give enough of a damn to watch.

Not a bad episode! I'm pleasantly surprised. :) I really wish Clark had more of a role to play and wasn't quite as, and I hare to use the word, but redundant. I loved the Clark we saw in 'Zod' and 'Sneeze'. More of that please!

Lex was terrific as well, kinda menacing. Cool. Lexana was ugh, but whatever, had to happen I guess.

I loved Lois as always. I loved how smart and funny she was with Olliver, and being quite the lady with him there at the end. Aw, Lois. lol.

Next week's preview looked amazing - ''Clark Kent and Green Arrow meet, with Lois caught in the middle''. Perfect. :)

Is Smallville for real? This show is going to fall if there are episodes like this written.

Sexana? Can anyone say disgusting?!!!

Got to love the way you think, It looks like the Chlois is spreading because EDLois sure isn’t Iconic Lois for 40% of the online fandom. Though I doubt EDLois will be the Black Canary; Cat Grant, maybe but my money is on pushing up daisies after making the statement: You know what I would love to see, Lois Lane in a front page DP byline. That would be the highlight of my life.

As for the rest:
Got to love Clark, who doesn’t, though wish he saved him self, maybe have Chloe throw him the taser instead like a squire throws the knight a sword. Lexana was okay, a bit overplayed for the sensationalism but plot wise fitting. I’d say that since Alex was 6 in Lexmas that his conception would have to happen this year and therefore the pregnancy is Lexana, I mean a Lollie baby would be too radical a plot change and I doubt the CW or TPTB would even venture into the Chimmy territory since that would mean treading on the abortion issue and Mionel hasn’t progressed plot wise enough to believe they have been having sex.

"what was that half smile/smirk on Clark's face?? I couldn't decipher it.....

Was it more of a "Yeah, right! No way in hell is she 'your girl'" smirk...."

I took it as "Yeah, right" for two reasons. 1) The timing: they show Clark's reaction after Jimmy responds as if he had just been rejected by Chloe. 2) After Jimmy leaves, Clark asks Chloe if he's always like that. And the expression on his face as he listens to her response is again that jealous look that we've seen a few times now.

I think by talking smack, some Lois fans meant firstly, how dismissive and discouraging Chloe was to Lois in 'Sneeze'. Protecting the secret is one thing, but she was, I have to admit downright sarcastic and smug. And in 'Wither', behind Lois' back, who is letting Chloe stay at her place, she doesn't speak too favourably of Lois to Clark.

These are just honest observations from an objective bystander who doesn't much care for either Chloe or Lois.

But I have to hand it to Claire. . . always managing to make the two Chloe and Lois camps b*tch it out amongst themselves quite furiously. I don't understand how it does either side any good. Lois fans are constantly drumming down out throats how much they love her character but not convincing Chloe fans at all, whereas Chloe fans scream from the rooftops to anyone who'll listen that Chloe should be Lois. I'd have to give the edge to Lois fans though, because judging by just how much some people actually believe and/or want Chloe turning into Lois to happen, I wouldn't want to be them when it obviously wont happen. Aaaand I've probably gone and p*ssed both Lois and Chloe fans off now with my disparaging remarks. Insert eyeroll, please.

The episode itself was just ok. The Green Arrow was awesome though. And so was the Clark/Lex scene.

I thought the stuff with the ranger was a little rushed, but all of the couples were adorable! Chloe and Jimmy have a fantastic, fun spark that just makes me smile thinking about them. Lois and Oliver have a tempestuous attraction. But the real gem of the hour was Lex and Lana. After six years of waiting, of hoping, of praying that they might be a couple, never in my wildest dreams did I imagine what a beautiful, romantic scene theirs would be. Thank you, Powers That Be, for taking the show in this direction! I am astounded with how good season six is proving to be -- just three weeks into the year! It's going to be an amazing season!

The Lexana totally owned the episode! It was hot!

Oh this was good :D Actually it was better than I expected after all the spoilers. I loved the fact that Clark looks so.. unconfortable with the idea of Chloe being with someone else!!! I mean really it took him long enough to really recognize the fact that he's not that "friendly" feeling about her anymore.
Also they work really well as a team :).
Jimmy.. well I can't help it, he's not my type and I don't really like him, nothing to do with the character I like.
The Lexana.. well it was good I guess, at least it was well developed and I understand where the 2 of them are coming and their ideas about each other, I just hope Lana can truly help Lex to be.. less dark.
I truly liked Lois and Oliver together, they.. fit, so I agree with Claire that she should became Black canary.. I mean she's already blond ;)
I truly liked how Martha looked :), so mature and great looking.
And I didn't liked the "villian" of the week, even if she's kryptonian, can we say gross together??.
As it is I kind of like how this is going, the Chlark is going strong, even if it's not shown in the way I'll like to see it and I enjoyed Lois and Oliver together, a match made in heaven :D, or in the archery place :D, be well and take care.

Chloe as the real Lois Lane? Sign me up!

Love the idea of Chloe as Lois. Love for Erica's character to be Dinah - her in fishnets? Pretty sweet. Loved the Lexana. Loved jeanlous!angsty!Clark. Even loved Oliver the ass, just a little bit.

Hate the fans continually trying to start wars with other fans; It's not Chloe fans lumping EDers and calling *them* names, it's not Chlois fans confused between critsim of a *character* and of an *actor.* And really hate the idea that if someone gives an opinion that doesn't match up with DI or in other cases Sweet, then it's OK to bad mouth them.

Seriously ridiculous behavior from some in this group just because people have, and share, alternative opinions.

I'll take more over less and natural over artificial anyday. I like that; can't fix stupid. Lois Lane ahs always been a girl who would try to do whatever it takes to get the job done, the word out and help Clark save the day while she's at it. Chloe isn't too good; she's just right as the real Lois Lane should be. And if she is revealed as the real Lois it's not morphing into wnything. It meanes that this Lois just started out with a different name. It isn't dissing Chloe or saying her character isn't good enough. It's saying she's really good and has what it takes to be the real Lois. Because ED's character just doesn't.

Question for any one to comment on/answer...no matter the ship etc...just want a different viewpoint....

So, in Wither, in the hospital room scene with Jimmy, Clark and Chloe, when Jimmy asked Chloe whether she was "his girl" with a bit of uncertainty in his voice.....

what was that half smile/smirk on Clark's face?? I couldn't decipher it.....

Was it a "Hmmm, this is a cute argument to witness" half-smile... OR

Was it more of a "Yeah, right! No way in hell is she 'your girl'" smirk....

i know i'm fueling the fire..but as much as I am for Chlark...the sheer act of it actually being a possibility might have me a bit biased and my head a little giddy...LOL...

feel free to respond..yes, no..who cares....either way is cool...

This episode was better than the Zod and Sneeze I think.

1) Lex was awesome, as always. The scene between him and Clark was amazing with the plants having hidden agendas LOL Clarkie made a joke!

2) I'm not much of a Lana fan, but when she's with Lex I actually *think* I might have liked her. I'm not sure yet, but she was way more interesting. Woo Sexana and incoming bambino!

3) Martha was adorable!

4) Chlimmy was okay for now, but I LOVED the jealous Clark! I don't think Chlimmy will last though. He wants to be the machoman but there's no way he can, she's too Lois Laney.

5) Clark at the end was heartwrenching! I wanted to give him a hug or an ice cream cake or something. Poor Clark!

6) Lois as always was just... meh. Oliver was cool though!

Please keep bringing on the Chlarkimmy love triangle, Lexana rocked so I'd love to see more of that, and poor Clarkie! Give him some cake :)

I love this episode! I think Michael and Kristin did an amazing job in the Lexana scenes. They have a very, nice, unspoken chemistry. I love them!

I love Green Arrow!

Clark is jealous of Jimmy, and it's absolutely wonderful to watch. I hope that we'll get Chlark later this season- this relationship has been building for years, and it would be wonderful to finally see them as a couple on-screen!!!

(Jimmy and Chloe as parents? Please NO.)

I really, really love Lex and Lana together. They click as a couple in a way that they do with no one else. ;)

"first dismissing her outright and discouraging her in 'Sneeze' and now talking smack about her behind her back, and in her home! Unbelievable."

So you think she should have encouraged Lois to look into something that could expose her best friend's secret? Are you kidding me? And "talking smack" behind her back? That's funny, I don't see ANYONE mentioning Clark in this regard, with his: "stay away from the mouth, which is difficult because Lois uses hers so much".... Hmmm, so how come no one's jumping all over Clark too? Never mind, rhetorical question.

"It is now becoming absolutely funny how Allison fans try to shove her down our throats as some 'competition' for Erica Durance's Lois."

Fans have been calling Chloe "iconic Lois Lane" long before bimbo!Lois ever even showed up.

You know, it's funny when you take a step back and look at the complaints surrounding each character. No character is perfect, but these are the complaints that you hear about Chloe:

* "She's too smart, a know-it-all"
* "Oh great, SuperChloe saves the day"

And the complaints you hear about EDLois?

* "Lois is an annoying bimbo"
* "She's uneducated an unmotivaed"
* "Lois is a mooch, and never worked for anything herself"

Now I don't know about you, but I'll take too smart over too stupid any day of the week, because as Ron White says: "you can't fix stupid". And if Chloe is "Super Chloe," then I guess that just means she needs a SuperMan. And we all know who that is. ****

Killing the murderous plant lady wasn't high on my list of bad. But I agree that as has too often been the case, the writers forget this is about Clark more than anything else. Dragging in Ollie and pimping him not to mention it's wrong for Clark not to be the guy to figure out the tights thing and secret identity and a league of heroes. Clark should be the one to come up with this stuff. I tune in to see Clark more than anything and not guest stars. Last season there were several eps in which Tom Welling was almost nonextistent and that's not right. Except in Cyborg where he became seriously ill but otherwise it should be Clark more than anyone else.

Does anyone know the name of the song playing at the end of Smallville and who sings it?

It made the Ollie/Lois, Lex/Lana and Lonely Clark scenes really beautiful...

thanks!

Meh, alright episode. I dont want to get sucked into this fan/character hostlility. All I will say is both Chloe and Lois fans I feel for if they think either character is well developed.

Chloe? Ms I-never-go-to-college-and-am-a-regular-jack-of-all-trades-spouting-platitudes-left-right-and-centre-who-has-no-other-role-on-the-show-but-exposition-and-plot-contrivamce. Phew. Looks like much ado about nothing, eh? Well, that pretty much sums up Chloe.

And Lois? Ms-all-i've-got-are-these-looks-and-hand-me-out-jobs. Whatever.

The shows never going to morph Chloe into Lois, my opinion is that you're (general you) setting yourself up for a mammoth dissappointment if you truly believe so. But so what? IMO neither character really fits the bill either way, they're both shams.

Why do I watch this show? Sadly I'm still hooked onto the Luthors and Olliver Queen has perked my interest somewhat.

I LOVE Lexana, they totally owned this episode. They looked so happy and completely in love at the ball. They looked like king and queen by each others side. And of course, who can forget the Sexana scene?!

I love that Lana is the one who initiates it, and begins to take off his cape. Don't give me any of that "Lex forced her into it" bull. Lana is the one who initiated this, this is what she wants. She is taking Chloe's words of advice, she is growing her fins and diving in. The fact that Lana is the one who started it, she called the shots, made this all the better. Not only was it hot as heck, but it was a very symbollic scene. Lana takes of Lex's cape, his chest plate, she is stripping his guard. This is Lex letting his guard down, and letting himself just love. Lex in turn takes off Lana's white dress. This was Lana shedding her skin, and here comes the Lana that trusts herself, trusts Lex. This was Lex and Lana, accepting themselves and each other, no guards up, not hiding anything. This was just Lex and Lana...

So get over it. Clark and Lana are OVER. Forever.

Add My name to those that want Chloe Sullivan take on Lois Lane as a pen-name (let's face facts, Chloe is Iconical LL in every single other aspect!)....
And if Lois Lane needs to Black Canary for it to occur, sorry Diana Lance, but Clark NEEDS his Chloe!

Icon

I thought this was the best episode of the season so far!! Lex and Lana are positively perfect together - it's great to finally see a realistic and mature relationship on this show. The last scene between them was beautifully and tastefully done. Kristin and Michael really do have a fantastic chemistry. I'm sure the baby will be their's - and I can't wait!

I'm surprised they already have Clark killing. Superman would never do such a thing - in fact, goes out of his way not to kill, even to the point of sacrificing his own life. But then, the characterization of Clark hasn't been very heroic in the last few seasons at all. It's sad that I sympathize with the man who will one day be the villain far more than the one who is supposed to be the hero.

Chloe and Jimmy are adorable together, and Oliver actually succeeded in making Lois tolerable for an entire episode, which is quite a feat! He can definitely stay, as he is really a fun character.

"And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois and Lois became Black Canary?"

Odd that you mention this, as I've actually been saying this for a while now. I think Erica Durance's Lois would make an awesome Black Canary. And of course, I think Chloe would make a great Lois:-).

Overall, this was a pretty good episode. The Clark/Chloe/Jimmy triangle was amusing-- the look on Clark's face when he figured out they'd gone to Makeout Point together was priceless. But hopefully Jimmy won't stand in the way of romantic Chlark for too long!

One thing I'd like to see is less emphasis on Green Arrow and more on Clark. This show is about Clark's development as Superman, and the writers need to bear that in mind.

Wow! How is it that Chloe "is talking smack" regards to Lois? Because Lois thought her awful article was fit to be printed in the Daily Planet last week? That was laughable and Chloe was right to scoff.

Chloe is everything Lois has always been and for those who are obviously unfamiliar with why Clark loves Lois, it isn't her looks though she is beautiful as Chloe certainly is, it's because of her passion for the truth and helping others.

Chloe behaved as the real Lois would, saving Superman if she has to just as he saves her so often. Lois Lane is heroic even though she's only human. And no, the girl who's called Lois is not endearing in the least. Chloe is definitely the real deal here and the more the better!

There are many long time Superman and Lois fans who can't stand Lois and love Chloe instead because she is so Loisy. Lois Lane's appearance changes but her inner core remains the same and Chloe owns that all the way.

Didn't care for Ollie except at the very end when we saw he'd hit the pop top ring and let Lois go thinking otherwise. Now that was cool.

Lexana was just awful but then that's nothing new.

All in all, an average episode although it's cute and overdue to see Clark moping over Chloe with another guy. We need more of that.

This was actaully a pretty good episode. I'm not seeing the purpose of Oliver and still not seeing it for Lois, but then again I don't understand a lot of things about this show.

Sexana... eh. Not my thing.

The Chlark was once again awesome! I love, love seeing Chlark jealous of Chloe. The Clark/Chloe/Jimmy scene in the hospital room looked sooo much like all the other Superman versions of Clark/Lois/Jimmy. I also love that Chloe's clothes almost always match Clark's. Just make her the iconic Lois Lane already! :)

I loved Lois in this episode, she's becoming my favorite character on the show. An I also liked the Lois/Olliver interaction. They are really cute.

PS...love the poll!..LOL too funny..

I am glad that you added a bit of humor to this post Claire..things are getting a bit heated...and we all just need a laugh...because honestly....despite everyone's ships and opposing views....the only wrong people in this are the writers who keep messing up ALL OUR SMALLVILLE CHARACTERS and all the story lines...

HAAA...I say we all unite and rally against them!..LOL!

anyways Claire..my favorite:
Forget Lionel! What about Pete?! We miss Pete!"

you know, I love Chloe...I am one of her fans...but we don't want an "overdose of Chloe"....

we are glad that the writers are beginning to see her value...she is resourceful etc...but let's not forget who is the show is about....

not Green Arrow, not Chloe, not Lionel,Lois, Lex, Lana or Martha...but the journey of Clark Kent...

we're glad that she is being recognized, but dont overdo it, and cause even Chloe fans to become annoyed about her saving Clark too much...let the man do some work himself...

and if this is your way of trying to make us dislike the character so that you can easily kill her off or something...then DONT! Refrain from that path....make her help him, yes..make her support him, yes, but don't make the boy look like an imbecile, incapable of doing anything himself...it makes two very likeable characters (Clark and Chloe) look ridiculous....

the acting chemistry between then is good..play off on it...but don't overdo it....

Wow! Chloe fans telling others about 'not being hostile' when you are the ones who have raided CW - Star of the Week - Erica Durance discussion with your senseless and pathetic hate posts. Did you refrain from putting your "Chloe is Lois" theory there? No. Even when it is a thread to discuss Erica not Allison. You know, you should try and take your own advice sometimes.

That's the whole problem right there. You cannot see the difference between attacking the writing on a show, and attacking other posters and starting ship wars.

There is nothing wrong with commenting on the show. The Erica Durance wasn't raided at all. They asked for opinions on the show and Clois. It was the Clois and Erica fans who were insulting everyone that disagred with them

We have tried to stick to discussing the show, and that's in the face of some extreme provocation. I know that you won't take my word for it, but I have heard Clois fans say they are embarrassed by the 14 and 15 year old idiots who post here, and they hope it's not taken as representing Clois fans. You guys are doing yourself no favors here

Talk about Super Chloe all you like (I totally called that it would go back to that when people were saying that the real Lois Lane would have saved the day in Zod. I knew if she had of done, people would say Mary Sue). But it's fine to slam the characters, and no Chlark fan is saying you are not entitled to your opinions there. We're not going to stoop to the level of name-calling, I'll happily try and intelligently argue your points

Just please treat other people posting with some respect is all we ask

How could I have forgotten! It's a day ending in "y" so obviously it's time to for more accusations and derogatory comments from a select group of Lois Lane Fans! Dammit! I need to mark this down in my calendar! These posts are getting to be as regular as clockwork now!! Same time tomorrow, I take it? Let's see, it should be: Super!Chloe; Not Good Enough!Chloe; Not Good Looking Enough!Chloe and Unbearable!Chloe. This sort of reaction of ED fans who are unhappy with her character and don't know what else to do about it but start in on Chloe fans for expressing their opinion according to the blog questions....isn't surprising in the least anymore. What else is left to do but attack the views of other fans, after all Lois is Lois cause she's Lois, right? The little things like education and selling out her "calling" shouldn't matter, right? Nope, not when there's Super!Chloe to berate with as much gusto as they can manage. I'm sure another level of viciousness can be reached if these types of fans try hard enough. After all tomorrow is another day ending in "y".

Meantime, Chloe and Clark did their investiagting together with Jimmy Olsen along for the ride! And jealous!Clark with cute Jimmy! Hehe.

It was a terrible episode! Just let the show die!

Please just kill the show and let it die in peace. It can't possible get any worse.

Smallville has turned into:

Super Chloe
Lex the good guy with the girl
Lois the old, fake looking can't act, ready to do you if you can shoot an arrow, reporter.
Clark the weak idiot who seems lost and doesn't care.
Lana whose character is willing to sleep with a guy who taped her and who she hated a few shows ago.

Clark and Lana don't resemble their former characters.

Can Smallville get any worse. I don't see how!

I really dislike Super Chloe on the show and the "good guy" Lex! Was Clark even on the show.

"This hostility is totally un-called for. Talking about fictional characters is fine. But stop attacking other fans. It makes you look like such an unpleasant group. A lot of people have started to notice how hostile and mean you guys are on the CW (not just Chlarkers either), and you are only making yourselves look bad"

Wow! Chloe fans telling others about 'not being hostile' when you are the ones who have raided CW - Star of the Week - Erica Durance discussion with your senseless and pathetic hate posts. Did you refrain from putting your "Chloe is Lois" theory there? No. Even when it is a thread to discuss Erica not Allison.

You know, you should try and take your own advice sometimes.

"Allison is a good actress but in no way as great looking to fit the personna of a beautiful and intellegent woman that stands by the world's greatest Superhero."

ok..let's not talk about whether an actress is "good looking" enough to be at Superman's side. Let us stay away from the person and stick to our analysis of characters...

and "looks" isn't the only thing that makes a woman worthy to stand by a man's side....so whether people belive that Chloe (not Allison) or Lois (not Erica) is the "real Lois Lane"...doesn't matter...i'm not promoting any ship here...

i'm saying that a person's "character" should make or break them....not her looks...

It is now becoming absolutely funny how Allison fans try to shove her down our throats as some 'competition' for Erica Durance's Lois.

Lois Lane is an icon who was born as Lois Lane and it is not just a name but the entire history and characterstics that come with it. No small town girl who happens to sit in Daily Planet basement can dare to call herself Lois Lane because her own name and character is so weak that she cannot go by it.

Allison is a good actress but in no way as great looking to fit the personna of a beautiful and intellegent woman that stands by the world's greatest Superhero.

Though I must admit, it is fun to debate with Chloe fans, they come up with the most hillarious arguments.

Clark: "How did you kill it?"

my response: Clark, I love you, but it's time for you to get back into school and be a bit proactive...

and I love Chloe, and how she helped her boys, but I still think Clark can help himself some..

Jimmy: "I'm slow"...haa haaa...won't even go there..lol

''It was okay. Nice twist with Gloria (saw it coming early on but I'm relieved that it wasn't another Krypto-Freak). Although, the way it was resolved was much too conveniant and lazy of the writers.

In addition to that, Chloe is fastly losing my interest; she's solving too many things at too little time with far too little effort making Clark look like the fool. It's not amusing.

And her jokes and derogatory comments (which is irritating) about Lois make me dislike her even more. She's talking about someone who never says a bad thing about her, who always has her back, who supports her no matter what and goes above and beyond just to help her and Lois still gets the shaft this season. And what's worse, it seemingly came out of nowhere.

One of the highlights of Smallville I believe is the relationship between Lois and Chloe, but now, even that seems to dwindle against the majestic light of Super Chloe Sullivan.

I suppose the only character that remains in-character tonight and doesn't think it's all about her is Lois. She and Oliver Queen have a nice chemistry that I'm thankful works far better than her brief stint with Arthur Curry. They kept it light with a side dose of serious, and look, she's still Martha's Chief of Staff.''

WORD. I've always been a Chloe fan but the way she's been acting with Lois lately, first dismissing her outright and discouraging her in 'Sneeze' and now talking smack about her behind her back, and in her home! Unbelievable.

Anyways, Lois, Lex and Green Arrow saved this episode. All three were spot on. Clark was reduced to a fiddle unfortunately.

But hey, Chlarkers have the right to make it up for some time. They are pining hopes for this for five years.

That's a *really* immature and bratty comment. Can we please stick to discussing the show, and stop trying to instigate shipping wars.

It's not fair to keep attacking other fans, and I would advise Chlarkers to not rise to the bait, but just concentrate on enjoying all the lovely Chlark that the show has seen fit to give us

Chloe is as unbearable as her fans now.

Her fans are rubbing off on her aren't they?

This hostility is totally un-called for. Talking about fictional characters is fine. But stop attacking other fans. It makes you look like such an unpleasant group. A lot of people have started to notice how hostile and mean you guys are on the CW (not just Chlarkers either), and you are only making yourselves look bad

I guess I was prematurely happy that this season we are going to see PZ escapees vs the FOTW. The PZ escapee plot was not worth watching and how did it improve Clark's character. It didn't it only made Clark look like a fool. He could have super sped away from park ranger or he could have tried his heat vision to stop her from hurting him.
SuperChloe is really annoying but good to know that her main purpose in Smallville is for plot advancements whenever Clark is in a fix or when he needs any information.
Lois and Oliver scenes rocked and they were the saving grace of this episode. The scene where Oliver shot the arrow at the can was really awesome.
I am not a fan of Lana but I don't like what is being done with the Lana character. Please show some respect to the canon characters.
Next week's trailer looks good. We atleast have a super hero who is doing the heoric stuff and who will teach SuperHero 101 class to Clark.

"Just claim your woman.. be a man and step up already!"

from Cee Cee

*********************
I couldn't agree more! Let Chloe be with Jimmy until Clark can be a MAN and admit to himself what he really wants!

Be a man Clark, claim your woman..if not, then watch her go...

Whither - 5/10. That too, for the nice Lois and Ollie scenes. Erica Durance looks stunning.

Tom Welling is gradually being sidelined in this new show starring Allison Mack as Superman. Do the producers really think Allison has so many fans out there, that they are turning every episode into a Chloe is our hero? Wow, few angry posts on official forum and you can make the writers do what you want. I am starting a Jimmy Olsen is the real Clark Kent campaign from next week.

Chloe is as unbearable as her fans now. After the comments that she made about Lois, she is not even tolerable to me anymore.

Oliver Queen was awesome this week and I am really looking forward for GA in the next week's episode.I am wondering if CW is actually looking for a GA spin off after watching this episode and next week's trailer.
I am not even sure why there was a PZ escapee plot. The episode would have been fine without it and even without Clark. The lame PZ plot was added to somehow include Clark in the episode which is pathetic considering this is a show about him. The showdown between Clark and Lex - we have already seen along the similar lines in Aqua so nothing new. Clark is mopey about being alone rather than searching if there are any other PZ escapees. Good going Clark.

Whither was not much of a remarkable episode story wise but some other developments are interesting to watch.

Lollie: Gotta love them. Erica and Justin have great chemistry. I can't wait to see how writers weave Clark into the "real" triangle of the show and finally stop humiliating and mocking him by constantly showing him as a third wheel in Chimmy relationship.

Chloe has simply began to irritate now. Her remarks about Lois and what she said to Lana. Her fans are rubbing off on her aren't they?

I guess the writers are deliberately making us hate her before writing her off or something. Don't do that. Chlo-Lo is the only thing I like about Chloe. And did I mention that her constantly saving the day theme is becoming boring to all fans now? Her attempts at being "snarky" are becoming way too much.

A show about Superman where Chloe (who?) saves the day and degrades Lois Lane behind her back. Way to go Smallville.

I think Erica Durance's Lois Lane might finally emerge as a winner from all this. She is silently and gradually carving her place in our hearts.

I am really putting my hopes high that coming weeks would not be as dissapointing. We will finally see Clark Kent the Superman.

I am not too happy with Micheal this season. I want the bad guy The really cruel bad guy. Turn him into that. Micheal is too good an actor to waste.

Did I mention that Kristin is getting more beautiful in each episode. Her Cleopatra make-up wasn't the greatest though but overall she is looking very nice.

Chloe fans do realize that in the same piece where ''wouldn't it be cool if...'' is mentioned, ''Chloe and Jimmy becoming possible parents'' is ALSO mentioned? This is just this CW affiliate trying to mess with fans heads, and fuel the fire of message board debates. But I probably wont end up making any sense to those who've already made up their minds wrt to these things. And Word to whomever it was here that said that this is just the prime way to get Lois and Chloe fans arguing amongst themselves - yet again. It seems that's all thats being pushed these days. As if there already wasn't a big enough divide. Is the CW doing this to distract from the Lexana disaster in this episode? Hmmmm, methinks, quite possible.

Anyways, not a bad episode. Clark really needs to step up his game. He was outplayed by Lex in that scene, and he didn't even get to play much of the hero. Lois was adorable as always, I especially loved how she made Olliver work for her affections. Good dynamic, and add Clark to the mix, and I cant wait to see it all unfold.

Lois has all the seeds to become the iconic Lois Lane. Credentials isn't all that Chloe needs to be called Lois, she needs the attitude and the personality, and for all the people who say "Why is Lois Lane even here?" Then why the hell is Chloe either if her fans are pushing for her to become Lois, which after two seasons of Lois sounds completely ridiculous?

To say Chloe should become Lois degrades Chloe's character even more. It's like telling Allison Mack, "Hey, you're Chloe isn't good enough so we're going to tell you she's becoming Lois Lane." After years of making Chloe her own, she's going to become someone else. That's pathetic.

I like Allison, I think she's a cool and great actress, but no one outside SV's tight bubble of segrageted fans are going to accept Chloe Sullivan becoming Lois Lane, and that's my opinion on that.

I think I forgot to mention how awful it is that the producers and writers seem to think everyone in the known universe wants to have sex with Lana. It's appalling; the girl isn't worth it and viewers don't want to see it. It has always been horrific to watch everyone fawn over this selfish little girl.

But again, Chloe is Lois to many viewers already. Make her Lois in name as well and have Clark chase her instead of Raya or numerous other pathetic women; that is always awful, too. Bring us the Clark and Chloe as Lois and all will be well.

And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois and Lois became Black Canary?

So much WORD. But then, Chloe always *has* been the real "Lois" on this show, that's been clear to me since Season One.

Sexana....ewwww. Lana looked about 12 years old in that getup, it just looked....so wrong. :/

As for Chimmy, it's nice that Chloe's got someone interested in her, but the best part of that was jealous!Clark. I wish the BDA would speak up, maybe then he wouldn't have been stuck alone in the loft at the end, with only a ball for company. (Jeesh, not even Shelby? Poor guy!)

Pretty good ep, mostly because of Clark/Chloe/Jimmy. :)

It was an OK episode. Not much to write home about. Clark was not increasingly heroic in this ep, much as I would have liked him to be.

Chloe was beyond plot device. Please, stop with this, she is fast becoming a completely unrealistic character. Doing all that she did, jack of all, a proper macgyver. This is not character development, it's just stuffing a particular character with all the necessary plot expositions.

Lex was interesting though, after a long time, his scene with Clark was very powerful.

Lois/Ollie were nice, though Clark/Lois scenes were sorely missed.

I also hope Clark steps out of this self imposed funk soon, because he deserves better than that, and it takes away from his heroism.

It was okay. Nice twist with Gloria (saw it coming early on but I'm relieved that it wasn't another Krypto-Freak). Although, the way it was resolved was much too conveniant and lazy of the writers.

In addition to that, Chloe is fastly losing my interest; she's solving too many things at too little time with far too little effort making Clark look like the fool. It's not amusing.

And her jokes and derogatory comments (which is irritating) about Lois make me dislike her even more. She's talking about someone who never says a bad thing about her, who always has her back, who supports her no matter what and goes above and beyond just to help her and Lois still gets the shaft this season. And what's worse, it seemingly came out of nowhere.

One of the highlights of Smallville I believe is the relationship between Lois and Chloe, but now, even that seems to dwindle against the majestic light of Super Chloe Sullivan.

I suppose the only character that remains in-character tonight and doesn't think it's all about her is Lois. She and Oliver Queen have a nice chemistry that I'm thankful works far better than her brief stint with Arthur Curry. They kept it light with a side dose of serious, and look, she's still Martha's Chief of Staff.

Chloe and Jimmy may be the parents, oh God, you have got to be kidding. But I won't mind that.

Chloe as the real Lois, nah, we love our Lois. And Chloe is cute as a sidekick. Keep her that way. Besides, she looks too cute with Jimmy, can't even think of breaking them up.

Jealous wibes from Clark on seeing Chimmy? Nope, didn't see that. But hey, Chlarkers have the right to make it up for some time. They are pining hopes for this for five years.

But the Arrow trailer TOTALLY ROCKS!!!!!! and Clark's gestures towards Ollie say it all. He is going to fall head over heels in love with Lois. The real action is waiting to happen, now that would be some jealousy. After all, it is worth it when you are fighting for your future wife.

And I am finally beginning to like the idea of Lex and Lana as a couple. But still waiting to see some real action between the hero and the villian.

Thanks for posting this Claire!!..gosh, I have so much to say..where do I start...

Overall, the show was ok..i thought the "action" died away too quickly at the end...like a previous poster said, Gloria was defeated too easily, and without any real excitement really....Smallville needs to work on that...

Let's go to the relationships...

Lois and Ollie: Honestly, I like Ollie...he is sarcastic and funny..and I love a man that knows how to handle a bow and arrow (hence my love for Legolas on LOR...but I need a whole other blog to express my love for him) He and Lois can be a potentially good couple.

What I DIDN'T like about this couple was how fast the writers had Ollie fall for her. geez,... a little build up please???? So what, they know each other for a day and a half and all of a sudden he is so enamored by her and she is so "very convincing" that all she had to do was tell him how good he looked in tights to get him to work with Martha???...I am not saying that Lois is not a beautiful woman, and that Ollie wouldn't fall for her like that, but I thought that the writers should have put a bit more emphasis on her skills in promoting Mrs Kent, and not her skills in showing cleavage through her costume. Because, really, how much did she say about the value of workign with Mrs Kent?...very little...and someone's looks should not be the only way to get a job...

Chloe/Jimmy: again...no build up. I thought they would have made a cute couple, but honestly..Jimmy didn't do it for me in this episode. I just don't see him as a fit for Chloe. I belived Ollie and Lois better. He is supposed to be cute and dorky...but he seems just a bit too dorky for Chloe. And what happened to taking it SLOW Ms Sullivan??? I hope that someone was really on that couch...cause Lana with a baby is bad, Chloe with a Jimmy kid is WORSE...

Lex and Lana:....hmmm...my first thought GROSS! Surprisingly though, I liked their interaction at the end, after the costume ball. There was a beautiful song playing in the background, Lex was being funny and honest with Lana, and I actually began to like them together...I was actually beginning to see a glimmer of a "good side" to Lex. And then she had to start stripping his clothes ....and I was utterly turned off...

you know Lana, when Chloe said to "jump right in", I don't think she meant to have sex with your ex-boyfriend's former best friend...she was talking about dealing with your trust issues!!! And does no one wear underwear anymore???? As soon as the dress fell off, that was it???..no bra, no underwear???.....yeah, I guess Smallville is in the business of selling sex...

Let's go to people:
Clark:...Clark, Clark, Clark...jealousy is a helluva thing isn't it????...I see green somewhere and it aint coming from the Kryptonite! So, unless Smallville is going to do a 360 degree turn with Clark to promote Clois, I have no doubt that my boy is beginning to have some serious feelings for Chloe...we have seen it now in 3 episodes....

Here is what I loved about Clark last night:
1)He is beginning to show more signs of being the hero.

2) His face absolutely FELL through the earth when Jimmy came out of....well...where ever her was....

3) The look on his face in the hospital room when Jimmy said he should have been there to find the body with them. You know what I read in that look?..."You didn't need to be there Jimmy. Chloe and I have been doing this since we were 14!" A bit territorial are you Clark???

4) Clark being a little lonely at then end. He needs it.

Chloe: I can't help it. I LOVE the girl. I love how she goes out of her way to help him when he's in trouble. Now, honestly, I thought Clark could have used heat vision or something to get out of the vines..he needs to be a bit creative with saving himself...but how could you not love the girl who stood in a hospital, looked in his eyes, bared her soul and said she'd die before she betrayed him???....and with this show...she just might keep her promise...

Lana: I was beginning to have some respect for her from her talk with Chloe. I thought she was maturing when she confessed her trust issues. I thought it was a good step to go in her character....but then she dealt with her trust issues by taking off Lex's clothes.....not what I expected from her enlightenment..

i'll stop here....sorry for the long read folks...but there was sooo much

ps to Smallville..the fact that most of this post is about relationships, and not Clark becoming a hero means that you need to tip the scales away from soap opera to the real purpose of the show...

Not bad. Not the best either. I loved that Clark and Lex finally had a scene together. And it was a good one. Lois/Ollie scenes were cute, and how smart and witty Lois was, especially in that last scene. Go, Lois! Martha, Lois and Lana also all looked beautiful at the ball. Justin Hartley was very good in his role as well. Cjhloe/Jimmy going at it was cute too.

I could have done without the Lexana scene, but it was inevitable I guess. Also really looking forward to Clark/Lois scenes in next weeks episode!

And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois

Love the idea :D She and Clark are already trying to get Jimmy Olsen out of trouble, and Jimm is taking pictures to impresse Chloe *g*

Sexana was most definitely hot! I also really enjoyed the Clark/Chloe/Jimmy triangle, and the Clark and Lex confrontation :)

Since Lois in no way resembles the real iconic Lois Lane and Chloe always has then yes, that is an excellent idea. Lois needs to work on her ethics (last weeek's writing an article using Chloe's idea AND info without her own real research and then allowing someone to add nonsense to it so it would sell and being okay with that was awful. It showed us again she Is not the real Lois Lane.

But she could use those martial arts skills and become someone like Black Canary and may be end up being a force for real good instead of a caricature of comic book icon.

Chloe does everything the real Lois would do, she's always loved journalism, wants to work at the Daily planet, supports and loves Clark no matter what. She has worked for what she wants and that's being the top reporter at the best paper in the DC universe. She's always done the work of Lois Lane on this show; it's time she got the rewards that should go with it and Clark Kent as well. Make it so!

I've already picked Chloe as Iconic Lois Lane - did a long time ago! Chloe is awesome and she's what my Superman needs! She is the link he has to humanity and I love to see him realize this. He wanted to be human for Lana, let him want to be super for Chloe. Lois becoming the Black Canary -that's great! Aren't the Black Canary and Green Arrow together anyway? Not a comic buff, but I like the sound of it. LOVED Lana and Lex! It was a hot scene and the leading up to it was sweet with them walking hand-n-hand bare footed!

Oliver Queen really rocked in this episode.
The PZ escapee plot was ridiculous and the special effects were worst. Now Clark has stepped back to his old mopey shell. I thought when he learnt that the Park Ranger was a PZ escapee he would proactively search if there are any more like that. But he is only worried about him being alone. No wonder GA outshines Clark this season.
Tune down know-it-all Chloe. Its becoming annoying to watch.
"And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois and Lois became Black Canary? But we digress."
I don't understand why you had to add this statement -The only reason I can see is to create a shipper war between Lois and Chloe fans.

[b]The comic book Green Arrow isn't so into Lois Lane though - at least, not if our Lois doesn't dye her hair blond, change her name to Dinah, develop a sonic scream and start wearing fishnets. And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois and Lois became Black Canary? But we digress. [/b]

Very funny comment there Claire.

You actually made me laugh on how you hit that one straigh on the Chloe fans who live, eat and sleep on the Chloe is Lois fantasy.

But we love our Lois as Lois don't we? No matter how many arrows this dashing Green Arrow throws at her, we know that her heart belongs to Clark Kent a.k.a. Superman.

Chloe and Jimmy are cute together. Finally, Chloe got someone who can love her back. Although her saving the day everytime is getting a bit over the top lately.

I am looking forward to Clark's confrontation with Ollie. Then we might see some real hero action. And a woman like Lois Lane is worth fighting for, isn't she?

I think Clark's more than just a loner right now. He's feeling a lot of guilt about Zod and now Gloria. Who knows what else he let out of the phantom zone. It's like he won't let himself be happy...penance if you will.

"And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois and Lois became Black Canary? But we digress."

You don't digress at all. You would, in fact, save the freaking show, by such an outcome.
As for "Wither"- no idea, since all the Clois spoilers made me stop watching after five years. Sorry, but I can't stomach this insulting joke of a Lois any longer. When I contrast her to Chloe, who already embodies all the traits that made Lois Lane a role model to young women, I can't understand why the show continues to ignore the gold mine they're sitting on in the form of AM. Have they not been setting up Chloe to be the "girl of (Clark's)dreams, masquerading as his best friend) for five long years?
Make ED the Black Canary, make her Hawkgirl, make her go evil and turn her into Giganta so you can keep her in skimpy outfits. I don't care, just stop shoving her down our throats as Lois.
It's bad enough we have a mopey Superman who's sorry about having powers and a Lex who goes evil because his heart is broken over worthless Lana Lang. I'm hoping the iconic figure of Lois will at least be saved by making Chloe turn out to be the intrepid reporter and Superman's love. It would mean I could start watching again.

Chloe as the Lois Lane. It's not like TPTB haven't given me reason to think so with the past five years of endless anvils like " I had no place to go but up up and away," or "You are destined to be a big shot reporter at the Daily Planet. Do you really picture Clark Kent being able to keep up with you?

Lois as Black Canary. Hey it don't matter what you do with her. Make her a renowned muffin peddling CEO. Whatever is needed to make Chloe The Lois Lane of Superman Mythos.

As for Wither. Once again Lana annoyed the hell out of me.

Lois showed once again why she is just a judgemental rude person.

And once again Chlark saved this episode.

The Chimmy was cute, I'll give you that. But Jimmy was already annoying me 15 minutes in the show

The Chlarkimmy scobbying was great. We need more of that. All the actors play great off each other.

And poor Clark once again being upset and jealous after finding out Chloe and Jimmy were at Makeout Point. Hey Clark, be a man and make you move to Chloe.

Whither was an okay episode to be honest. The only saving grace were Lois and Ollie scenes. Even the Lex and Lana scene that I was thinking would be gross came out to be a good one.

If Smallville has to get some good ratings and beat competition then AlMiles should really make this show about Clark Kent not about Chloe Sullivan. She saves the day she is the hero she does everything.

If you like Chloe so much may be Smallville should be cancelled and a new show should begin which stars Allison Mack only. Because all other talented actors even Tom Welling is wasted on Smallville. I wonder if he even objects to it.

There is nothing hero like about Clark because the writers never let it develop due to Chloe. Even Lex Luthor is send into background. He is nothing like the villian in comics. Erica Durance is also wasted because Lois is never allowed to develop. Kristin is performing well in this season but she is absolutely sidelined. It is like there never was a Lana on the show at all. Keep showing Chloe week after week after week.

I think season five was so good and CW promotion of Season six was so promising but now I am loosing all hope on Smallville oops sorry I mean Chloeville.

I'd love it if Chloe turned out to be the Lois Lane. That'd be a landmark twist in mythology.

So now we're starting to see a bit of the Green Arrow.

Wow! Look another review of the new show on the CW called: Green Arrow-ville! Starring, the Green Arrow and some other hero we like to call Superman!

Like we can expect anything less from the CW and this blog than yet another rundown of how much Green Arrow means to a show called Smallville. And you know, there was this character called Jimmy Olsen that I could have sworn meant more to the Superman Myth. My mistake, it seems.

not if our Lois doesn't dye her hair blond, change her name to Dinah, develop a sonic scream and start wearing fishnets. And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois and Lois became Black Canary? But we digress.

Please don't digress. It's about the most interesting point in this post on how wonderful Green Arrow is.

Like Batman, he's one of the few superheroes who doesn't have any superpowers, but fights crime with his finely honed skills.

A bow and arrow...riggght. You mean archaic skill. I want to thank whoever nixed the idea of letting this show use Batman. Best decision ever made for that fandom.

Did you like the increasingly heroic Clark in this episode?

Yeah, thanks for remembering that character by the way. It used to be a show about him, before Justin "God Gave With Both Hands" Hartley. And what Clark absorbed feelings for Lois through osmois? Wind shift change?

Are they, in fact, the parents of the rumored baby?

I hope so. And I hope they're happy before the inevitable miscarriage or whatever the PTBs have planned before they redo Martha's storyline from a couple of seasons ago.

And what's up with Chloe and Jimmy? Could they possibly be parents too?!

Er, no. They're too sweet right now to compare to the sexiness of Lexana. Lexana have 'baby' written all over them.

So dear blog, next week "Arrow" huh? Woah! Another riveting epsiode in the Green Arrow-ville! Wow. Be sure to add pics too you know, just so we don't mistake the show for being about Superman.

And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois

Yes, yes it would.

Chloe as Lois Lane?
Yes, please :)
She's every bit the Lois Lane without the name.

And, Lois as the Black Canary?
I know that's been swirling around for a while and I wouldn't mind it one bit.
In fact, it would make a LOT of sense.

Sexana?
I knew it was coming and only put up with it because it might create little Alex, which would go back to "Lexmas" and I'm excited about that!

Chloe and Jimmy?
Only put up with it if it makes Clark jealous and results in romantic Chlark :)

"Wither" was only great because of the Clark/Chloe/Jimmy scoobying and well, Chloe in general...I don't know what Smallville would do without her :)

I think when Lana finds out about Lex, she's going to crash hard. I do think Lana will be preggers.

My hope in the Chlois theory actually happening is what sometimes keeps me hanging on to the show. I think Erica would make an excellent Black Canary! She has a lot of chemistry with Oliver, more so then Clark.

I missed Lionel in this episode.

And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois and Lois became Black Canary?

That's actually not a bad idea. I thought there was great chemistry between Lois and Ollie. And Chloe has always been more like comic book Lois than Lois on the show.

What did you think of "Wither?"

I enjoyed the episode. The wannabe Poison Ivy really wasn't too great. But, the rest was good. Clark made jokes. The Sexana was sexy. (Hey I like Lex and Lana). The Chloe and Jimmy was cute and awkward. I'm loving the Clark/Chloe/Jimmy triangle. Just when Clark realizes his feelings for Chloe, Chloe decides to make the moves on Jimmy. Hopefully the later half of the season we'll get some Chlark.

I like the idea of Lois Lane being in fact the Black Canary, it suits her personnality better.

Of course for me Chloe has been the iconic Lois Lane since the beginning so i'm just waiting for a change of name and hair color ;)

SVLois as Black Canary? Sure, why not. She's definitely no Iconic Lois Lane that's for sure.

Chloe as THE Lois? Well.. DUH! That's obvious. She already is, she just doesn't have the name yet.

The ep was okay. Better than Sneeze to be sure. Sexana was actually hot. Justin Hartley did much better this episode than last week. Could care less about Lois Lame though.

Chloe is teh awesome getting to save her boys. And the Chlark team work will always be the best part of episodes for me. The Clark/Chloe/Jimmy triangle seems to be heating up so that's great. It's good to see the jealousy come from Clark. Just claim your woman.. be a man and step up already! Jimmy is totally jealous of the two of them, so I suspect we'll see more of that.

And in no way will we get a Chloe/Jimmy baby. Gag. Jimmy is more into Chloe than Chloe is into him.

Clark at the end kind broke my heart. Poor woobie.

I think "Wither" was better than "Sneeze". As much as I loved last weeks Chlark moments, over all this weeks episode was better.

Seriosuly, how awesome is Chloe?! The girl saved both her guys. I can't see anyone else better fit to role with the punches of Superman than Chloe. She just needs to dye her hair and change her name to Lois Lane and it will all be set. Good thinking Claire, from your lips to the writers ears :)

I do think Lois and Green Arrow have a sweet chemistry. I know it's unpopular, but I like Lexana. Lex doesn't put up with Lana's whining.

Chimmy were cute but Chloe needs a man. I can't see her in love with Jimmy. I can see where he might start to annoy Clark and Chloe.

And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois and Lois became Black Canary? But we digress.

THAT?...would be the coolest!

It would forever make SV THE BEST superman story of all times.

I liked Wither a lot. It had lots of Chlark with a side of Chimmy (I'm stomaching Chimmy..just cause it makes Clark jealous).

Chloe is so THE Lois! those scenese btw Clark/Chloe and Jimmy remind me so much of the Clark/Lois/Jimmy dynamic from other Superman media.

"And wouldn't that be a kick if Chloe became the comic book Lois and Lois became Black Canary? But we digress."

Lois as the Black Canary - not a bad idea! Black Canary has a very different personality from "Lois Lane" and I think it suites her better. The current Lois is just not the professional woman I would expect "Lois Lane" to be.

Chloe becoming the iconic Lois Lane? She's
already the iconic Lois Lane, she just hasn't adopted the name yet. The writers have only been dropping clues about that one for FIVE years now.

"What did you think of "Wither?" Did you like the increasingly heroic Clark in this episode? Was Sexana as dreadful (or as hot) as you thought it would be?"

Well, you obviously saved money on the CGI this time - yes, we noticed. And Gloria's character was a bit of a waste - if you were going to make her so much like Poison Ivy, she should have just BEEN Poison Ivy. And she was defeated way too easily. The Sexana wasn't bad for me - I know it wont last, but Lana will learn some hard lessons from it, and Lex will come out of it a very bitter evil man, so in the end it serves a purpose. The Chimmy was kind of fast, but she still has feeling for Clark, and Clark obviously has feelings for her. He just needs to step up and be a man about it. Lastly, the scene with Clark and Lex was great! Both men stood their ground, and it sets up their future confrontations perfectly.

Ugh, Sexana! GROSSSSS But Chloe and Jimmy are cute but in a lame way, you know? We all know couples like that.

I don't like how Clark's kinda a loner right now. But it's part of his journey, I guess.
