GREAT KARA/SUPERGIRL, She's Damn Hot and can kick ass fly, something we've all been waiting Clark to do normally even though we know how a bit exaggerated the series will become unless they bring in bigger villains and stuff, really would be hilarious to watch supes vs Doomsday, like the new 2007 movie (animated movie so ppl dont get confused in here)... and by the way i kind of thought kara was going to be a wonderman or wondergirl because of the bracelet even though she only where wore one traditional wonderwoman/wondergirl bracelet on her, well to finish writing GREAT supergirl/Kara i just know shes going to be EXCELLENT.

I can't wait. I love Laura Vandervoort from watching Instant Star!

Lana is alive look at a classic superman movie shes alive. Chloe power is probably a sacrifice type thing. Bad power.

umm. . . i just want to know about Lana is she really dead? . . . and i would also like a love intrest for Clark he focuses too much on Lana and all the other girlfriends he has had have died or w.e. I just want someone for him because obviously he isnt getting with Lois and who knows if Lana is alive and frankly Chloe is out of the question he just doesn't like her.

You obviously have not been watching Smallville lately. The past two seasons have been the show's strongest. The storylines are so much more interesting...having gotten away from the silly high school stuff from seasons 1-4. If it weren't for Smallville, the CW would be done.

What about Clark and Lex?
I feel for Welling and Rosenbaum, this show started out with such promise and now it's a sad vapid mess, which needs less characters not more. It just shows that TPTB don't have an actual coherent story to tell.
Cancel it, it's cruel to let it limp on like this.

Yes, very pretty.
Now, can this show get back to being about Clark and Lex? Honestly, the canvas was crammed full of 3 females already (and since the show is too cowardly to actually kill or write off any of them), I can't think of one single reason we needed another character to marginalize Clark.
Oh wait, I forgot, Spin-off's! Silly me *rollseyes*
