Smallville Season 8!


Recommended Posts

When? What ep?:unsure:

I think the episode where he wished he never came to earth. Then he sees what would have happend and Lex was president. He took the advice from Lois, who didn't know him, to act as a reporter for the daily planet. This all before he actually joined daily planet

And sadly the limping horse called Smallville drags on....and on....and on....

Grow a pair and fly Clark, be superman already. If they're going to do the Justice League, Superman needs time for independant adventures before JL forms. Bleh the story lines suck, IMO.

why do I keep watching? Hope for Superman to show? I suck for watching.

I forgot to mention stop calling the show Smallville when it is really Dramaville.

i couldn't agree with you more :(

Damn! I thought that was scene meant he finally got his secret identity in place and this scene would happen later in the season! :(

This episode was rubbish. I thought last week's was boring but this was even worse. Oliver's storyline was a little better than the Clark/Lana one. Can't believe they brought back 'tremor sex'!! As if it wasn't bad enough the first time around.

At least Lana's finally off the show, something which should have happened 2-3 season's ago.

I don't get it. They had a couple of very good episodes followed by filler crap. Are the writers not capable of coming up with more than 4-5 'very good' episodes a season? Surely they could have had Doomsday feature while still setting up nice arc leading to the finale...

Is it just me or is the actor that plays Clark one of the worst actor currently on TV. He always sounds like his just reciting his lines (A.k.a cue card).

I agree

Also so sick of the on / off again lana + clark crap ; its so boring

Also annoyed at the lame way they ended the Lex story arc (i wanted a good showdown with lex + clark, not just a boring explosion)

i also agree! (also one can say this about smallville since season 1)

I kinda like his "relaxed" style of acting. It makes the show watchable for me.

wow, a decent episode(compared to last one) gets ruined by never ending lona & clark cheese-fest.

what the hell happened to jimmy & lois ? no mention of them in 3 episodes, lol.

I was thinking the same thing. The last thing I remember is Chloe mentioning something about switching spots with her cousin to keep an eye on Jimmy.

WTF is Chloe still doing in Metropolis anyway? You'd think that having just tied the knot, she'd want to be by her husband's side. Yet here she is carrying on running the Isis Foundation like nothing's happened. Come on, surely the writers aren't so stupid to have missed this.

That looks good, but don't all trailers? I hope they finally move the story forward, although exposing himself like that seems....over the top?

I have a feeling there will be some sort of "undoing" event where everything gets reset to before he told people about himself.

No need to wonder whether "Smallville" will be back for a ninth season. Or if "Supernatural" will have yet another outing.

The CW has renewed six shows Tuesday, including both "Smallville" and "Supernatural," showing the world that despite its sagging ratings, it's here to stay ... at least for now.

By all accounts, the current season of "Smallville" was supposed to be its final one. The creators had left before the start of the season, as did the show's big bad guy, Michael Rosenbaum's Lex Luthor. But the new creative team provided a spark to the show that no one saw coming, and ratings -- while slightly off from last year -- are much stronger than expected. In fact, "Smallville" remains one of The CW's highest-rated shows.

Viewing numbers were not a question mark for a return of the show at all. In fact, it seemed the only sticking point was coming to terms with series star Tom Welling for a ninth season, a contract that apparently has been signed with the renewal.

"Supernatural" has been a solid lead-out show for "Smallville," and some consider the pairing of the two genre programs as the best one-two punch on any network's schedule. While both shows don't pull too much from the female audience The CW has been trying to attract, it still remains an anchor to the network's overall schedule.

One show that is now sitting on the bubble, however, is "Reaper." No decision has been made on that show quite yet as its second season doesn't even premiere until next week. Once it gets a few episodes under its belt, it's likely The CW will make a decision on whether it will see a third season or not.

Chances aren't good for the show, however. The CW, in renewing six programs and already announcing plans for at least two more tied with its "90210" and "Gossip Girl," has very little room on its schedule, meaning it might be easier to cut loose shows like "Reaper" if it's not pulling in the audiences needed.

    • First time clicking on a Sayan Sen article after he started making clickbait, vague headlines recently. Didn't read, just came here to say the headline doesn't look like very cheap, vague clickbait this time. Are you okay?
    • Good review, and yeah the benchmark breakdown is pretty clear but also a little messy in a good way. It’s kinda interesting to see where the RX 9070 GRE slides in between the 7800 XT and the 9070 XT , especially when it comes to AI tasks and Blender style workloads. The side by side with Nvidia’s RTX 5070 and 4070 makes it feel obvious just how competitive the mid range GPU scene has gotten lately, and that’s great for creators and gamers too since you can pick based on your priorities rather than only chasing one single thing.
    • That's it. I finally uninstalled Firefox because they often keep pushing buggy updates, only to test them later and make users suffer. No longer is it my alternative browser to Edge. What a waste of energy. Firefox is bad for the environment, just like Chrome (wasting RAM/energy).
    • Microsoft Weekly: new Surface, Windows 11 26H2, and more by Taras Buria This week's news recap is here, with Microsoft announcing Windows 11 version 26H2, launching new Surface devices powered by Snapdragon X2 processors, GTA VI preorder date and cover art, fresh Windows 11 preview builds, a quirky phone-sized e-reader with a physical dial, and more.

And, of course, you may find a word or two about older versions. Windows 11 version 26H2 is now official. Alongside Windows 11's new preview builds released this week, Microsoft confirmed version 26H2, which is coming later this year as an enablement package based on the same platform as versions 24H2 and 25H2. A newly published blog post details what IT admins should do to prepare for the upcoming launch. Next, we have new Windows 11 bugs. Users report that this month's security updates for Windows 11 cause all sorts of issues, including BitLocker bugs, OneDrive issues, black screens of death, and third-party integration in Office apps. Microsoft has not confirmed those yet, but it acknowledged other issues with its operating system. What Microsoft has confirmed is a bug where Recycle Bin delete prompts display internal file names instead of actual ones, and a year-old Windows JScript compatibility bug caused by security-focused engine changes. Moving to more positive news, Microsoft and Adobe are working on improving Windows performance in popular creative apps like Photoshop. Thanks to SPGO optimizations, users can expect up to 20% better performance. Finally, we have a few useful articles that can help you recover your PC or make it perform better. For one, we published a guide detailing what to do if your computer cannot boot after a clean Windows 11 install. There are two important steps you can try to get your system back to working in no time.

This week, Microsoft announced its newest Surface devices powered by Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon X2 processors. There is the 12th-gen Surface Pro and the 8th-gen Surface Laptop.

The Surface Laptop also received a new haptic trackpad. Mozilla is currently working on a major Firefox redesign, and earlier this week, it published a roadmap of upcoming features and highlights of the upcoming "Project Nova" rework.

Reviews are in Here is the hardware and software we reviewed this week Earlier this week, we reviewed the DuRoBo Krono, a portable, phone-sized e-reader with some interesting physical controls. This device has an Apple Watch-like dial for page turning, frontlight adjustment, and more. Software is simple and no-nonsense, but it also lacks some useful features and customization. Overall, the device proved interesting, but not flawless. On the gaming side Learn about upcoming game releases, Xbox rumors, new hardware, software updates, freebies, deals, discounts, and more. Forza Horizon 6 received two big updates this week. Alongside the Series 2 content update, developers pushed plenty of bug fixes and balancing tweaks.
