Smallville - Season 10 [US] *Spoilers*

Richard Dower

^ it was definately Lionel, he ran toward Clarke and ended up "over here". But i do confess to being confused at the start which Tess was Tess, i thought our Tess landed with our Clarke at first, did anyone notice our Tess was well into that kiss with Clark Luthor?

Me thinks she kinds fancies old Clarkey boy!

Of course she does. Have you not seen the signs all along? She's a Traveller groupie and sees Kal-El as a God. Why I've no idea as he's been a very indecisive and self-doubting character.

Why the hell didn't he further reassure Tess by saying even on the other side where Lionel raised her she was still a decent person underneath?

I wonder then if Earth 2 Lionel showed up on Earth 1 Does that mean that a deccaying corpse would have droppen through the portal into Earth 2??? lol

Was wondering the same thing myself. Technically, Lionel 2 should have woken up in Lionel 1's grave.

Indeed he should have, and Lionels 1's remains should have dropped in Watch Tower 2, but be lets be honest, regardless of how much the writing has improved over the last few months there's still loopholes and problems with continuity.

Mr E

No sign of Lionel, but still a very good episode. Great to see they're going out in style.
7 weeks to wait to see WTF the ending was about.

Actually enjoyed that,was pretty good.

Minor thing that annoys me is when shows can't get an actor or don't want to pay for one and then have a stand in and only show the back of them,in this case Aquaman and Impluse. A lot of people wouldn't give a crap about it but its always something that annoyed me for some reason!

best episode of the season so far. Can't believe we have to wait 7 weeks to see the next one.
Only thing that confused me was that shouldn't carter and his wife come back to life again?

Richard Dower

^ agree it was the best one this season, loved the Chloe flashback - that was a deleted scene from episode 1 that they reused in this ep. - action packed, Hawkman was fantastic, very sombre ending with the JSA members carrying his dead body, that end was very well shot....then, bam!....cliffhanger!....NOOOOOOOOOO!!

Hugely entertaining, it's bubbling up nicely for the end of the series...i just *hope* they give the fans the payoff they deserve and waited 10 years to see, ergo Clark as Supes.

Wouldn't mind some kinda prologue ala Caprica.

Stark

What was with the superman symbol thingy Clark had in his hand after he "killed" Slade?

Skerries

i thought he sent him to the Phantom Zone, no?

That's what I thought as well - one way trip there.

That episode was actually kinda good. The season has definitely been better than the previous few. That's not saying a whole lot really, but it's nice to see it not being quite as painful anymore to sit through.

It's Jor-El's crystal that Rya Gave Clark in season 6 when all the "zoners" escaped when Clark left the phantom zone. It's used to teleport people to the zone so that's where Slade is gone.

Loved this episode in general. The Hawkman/Slade fight scene was Savage!!!

Carter and Sheyera will come back to life but they have to wait to be reborn, they don't just show up straight away. Loved the funeral scene and soooo dont have the patience to wait 7 weeks!!!!!

Sarn

Seven weeks! Should have known. The ending would suggest that it has something to do with Sheyera coming back, but we'll have to see. Didn't take long for the VRA to get going but having all of the heroes on the run makes a good change.

Cant see sheyera coming into it as the producers said that hawkman wouldn't be returning after his death.

Also have to mention that they done a great job with the cgi for his wings. Looked alot better than last time!!

Deszie7

Was a great cliffhanger ending can't wait for it to be on again, I agree the wings were much better this time

I still find it a bit shocking that Hawkman is Daniel Jackson :pac:

I thought he was great for the role, his personality and attitude was portrayed perfectly by Jackson

He was great for it though. Just so different from the SG1 role it took me a while to cop it

Good man, couldnt remember his real name and couldnt have been bothered to google it lol

Antomus Prime

Ok this is slightly off topic - but I was just watching an old episode of Justice League Unlimited and when The Flash started talking i couldn't help but think i knew the voice from somewhere. I had a suspicion but had to google it to be sure and I was right, it's none other than Smallvilles very own Michael Rosenbaum!!!!

I thought it was pretty cool lol

Bring Rosenbaum back to Smallville!!!

Folks, does anyone know when RTE2 are planning to put Season 10 on Thursdays? Did they start it up last year in the new year was it?? Like the first week of January maybe?

G-Money

Good ending to the mid season break.

I really hope they have him suit up and flying for a while before the last episode. I'd hate it if the only shot of him flying and the suit is the last few seconds of the last episode.

Also, slightly off topic, but I wish they'd bring back the end credits music that they had from Season 3 onwards. It's much better than what they have now.

Hawkman even says he won't be in this fight, it's up to the rest.

A friend emailed them on that about a month ago and was told it would be shown on RTÉ but they hadn't decided when, but to keep an eye on the RTÉ website. I doubt there will be any advertising though, just a listing.

There is some TBA slots on Thursday/Friday nights into January so maybe it will be shown some time next month, thats only my guess though. Best just scan the guide every week!

The TV schedules here are a joke. Programmes chopping and changing days, times, it's stupidity.

I used to share with a Canadian girl and she programmes would be on at the same time each week. I think we ended up talking about that because of the X Factor in how some weeks it would be on at 8pm, other weeks 7.30pm, other weeks 7.45pm.

Is it any wonder people watch programmes "elsewhere".

Richard Dower

YES!...Geoff Johns is back!

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/ustv/s85/smallville/news/a295524/smallville-writer-teases-booster-gold-ep.html

Smallville writer Geoff Johns has confirmed that a future episode will introduce both Booster Gold and the Blue Beetle to the show.

He told Comic Book Resources that 'Booster' will focus on the early days of the character, who was originally created in 1986 by comic writer Dan Jurgens.

He explained: "It's very Booster 1.0, meaning that he's in the early stages of his career as a hero and [he] is pretty self-serving."

Johns also revealed that Jaime Reyes, the third and current Blue Beetle, will be the version that appears in the episode.

"I always liked the chemistry between him and Booster, so when I was going to do this episode, I wanted to do those two together," he admitted. "I think the story that we came up [with] works really well."

He added that the installment will include "Beetle's origin, Booster first meeting Clark and Lois and maybe a cameo by someone from Kord industries."

Smallville returns to The CW on January 28.

You're right. I refrain from watching them "elsewhere" myself, but when it comes to the way programmes like Smallville are scheduled I can't say I blame those who do.
