Summary: Excited to get this DVD set!!!
Review: I was skeptic when I first saw the promo for this series back in the day. I was like "What lame network decided to do this series?" As a huge Superman fan, I was disgusted at the thought. But after watching the show, I immediately became a fan and haven't looked back since! Sorry for being a doubter! I already own the shows on my computer (thanks to the digital age) but I'm excited to get the DVD set. Great series. Would definitely recommend.Superman Superfan

Summary: Kristen Kreuk is HOT
Review: This series is great! It mixes in the storyline of Superman while developing the relationship between Lana Land and Clark Kent. Comedy, Action and Adventure all mixed in with Romance and Drama. As a friend once noted, Smallville is the "soap opera for men" which I laughed off and totally agree with.

Summary: Overall, a great start.
Review: The Superman mythos has gone through many variations in it's life. From comic books, to movies, to television series. This series removes one element, the blue suit. That, and adding a dash of teenage angst make it fun. Tom Welling as the Man-of-Steel-to-be gives a great performance as young Clark Kent. Annette O'Toole (Superman III) and John Schnider (The Dukes of Hazzard) add a nice touch as Ma and Pa Kent. Though Pa needed to lighten up considerably in the first season. An issue that was adequately addressed in the early second season. The supporting cast, especially Michael Rosenbaum as Lex Luthor, deserve the lion's share of the credit here as well. Without a strong supporting cast, this show could easily fall on it's face. While the first season tended to lean a bit heavily on the "Kryptonite-created Villian of the Week", it's a fun ride. And, the producers have obviously had fun throwing in some touches... like having Clark wear a blue t-shirt under his favorite red coat... or the original Smallville High emblem (an "S" in a shield) worn by everyone but Clark. All in all, an excellent show from the WB.

Summary: Best TV Show in Recent Memory
Review: Before I watched "Smallville", I assumed there was no way for a WB made show to compete with the other aspects of the Superman franchise. Doubting "Smallville" was probably one of the biggest mistakes I have ever made. In my opinion, it is the best show on TV right now, and one of the best that I have ever seen. The reason the show works, is because it takes an interesting look at the legend of Superman. You bare witness to the human side of the character - Clark Kent, growing up as a teenager in Smallville Kansas. Clark must adjust to his different powers, the relationship between Lex Luthor and Clark develops, and you see the classic romance between Clark and Lana Lang, who are destined to be just friends. Watching the two fight their feelings for each other, really provides for a great romance side to the show. The show works for both Superman loyalists like myself, as well as fans who are new to the character in general. For the loyalists, the show sticks very close to the original story, and the special effects are outstanding when it comes to Clark's powers. For the people who are just starting out with Smallville, it still works, because it offers fresh young actors, entertaining episodes, and current hit music. Tom Welling is absolutely outstanding as Clark Kent, not only because he looks the part, but also because he acts with such intense emotion. You come to feel for what the character is going through. Kristin Kreuk is great as Lana Lang and is absolutely gorgeous! I am very happy that the producers are sticking a Lois Lane type character into the picture with Allison Mack who plays Chloe - the skeptical and news hungry editor of the school paper. John Glover hits the bullseye with his portrayal of Lionel Luther. Michael Rosenbaum is a good actor but I am still torn on his role of Lex Luthor. It is frustrating to see Lex and Clark as friends, when the two are destined to be enemies. The most surprising performances come from Anette O Toole and John Schneider who play Clark's parents. They both do an extremely good job and really capture the true essence of John and Martha Kent. Smallville remains basically flawless in my eyes, and gets better every single week. The actors, entertaining episodes, and great music really make it a treat to watch. If you are not already watching the show, do yourself a favor and start as soon as you can!

Summary: Smallville - The Complete First Season is TV at its best !
Review: The popular TV series on the WB channel follows the life of young Clark Kent (Played by Tom Welling) as a teenager. He discovers his amazing super-powers, grows up with the girl he has a crush on Lana Lang, and develops a friendship with a a evil genius, who will in time become the bald Lex Luthor. The Kryptonite that falls in Smallville with Clark causes some crazy things to happen, giving the young hero plenty of opportunities to save the day and one day become Superman. This is a great show that I encourage anyone to see. This set includes a 6 DVD Box set, that includes all 21 episodes, deleted scenes, season 2 sneek peek, and many other extras. I just hope they release LOIS & CLARK: The New Adventures Of Superman on DVD soon.

Summary: Acceptable, but not one of my my faves
Review: I have to admit, this show is all right. I think they could have done a much, much better job with it than what they did do. Kristen Kreuk's acting is superb, but Tom Welling's seriously isn't. He's very artficial and doesn't really act. Sure, he can furrow his brow and say "Dad, I feel so alone," but he doesn't portray the character of Clark Kent, i.e. Superman, well at all. He just says the line and kisses Lana and shoots fire from his eyes. Is that acting? Is that feeling the character from the soul? I think not. I also don't like it that each episode is like it's own little capsule and doesn't lead into the other episodes much. Sure, it maybe does a little, but not much and that's very unrealistic. I sometimes watch this show when it' on if I happen to see it becuase i do like everyone's acting except Tome Welling's and it is pretty intense sometimes. The plots are sometimes a bit unreal and bit forced, but it is a decent show, just not one of my faves.

Summary: Smallville - 1st Season
Review: Hey ... If you really wanna know about Clark Kent's High School life, this is the right DVD. You can see how Clark will be discovering his gifts and powers. It is the only S/F drama of today's hits that shows values and keep morality on the first place. With those great Clark's parents, and all his friends ... Pete, Cloe, Lex Luthor, and Lana ...Trust me, you'll get a great series with drama, science fiction, romance, moral values ... action and more, with this alien from Kripton who becames the most powerful superhero in the world. Es lo mejor ... Especialmente Lana Lang. o(*_*)o

Summary: The revival of Superman for the 21st century.
Review: Smallville is truly great. Don't listen to what people say about it being "Just another Teen Drama, but with aliens and mutants". It's quite simply not. It's more than that. The show was of to a slightly rocky, and very formulatic start. Someone is obsessed with a girl, gets weird mutant powers from Kryptonite, uses them for ill (often involving homecide), and Clark defeats them with his powers, and the mutant dies somehow. But, the show quickly became much more focused on character interaction and drama, something that is sorely missing from the run-of-the-mill Superhero flicks of the 80's and 90's (i.e., the Batman and Superman movies). The show has truly breathed new life into the Superman franchise, and given Superman/Clark Kent an actual character, instead of the no-personality "Truth, Justice, and the American Way" character that he has always been. He is an actual person now. Season 1 is a bit rough here and there, but it managed to break loose from the formulatic episode structures before it ended, and Season 2 improved on it greatly. I sincerly hope that Warner Brothers re-considers their descision to make the new Superman movie be entirely seperate from the show, as I would very much love to see Tom Welling don the iconic red and blue Superman garb on the big screen. He is Superman, as was Christopher Reeve before him.

Summary: Yay!
Review: So what if everyother episode has a corny villian who is scientifically explained by chloe at the end as a mutant or some sort of hormonal deficiency...
Flat out truth, great show just to watch for the fun of it, one of those "smart-ppl" shows on small scale, true there isn't too much of a centralized plot, but little 20 second scenes come back to haunt you 5 episodes later if you took a bathroom break at the wrong time.
Overall, fun to watch and simple enough without having to remember the five-generation-long-family-tree/succesor/previous-slayer/hirearchy-of-the-villians/etc...
Either way, kristen kreuk's puppy eyes in every episode are funny to watch and jackson's lame attempts to help superman are quite comically effective.
Just one major negative.... why is young clark's mom his movie girlfriend? (annette o'toole is lana in the superman movies)
