Summary: Smallville Rules
Review: The series is a great show, I love how you get to see how Clark became Superman. I think the stories are new and interesting and I think it's great the way they show how Clark and Lex were such great friends in the begining. I also like the love triangle of Clark, Cloe and Lana. I thought it was strange that the WB said no flying for Clark until I rewatched an episode of Lois and Clark in it Clark told Lois that he didn't fly untill after high school. I can hardly wait untill the series in on DVD.

Summary: Excellent Show
Review: With Buffy no longer on that leaves 24 and SmallVille as my 2 favorite shows. Smallville is a coming of age Superman series with Clarke Kent dealing with being a teenager and with being from another planet with super powers. Clarke slowly starts to get powers such as x-ray vision in this season and in season 2 learns he can shoot lazors from his eyes. It's nice to see how Superman learns to deal with having powers. I mean in the movies he acts as if he had powers all along. In Smallville you get too see that when his powers come to him slowly they actually scare him. That's actually better done than the scenes where Peter Parker learns that he can shhot webs in Spiderman. In that it's taken as a joke and his powers don't scare him as much as they should when we first learns of them. When Clarke learns he can shoot lazers he carefully masters how to control it so he doesn't hurt someone on accident. Anyway Smallville's only problem is that it can have these silly X-Files like villains that you know are no match for Clarke. It's still satisfying and cool to see how he takes care of each one of them though. The show can also be annoying how Clarke and Lana have a Dawson and Joey type relationship. Clarke likes her, she likes him but she has a b/f that stands between them being together. Most episodes end with them bonding and looking into each others eyes and smiling at each other "makes you want to scream out, Kiss already!". The show is still 10 times better than any of the other Superman shows that have come along in recent years. It's more serious and darker than Louis and Clarke. It's sorta like Superman meets Buffy meets the X-Files meets Dawsons Creek lol. What makes it like Buffy is that he has sort of his own Scooby gang as well. He has his wanna be jock friend Pete and his conspiracy believer friend Cloey who also has a huge crush on him. Surprisingly enough Clarke is also good friends with Lex Luther (Michael Rosembalm from Urban Legend). Michael Rosembalm who had short lived WB shows before Smallville is excellent as Lex Luther. Hell he might actually be better than Gene Hackman. He plays Lex as he slowly becomes bad. You see the good...yet bad in him as he struggles to not be like his dad in each episode. Tom Welling is also awesom as Clarke Kent. What makes this show so good is that the performances are as interesting and engaging as the plots of each episodes. If you aren't into this show and think it's too mushy for you, I think you need to watch it to see what you have been missing. It has it's mushy romantic side to it to attract women viewers but it also has enough action and intrigue to attract male viewers as well. So what are you waiting for ? Check out this show and then maybe you might consider buying these dvd's....I know I'm getting them.

Summary: VIllain of The Week- - Taken To New Heights
Review: Like the title says..this show was basically the villain of the week variety. However, the overall theme that made this a little different was Luthor. Lex Luthor, possibly the most infamous ic villain of all time. And when fans saw the devoloping friendship between Luthor and Clark, it sowed the seeds for what promises to be one of the bloodiest fallouts of all time. Other than that, Smallville was as afore mentioned, a villain of the week show. People with kryptonite electricity powers, kryptonite psychics, ect. But mid-season, the show began to drift from its stereotype. Overnight, or over seven nights between each episode, it seemed to become more of a show about growth. It began to focus on the characters, and it finally became a hit. Then it killed the audiences. The season finale was in fact a cliff hanger...one that ... many off. So, buy this DVD knowing that it will leave you hanging...and wanting more. If you think this season was great...and it was...then season II will blow you away.

Summary: First to do Justice!
Review: Let me say that Tom Welling should be given the Superman role for the upcoming movie. He is the first "Clark Kent" who does the character justice. I've read comics all my life, some handed down by my brothers and I know that this Clark is the best by far. He is a real person. ... Smallville on a whole has the most excellent cast, everyone adds something unique and irreplaceable. I wouldn't change a thing. Right down to the song selections deserves praise. Admittedly, some episodes stretch things in order to create villians for Clark to deal with BUT think about it, we have the Hulk from gamma radiation (which coincidentally kills) and the Fantastic Four getting powers from rolling around in space (again in radiation), so why be so critical if a T.V show seeks to create villians by the same flight of fantasy? The scripting for the first season is excellent, Lex is concise, succint and executes his part with innate ease and precision. Kristin and Tom are perfect together and if they do make a movie I think she should be Lois and he, Clark/Supes... they are too dynamic to separate! They are extremely convincing and are the core of what drives the show - his/her search for the truth of their parents/place in this world. Otherwise, his parents are very real, they teach him real values and have characters that you can identify with. For family value this series is one of the best. Also, Alison Mack (Chloe) and Sam Jones (Pete) give the high calibre performances - which seem totally in keeping with their natural inclinations/character/personalities. The best thing about it all is that Smallville is a living breathing community. It has synergy! You must NOT skip seeing this DVD or the next, for the 2nd season is even better!

Summary: Smallville is the place to be
Review: I love this show! I hope season 2 comes out on DVD as well. I've already pre-ordered season 1 and I plan to do the same for season 2.
I hope this show lasts for a while (though we all know it might not, seeing how season 2 ended) Anyway, this show is for the most part clean and good family entertainment.

Summary: Tom Welling is so hot!
Review: I love the show SMALLVILLE! It has got to be one of the best shows that people aren't watching! At first I thought it looked weird, but it is very intriguing. The stories are all great and the characters are very complex. There is a surprise in every episode. The main character, Clark Kent, struggles with his identity because he has all these powers and he doesn't know why. The truth is, he's Superman! Everyone should watch this show because it's one of the best on the WB! ...

Summary: Smallville: Not So Small After All
Review: As you may already know, Smallville is the story of a young teen named Clark Kent. He will grow up to become the man of steel, also known as Superman. Tom Welling who plays Clark Kent is very charming in his role. Lana Lang is played by the beautiful canadian actress Kristin Kreuk. Both actors exude charisma and anytime you watch these two on screen you feel their chemistry. This series is one of the best shows on television. I highly recommend it.! 5 stars

Summary: The only show I watch on television.
Review: My husband has been a fan of this show since it's beginning. Since I am not a fan of television, it took him awhile but he finally persuaded me to watch one episode with him a couple of months ago and I've been hooked ever since. I have been anticipating the release of this DVD collection so that I can see what I have missed of this wonderful show. When there is so much nonsense on television, it is refreshing to find a treasure like Smallville.

Summary: a hip show with a lot of promise
Review: "Smallville" is the teen drama that puts a new spin on the Superman mythology, following the adventures of a teenage Clark Kent as he discovers his roots and learns to hone his powers. Lois Lane, the Daily Planet, and Metropolis are still off in the future for the budding Superman, but one-day nemesis Lex Luthor becomes a part of Clark's life early on when Clark saves him in the pilot episode and, in an interesting twist, the two become friends. Although not yet a criminal mastermind, Lex's darker tendencies do surface from time to time, showing us the gradual progression toward his destiny. Also along for the ride is Lana Lang, Clark's high school crush, and parents Jonathan and Martha Kent (John Schneider of "The Dukes of Hazzard" and Annette O' Toole, who played a grown-up Lana in "Superman III"). The pilot episode dazzles with a look at Clark's arrival on Earth in the midst of a meteor shower. (The meteors, of course, are laden with Kryptonite, which can not only hurt Clark but also have some unexpected results on the people of Smallville.) After the pilot, though, the show is hit-and-miss for most of season one with a lot of episodes taking on an "X-Files" vein, featuring a different Kryptonite-produced "freak" every weak with little emphasis on developing Clark's story (a mistake that wasn't repeated so grievously in season two). Still, "Smallville" happily marries sci-fi, teen angst, and a comic book legend in a clever show that often packs an emotional wallop and mixes in hip new music in a way that isn't contrived but, instead, adds to the experience. In short, it's a show that's definitely worth checking out. If you do purchase the season one DVD set and are a little disappointed by some of the episodes, take comfort in the knowledge that the show really doesn't find its footing until season two.
