It's been on-air - so we can totally talk about how Lex Luther is going to be in the Smallville finale.
Lorne: You know what they say about people who need people. Connor: They're the luckiest people in the world. Lorne: You been sneaking peeks at my Streisand collection again, Kiddo? Connor: Just kinda popped out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I didn't say I had anything deep to say about it. But I'm glad MR got over his big blockage and is seeing the show out. He was all that had me watching (well, apparent from the Jensen episodes) for quite a while.

This is exactly how I feel.
Return to me, Lex. Return to me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I haven't watched SV in a few years, but I'm watching the finale.

Neil Gaiman just tweeted that io9 says to use his Dr. Who ep to convert people into Whovians.
Hm.
Must go read source material.

Yeah, I'm recording the finale. Might even watch it live, if nothing else is going on Friday.This will probably end with me re-reading my favorite SV fic, which isn't exactly a tragedy.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I agree with the "it was OK" statement.
If that makes any sense to you.
It does. I think you're right. I'm just not used to have a character that I think is more awesome than the Doctor on board. The companions, mostly, were equivalent in awesomeness. But River? She just shines.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I wish this Doctor weren't Matt Smith. I wish I liked Matt Smith better.

I am totally with you, Zen. I so want to love him, but can't. And it isn't even an 11 vs 10 deal. I just don't lose myself in the character when he's playing it. I notice every. little. thing. he. does. And it's not magic.

I'm with Zenkitty. I WANT to like him so much, but he just doesn't do anything for me.
The Rory death scene was ridiculous. How many times can they kill/almost kill him?
