Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It's a remora, dimwit.
"Titanic" got Kate Winslet naked...though actually most movies manage to do that.
I don't want to see Lex being evil entirely as a result of going crazy - I preferred the grayer, Hamletty aspect. He's paranoid, but with good reason. He is loved by his father, but also feared enough that his father's willing to do anything short of killing him.

Goodness no. Sometimes it's crazy, sometimes it's justifyable paranoia. And his hatred of Superman is born out of love betrayed... sighhh

I'm worried that they'll do a whole, "Oh, the evil that Lex does isn't his fault, it's because his oboe lost its reed." I'd rather have it seem logical due to his circumstances, that he's doing what seems right at the moment, and each individual decision can be sympathized with - it's just the ultimate effect tends to be evil.

So, didn't get to watch "Smallville" but I did see the last 10 minutes of "The O.C." -- now I really can't wait to see the rest of it tonight!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't want a crazy Lex.

I don't think we'll get a crazy Lex - because as soon as the drugs wear off he's back to normal right?
Anybody notice Forrest from S4 Buffy in the Tru Calling promos?
eta: whatever normal means for Lex - just not as crazy as last night is what I mean

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
skipping over everything:
I know -- watch smallville for the pretty boys. Ignore the plot holes. Laugh at the the fact that it is suppoesed to be family friendly tv. But the episode from last night made me angry. Clark betrayed Lex. He knows Lex is being drugged. Yet he just lets him get taken away. Granted Lex looking all tortured is yummy. But please, give me a break. this isn't just messing with the Smallville myth - of Clark the good teen with a loyal heart. It is messing with the whole Superman cannon. If there is a break Lex should be be the cause. Not Superman. Right now I would not believe that this itteration of superman fights for good. He just tries to hide. and he will lie, he will steal and he will commit violence, plus leave his friends to be hurt. Where the hell is clark learning anything about Truth and Justice.
Good thing there is a hiatus. Time might make me forget everything but the pwetty boys.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
See, in the Smallville season occurring in my head, Lex got over his fixation with Clark a while ago; now he has an on-again off-again thing with Wes and helps coordinate the superheroing business while Clark goes to college.
