Love Wormhole X-treme. It was on not!cable a few weeks ago, but I only caught the tail end then. I would love to hear the real life exchanges that inspired some of the WX actors’ comments. Heh … or maybe I did.
I saw the Verizon ad, too. It was confusing for a moment, then just weird. I barely like getting phone calls on my phone. Random bits of show scoop? Nah. Then again, text messaging is beyond me, so I’m guessing I’m not the demographic they’re targeting.
And Peter DeLuise reminds me a little of David Boreanaz.
Yeah; sometimes the stunts are cool. And sometimes the writing is okay. And sometimes the acting is good. And sometimes the music distracts you from the badness. But they never all come together somehow-- the good acting is with crappy writing, or the cool stunt has bad lines, or whatever. Not very polished.
Yes. I have seen eps (usually the ones written by the creators or Loeb) where it can come together in chunks - but never a whole ep. This is what made me so sad about finishing up the scripts - they were fun to read - slashy goodness aside, the Clark/Lex relationship is gold - in various forms, it has kept the comic going for decades.
I'm going to be positive girl yet again and say the hope I have for the show lies in the knowledge that the creators started the show with a 5-year arc mapped out. They knew Clark wouldn't get "darker" until season 3 (spoiler ahead)
they knew they couldn't introduce other comic characters until season 3, Lois until season 4, etc.
Granted the story arc mapping does nothing to help the acting, but it still makes me think this season will be better than the last and in the end you will be able to see a decent story told. I know, I know - I can't help it, I'm optimistic by nature.
I wonder if they'll stick to their "no flight, no tights" rule.
My main issue is the evilification of Lex. Yes it must happen. I really don't want it to be cemented until the show ends, though. He's so much more interesting now, and I just can't wrap my head around the idea of a Smallville mega-evil mogul in his early twenties.

I expected Clark to fly for the season premiere after (during) the tornado -- that he'd have to fly to save Lana. Glad he didn't, though.
I'd like to see them play with the idea of evil - maybe have him get into more morally gray areas, and actually make the audience sympathize with his evil acts because they're done with such good intentions. Make it so that by the time Clark and Lex are having their showdowns, the audience doesn't know who to root for, and are in fact, terrified that either could be killed.

Yes. This. Plus all the heartbreak that their falling out should cause.

Wrod. We should only be so lucky.

Every single interview I've seen with the creators says that they will. Keeping fingers crossed.

What I've seen of the show seemed to be laying the groundwork for something along those lines...
Whenever I've seen Lex be a cold mofo, he has his reasons. And they try to make them good ones.
I dunno, there's still a perverse part of me that thinks it would be funny to have Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl, and Lightning lad show up to invite Clark into their super hero club.
Matt, I would *so* love to see that.
