I wonder if they'll stick to their "no flight, no tights" rule.
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.
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

It's a remora, dimwit.
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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I thought this was what they were already doing. That's what made the show worth watching for the time I was watching it.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I wouldn't be surprised - I'm not sure what kind of producer he is now, but he's definitely both writing for and directing the show.

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 imagine Lex won't go completely evil until Lionel is out of the picture, which the producers should keep from happening until near the end of the show's run, if they are smart.
