Smallville
Warning. Possible Spoilers (via my conjectures on the latest episodes I’ve seen).
Ok. I’m an avid Smallville watcher. I’ve been watching since Season 1. I have watched as eight years of my life has flown by waiting for the ‘Man to become Legend.’
This season, I’ve been expecting the writers to finally tie up all of the loose ends and do a series finale worthy of so many years of dedicated viewing!
Doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen. I am seeing way too many hints that there is going to be a season 9. And, from the way things are going… i’m guessing that Allison Mack isn’t returning.
You see, Chloe has been harboring Clarks greatest enemy: Doomsday. We don’t know why yet. It could be that she’s in love with Davis Bloome (Doomsday), or she is trying to calm they beast that could kill Clark. Either way, I hate it. I am revolting as I watch Smallville. I want to throw things at my television. Perhaps this emotion is what the writers wish to get out of us. I, for one, am promising that if they keep this up, I will not watch Season 9. I think that Chloe has to die. It explains why the writers are ok with allowing us to hate her character. I , quite frankly, am tired of this love/hate relationship that we viewers have had with Chloe Sullivan over the years. And, I truly hate that they have written such a beloved character into such an abysmal place that could cause us to re-hate her all over again.
The other thing is this: Michael Rosenbaum (Lex Luthor) , John Glover (Lionel Luthor), Annette O’Toole (Mrs. Kent), Laura Vandervoort (Supergirl), Kristin Kreuk
(Lana Lang), and John Schneider (Jonathan Kent) are all missing. They’ve been killed, or gone AWOL.
Writers writers writers! Don’t they recall anything about past tv shows? If the actors are no longer there, wrap it up! Think Sliders! Remember how dumb that show became (one can argue that it was already dumb even with Jerry O’Connell at the helm) when neither of the O’Connells were in the show anymore?
Some shows died prematurely (Remember: Roswell, with only 3 seasons and a terrible finale that had fans writhing in pain for more). And, then there are those shows like Smallville that have overstayed their welcome.
All that I’m asking is this…. MAKE HIM SUPERMAN ALREADY. Then, Season 9 could’ve been ‘Metropolis’ or ‘Superman’ or ‘The Legend of Cal-el’ or something!
I’m so tired of ‘no tights, no flights.’ Really! I’m exhausted. I invested so much time into this series. And, I now feel betrayed by the producers, writers, etc. You are now trying to take advantage of us all instead of repaying us with a dénouement that we so deserve.
Thanks for the frustration.
