Smallville to end at season 10(finally!)

[Admiral_Young]

^ Well he did open the box from Martha that was implied contained his suit...since his eyes reflected the crest of the House of El in color for the first time on the series. I don't think he is going to put on that suit until the series finale. I'm debating on when to post the summer hiatus thread...this seems like the first post season news already.

Good to see that this will finally have some sort of conclusion, but I'm very sad to see Allison go.

T Minus 51 weeks till Superman on Smallville/10 years of our lives paying off.










I really need to get a frakking hobby.

I suggest watching Enterprise.

A hobby, not a reason to kill myself.

I said ENTERPRISE. Not BATTLESTAR GALACTICA.

But, if it's a hobby you want, how about knitting? I was thinking of learning.

We're talking about them finally putting Smallville out of its misery and you recommend another "kill it with fire" situation?

Looks like Tom Welling finally told them no to any more seasons. Good for him. The CW would have milked this show for 20 seasons if Welling kept doing it for the money.

Thank god this terrible show is ending next year.

Is someone strapping you down and forcing you to watch this show?? What do you care if it's still on?

I'm surprised that there hasn't been a "Is this show still on?" post yet in this thread.

Even as loopy as this show has gotten, I still enjoy it. Although, it has needed to become less Smallville and more of a Young Superman show for some time.

Defintely NOT a terrible show. Most terrible shows do not last 10 seasons.

That's pretty much the show's problem.
Now that the Kandorians are gone it's mostly a story about Watchtower, Green Arrow and Checkmate with some relationship drama added and only a few Superman references here and there.

^Yeah, I'm going to give the writers the benefit of the doubt. The show is about the guy who becomes Superman, not Superman himself. So you can't have him complete the final part of the journey if there is another season coming up. Maybe with this being the last season, the final transition will happen without it being drawn out and avoided at the last minute.
Biggest question of season 10 for me:
How does Clark pull off suddenly wearing glasses and no one remembering what he looked like without them?

Tom Welling's interview with PopWrap:

Some highlights: Sounds like he's definitely willing to put on the tights by the end of season 10. He also really wants to get all of the major players back this season, i.e., Annette O'Toole, John Schneider, Kristin Kreuk, etc.

 

[Dick Whitman]

^ Exactly. I won't believe it's the final season until they've aired the series finale... and even then I may not believe it for a couple of weeks.

You would know better anyone but I don't believe they have ever announced a previous season as a last.

 

[Samurai8472]

I think it would be great if they did a flashback scene from the pilot. The scene where Clark is researching other people with abilities then the small conversion afterward.

*Clark chugs a jar of milk*

Martha- Where'd you learn your manners?

Clark- On a farm

^ Oy! That guy's commentary was yawn inducing.
