Would we have accepted kristen's Lana if she'd been Ginger?

Just saying. Stacy dyed her hair something awful for that Superboy show, but really, if Lana was a redhead like Clark's mom you'd begin to ask questions like how closely are the Kents (Well, the Clarks really. Clark was her maiden name. You did know that? It does seem a little inbred , no?) and the Lang's were interwoven that Clark and Lana were not siblings? Actually was the decisin based on not belittling Annettes lush carrot top by having a second gal half her age with a ginger mop sauntering around? (Or vice versus really, if you wonder how Kristin would handle being constantly compared and out classed by a woman twice her age which is very mirror mirror in reverse just because they fall into the same inconvenient subgroup of loveliness. Hey? Didn't she play Snow White in a movie?)
 
Er, since when did audiences not accept Kreuk? She was on the show for eight years!

I don't think the average viewer cared that she wasn't a redhead.
 
I never had a problem with her on the show. Being a redhead would have been in better keeping with the source material however.

Globally you're right of course, in so far as Smallville effects Joe Sixpack and the Hockey Moms, but this board right here is a little antiKreuk by in large.

Her tick, how she smiles for no reason (I think it's because she can't remember her lines and needs to concentrate?) creates my own counter tick where I am medically necessitated to punch her in the mouth.

I might be an angry man, but I recently found out that the slow running on baywatch was a trick to make up for short falls in their filming because they had so little money to spread around in the beginning, that I have to consider the the 4 or 5 minutes she spent an episode smiling between words wasn't exactly the same stalling technique to spread a 30 minute script into a 40 minute program.

Why must everyone try to play me?
