WOW SMALLVILLE EPIC!!!
All I can say is wow!!. This show is epic!! No other Superman show or movie can compare to the greatness of Smallville. Infact no other superhero show can compare either. Tom Welling puts such feeling and emotion into Clark Kent, really bringing him to life. Smallville has people from the other Superman movies starring in here or guests appearances in the show as well. Of course DC comics was involved giving insight. It's pretty epic and well thought out. Of course there are very important episodes explaining his past and who he is, as well as Clark experiencing life and life choices in other episodes. Alot of tie in's explaining how and why things came to be when he will one day be superman. I started renting Smallville via Netflix DVD via the mail. I was halfway through season 2. It was just taking too long for the turnaround time from Netflix. I couldn't wait any longer. I went and bought all 10 seasons on Amazon HD video at $29.99 each. I couldn't be any more happy. Best money I ever spent. I still continue to watch. Thank you Tom Welling, cast, and crew for bringing us Smallville. This show holds a special place in my heart. Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed guaranteed.

The story picks up and gets better!
Season 1 ends on an explosive ending that makes season 2 start off very strong and compellingly. After the conclusion with episode 1, it offers insight on a mystery that lasts throughout season 2 and is solved by a surprise guest star who played the original movie superman! Another great thing to note is the introduction to Clark's new heat vision which goes nicely and plays just as an important role as his x-ray vision. Personally I really enjoyed season 2 much more than season 1 but I did love the fact that a lot of characters and villains make cameos and reappearances throughout the season which slowly starts to take its toll on Clark. Ultimately, he makes a sad and shocking decision by the end of the season as his character grows to be one that most of us can easily relate and feel empathy for. Aside from that, the video presentation does improve with less artifacts as well as the cgi/special effects having more effort put into them. The audio did seem off at times, almost sounding like mono, but its understandable as its a 2.0 stereo track which still sounded more pleasant compared to season 1's audio track. Overall its a very solid season that you should give a chance if you didnt like season 1 and the "freak of the week" episodes.

Saving Me from Insomnia
i watched Smallville when it was first broadcast and loved it, mainly because Kristen Keuk who plays Lana Lang is so gorgeous and Tom Welling is just a handsome delight completely up to the task of embodying Superman. And yes, Chloe is a great character and this program would have been boring without marvelous Lex. I stopped watching after Lana left the story line. But one night when sleep was being particularly elusive, I caught the show in reruns on TNT at 3:00 a.m. in Los Angeles and again the next night. After a couple of nights where I realized I was straining to stay awake once the episode started, I decided it made more sense to gain some control over when I indulged this silly, secret passion and I've not regretted it for a moment. I had the flu last week, forced to stay in bed for three days solid and I'm not sure I would have been able to pass the time with such grace without the fun stories and pretty people who so effectively diverted my attention from my distressed digestive track.

Date with Destiny
The legendary adventures of the Teen of Steel continues with "Smallville: The Complete Second Season". In this second season, Clark Kent (Tom Welling) begins to investigate his origins and learns some stunning revelations of his true destiny on Earth. The rivalry between Lex Luther (Michael Rosenbaum) and his devious father Lionel (John Glover) heats up and the new woman in Lex's life (Emmanuelle Vaugier) could be his salvation or tragic fall. The close friendship between Lana Lang (Kristen Kreuk) and Chloe Sullivan (Allison Mack) creates certain difficulties for Clark. "Smallville" is the popular live-action comic book series that follows the adventures of a young Clark Kent during the years before he becomes Superman. The second season shows some improvements in the series' dramatic content and the relationship between the characters, and also avoids the repetitive "meteor freak of the week" trend. The episodes storylines appear more creative and better structured, and allow the supporting cast to have a stronger effect in the series' outcome. The second season also delivers some thrilling action sequences and great visual effects.The "Second Season" 6-Disc Box Set is a reasonable improvement over the "First Season" Box Set. Like the previous box set, all 23 episodes are presented in 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen format. Its picture quality isn't spectacular but is certainly well-defined. The Dolby Digital 2.0 sound is rather pleasant. Some episodes contain deleted scenes and insightful audio commentaries with producers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, and cast members Tom Welling, Kristen Kreuk and Michael Rosenbaum. The box set also includes the engaging "The Chloe Chronicles", "Christopher Reeve: Man of Steel" and "Faster than a Speeding Bullet" featurettes, a fun gag reel and some colorful interactive menus. "The Complete Second Season" Box Set will delight fans of the hit WB series and scores a satisfying "B+".
