Smallville

I started watching Smallville again after pausing mid-season 6 after so many years. Let’s just say it’s been a while since I watched the show. It’s literally been years. But I wanted to give it another shot. Because why not? After Smallville I think I’ll tackle Supergirl. Yeah, I’m on a Superman kick right now. Or is it a DC kick, ’cause some Batman would be rocking too!

I’m not really into the other aspects of what was known as the Arrowverse. So I probably won’t explore much beyond what I have planned. That can always change though, there’s no telling what’ll happen to be honest.

I just finished watching the episode where the kid can read minds. He of course finds out Clark’s secret because, hello mind reader! But he was pretty chill about it. He didn’t go and blab it all over town. Probably because he has his own secret to protect. I kind of wish they could have kept the kid as a side character. But the focus is on Clark and his tuning in his powers, not some sidekick. But yeah, Clark needs a brother. Oh well, he won’t get that anytime soon.

I know he doesn’t get to put on the suit during the series. That was one of the stipulations of making the show I believe. No cape, no S on the chest. No suit. I kind of wish he had a dog Krypto in this show. But I guess I can overlook that. Only ’cause I saw the 2025 Superman movie and I loved the dog.

The good thing about not having watched the show for so many years, I don’t remember any of the storylines. So it’s like watching it brand new. I like that thought.
