Smallville Premiere was Good

I saw the new Smallville last night. It was great as usual. Smallville is always great at doing cliffhangers, and Season Premiere's. They do a great job of it. It's just that during the middle of the show it starts dragging on. Still all in all I love that show.

I noticed in the credits that the mother is not around any more. First they killed off the father, and now the mother is gone. Clark is really growing up. They briefly introduced a hot new Super chick. She didn't say anything, and they didn't show much of her.

She rescued Lex from being trapped under water in a police car after the damn broke. Then we see her again at the end flying around. I don't know why every one else seems to be able to figure how how to fly except Clark. He's in his 20's now, and he still can't fly.

I know of course the real reason is that the producers of the show don't want to have to pay for the special effects of flying for clark every week. Those flying sequences just let the money fly right out the window.

I'm look forward to the new season. I also like the fact that Lana is thousands of miles away in hiding, pretending to be dead. It's not that I don't like Lana, it's just that I'm tired of Clark whinnying over her all the time. I wish he would hook up with somebody else.

I was hoping he would hook up with Chole, but I can see Jimm Olsen in the opening credits, so that doesn't look like it's going to happen. Clark also doesn't seem to be getting along any better with Lois, so I don't see any potential there.

Maybe he'll fall for this new Super chick, assuming of course that they are not related. In the comic books Super Girl was Superman's cousin.

Well, we'll have to wait and see what happens. The first show was good, so I'm glad of that.
