If anyone is likely to figure it out, then it would be Lex Luthor - and for your information, in Pre-Crisis (not sure about Post-Crisis) comics, Lex Luthor came to the conclusion that he was 80% positive that Clark Kent and Supeman was one in the same, however, he also dismissed it thinking that someone with that much power could not simply take the life of a lowly newspaper reporter.

Thats the thing though, I don\'t know if they are trying to stay true to the comics or what. I mean, I heard that the blond chick journo girl (forget her name) is actually a neice or cousin of Louis Lane\'s...

I think if the show becomes more successful (its already doing amazing things for WB) then I think he should fly. I mean, he can only stay in high school for so long, then he\'ll probably go to college, or work on the farm... again, I don\'t know if they are gonna keep it true to the comics or just let it all go.

At the heart Smallville is part of DC\'s "Elseworld" stories .
 An Elseworld story is an alternate universe or time, with the same characters. That is what Smallville is. Thus they can take liberties with the characters.

I\'m too lazy to read what everyone said, so I\'ll just add my input for someone else to skip over.

Smallville isn\'t as cheesy as Dean Cain\'s series of Superman.  That\'s probably the reason why I like it.  And Tom Welling isn\'t all that good looking.  He\'s got somewhat of a deer-caught-in-headlights look.  =P  Th guy who plays Lex is way cuter.  (And no I don\'t go after bald guys.)

Samwise, let me guess...you like Kristin Kreuk because I didn\'t come across that many pictures of her online as you have.  =P The only time I searched under her name I went to find out what part of China her mother\'s family is from.
And though she be but little, she is fierce.

I agree.  Lois & Clark was ok but the more special effects they tried to put in the worse it ended up looking.

Just a little FYI new Episodes start Wednesady night on the WB here in the states. The only reason to watch Lois and CLark was Stacey Scoggins and Terri Hatcher :D :D :D

Louis and Clark was great until they got married and then she went into the mental place cause she lost her memory, or did that happen before they got married? I dont remember...

Smallville has huge potential to become an excellent long running series, I just hope they have enough story lines to keep Clark in Smallville (he is already a senior in high school right)? What if the show runs for 6+ seasons?

To be fair, I kind of hope that they DON\'T make it a long running show.  The problem with any successfull show is that they keep making it untill it isn\'t so successfull (simpsons anyone?).  I think that if they cut it off, say at 4 or 5 seasons, well planned ahead of time, the show can go out on a high and popular note, before they really start struggling with originality.

Producers have said the show will end before Clark goes to Metropolis. They plan on him goin\' to highschool and one year of college (most likely). He isn\'t a senior yet, or I don\'t think so. The first season he was a fresman and it is his third year.

^^^Why won\'t they can it if its a success?

If the plan is to end the series before he moves to metropolis I don\'t see how they can keep pumping out storylines years after he leaves High School.

Maybe a spin-off?

As long as they release the seasons  on DVD in a timely manner, I don\'t care how long it lasts.

I just picked up the first season myself, even though I had only missed like 3 episodes on the entire season.  I love the show.  I think its safe to say I know pretty much everything about the show.  As far as the no flight and now tights comments.  well, this is a show all about superman before he is superman, so the suit is pretty much out of the question.  In the first season, clark floats, and in the second season, near the end, he says he has dreams that he is flying, and then wakes up in the middle of streets or fields.  
   Obviously, I\'m anxiously awaiting the beggining of season 3.
