I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’ve lost practically all interest in Smallville, since it has extended itself into more far-out fantasy than one would have expected from this show in its early seasons. It basically got too ridiculous to be taken at all seriously and has become a bad parody of itself as a show, especially in its last two seasons, although things were already degenerating prior to that stage in its evolution. That said, closing out the series without a return of Michael Rosenbaum as Lex Luthor would be a horrible thing for them to do, and even though Lana got on my nerves all too damn often, being that the writers were always determined to make her such a focus of the show, it wouldn’t be a good move to end the series without her return either even if only to help close it out.

At any rate, here are two recent articles about what may or may not be coming for the show’s tenth and final season.
