This is just a nightmare waiting to happen!!! Leave the classics ALONE!!! I've hated Ostroff ever since she canceled my Everwood!!! She seems to want to run the network into the ground!!!

Gush when is Clark going to become Superman anyways? The Clark Kent from Superman The Movie left his home in Smallville behind as soon as he found the crystal. He said his goodbye's to his Earth mom and off to The North Poll he went. Got The Fortress of Solitude built and began his 12 year training to become Superman. The Clark Kent on The Smallville TV show however just keeps running away from The man he is sopposed to be. He would rather be with Lana or whoever then becoming the hero of the world. And being a farm boy. I keep asking myself why do I still watch it? I have not missed a single episode since Smallville debuted in 2001.

CW doesn't want "Smallville" or "Supernatural" to end just yet
Regarding "Smallville," CW boss Dawn Ostroff says, "I think the producers have done a great job coming up with really good storylines this year, but I do think the show still has a lot of life yet to it."

I've never watched either of the series, but I would love for the creators to say F You and end them. Then The CW would be screwed.

The only good things about it were that Gordon Jump, Frank Bonner and Richard Sanders reprised their roles as regulars. Howard Hesseman, Tim Reid and Loni Anderson also guested.

Yeah, and I think he was also recurring on Growing Pains as Maggie's dad at the same time.
