True! I think that means they did their job, for the most part. Some people just defend him to death though and think that he didn't do anything wrong and that take used to be pretty annoying but I think most have more nuanced opinions. I shipped Chloe/Lex a little bit- I read a few fics but I was never a major shipper. I was much more a Chloe/Oliver fan back then. :D

I can't feel the same about it all now I know what the actress did later (and yes, I know the character and the actress are two different people, but at the same time, they're the same person with the same face/voice/etc., you know?)
Totally fair. I know someone else who stopped writing Chloe/Oliver fics, because of what AM did and she was a major shipper/Chloe fan.

The age thing is easy to forget with the casting, especially Welling. He looked so close to MR, physically, that you don't think about it. I was the same age they were back then and as much as I loved Clark, I remember I used to get very impatient with him but only much later did I realize "oh, he was only supposed to be 21/22 in s7- no wonder he didn't know what the hell he was doing!"

Yeah, Oliver murdered Lex in the middle of s8. Well whatever Lex stand in they had because it obviously wasn't MR. It was a clone. So there was this episode in s10 where Clark ends up in an alternate universe where he was adopted by the Luthors and then by the time he escapes that version of Lionel who is still alive ends up coming back with him and he created some Lex clone. It's all nuts and I apologize if I confused you further but I can't remember all the details.

It is probably not a well known song- I don't know how I found it anymore, because it is not my style of music either. Likely through a fanvid!
