I have been equally dreading and looking forward to this day and it's here. Not only is it here but it's over. Smallville is done. This is the last SV episode review I'll ever write. Wow. I wasn't sure what to expect with the finale but I've been crossing my fingers that they'll give us a great send off. Tom Welling praised it and while actors don't speak ill of their own shows, I trust him more than most people.

Before it aired here on the west coast, people who had seen it were telling me how much I'd love it so I grew more excited. So I watched, both emotional yet completed anticipating what was to come.

Okay, so as you all know, today is the Smallville series finale. In fandom, we've talked about this show ending for years and yet now that the finale is actually here, most of us really can't take it. I know I can't. I've overwhelmed and have been choked up all morning. With every post I see of people saying goodbye, I get all emotional again.

It's had its ups and downs over the years, but it's still a show that we watched and become invested in. It's harder in fandom because we spend so much more time thinking about it. We write meta, fic, make art and vids from it ... we talk about it constantly. So all of a sudden, Smallville becomes more than a TV show ... it becomes part of our lives. These characters are more than just fictional people- we feel like we know them and have grown to love them and care about what happens to them.

I haven't been watching since Day 1, though I know a lot of you have, but it has been a part of my life for the past 6 years. Once I got to fandom, it became even more important.

Because of Smallville, I joined fandom. I wrote fic and participated in discussions. I have had my issues with both the show and the fandom, but I have also met a lot of people online and made tons of great friends that I wouldn't trade for anything. I truly hope that I won't lose you guys once the show is over.

I am happy that we got 10 whole years and when I look back on this show, it will be with fondness and affection. I will forever think of it as a show I loved, despite its many flaws.

So thank you to everyone who has made this journey such a fun one and though they'll never see this message, I'm grateful to everyone who was ever apart of the show and all the hard work they put in to give us entertainment on a weekly basis for the past decade.

Now let's hope for an awesome finale! I am keeping my fingers crossed for great ratings and a kickass episode. Because Smallville deserves to go out with a bang. :D

So, on Tumblr, I found an interview with Allison Mack and thought I would repost it here. It's only sound, no video, but she talks about the last day of filming and Erica Durance.



Isn't that cute? Again, I love the SV cast. Plus, the 'Erica and I are good friends' line makes me happy. The whole cast always seemed like one big family and I love it reconfirmed by the actors. :D

There are new interviews up with Tom Welling, Erica Durance, Michael Rosenbaum and Cassidy Freeman (4 separate ones actually) about the series finale of Smallville. I posted them here, if anyone was interested in taking a watch.

I love the Smallville cast. They're just amazing. All of them. I am going to be a wreck tomorrow, I just know it.

For all my fellow Smallville fans, the first episode of every season is free right now at the iTunes store. I just saw it through Twitter and I thought some of you may be interested. :D

Another Friday, another new Smallville. This is the last episode before the series finale. Wow. That's really crazy, isn't it? Very overwhelming, at least for me. I can't believe the show is actually ending! Anyway, I had my doubts about this episode, like I have when I heard about the previous ones, but I was hoping it'd be better than it sounded. So I kept my fingers crossed when I watched.

For those of you who don't know, Tom Welling will be on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon that airs on NBC at 12:35 AM. Sadly, his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel next Thursday has been canceled for reasons unknown but at least he'll be on a talk show tonight! I saw a vid of him leaving the sets after taping, which you can watch here and he looks smooth! :D

Also, for people who don't mind spoilers, more pics of the Smallville finale (which sadly, is named 'Finale' ... WTF show?) are out! [livejournal.com profile] andreas_ri was awesome and released HQ pics on his LJ, but if you aren't friends with him, I uploaded them all to my Photobucket account, which you can see here. Enjoy!

Even the pics made me all emotional, which means I'm totally going to be a sobbing wreck during the actual episode. I think we Smallville fans need to form a support group, LOL. :D

That's it for now! Take care! :D

New Smallville this week. Not only does this episode mark Oliver's return, it is also Justin Hartley's directorial debut. I had mixed feelings on the episode prior to watching it, because much like 'Booster', it felt like it was centered not on Clark and considering we only have a few episodes left, that doesn't make me happy.

Anyway, of course I watched it and here are my thoughts.

spoilers abound )

It's Friday, which means there's new Smallville! NGL, I'm kind of sad because with every new episode, we get one step closer to the end. I think I need to be alone in the house when the finale airs, so I can cry, because I'm pretty sure I will. Support group anyone? LOL

Anyway, this episode looked cracktastic from the trailers and I wasn't really sure what to expect. I figured it'd be pretty awful and kept my expectations low.

I found this through [livejournal.com profile] sunnytyler001 and I think it was SpoilerTV who originally posted it. But it's a new finale trailer that is based around the guest star everyone has been waiting for. :D



Who's excited? *raises hand*

This particular hiatus seemed to go on forever, but finally, Smallville is back. It's the beginning of the end, which kind of breaks my heart, but it had to happen sometime, right? Anyway, though I was happy to have the show back, I was not looking forward to this episode at all. Sometimes, it's good to keep your expectations low.

All right, it's Friday and that means Smallville. This is the last episode before we go into hiatus until April 15th.

It's Friday and it's Smallville day! The trailers made this episode seem like pure crack and there were parts that seemed hilarious but I couldn't help but worry anyway. The last time I felt this way was probably 'Hex' and that ended up being a success. I actually wanted to be spoiled for this one but I was getting my hair cut when it was airing during in the east coast. It's hard finding SV spoilers without going into the Smallville tag on Twitter but I found out enough to make me believe it'd be okay. So I watched.

It's Friday and that means a new Smallville! On a side note, I'm sure you've all heard the ... news by now. I was one of the few people who didn't need it but nonetheless, it's quite exciting. Anyway, on to tonight's episode!

Smallville has returned at last! We had to wait an extra week for this particular episode but I was just happy to get the show back. I missed seeing Clois on my TV. Here are my thoughts.

It's Friday! You all know what that means. Smallville day. To be honest, even though Tom's directing, I wasn't really looking forward to this episode. But of course I saw it and here are my thoughts.

At least this week I can watch Smallville when it airs, instead of waiting until later. Here are my thoughts.
