...amount of money. So when Smallville popped onto my television, I was a bit sceptical. Seriously, how many times can you tell the story without either totally destroying it or just coping something from the past?!? Well, I was pleasantly surprised and am quite happy to admit that I am now addicted.
--Storyline--
You are introduced into the series with a blast into the past (well, 1989). You get to see the Kent’s just before their life begins with ...

...changes the small town of Smallville and those unlucky enough to be around. Kal-El's arrival is certainly a memorable one. Clark's alien origin is revealed and he makes a new friend when he saves Lex Luthor's life.

Advantages: feel-good show, family values etc Disadvantages: predictable, simple stories and wooden acting
Smallville started in 2001 and follows the story of a young Clark Kent (Tom Welling), his progression through and problems he encounters along the way. The pilot episode starts off by showing the meteor storm in which Clark arrived and the destruction caused by this, of which Clark later feels guilty about. The meteors not only cause devastation but they also spray kryptonite all over Smallville, making people acquire special powers in Smallville ...

Advantages: Catchy opening theme, great acting, brilliant storylines Disadvantages: Dvd's loading the same long sequence before you can watch any eps
...Kent in his teenage years.
On Smallville you'll see Clark Kent's super abilities appear. Starting with Super Speed to X Ray vision then to Defying gravity.
The shows creaters used the line "No tights, No flights" to advertise the show.
Which basically means that Clark Kent won't be wearing and Superman Costumes anytime soon and that he won't be flying.
This show is a great idea for young people who may be unfamiliar with Superman. This way Superman, ...

Advantages: action-packed scenes, well acted characters, great story Disadvantages: none
Tom Welling (Clark Kent in Smallville) acted well as Superman in this series.Aside from his great abs and handsome face, Welling live to the expectation to match the legendary acting of Christopher Reeve as Superman. Welling has a realistic acting. He blended well the personalities of Clark Kent trying to hide his super powers and Superman who wants to save the day with his amazing abilities.Welling is the new image of Superman after Reeve.The concept ...

Advantages: Brilliant story,couldnt of started the seasons stronger. Disadvantages: Some of the stories are a little extreme.
...so I decided to give Smallville a try.
Childish and silly? How wrong was I?! I loved it, it's very addictive and once you start watching you won't want to turn it off! So many evenings I promised myself I would just watch one or two episodes...4 hours later I'm thinking...1 more episode wont hurt!
Smallville series 1 basically shows the story of Clark Kent arriving on earth with the event of the meteriod shower. The first series shows how ...

...a meteor shower that hit Smallville in 1989 which is how Clarke arrived on Earth. The meteor shower and its effects on the town is a recurring theme throughout the series, but you never tire of it due to the great variation in story lines.
SO WHO'S IN IT?
The series focuses around the following characters
CLARK KENT
The star of the show. Discovering his different powers and using them to help defend his friends and others from danger, usually ...

Advantages: Superman as a teenager, with fit high school girls Disadvantages: poor acting
...evrey day, well almost ordinary. Smallville season 1 is an excellnt show i love learning about clarks up bringing and his roots. Clark has no problem saving people from evil Krptonite infected people, but still has the same teenage problems faced by his fellow school mates, i.e deciding who to ask to the problem is a much bigger issue than saving his friends lives from an evil bad guy. I love this show, but the episodes can be a bit repetative, i ...

...have all the seasons of smallville and I recommend it seriously to everyone.
Who doesnt know SUPERMAN?
Everyone knows about is powers like strenght, x-ray vision,velocity etc
But what about his childhood? and teenhood? We dont know exactly how Clark Kent was. All we know is that he came from another planet called Krypton.
Smallville tells you every single moment of Clark's story, how he got the powers, how he lives on his farm. The serie starts ...

She is very involved in the school's newspaper (where Clark gets his first taste of working in the media, leading to his employment in the Daily Planet) and has an entire notice board filled with newspaper clippings, in which are documented various stories which she thinks are meteor-related. She calls ...
