The Untold Truth Of Smallville 

Facts

@@JeffWeselyan As much as I love Henry, for me the same statement goes for Tom Welling embodying Clark Kent while simultaneously sprinkling it with the inherent moral and stoic Superman qualities that go beyond invulnerability

@@AHIMSA369 He was a great Clark but he isn't a good superman

​@mojomojo2091 in fairness he never really was superman. He was a great Clark Kent though.

@@mojomojo2091 Well, he was only Superman for like 20 minutes during the whole show, so yeah

I wish the character of Lionel would be featured in the next Superman movie.

My friends "made fun" of me for watching Smallville. I was 16. They all decided to watch it one day and basically said the same thing. Those scenes hooked them in.

No, Clark and Lois were.

agreed!

Same. Welling IS Superman. Not even Henry Cavill comes close.

@@bogotstogoskiing i agree i was rewatcching smallville show before starts on april 26th and mine is 25th i'm 21 now

This show gave birth to the arrowverse

The actors are currently making a rewatch podcast talking about each episode of Smallville. Michael Rosenbaum, and Tom Welling. Their chemistry is great, and it's a nice dose of nostalgia. Highly recommend.

@@tjatile i agree

That is a line from Smallville. They were discussing Clark becoming an airline pilot as a career. I wanna see they were still at Smallville High

That seems kind of obvious, did they not start doing that until smallville?

I know they've been doing it since 6 million dollar man so Smallville definitely wasn't the first

the 6 million dollar man also did it

Who watched that again? Oh yeah, nobody.

@@radicalreactions1633 it was one of the top rated shows of its time on TV, but ok

I disagree, This explaination was a pretext for Lex's jealousy, rage and xenophobia. Lex for all his protestations is a sociopath. He blames everyone around him for his actions. Look at his treatment of Lanna. ( Kidnapping, fake pregnancy, underage fixation) Sure Clark "could" have told Lex, but in the end Lex is a Luther and he would have either corrupted Clark or imposed upon him to use his powers in unsavory ways, thereby ending their friendship and having the same ending: Lex and Clark are Adversaries!

@@bawintermage8351 it’s the “what if” question if different things happens are you gonna end up a different person. That’s the point of the Lexmas episode. If Clark had told Lex the truth at the beginning before all the lying made Lex question Clark’s friendship could Lex overcome his demons with his fathers abuse and mothers death? But it’s also how would that change affect Clark and his journey becoming Superman. Then you end up going into circles and then it bleeds into Flashpoint or multiple earths, universes/alternate or parallel universes. It’s ridiculous but it’s fun to ponder for any character. The flash or Batman with their parents death or if Clark had landed in Russia or found by the Luther’s ect

@@vietnameeseguy I'm just here for the free NXVM membership 😁

@@bawintermage8351 LOL Get that hot brand ready ;p

super facts !!! haha recently watched the series again after realizing I fell off watching it originally when starting college. Clark definitely had ONE clear shot in my opinion. but you know ..."plot"

I read this as I'm searching for it on streaming lol

Just finished superman and lois now I'm down a superman rabbit hole 😅😂 watched man of steel too

That theme song is great but even after listening to it 100s of times I still only remember the first part lol. Somebody saaaaaaave me, something something something something 🎵🎶

@@toplookingdown971 Same🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Remy Zero, I believe.

There is a reason for that. In an interview with Justin Hartley he explained why he didn’t do the GA show.

Because it's actually closer to how the character is SUPPOSED to be.

Don't forget chloe 😊

They focused WAY TOO LONG on Clana! I grew tired of that juvenile relationship after a while!

My list order is Tom Welling, Dean Caine, Christopher Reeves,Brandon Rouche .....

@@bawintermage8351 LOL. You can't spell any of their names right, and HALF of that list weren't even him. LOL.

@@radicalreactions1633 Get some grass under you feet and a woman that isn't plastic or animated....It's a quick comment, like a text, syntax and spelling are relaxed. Besides, dudes don't warrant my attention, as they do with you.

Christopher Reeve. No 's'.

Yes, I totally agree! Christopher Reeve made me fall in love with Superman as a character, and Tom Welling was excellent as Clark Kent in Smallville, which is my second favorite TV series of all time after Game of Thrones. ❤❤❤❤❤

100%

Both Christopher Reeves and Tom Welling bring a "kind" nature to the character that I think is essential for it to work.

Christopher Reeve. No 's'.

Michael and Tom co-host that podcast.

@@spencergsmiththanks captain obvious 😂

@@halomultiplayermoments3651 OBVIOUSLY it's not obvious, or else the original comment would have said "Michael Rosenbaum's and Tom Welling's podcast" instead of calling it "Michael Rosenbaum's podcast" Bye bye 👋

It's on HULU. I recently rewatched the entire series! So nostalgic! ❤❤❤❤

@cyndigirl418 Ohhhh good idea! We just got Hulu!

@@MamaPinks Then Binge Away!!! 😁😁😁

As far as live action, Smallville Lionel luthor is the only Lionel, and he didn't appear in the comics to after the beginning of Smallville. Lexs father when in the comics before Smallville was named Jules.

That's because Chloe was created when they created the show. Another character the show creators, created, was Lionel Luthor.

LOL, that's not why he couldn't fly. And he ALREADY IS Superman when he lands on the plant, hence why he couldn't fly. The weight of the world on your shoulders kind of weighs you down.

I'm pretty sure that Chloe won't be the same actress

@@thompsonwelds I really don't care about chole I just care about Superman

@juanmata9814 I just saw she got out of prison, though. Maybe she can come voice, lol.

@thompsonwelds lol hell no she's a Bad person

Cheaper By The Dozen (2003).

Helen slater back in the day was pretty eye catching as supergirl too

Season 7 Episode 16 titled “Descent” the scene is at the 38:05 runtime. Clark is in the loft of the barn at his desk looking at the mirror box.

@@KataMiyo thx

Close, but it wasn’t Lois, It was Lana

@@sandeepsoni1702 Ah. I remember now. Thank you.

It was in the 100th episode of the series, Reckoning. Clark had finally revealed his secret to Lana and proposed to her. Lex eventually worked out she knew Clark's secret, leading to a high speed chase where Lana gets killed. Clark begged Jor-El to save her by going back in time and not revealing his secret to Lana. But by doing this, it sets in motion a series of events where Jonathan is confronted by Lionel about Clark's secret and has a heart attack while trying to protect his son. In addition, Lana doesn't die, but she also doesn't see what a danger he is, leading to her getting further involved with him later on. And to think, it all happened because Clark had disobeyed Jor-El and lost his powers earlier in the season. Clark got shot and killed, and Jor-El brought him back and restored his powers, but with a promise that somebody close to Clark would be taken from him in order to restore balance to the universe. For Clark, it was a painful lesson that there are always consequences to every decision.

@@markrobinson9394 I sadly don't remember all that. Oo. It's been year's since I watched the show.

@@nicklopez3133 That's because most people tend to forget the All-Lana-hour from the first 4-5 seasons. It was drawn out far too long and fans got tired of it.
