Well, now the new season of "Smallville" is starting and it is on at the same time as "Enterprise." Bye bye "Enterprise;" I'm watching the Boy of Steal.

Does young Superman get to fly now ? I do not think the he had flying powers in previous seasons.
I have to tell you something everything I wrote above is a lie.

when the producers first promoted the show they vowed no tights and no flights.... but they could have changed their minds. I haven't seen anything to indicate Clark has discovered his power of flight.

Didn't he fly in the last season premier? The tornado one?

I thought he was just afraid of heights; that he had the power but was unwilling to use it for psychological reasons. Could be wrong, though. I haven't watched in a while, and I think it came up in a synopsis of an episode I didn't see.

Both shows air twice a week here. The original episodes air on Wednesday and then they reair on Sundays. I don't even think they are opposite each other on Sundays.

Smallville is starting to grow on me, I hated it at first, I found the idea of Lex and Clark growing up together moronic. Then, to prove a point, I watched it, I became a closet Smallville fan. I have yet to come out to my mum.

Damn fine women though.

He jumped from one building to another in one episode.
And it doesn't show what happened, but he kinda flew/fell in the tornado season ender.


My crappy TV doesn't get good enough WB reception to watch Smallville on Wednesdays, so I'm still gonna watch ENT.
I haven't seen most of the first season and none of the second season, but S3 seems a little better.

Episode 33, "Insurgence." And when he suggests it, Pa Kent asks him if he's sure, since he's afraid of heights. "Metamorphosis" also has a conversation about a tree house that Clark refused to enter. He claims it wasn't "structurally sound," but Pete claims he was afraid of heights.

He said it felt like he was able to control where he was going (translation: flying). And in a much earlier episode, he woke up floating in mid-air. And there's the building-to-building leap he made. However, he still hasn't figured out how to fly consciously yet; so far, it's all been subconscious, usually assistance for him to reach a certain goal.

I rather like how they're handling flight, and his other powers as well. It makes Clark more human, having to learn control. That's what makes "Smallville" such addictive watching. :lol:

I don't know where I heard the quote before but:
"Comics is Clark Kent hiding that he's Superman.
Manga is Superman trying to live as Clark Kent."

In one of the deleted scenes from season one "Ma & Pa" Kent are discussing Clark's increasing abilities when "Pa" Kent mentions that Clark said he was floating when he woke up this morning. "Ma" Kent says something about him having to get over his fear of heights.

The idea that Lex and Clark grew up together isn't Smallville's. Few may know this, but in an old episode of Justice Friends, Lex and Clark knew one another from a younger age, and it was infact Lex's experimentation with Kryptonite in order to cute Superman of his bad reactions that caused Lex to become all fucked up and bald, and to hate Superman. So let that be a lesson to you, don't make people bald or theyll HATE you.

That came from a Silver Age(in the golden age Lex had hair) story which is what Superfriends' adopted.

And the Justice Friends is from Dexter's Lab :P

Though with Manga I don't quite grasp it.

Since Byrne Superman in comics have been much more about him being Clark(barring Loeb's Silver Aging of him...sadly Loeb writes a very good Smallville, now if he could only do that for regular comics I wouldn't be avoiding his work like the plague)

Or as I see it...the Silver Age was Superman...the current age is Clark Kent.

Make that two fans bailing, but not to 'The Boy of Steel' (I still think WB should have done Smallville + Young indiana Jones = Young Bruce Wayne traveling the globe, gaining the talents that will help him wage his war on crime).

Unless they finally reveal who Future Guy (I'm with many fans in that it could be Kirk who wants to stop Archer and his ship from being the first starship to be named enterprise) then I'll most likely stay away from it.
