Smallville - Season 1

Pros: Great stories, lots of action

Cons: Nothing major

The Bottom Line: What a great first season to a wonderful show!

Review: After the big dumb disappointment that was Superman Returns, I didn’t have high hopes for anything else Superman-related. That was until some friends turned me onto Smallville. This show has been around for several years, and I found a used ...

Pros: excellent cast, inventive, the whole Superman mythology

Cons: rather hokey formulaic nature of this first season

The Bottom Line: Lovers of Superman or teen drama will revel in this well-crafted and compelling series, formulaic plot lines aside.

Review: I’m not usually a big fan of anything involving superheroes because I know wanton destruction is going to come with it. But I’ve never been able to resist Superman. Maybe it’s the fact that he can fly. (Man, am I jealous!) Maybe it’s ...

Pros: Tom Welling, Michael Rosenbaum, John Schneider, Annette O'Toole

Cons: Some of the villain of the week episodes are a bit repetitive

The Bottom Line: Smallville is a clever rethinking of a well-known story, and it's well worth watching.

Review: Smallville has been one of my guilty pleasures for a long time, but I've gotten away from watching the current episodes for some time. I was very happy to see that the first season had come out on DVD, and even happier when I unwrapped it on ...

Pros: Well balanced series on the teen years of Clark Kent!

Cons: Formulaic in theme, to many episodes dealing with the same issue.

The Bottom Line: Smallville is everything it should be: A teen based series centered around Clark Kent, who one day the world will know as Superman.

Review: Smallville: Season one introduced me to a series that has been quite popular for several years now. It just took me a while to catch up, and what best place to start than this wonderful DVD package. Smallville is based of course, around the fictional ...

Pros: the cast, storyline, music

Cons: somtimes a bit predictable.

The Bottom Line: Smallville is a great programme!

Review: Smallville is basically Superman as a teenager, set in the present day. However I soon forget whilst watching that Clark is in fact the future superman. I haven’t watched any of the Superman films but I am such a huge fan of American teenage drama series ...

Pros: The acting, the writing, even the music in the background, it's all great!

Cons: Only that the first season is rivaled by the second and third seasons.

The Bottom Line: If you like The X-Files and Buffy, you'll love Smallville!

Review: I was very skeptical when this show first premiered on television, and I therefore did not get into it until recently around the time the first season was released on DVD. Why was I so skeptical? Well, for starters, it's a show about Superman, but ...

Pros: One of the best shows on TV! Great quality DVD!

Cons: Not all the content is visible using just your home DVD player...

The Bottom Line: My favorite show on television. The acting and intriguing storyline is more then enough to occupy your life for a while in a positive way.

Review: Smallville, in my opinion one of the best television shows ever made. Reasoning behind my theory: The show itself is, in lack of a better word, cool. We have seen Superman movies and other shows based on Superman for years now, but never a version ...

Pros: A great take on early Superman

Cons: Can be cheesy

The Bottom Line: Sci-fi on TV at its best

Review: Smallville is a show on the adventures of Superman from when he was younger. It is set in an alternate universe to allow for any plot changes the writers decide to make. The comic used this method too and there are now many universes of Superman. It ...

Pros: cast and music

Cons: a bit predictable sometimes

Review: Smallville is based on the superman hero Clark Kent in his teenage years. Season 1 is based on Clark Kent trying to fit in with society as well as helping people while trying to keep his powers a secret. Smallville season 1 has a freak of the weak ...

Pros: Great casting, solid stories, Lex Luthor in particular...

Cons: A few too many freaks, Lana's tearducts go into overtime...

The Bottom Line: One of the hottest casts on television retells the Superman myth from the beginning.

Review: First off, everyone congratulate me—I’m a new daddy again! Our second son, Carter, was born last Wednesday. Everyone’s home and doing fine, and except for a few attacks from our first son, Carter’s been welcomed home with open arms. Just had to ...
