Finally, after almost two solid months of reruns, Smallville returned with a new episode this week, and it is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen.
Seriously, Uzi and I have tried to be pretty even-handed with this show, but it didn’t take any time at all for our discussion of this televised atrocity to descend into an all-out hatefest. So please, enjoy it as we try to figure out just what the hell happened here. Why was Lois in the virtual computer Matrix simulation Tron world with the super-heroes? Why did Chloe wear a weird white pantsuit? Why did they have Clark fly using stupid video game cheat code logic, rather than just having Superman fly? We have no answers. Just jokes.
“Chris: Well, at least we’ve got next week to look forward to, because it cannot possibly be any worse than this nonsense.”
oh, but it can. (cue evil, misanthropic laughter)
I’m guessing you and Uzumeri haven’t seen the battle with Doomsday, then. So much build up…
Two things. One, Allison Mack has given a shit more than of most of the other actors that have been on this show. Two, she looks good in white leather. Other than that, there should be flagerant beatings.
Yeah, I’m surprised Matrix Chloe didn’t rate a “high points”.
I liked the part where they were completely unable to reference the Matrix in the dialogue, and yet there were at least a half a dozen places where the actors should have turned to camera and said “we’re in the Matrix! Don’t you get it! It’s the MATRIX!!! WINK WINK!”
