Matt H Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Anyone a fan? Watched the lasted episode of Smallville last night; #20 - Beast. (basically a brilliant spin on the lead up to Clark's show down with Doomsday) It was brilliant. Considering we are 8 seasons in the story lines are top notch. I think it's because Smallville is now under the control of some new producers and writers and they are doing a fantastic job. It's like the qaulity of the first few seasons all over again with fresh ideas. It's confirmed there will be a season 9, but judging by the quality of season 8 and the ratings still being good, I'm thinking Smallville could end on a 10 season high. I think there's rumours that Tom Wellingh as signed on for another 2 seasons! Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 What episode did you watch? tbh, i'm not sure where sky are up to with Smallville. After they were like a year behind with Season 7 i started to download them online and have done so ever since. Latest episode to air in America was #20 - Beast. There's two more episodes left in Season 8 now, #21 - Injustice - airing on 7th May & #22 - Doomsday - Which is the season finale airing on 14th May Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have to download the rest and catch up Oh right, that was no.17 so only 3 episodes behind. That's not too bad. I just remember being really disappointed with E4 that it didn't show Season 7 for a long time. It had finished in America and still months later nothing over here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Bloody E4. Indeed. I'll post a link later of the site i download the latest episodes from. They are litteraly available a matter of hours after they have aired. I think Season 8 is available for pre-order on Amazon too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiceRocket Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 The continuity announcer on E4 said at the end of last week's episode said it was taking a break, 2 weeks I think or back in two weeks, we'll find out tonight after 7 when the Sky EPG updates. (I'm not too bothered really as there's footy, Prison Break and The Wire for me tonight ) As for the show I'm finding it's back on the up again with this Doomsday storyline.

Bizzare, don't understand why unless they are slotting in some 2 week reality tv show or something. Full season will be finished in America just over a week. (I'm not too bothered really as there's footy, Prison Break and The Wire for me tonight ). Big fan of Prison Break too. Altough Season 4 has no where been as good as 1-3. As for the show I'm finding it's back on the up again with this Doomsday storyline. Totally agree. Best episode of the season thus far is No.20, which you have to look forward too. Season 7 was a bit weak, but the new produces have taken the show back to it's prime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 It was brilliant. Considering we are 8 seasons in the story lines are top notch. Sorry but this series really does bite the big one, utter garbage and I am a self confessed Smallville fan I will admit that the last ep does show promise but you know they are going to end it on a cliffhanger then explain it away in 5 mins of the first episode of the new series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted May 6, 2009 Author Share Posted May 6, 2009 Smallville is my little guilty pleasure....shhh. I won't tell.. Sorry but this series really does bite the big one, utter garbage and I am a self confessed Smallville fan : Suprised to hear that mate. New producers and writer, maybe the new approach isn't to your liking? did you not enjoy no.20? have you seen it? I will admit that the last ep does show promise but you know they are going to end it on a cliffhanger then explain it away in 5 mins of the first episode of the new series That usually is always a let down with the season openers. But i have sneeky feeling this one will be different, or at least not as much as a let down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
