Anyone watch the season premier? The Fortress of Solitude is established, the Phantom Zone makes an appearence (though as an unnamed prison, never referred to as the Phantom Zone), and Zod and his "disciples" show up.
My only critisism is that the "final battle" that the show leads up to is very quick...too quick.

He told Jor-El that he would return to the fortress of solitude to "continue his education" before sundown. When he found Lana in the Luthor mansion he made the decision to get her to a hospital rather than go back. So, I guess Jor-El just stripped him of his powers. Sort of a Kryptionian "time out."
Basically, it mirrored the movie where he chose being with Lois over being Superman. I wonder if he'll somehow have to renounce his humanity in order to save the world from Zod, just as he did in the movie.

Ahhh....I did notice that his outfit (red jacket, etc) closely matched the original movie.
I cracked up near the end of the show when Pa kent told martha that they have a 1-man construction crew to rebuild their house. Then Clark announces he has no powers and their expressions went blank and then switched over to a lecture about how he could get hurt.
To me they seemed kinda bummed fer selfish reasons...not that its a bad thing.
Cark has always worn primary colors--blue shirt, red jacket, etc...
It was interesting that they had him in a plain white T at the end of the show. I don't think they've ever done that.
And, yeah, I thought the same thing about Pa Kent's reaction. It's like the kid just can't win--"keep your powers to yourself," "don't use your powers in public," ""you used your powers WHERE?!"
...and then the minute he's 'normal' its: "What? You lost your powers?"
"Yeah dad, I think it's a blessing."
"Oh, crap! I'm going to have to hire some farm hands."

Last night's premiere was the best episode in a while, IMO. I think the quality has progessively dropped since the first season. I hope Clark going to college reinvigoratees the show.

I don't think season 1 is as good as most of the sunsequent seasons. I like that it's building on itself now, where in the first season it seemed it was much more a seaosn of stand alone episodes.
There was a lull there for a few episodes, I'll give you that. But, for the most part, I really like the sort of "reverse intreauge" that's going on--you know how Clark, Lex and Lois end up...you just don't know how.

They've used the white shirt only on rare occasions, usually to emphasize Clark's human qualities. After the whole Kal-El thing, he showed up in white, and I beleive the loft scene where he's greiving over Alicia, I think he wore white then as well. Usually it's the standard red or blue, he'll wear black when either Kal or Kal-El is dominant. Loved the new intro, its about time they changed it. Here's a clip of the new intro http://homepage.mac.com/marieski/Kry...Theater98.html

Okay...this is my second time watching the show...the blockbuster down the road doesn't carry the past seasons so please be patient..btw...if I say anything thats a spoiler...sorry.
...who is Chloe Sullivan? Is this a made up character by WB? She's cute btw.
...so far this is the second episode where we're reminded about Pa Kents heart problems and he gets his butt kicked again...is this like a regular occurrence?
...Why do I have a feeling that Clark knocked up Lana?

Chloe is just a friend, people used to think she'd turn out to be Lois Lane later, but we find out her COUSIN is Lois Lane. Lois was there last season, and in the last episode...
Pa Kents heart problems are somewhat related to Jor El, and how Kent gave up something in order to save Clark...I'm not sure about all that.
Clark DID NOT knock up Lana

Okay...Clark has his powers back...I recken it would have been a stretch to have the series continue on with Chloe doing all the work. Pa kent survived a show without getting beat up.
I don't understand the relationship with lex's dad and the Jor'el thing...I know it must have been covered last season - but how did that get set up?
Too bad the gun shot didn't leave a scar on Clark...I hear chicks dig that sort of thing.

Lol, maybe she is now...super baby.
No idea what happened to Lex's dad last season...I completely forgot about what happened...
