Nope, they don't re-air the new eps anymore. Chances are you'll have to wait till the season is over and they start repeating them from the beginning.. seriously.

ABC's Smallville is old eps... really old eps.

Missed last thursdays episode, they re-showing it any time? I know i've seen Smallville on ABC family before but it might just be previous seasons.

No word on a repeat. They don't start showing the current season in syndication until the season is fully over.

Of course, you could just download it.

Season 4 was cool, i think the only episode which was bad , was that witch episode. That was stupid and strange, other then that, i say all of them was cool.

There was certainly more than that...what about that terrible episode with the super aging baby that Clark and Lana found. That was some seriously bad writing. Man.

Chloe was a character created for the show. After the show took off, DC said they were going to introduce her in the comic book series, but I don't know if that ever happened.

It's there a Crisis reset coming soon? Maybe we'll suddenly see a major character named Chloe pop up.

The 4th season is just the worst. Hands down. They tried to do a good season long arc and they were both fucking boring as shit. Nothing fit together, nothing flowed well, and the one storyline they DID have that was good: Clark dating that girl who could teleport.. They killed her off in the second episode. That should have gone on 3 or 4 more episodes, and at the end have Chloe find out about Clark (then the whole "Clark doesn't know that Chloe knows" shit wouldn't have seem nearly as dragged out as it was).

The fucking WORST part was that that girl was fucking killed AND THEY NEVER MENTIONED HER NAME AGAIN IN THE SEASON. Holy shit, the next episode was about Clark playing football and ended with a Simple Plan song playing in the background. Not even a HINT of Clark being sad at what happened only A WEEK OR TWO EARLIER.

They need to take some hints from the brilliant writing staff that Angel had. When things happen, there are consequences and changes in people's personalities. Smallville's writers last year didn't have a fucking clue about that.

But again, this year looks to have a lot of potential, to hopefully make up for the horrible storyline of last season. I'm hoping by the end of the season, Lana knows Clark's secret, Chloe is ALIVE, and maybe bring Pete back. Surround Clark with a group of friends that help him and share his secret. That would make things MUCH more interesting than hiding it for yet another year from his friends.

Assuming Smallville stays on for the next 2 years, what kind of storys do you think would be good, I mean Clarks already of his powers, he has the fortress of solitude, and Lana and he most likely will hook up. What else is there?

Chloe dies after inhaling an ancient god-like demon which guts her from the inside out and and burns her soul in its rebirth. This demigod then tries to resurrect its army, which is conveniently buried beneath the Kents' farmhouse. After finding her armies turned to dust, she becomes despondent and turns to Clark, Lex, Lana and Brainiac to find a new purpose in life. She beats the ever-loving shit out of Brainiac on a regular basis for "training purposes". Then they cancel the show after something awesome happens.

I somehow missed the commercials about the premiere (I'm assuming there were a bunch), so I missed seeing it on Thursday. I dled and watched it today, though, and it was an awesome episode. I really, really enjoyed it. I love when they advance the Superman plotline, as opposed to the usual freak-of-the-week episodes.

I had no clue who the guy at the end was until I checked online; I'm assuming it's apparent to those familiar with the original comics, though?

Shit, this sounds familiar somehow?
