Smallville

I'd assume most people are probably at least familiar with what this show is about, but just in case, I'll explain. Smallville is based on the DC Comics character Superman. Or more accurately, Clark Kent before he becomes Superman. Essentially the show has followed Clark from his mid-teens in high school to today where he now works as a reporter for the Daily Planet and all the struggles in between. That said, this is it for the show. After ten years, and ten seasons, meeting different superheroes such as (the future) Flash, Green Arrow, Black Canary, and the Legion of Superheroes, the show is finally coming to an end (in 2011 according to IMDb). Clark will finally become Superman. I'm bittersweet about it myself. On one hand, I'm glad because it's due time for Clark to become Superman and I don't want the show to just drag on. I even remember at one point years ago hearing that they had initially planned on only going five seasons. But on the other hand, as a fan I am sad to see it go because it's one of the only shows I watch anymore and even then I haven't watched too consistently lately. I remember this just how I was when Monk ended, bother eager to actually see the finale but hating too at the same time because I enjoy the show so much and that means it's finally over. Believe it or not, I actually didn't realize this was supposed to be the final season until maybe earlier this month (I was kind of out of the loop for a while, I think). Anyway, is snyone here a fan of Smallville? Do you wish the show was coming back or are you glad (as much as one can be when you're a fan anyway) it's bowing out this season? However you feel, I think ten seasons is great for any show. Many don't get anywhere near that.
