'Smallville' exclusive: Find out why they killed %$#@#

While I wasn’t really expecting it, I thought there was a strong possibility of it when they started having Jimmy do drugs the last several episodes. I assumed that was the writers way to have the audience detach themselves from Jimmy and not like him as much.
I am interested to see what happens with Lois. I’m guessing she was sent to the future. Might be a good Season 9 opener.

Interesting twist, and one way to keep us from suspecting it’d be “Jimmy” dying. I was half-expecting a reload when Lois time-traveled (I assumed) and to remove Jimmy knowing Clark’s secret.
That said, I guess we have our storylines for next season. With Lois, what happens when she returns from whenever she ended up? With Chloe, does she get the League back together now that she’s more Oracle-like than ever, and how long til we suspect she dies again? With Doomsday…yeah, quick fight kills him, don’t think so, expect a rematch. With the orb/Kandor, I’m guessing they’re followers of Zod.
Which leads into Clark, who will get to see a Kryptonian civilization I’m guessing, while attempting to purge his humanity. He’s been so over on the human side, and we saw the pure Kryptonian Clark once, so how does Clark find the balance? Without that, he can’t be Superman, so I imagine that discovery will be throughout season 9.

It sucks that they did this to Ashmore. For years, they told him he was Jimmy Olsen. This “twist” was cheap and poorly executed. The whole season finale basically threw out the past 10 episodes — very poorly written.
I’ve been a fan of SV since the pilot, but they lost me as a viewer. I’m not coming back in S9 to see more of this drivel and to see more Chloe Sullivan’s character suck the soul out of the Superman mythos.

Fine, the little brother is Jimmy.. but what about the ridiculous age difference between him and Lois now? It’s WAY too big. It doesn’t match up.
This is a very lazy way around the mythos. It only would have been worse if the entire show was Clark’s dream as a 5 year old boy. LAME. I’m glad I stopped watching this crap last season.

Aaron was one of the best actor’s on the show. I’m really gonna miss that guy. His exit and his brother’s intro was creative, and I agree it works well for the story, but at the end of the day, I’LL MISS YOU, MR. ASHMORE!!!

The Doomsday fight was anti-climactic. The writer’s have been building up for the fight between the 2 Kryptonians all season, and we get a fight that lasts 20 seconds? And not even a fight?! Doomsday looked cheap! The entire story after Lois vs Tess was RUSH RUSH RUSH RUSH RUSHED!
And that said, what good is teasing ZOD’s return knowing that the writers are not going to deliver on a showdown between the villain and Clark, as proven with the Clark vs Doomsday story. FAIL.

That episode was…wow. Talk about incoherent. It jumped from plot point to plot point without actually resolving the one before, everyone’s acting was below par, and after an entire season’s build up for a knock down drag out fight between Clark and Doomsday, their meeting it was the most anti-climactic scene of the whole series. I’ve always thought Smallville was an extremely flawed, but still very entertaining show, but this episode was just plain poor. What a let down.
