Product: Smallville: The Complete Ninth Season (2009)
Rating: 5.0
One of the best season of "Smallville."
Clark finally becomes a man, or should I say a Superman. He no longer hates himself or his powers, he no longer whines, and best of all. Lana is past tense. Lois is his woman now. Tom and Erica are freaking awesome together! I've loved their banter since she showed up 6 seasons ago. Clark is no longer awkward, he's sexy, and he knows what he wants. Yeah, he's still the Clark Kent we all know and love, he's just more mature now. Yeah, we all have our opinions, but if you dislike S9, you dislike Clark Kent/Superman. I say that because Clark never whined like he did in all the other seasons of SV. He never hesitated about saving the world, he was never ashamed of himself or his powers, he never sat on his ass while everyone and their dog did something with their lives. Look, I love SV to death, and I can understand his behavior in the early years, but after HS that behavior should have ended. Let the character grow. It was getting ridiculous when he continued that same behavior in seasons 5, 6 and 7. Hell, every trace of S7 should be burned! Okay, there are some good episodes : )S10 isn't finished yet. Seasons 2, 3, 4, 8, 9 and 10 will forever be my favorite seasons. Yeah, 8 made some huge mistakes. B&K; had to figure things out. But this is where Clark's character takes a turn for the better. Along with TPTB. I love to pretend those Lana episodes never happened. "Legion" is awesome if you ignore Lana. Failsday was lame too. I'm going to miss SV. It's the last primetime show I truly cared about. : (
