Smallville is dead as a doornail on Thursdays. Ratings had already plummeted as it was dead last in its timeslot on Wednesdays every week. Against Survivor and The OC, Superboy doesn't stand a chance. Good riddance.

Well seeing as how he's going to college I didn't really think they had a lot of places to go.
Besides, Evil Dr. Quinn AKA "Lana is a reincarnated witch" was kind of a sign that the tank was running low.
Not that I don't enjoy the show still (Lois is awesome) but maybe mercy killing the show in a death time slot is better than letting it decompose any more.
Oh, and fuck them for cancelling Jack and Bobby. | Torchslasher

You have GOT to be kidding me. It seems that Jane Leeves is just doing this little, one year project, before she is brought onto an existing and hopefully longer running show. | Dahak

Is Clark still on Smallville? I thought it was about how Lana Lang becomes a witch ninja because she is the "Chosen one". | Tribal Prophet
