He's not Superman, he's Clark Kent. I've been watching since day one also. I get tired of seeing people comment the same as you. We know who he becomes, no ones ever explored how he becomes Superman. Yet you want him to fly, if he did the shows over. Once he takes flight he no longer retains his humanity. How hard is it to comprehend this. Btw, the no flight no tights rule came from the old producers. Season 9 & 10 have ignored this with the new producers.
    Oh yeah he is in his mid 20s to late 20s in the show now so he would be superman by age not superboy.

      As for your second comment I know the original producers set it up the way they did and I liked it that way and agreed with it but after season 7 they really ran out of shit. The shows weren't that good, half the fans I know quit watching and these were people that love the show and never missed an episode. There becomes a point where you have no choice but to make him superman, lets not forget Clark Kent is the disguise he is always Superman. That's why the show has been on the verg of being cancelled for the last 2 years, they are losing their fan base. Bad writing and some people are just tired of the run around.
      "Clark Kent is who I am, Superman is who I can be." In the adventures of Lois and Clark this is what Clark says. I agree with this. He was born and raised Clark Kent to become superman. I think season 7 was a total mess due to the writers strike and Michael Rosenbaum not returning. They had two endings scripted because they weren't sure if they were going on to season 8 due to the strike.

      As far as ratings go, CW and Dawn Oestroff did that to the show. They had no sense in marketing this show for seasons 8-10. Gossip girl, 90210, the vampire diaries, one tree hill all had more promo spots than Smallville and supernatural combined. Then the executives at CW decided to give Smallville a Friday time slot. After season 7 the show did struggle with not knowing if they were going to get picked up. Their marketing totally screwed this show over.

        He still isn't superman until his 30's. Had the show ended during his highschool years then he would've been considered Superboy. In the comics Superboy began his career in Smallville. DC put a stop to any references due to legal issues with the scheuster family. You have to consider that this show was given too many restrictions as to what they could use from the Superman mythos. This series would be considered an AU or Elseworlds version of Superman.

          While the show is called Smallville, and not Superman, it's dumb IMO that he can't fly yet. Just makes no sense. He learned all of his other abilities a LONG time ago, which is why it seems the show hasn't progressed, and has become stale.

          Shit, he even has a Kyrptonian cousin that can fly, but even she can't teach him. Every other Kryptonian that has been on the show has flown. He can speak and read Kryptonian, visits the fortress of solitude, wears his family symbol, but somehow hasn't embraced his heritage yet? Lame.

              As a person who has been a comic book follower since he was a kid, I never got past season 1. I honestly didn't feel it was going to go anywhere.

              I just recently watched a newer episode where some kid was a mix of lex and Clark, Bizarro maybe? But it still really didn't do anything for me.

              The Lois Lane girl is hot though. i would knock her out and drag her home too.

                I think the premise of the show was great, a whole new angle on Superman. Clark Kent as a teenager, finding out he is different, discovering his abilities and learning to control them, and fitting in with his peers while being an "alien".

                I also loved the twist of him and Lex starting off as friends. I really enjoyed the first few seasons but then the show stalled.

                  That's why this show has been on for so long. You have him fly in Seasons1-4, the show is no longer called Smallville. The whole thing with him not flying is one of the biggest complaints from fans. Clark even said in one episode that the day he flies, he is no longer tied down to his humanity. He embraces his kryptonian heritage which terrifies him. The new writers are to blame for not furthering his progress. When they introduced Connor Kent people were going nuts and saying that if he flies before Clark they would no longer watch. Again the writers are at fault for this as are the producers. Realistically this show could've ended in season 7, take it down to basics the show would've ended in season 3-4. If that happened we wouldn't have been able to see him go through his struggle and journey to become the man we all know he will be. Imo, it doesn't bother me as much that he doesn't fly because he is not superman. The fact they're using Lois as the catalyst for him to take flight I do have a problem with. Hes embraced his heritage but not fully. Lois pushing him should not be the way. She is not the reason he flies in the comics.

                      Two more episodes left and then this series is over. Dominion last weeks was good. This week is Prophecy with the legion of doom. The final episode is a 2 hour send off. I'm stoked.

                        I'll probably tune in for the finale, or download it.

                            I haven't bought the dvds yet. I heard Friday's episode wasn't good. I hope I get off of work in time to watch the finale next week. I've invested 10 years into the show and its going to suck their won't be anything else on tv. The finale better be epic.

                                Erica Durance has some topless pics out there from some movie she did before she got this gig. They're decent.
