A Week Later

Now that the Smallville finale has aired and I've watched it a few times already, I can finally give my honest review on it without too many emotions getting involved.  "Finale" was one of the better episodes of the season, but it wasn't the strongest.  The first hour was a little slow but the finale really picked up in the second hour when Apokolips is plummeting towards Earth.

The Good

• The final twenty minutes or so, when Clark has finally donned the Superman outfit.  Not much more needs to be said about those iconic moments.
• The two moments where Clark and Lex relive the moments from the past 10 seasons.
• The Clark-Oliver fight and Clark saving Oliver from Darkseid's hold.
• Aaron Ashmore returning as JIMMY OLSEN!!!
• The scenes with Clark, Martha, and Jonathan
• John Schneider returning as Jonathan Kent
• The Clark-Lex scenes. Duh.

The Bad

• Darkseid. He was supposed to be the big bad of the season. Grrrr....so much could have been done. But that rant is not for this post
• Lionel's beard. He looked like he had been abandoned at sea for months and hadn't saved.
• Tom not wearing the suit.

Other Feelings

• Sadness-Tess dying, even though I knew that it was coming at some point
• Confusion- How the hell did Oliver get rid of Granny, Godfrey, and Desaad with just his arrows?
• Near tears- Clark and Lois reading their vows outside/inside their apartment

Overall, I think that this was a great series finale, even though a few aspects could have been better. But this was a great ender for a great 10 year run.  Though I came on during the sixth season, I went along for the ride as others did before me. And it was fun. But not as much fun as this week is going to be on the RandomBlog. This week will be the "Best of Smallville" week and I will be going over the best episodes, the worst episodes, the best storylines, the best characters, and a few more things. It's gonna be a fun week so buckle up. Also, I have a few posts to post likea few 10 Things posts that will eventually get posted maybe this week.

The Blog's back and operational after another disappearance by me. See you tomorrow.
