Wow, we see this show through completely different eyes, I think! I love reading your thoughts on the episode, and I'm a bit inspired by the way you find joy in aspects that made me want to bang my head against the wall. I became so bitter in S6 and S7 about the stalling effect the Clana relationship had on Clark, that I find myself with an anti-Lana bias I'm trying desperately to shake. Your perspective helps a lot. And I'm glad Lois doesn't come back until Lana's storyline is finished. I don't trust the show to handle that well at all.
I actually thought Allison was great, especially because she looked like she was having a blast. I'll admit I didn't find her to be consistent with JM's Brainiac, but I still had fun watching her.
I loved the Legion. I've been steeping myself in Geoff Johns' comic book stories over the hiatus, and he gave them a seamless transition to the TV screen with this script. It was a thrill to see them come to life, and I was charmed by all three of them, especially Ryan Kennedy's Rokk.
I'm so new around here I think this may be the first Smallville review of yours I've read. Thanks for turning my perspective on the show on its head, you've given me a lot to think about.
