Definitely the BIGGEST piece of crap smallville season finale EVER. in fact much of season 8 was totally forgettable. and yes, its hardly smallville anymore, they should change the name to Metropolis since everyone spends most of their time there now.
And to Angie… I don’t think you have to please everyone as a journo, just tell it like it is, the Truth is the truth, and the truth is Doomsday was terrible PIECE of CRAP.
and if some people get to offended by the facts , well thats their problem, or sad obsession with a TV show Your review was spot on, where the hell did Jimmy broke ass Olsen get the cash to buy that apartment ?, these writers need to wake up and get their continuity sorted out

I was really hoping to see clark and lois togeather finally but from a preveiw I found looks like its going to happen somewhere in season 9. Rather than that I loved all the seasons and cant wait for season 9 to get started this wekkend.

The 8th season was mainly about Clark, Chloe, and Davis more so than Clark and Lois. The season finale left me feeling disappointed and Jimmy was killed off with a twist – he wasn’t the real Jimmy Olsen. It seems that the writers and producers didn’t put enough energies into the rest of the season after the Lana arc. Doomsday seemed as if they were getting rid of the impediments of the show.
Peterson and Souders are good with season premieres, but not the season finales.

I have seen every episode of smallville and this was by far the most, almost , disappointing. I agree there needed to be more Clark and Doomsday. I guess there was to much to cram in one show. I have been watching for less than 2 months and finished all episodes in that time and almost caught the finale when it aired. I can’t believe I never watched smallville. I love it.

well let’s just hope that the next season will be great .. and can i ask a question ? .. they said that two characters will die in the finale a male and a female ? .. well jimmy will probably be the male .. but who’s the female? .. Tess Mercer? .. Lois didn’t die she just teleported to the future .. I really don’t get it !! ..

I get what Angie is saying. It did not disappoint at some point but overall if you think about it, it was crap.

It did not disappoint mainly because of the twist about Jimmy Olsen, although that can be seen as crap too because of the fact that they led us to believe that it was the real Jimmy Olsen.

Anyway, this review can’t really please everyone but Angie did a good job putting the pros and cons of the episode.

I guess, she meant with it did not disappoint was that the finale was still a good fun despite how crappy it was.

Yes, Dollhouse and Supernatural had better finales.

I agree complete dud.I thought it was going to be jimmy.Why because in anything to do with superman jimmy is always younger than clark ,Here they were about the same age.These writer are also taking a lot of libertys with this show.And you are right clark is the show.I am also woundering when they are going to wipe loislanes mind so in the future she doesn’t no she has been to smallville or even met clark.AND SMALLVILLE is supposed to be about clark growing uo and he looks like a man to me.So if they want to continue they might want to rename the show smallville the new adventures of SUPERMAN…

Ok, Glen. I know this episode was a huge piece of crap as noted by the 3.16 rating it received, by far the worst in Smallville history of finales. But here is the thing, if I go all negative nilly and say what I really want to say I am crucified and if I sugar coat it, yet again I’m on the cross. So, I walk that thin line that all journalist do: the inability to please everyone all the time. It is all a matter of opinion and I try to make everyone happy. I failed you and for that I apologize. This show was horrendous no matter how you slice it.

Angie, I’ll refrain from being cold because this is apparently a smallville site so yes there is reason to be biased. However, this finale is the worse Smallville finale ever. In fact, Dollhouse’s finale was better than this piece of dog crap.

How can you say Smallville did not disappoint? Are you serious? Come on. Call a spade a spade.
