"Smallville" was a show that I feel premiered when the golden age of The WB (sadly its called The CW now) was coming to a close, and was really the only good show that was left on the channel. I'm also a charmed fan, but after Shannen Doherty's departure, Charmed went downhill, (and since Veronica Mars didn't come till later that can't be included in the golden era) so I was excited about this show and was very pleased with it.
Its easy to see why "Smallville" drew in the largest audience ever on The WB when it premiered. (I'm not sure if it still holds that title but I know that it did at one time)
It tells the story of Clark Kent aka Superman, during his teenage years, living in the small town of Smallville, and shows how he struggles between trying to fit in at his high school (he's not exactly part of the in crowd), deal with his super powers and making sure no one finds out his secret, and of course theres his long time crush Lana Lang (played by the beautiful Kristin Kreuk) who he longs to be with. You also get to see a friendship form between him and his future enemy, Lex Luthor (played by Michael Rosenbaum) after Clark saves his life.
This show does a good job of being a teen drama mixed with sci-fi (although during the first few seasons, its more of a teen drama. It gets more sci-fi during the later seasons I believe)
The only problem with this season is that it seems that during every episode, some random kid is gaining superhuman abilities after being infected by a meteor rock. But beside that....great show! The best part about this season is the season finale, which will leave you dying to see season 2! (which is another great season by the way)
Unfortunately, I can't give you a review on the entire series overall so far, as I am not up-to-date with the current seasons. But its not due to lack of interest! I watched up until mid-season 3, and then I ended up missing a few episodes and before I knew it, I had missed the rest of season 3, along with the entirety of season 4! So I figure now there's no point in trying to catch up since I've now missed several seasons, and instead just planning on purchasing all the seasons on DVD.
Bottom line: if you have not yet see this show, I strongly urge you to purchase this season!

I found this series to be a very entertaining and enjoyable show of the early days of Clark Kent before becoming the famous Superman. I do have to say that the way they did the character of Lana Lang was a little annoying. My personal view of the shows Lana is she is superficial almost to the seventh season and I was always rooting for the character of Chloe to become Clark's true love in the show even though that never happened. I thought the actors they got for the characters of the show were well done especially for Lex Luthor,Clark Kent,Martha Kent,John Kent,Chloe Sullivan,Lois Lane,Lionel Luthor,Peter Ross,and Lana Lang. The setting they got for Smallville is also incredible it seemed exactly like the comic version of the town. So I say to all fans of Superman if you like
to see the early years of his life in Smallville this series does the job
amazingly...

Ok, you don't need me to tell you how great this show is... but I will anyway. The acting is top notch, the plots are mind bending and the characters are completely 3 dimensional. The first season took about 3 episodes to get on it's feet... everything beyond that is history. You'll find yourself crazy to watch the next episode, each one more entertaining and pleasing to watch than the last. Not since "Star Trek: Voyager" have I enjoyed a show this much.
Oh, and by the way... While you're watching Season 1 you'll probably think, "this show can't get any better." Trust me, each season is a massive improvement over the last, you'll be blown away.
