If one can see this as a story of Superman the teenage years in a parallel world this is not that bad, but be ready for a lot of liberties with the source material. It has some memorable cliffhangers where the stakes are high up in the air and a few good superhero moments but mostly this is a teenage angst show where Clark Kent ponder over his own path in life. Excellent co-stars make up a lot for a bland hero and sexy girls in skimpy outfits (help out) to keep things interesting. Any story with the villainous Luthor family seem to be the most memorable. While the show usually has one great idea and a lot of big potential the writers lack will to execute and make it really good. The series should also have ended a few seasons earlier as seeing Tom Welling play a teenager when he started to get close to his 40s is laughable. Keep in mind that some of the episodes end anti-climatic with a fight that is over in seconds. Still, it is a fun little show but it is hard to love Allison Mack these days with her cute helpful smile these days, isn't it?
