How much nakedness was there? So much! I counted several partially-nude scenes, including 2 with “abby” (bring her back!), 1 with Lois, several in the boys’ locker room, and… I could swear I remember one with Lana, but that could be my overactive imagination. A wag with whom I watch the show decided that “WB” stands for “We’re Bare.” I think it stands for “Wanton Boobage,” because even when the starlets are covered up, those cameramen are being naughty. Not that I’m complaining – the nudity has added a frisson of sexiness to a show that was already a guilty pleasure for me. I think all of the shows in which they used to have a truck or tractor explode, they’ve replaced the effects shot with a sex scene. The Smallville sherriff is plumb consternated about the whole thing.
All of that said, can I get a few opinions here?
[spoiler]So Lois Lane failed high school in Metropolis, hm?
And a famous college football player from Metropolis doesn’t ring a bell with Lex Luthor except that Lex knows of his dad’s law practice?
And Clark, who has promised not to cheat or use his powers playing football, has already thrown a pass that knocked over one of his teammates?
[/spoiler]
The little reality checks don’t bug me, although I would appreciate it if they didn’t decide to wrap up all the loose ends during the last commercial (instead of just afterward). We come back from the break and Lana’s fine again, nobody bothered to ask her what she thought about Abby kissing her, and all the right bad people end up in jail… it’s all a little too clean.
Oh, and the whole bit right before the credits where Lois and Clark have a “moment” and Chloe looks wistful and bitter – why doesn’t that girl take what’s CLEARLY hers?
