General Smallville annoyances

[CaptainWacky]

Don't know which season it is (one on E4) so there might be spoilers but who gives a shit, it's Smallville.

- WHY did they introduce Supergirl as a regular character, put her in the opening credits, then hardly use her for the first few episodes, then have her lose her memory and disappear for six episodes?

- SO Lois is dating the ridiculously young new editor of the Daily Planet. Fine. I think they broke up but kept seeing each other in private or something. Fine. Oh and he's a clone of Lex's dead brother and Rex has him killed. Fine. But then, THE WEEK AFTER HE DIES, Green Arrow comes back and Lois is slutting up to him, with NO MENTION of the fact that her last boyfriend was brutally gunned down a week before. Yeah, that's gay.

- How come Chole looks cute as fuck some weeks and annorexic and tired others?

- WHY IS LANA STILL ALIVE?

See, we don't have these problems on Ugly Betty.

But Alan Dale was killed off, so it wouldn't be worth watching anyway.

 

[Tisiphone]

Smallville will never redeem itself.

 

[whisky]

What if it hired Alan Dale?

 

[CaptainWacky]

Alan Dale as Doomsday?

 

[whisky]

Alan Dale as Zod, proper Zod, not just Lex dressed in black.

See, we don't have these problems on Ugly Betty.

Betty's at home before leaving for work. The gay kid's doing something gay, while her sorta slutty sister is being slutty and wearing humongous earings. The dad's making some unpronounceable Mexican food which sounds yummy.

Cut to work.

Betty bumps into her cute geeky on/off boyfriend. They arrange a date. HOW CUTE! Meanwhile, Daniel's fucked something up and needs Betty to fix it. She promises to fix it and gets to work, but things are complicated when:

a) Betty's slutty hoop earing sister is involved
b) the gay guy and Vanessa Williams fuck things up more
c) fixing Daniel's fuck up means Betty will miss her date

Finally Betty breaks down and confesses to Daniel that she can't fix his fuck up. She learns an important lesson; she can't solve all the world's problems. Daniel learns an important lesson; he must solve his own problems instead of relying on Betty.

Daniel then fixes the problem by pulling some strings, Lex Luthor style, as Vanessa Williams seethes (stage left). Betty goes to her CUTE date. The end.

Now on DVD!

 

[Gagh]

See, we don't have these problems on Ugly Betty.

How cool would it be if they did? One week, with no warning or explanation, Ugly Betty goes Jack Bauer, as Betty brutally tortures an elderly man & guns down some fashion models. Then next week, they carry on without any reference to that episode, as if it never happened.

In other words: an episode of Voyager.

Have you seen Season 2? They shook up the formula quite a bit...

 

[CaptainWacky]

Yeah, in one episode, Betty wore a hat!

 

[Tisiphone]

Is she still wearing the poncho?

 

[Fuddlemiff]

I haven't seen season two, no. But season one episodes were all like that, so I often stopped watching halfway through them.

Alan Dale dies in season two SPOILERS LOL.
