If you actually watch the show, the women are just as badass and equal to the men and they do have a woman on the team…a few, actually, as the show moves forward. Each gender on the show treats each other equally. You wanna see some great fight scenes? As the characters get established and the storyline moves forward, the women throw down in this show…each of them do and they are some of the best female fight scenes I’ve seen on tv. It’s one of the few examples where this is the case in tv/cinema.

To this day, I still look fondly back at Smallville. I've seen the entire series 3 times over now, and have embraced their story choices and design choices, which weren't great. I was 13 when this aired, so I was completely blind to the company details behind certain choices, like, why Impulse, "when's Batman?", "why didn't Martian Munhunter join them?" he first appeared 3 episodes ago, and "why Cyborg, why isn't he with the Titans?" Finding most of those answers years later proved that this show was a miracle with those restrictions.

I honestly think the first 3 seasons were good; not any individual episode necessarily, but as a whole, the first 3 seasons hold up well enough. But then the show was successful, they kept going instead of wrapping up the story in 4 seasons, so they just spun their wheels for, what, 5 more seasons? I think the 4th season actually had a lot of fun episodes, but the 5th season really started to show the cracks. What they SHOULD have done was lift the "no tights, no flights" restriction once the show got picked up for more and more seasons. I think the problems with the show are largely a result of keeping those restrictions that could've worked for 4 seasons or so, but not 8. (Or however many it was; I think 8 but I'm not going to look it up.) I mean, there were other problems, of course, but for its time, it was fine except for stubbornly sticking to the original conceit despite doubling the show's length.

I watched smallville first time in 2016 after watchin Arrowverse ,I still think Smallville is still the best superhero DC show ever made. Acting ,Script ,Music ,even the 10 year old graphics everything blend superbly in one show

I love the idea of a speedster wearing a hood. Sooo aerodynamic!

Maybe I'm dumb but I love the costume design in this series. Yes it looks cheap but I just love how cheesy they look

Silver Age Barry's your guy for a speedster who's really laid back

Whenever I see anything about SmallVille i got severe nostalgia

Anybody else lip screaming when the Smallville theme blasts for that split second?

RIP to the Famous Jett Jackson. Sad the show got no mention.

I’m always down for more Smallville. You should watch every season premiere and finale and then do a video on that.

It's hard liking the costumes in smallville after seeing the arrowverse costumes and the other dc shows costumes.

I thought Lee Thompson was great as Cyborg and great in general, and I've often wished he had been chosen for the roll of Pete Ross.

A bionicle reference?! Man Ben's references are out of control. Everybody agrees

I haven't seen this series in years. I recall it being pretty good but I'll have to rewatch it.

Ha! Nice!

Lol I was so amazed back in the day when cyborg was running through the corridor and just bodychecks the guy in slow motion with a shockwave going through the air

"No tights no flights" always sounded conditional to me. No tights no flights until he's actively being Superman. But the show ran long enough that he was basically Superman for the last few seasons. And by then it felt like "no tights no flights" wasn't a story device anymore, it was just an awkward barrier to write around.

Oh my god, the bionicle clip from those little cds that came in the tubes.

I reckon Absolute Justice is a pretty good one. I'd love to see you guys come back to do more Smallville.

Blimey, so happy you're covering the TRUE Justice League from the hit TV show "Maclunkeyville: Superman's Young and Super in This One"

Whoever was editing this, they implanted in my head the idea of Jake Johnson as a speedster, and I want it

I met John Glover (Lionel Luthor) at a comic con a few years ago. Awesomely nice dude and he actually started feeling me up as I was posing for my picture with him, best day of my life!

The first few seasons are really great. No better live action Lex till date

I remember being SO hyped for this episode. And that 'slo-mo as they walked away from an explosion' shot is *chef's kiss*

"...Justice sounds like Just Us..." Funny you should mention that. In 1996 The Monkees reunited and released an album called "Justus" which clearly meant they played all the instruments and produced the project themselves; just them without outside help. It was significant because in their Heyday during the 60s The Monkees got a lot of flak about not playing their own instruments on their records.

This is one of the best edited videos you guys have put out.

I loved Smallville growing up Still got a crush on young Tom Welling

I really really wish they would have used Mason’s audio of “SOMEBODY SAAAAAAAAAAAVE ME” from one of the first episodes of WP before they had a theme song.

You should do the JSA episode its a good set up for the lore of the smallville universe

Yes it was super cheesy at times but I still love the series. It's just so comfy. Erica Durance and Michael Rosenbaum are the best Lois and Lex of all imo.

Comfy , cozy and oddly relaxing. I don't know if it's the show itself or that most of us have our nostalgia glasses on where we remember days that we had less worries. But then again i faintly remember the show watching it on tv when i was young in the late 2010s, so maybe the show has these comfy vibes on its own because of the small town setting. Wow i started rumbling again nostalgia can be a bitch sometimes. Cheers

@@redhairedshanks5845 I actually think that a lot of the comfyness comes from the fact that alot of the show is set during the day. Compared to stuff like the modern CW DC shows that mostly seem to be at night. Plus the way they lit the show gave everything this soap opera-esc glow that just makes it feel warm.

I'll always thank this show for introducing me to Sam Witwer

This was the original "we can't use batman so give them green arrow. " Also pls pls do that other smallville episode!

Tom Welling is my favorite live action casting as Clark. All the casting like his parents and Lois are spot on too. When they do the Blur stuff in later seasons he isn't a great Superman though.

This show was phenomenal, grew up with it and will always love it

Superman with no mention of bad bloke Brando? Smallville with no mention of terrible person Allison Mack? Are you guys going soft?

Thank you Ben, the miraculous ladybug edits get me every time

Literally the catalyst of the podcast. This series' iconic opening song, and talking about Batman v Superman.
