Feels like your suffocating. He was probably fed up , angry , distressed and sad yet he did try to be tough and not show anyone how he really feels. You feel like you don't need anyone and that your going to be fine but when your friends or your family comfort you then you finally break down and that's probably a relief. Clark always tries to be tough...

I felt the exact same way when my mom died 2 years ago. It's virtually impossible to not cry my eyes out whenever I watch this scene.

And this my friends is one of the reasons smallville aired for 10 seasons! Loved this show

This scene always makes me cry even though smallville finish nothing can beat this tv series. 😢

I think I was about 16 or 17 years old when I watching this exact episode . this was the first time I ever cried during a Smallville episode . I felt instantly overwhelmed by sadness because it felt like Jonathan Kent was a father figure to all of us watching smallville , We all grew up with him from the very beginning of season 1 helping Clark grow into the man that he was . Especially when I seen Clark break and show that much emotion . I instantly broke and the tears were rolling HARD man lol Smallville will forever be a massive part of my childhood 🙌

This scene made me bawl and it’s still to this day one of the most emotional scenes in smallville maybe in tv shows history.

I wished he lived too. I wished they'd kept hom alive like in Lous and Clark:TNAOS. John Schneider was by far the best version of thr character imo. It's a shame he wasn't on it longer. Wasn't the same without him. And Clark felt his absence that whole time right up to the last season. I know the whole thing is his dad had to die for Clark to grow up and become the man and superhero he was to become but really...😢

I still get 😢 every time I see that.

I haven't seen this in a very long time. My father died in August of last year and when seeing this it brought me to tears 😢 😢

Bye bye he looks into the camera and it breaks my heart how many people Clark lost his little brother Ryan well Ryan and Jonathan are having fun and watching Clark become the man he was raised to be

Amazing they captured the love of Jonathan Kent to his family. I was drawn to this show and i new one day his time would come but I still miss the family they were in the beginning it's amazing how he was probably the best John Kent Im rewatching the series I'm on season 9 part of me can't wait the other part thinks wow I can't believe I have a season and half left such a great show tv does not feel this good but there are gems in every time period of shows

I shed good bit of tears in this scene. It was really emotional as was watching the video with Martha and him wearing the watch. Seeing the tears fall on his cheeks really was sad to see as well as his mom getting really emotional

I asked for smallville for my 15th birthday during my freshman year of high school i took it slow got season 5 for my 17th brithday i looked up and got real advice from pa kent saw him as my real father cause mine was so disappointing. When i got to his death it broke me im on season 7 now just saw 7x16 made me real sad too not as much as this nowhere near as much as pa kent I'm going into my senior year soon, but i do know pa kent has a pretty big role in season 10 so im pumped for that. This show is very special gave me a father when i couldnt find one cheered me up when i was down, when pa kent would smile id smile with him. It might be pathetic but i really miss my pa

I still remember the statement John Schneider put after he left the show,because people myself included were Generally Worried About Him.He said Don't Worry I'll Be Ok,I remember reading that and feeling a little better.Thank God He Came Back For Guest Appearances And Most Important Of All,THE SERIES FINALE...

I remember getting teary eyed myself watching this scene for the first time. Really connected Clark because I had lost my grandfather Harold, not to long before this. I remember crying just as much as Clark and feeling the same way a day or two after he passed. It never is Truly something you get over the death of a loved one. Especially someone you looked up to and respected your whole life. I still miss my grandfather, even though I have all the memories with him from over the years. And I know I will see him again one day. Clark was the same way, missing Jonathon even with having all their memories together. Sometimes you just can't help yourself, the grief is just to much. Love Truly is a beautiful thing. Especially love for family and friends. They certainly make us who we are. And so does what we share with them and they with us. One of the greatest lessons that Smallville taught.😀🙏

And now my godmother just passed away at the beginning of this year on January now I don't know what else to think when she's not around anymore either but I'm really gonna miss her too I feel like now I'm losing everyone in my family one by one, that's what's making me cry by watching this scene because I'm really gonna miss the good old times when me and my family were with them.

Are you sure he never did? I'm assuming you mean the comics. I thought they changed it when they did a reboot. Maybe in the 80s which Lois and Clark: TNAOS is based on they decided to keep him alive. I thought in golden or maybe silver age whenever the 1st gave Clark an origin story Jonathan was dead. He was in The Adventures of Suoerman or whatever TV show from the 50s. As a side note, I wish they hadn't have killed him off regardless.

Jonathan Kent sadly dies when Clark is still a teen in the majority of the live-action adaptations. I can’t say for sure about the comics, because the lore changed constantly throughout the decades - but the idea of Jonathan dying was pretty much baked into canon by the 1978 movie, if not before.

@knightman718

10 ай бұрын

Jonathan was alive post-Crisis starting with the 1986 Man of Steel limited series when Superman's origins were changed and he helped revive Superman after the battle with Doomsday when his body was in a deep coma (he never really died). Around 2008 they did kill him in the comics again in a story where Brainiac attacks the yellow sun so he was still alive in the comics when they killed him off in Smallville.
