Lois & Clark Forums Forums General Discussion Off Topic Smallville -- Thirst (Spoiler warning)

I thought this was one of the cheesiest Smallville eps ever, but as an Angel fan, it was worth watching just to see James Marsters say, "There's no such thing as vampires."

The first thing I noticed is that they've finally corrected their typo in Kristin Kreuk's name in the intro. Dunno where I've picked that fact up, maybe at one of zoomway's synopsis.

The second thing was James Marsters talking about leaving footprints on the history of time or letting them be washed away - while seeing Lex walk up behind him. What a sign, not to speak about the great confrontation following and then in Lex' home. In my opinion, it's the first time I really saw him brooding.

Oh and another fine quote from Clark and Chloe, a glimpes in his future.

"Don't you think the cape is a little much?
"I kinda like it."

Sadly, that are my only useful comments on this episode - I even considered stopping the player a few times during the Lana scenes. Finally I was more or less glad that I kept watching, if only for the first appearance of the 'Brainiac' part of Professor Fine and Clark 'appearing' in Chloe's dormroom while they were on the phone. Cool Chloe's summary of this whole episode was nice and her final words about the planet were sweet, up up and away - I wish you the best, girl!

Loved everything having to do with the Daily Planet.

Hated everything having to do with Lana...especially the stuff about her feeling his "heart" while biting him. Barf-o-rama!

Oh, yes, the cape was great.

Yeah, this one goes down as one of the bottom ten. The only reason I didn't stop watching was because of James Marsters and Chloe. Best line of the week was James' "There's no such thing as vampires." Classic.

I'm very glad that TPTB are using Chloe the way that they are; that she's becoming a central character to the story rather than just someone who shows up every once in a while.

And I have to confess, I'm starting to see things the CC way. I'm starting to think that Chloe *is* Lois in pretty much every single way.

Well, you can't win them all.

Lynn

Yeah some websites even spell Chloe's name as CLOIS

Lana's dialogs were ridiculous.

Actually, that's more of a shipper-identification like Chlark, Clana, Clex etc.

I'm sorry, but everytime I read the name Clois it makes me think of the clone from that whole Wedding Arc in Season 3 of LnC! lol

She'll always be Clois to me.

Apparently I'm taking over CC's place in the world by having the opposite views of SV episodes as Lynn. I thought last week's was boring as all get out, while I thought this week's episode, though incredibly hoky, was quite enjoyable.

I think it might have something to do with the structure of the episode that made me enjoy it so much -- the fact that, even though the main characters were Lana and Clark, it was *Chloe's* story to tell. I adore Chloe. Just love her to pieces. She *is* Lois to me -- has always been Lois to me -- and this episode not just gave a little more proof of that, it seemed to treat it almost as an established fact.

Chloe is the brilliant, fun, and oh-so-adorable sidekick, and now she's also standing up for herself with the new editor of the Daily Planet. (And I can't be the only one who cheered when the editor shook her hand and said, "Welcome to the Daily Planet." Hmm, come to think of it, maybe Chloe is Clark. <vbg>)

The Lana-as-vampire-bimbo storyline was completely over the top, but since it was a special "Halloween episode", I do tend to a cut the show some slack. I wanted to gag at the part where Lana "felt the strength of his love" or whatever it was when she bit him ... but you gotta admit, seeing her knocked over the staircase to her "death" was kind of gratifiying.

Still, this episode had me laughing, even as I was rolling my eyes, and I am really enjoying the Prof. Fine character ... it's neat to see someone be a match for Lex in the "villain" department, especially when you know they are both bad, yet you can't help but almost root for each of them to win. (And was that black I saw Lex wearing? Or maybe the purple is just getting *really* dark, now that he is. )

I'll be curious to see next week's episode, with a half-naked Lois falling into Clark's arms, but I have a feeling it will only prove to me that ED and TW, as cute as they can be together, only have a mere fraction of the chemistry that AM and TW have.

I've said it before and I'll say it again ... Chloe is this universe's Lois!!

Kathy

P.S. Oh, yeah, and did anyone else notice the music video clips at the end of the episode? Even my husband mentioned that they looked just like the ones we do online. <bg>

Well if you want "over the top", how's this:

Chloe dies in the 100th episode, and so does Lionel. Each of them gets to possess a new body...so Chloe picks Lois, and Lionel picks Lex.

Their personalities merge....Lionel's dark side turns Lex into a 100% villain...Chloe's reporter self and excellent grades turns Lois into investigative-reporter mode. She goes back to college and really applies herself, wanting to carry on for her dead cousin.

Of course, the part of Chloe that knew that Clark was super --- somehow doesn't get inside of Lois. Not yet, anyway.

I'm going to give TPTB the benefit of the doubt and just say...it was a Halloween episode. Chloe used the name "Buffy Sanders" to protect the girl's real name.

There were some great moments with Brainiac and Lex.

Hopefully next week will give us a glimpse of the future investigative team of LnC.

i agree with loislane do make u want to ralph can't wait until next one
and kathy yeah it do look like the clips we do here cool huh?

That would make an interesting fanfic.

Yes, I guess it would, however I wouldn't know which board it could be posted on!

Probably a Smallville fanfic board, unless it was a crossover.

*Shrug*

Doesn't matter to me, I'd still read it.
