Smallville, for like two seasons, ended nearly every scene with an "expressive reaction" shot of one of the characters. Gets really cheesy fast.<BR/><BR/>And this spoiler sucked hard. The balloon spoiler, showing the siren like fifteen times, showing the blast doors closing and the melodramatic and hard to really buy into "5 THINGS WILL HAPPEN" ... well, it's an hour show buddy roh - five things better happen.<BR/><BR/>Still, I liked the episode for the most part. There's just not much to chew on, for the most part. Balloon, pregnancy, Gale's identity ... there's nothing to really put together or guess ... it's just waiting to see what happens next.<BR/><BR/>Gale's our best mystery. My guess is that he is an Evil Other (in case there are Good Others) ... but he's also telling the truth. Well, about that there is a balloon and something happened to the ballooners ...<BR/><BR/>But I don't think anyone who was innocent would have given that "gee, wouldn't be horrible if I placed your friends in a deathtrap" speech.<BR/><BR/>If I was an innocent bystander who had just been pummelled and locked in a room for a few days, my speech would have been:<BR/><BR/>"OMFG YOU HAVE CEREAL! GIMME!"Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04260309971152360156noreply@blogger.com
