[b]Question: Any news as to whether Tom Welling has signed on for another season of Smallville? -- Scarlett[\b]
Ausiello: Yes, there's news, and it's good. Some would even call it, ahem, super. According to a well-placed Smallville insider, Welling is nearing a deal to return for a ninth season. I'm told they're just ironing out some minor deal points, such as should the Brinks Truck pull into the actor's driveway, or just unload on the street.

Bring back John Doe! Or at least resolve the cliff-hanger with a 2hr movie or as an extra on a dvd release.

Re: Smallville season 9?...Looks like it.

Hey, I'm happy about it. I'm not ready to give up the weekly Smallville fix just yet. It's comforting to know it's there. If they can maintain the current level of quality, cool. I just hope they can get Mack back. They had some difficulty last time. She and Welling are the only two indispensables.

I'll skip the usual whining about getting him in the suit and in the skies (unless mentioning it counts as whining, which I think is usually the case when someone throws something like this in ).

I would argue that even Allison Mack is dispensible at this point. She doesn't really have any involvement in the main plot thrust of the series any more. I'd focus in on Lois and Clark and the Daily Planet and be done with it.

No! It's all about Chloe and always has been. That is, as long as the marriage is undone. I just hope they leave Chloe in such a state that she can finally transistion over to the comics without it being the earlier pitched "she's Jimmy's age and had little to no history with Clark."

I much prefer seeing Chloe and Clark to Lois and Clark. The only pull Lois and Clark has for me is the comic history (that's the story we're used to, so we've been waiting for it to play out).

Studios, caption your internet streams.

Re The Suit. The way they costume their super characters I doubt the suit is accepted in this universe. It doesn't look as if the Legion will be costumed. If he ever does don a costume I would think it's more likely going to be some real world equivalent to the classic suit, like Green Arrow's costume.
