I think once Lexx attaches his anger towards Superman he will be so wrapped up in trying to destoy him that his anger will not allow him associate him with Clark.

That might work if he were a mail order madman, but standing face to face, I don't see it. I'm content to let things play out and see what happens. Maybe in the end we'll all groan and say, "Awwww! No way!" Personally, I'm not going to anticipate that.

who says that Lex won't know that Clark is Superman?

He might keep Clark's identity a secret because he believes it's his personal mission in life to rid the world of his old friend. That sounds like SV's Lex to me.

I picked up Lois and Clark yesterday at Wal-mart for $20, I remembered loving the show as a kid, it's not as good as I remember it but I still like it. It is a bit cheesy but John Shea's portrayl of Lex is pretty good. There seemed to be in there some hint of Superman and Lex maybe knowing about each other, if they did it was never fleshed out, but it appeared that way.

I think personally there will be a point where Lex will just go over the deep end and he'll start his decent into "greatness/villan" and while he may recognize Clark as Superman, he probably won't put two and two together until much later. If I remember correctly at one point Lex in the comics actually knew Clark was Superman, but kept it hidden for his own purposes.

This season so far has been great. My favorite scene this past week was James Marsters quote of "But Vampire's don't exist."

I have said in the past. I always thought it would be cool. If Lex considers Clark his good friend...yet hates Superman. It would cause great drama for Clark.



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

Hey, why didn't anybody mention this week's guest star? That's going to be fun.

John Sneider says he only works with guys with the initials of TW . That should be a hint and since he works with another guy with the same initals it makes even more true.

I didn't know if it was common knowledge and I just missed out, or if it wasn't even spoiler material. I just happened to look in the paper's TV Magazine, and there was a picture of the two of them.

For those who aren't in on it:

I may regret not letting sleeping dogs lie, but here goes...

For one to assume that since someone visits HTF then they must also know about Braniac from the comics or other TV and internet properties is just plain wrong. I do not agree with that logic.

Patrick,

Of course I am not trying to beat a dead horse. The cat is definitely out of the bag regarding Braniac on HTF: TV & HDTV Programming. I accept it. No muss, no fuss, I just wanted to make my point. I think I did. Most people disagree with it. I am cool with that.

This post is spoiler free but is riddled with cliched prose.

I am also of the opinion that Chloe > Lois. Chloe in a snowsuit > Lois climbing out of the water in the Aquaman ep. Chloe is my "thing." SHe's adorable, she's expressive and she's decent actress. Erica Durance is a few quips and the occasional cheescake image. It doesn't really matter though because, objectively and without sexual preference, Tom Welling is the best looking actor on that show. Cmon, you know it. LOL!
