Something Happens
I watched Smallville last night. It featured the appearance of Justice League member #2, Aquaman. Excluding the fact that the guy couldn't act his way out of a wet paper sack, I enjoyed the episode.
Why? A few reasons. First off, they started a relationship (sort of) between Aquaman & Lois, which lends credence to my theory that Lois isn't Lois, and Chloe will eventually be Clark's Lois. Wow, that was convoluted.
I believe that something is going to happen to Lois, either through death, disappearance, or transformation into someone or something else (Wonder Woman, Queen of Atlantis, who knows?), and Chloe will take her name. She's already done it once, while writing for the Daily Planet. Also, having not watched much of last season, I'm fairly confident that Lois isn't a reporter, and Chloe is.
Also, no chemistry seen between Clark & Lois, plenty between Clark & Chloe.
Another thing that happened was a nice little reference to the future. Aquaman, who says "brah" more often than is humanly feasable, tells Clark that they should team up, make a Junior Lifeguard Association, or something like that. To which Clark says "I don't think I'm ready for the JLA quite yet." Stupid, but amusing.
Finally (FINALLY!) James is back! Marsters, playing Professor Milton Fine, and will eventually become Brainiac. But right now he's playing the good guy card, a brainy history professor who takes Clark under his wing, believing that Lex Luthor is the modern equivalent of Hitler or Napoleon. How much of it he actually believes, and how much of it is just The Living Computer playing his pawns against each other is left to be discovered.
Also, he has an American accent, which is REALLY throwing me.
No, sir, I'm just an old friend of Xander, here.
