Smallville General News and Discussion Thread

[Replicator Todd]

I really hope all three shows get renewed.

Although i've never seen Supernatural or Fringe, I hope so as well. Warner is really on top of quality TV right now IMO.

Both Supernatural and Fringe are amazing shows.

Amazing, Smallville must have a pretty big fandom. Heroes! Wow, I know this is a smallville board but there are definitely Heroes fans out there! (My Aunt is one of them, just buying the DVDs ) I'm ashamed to say I contributed to True Blood .....its not something I enjoyed watching.

Pilot intel: CW orders Tom Welling-produced drama

Tom Welling may be back on The CW next season — at least as a producer. The network has picked up a Welling-produced dramedy pilot set in world of competitive college cheerleading titled Hellcats. It’s Election meets Bring it On.

You thinking what I’m thinking? ‘Cause I’m thinking there may be Smallville-related strings attached to this deal. But that’s pure speculation on my part.
