Smallville: Episode 7.14 "Traveler" Recap

TheEditor · 03-20-2008, 11:58 AM

Previous on Smallville: Clark discovered that Lionel was lying to him, and somehow Clark was shocked by this. Amnesiac Kara decided to move in with Lex.

On tonight's episode of Smallville, the FBi chases down two college students suspected of blowing up a museum while their friend Will mysteriously disappears. Wait, that's a different “Traveler.” Too bad, I was really hoping to see Logan Marshall-Green (Ryan Atwood's brother and Secretary of Defense James Heller's gay son).

"The caliber of guest stars on Smallville is far better than the show deserves." that's only the writer's opinion. what agony he must go through to watch a show he hates that much. reminds me of the lanahaters. so sad.

I assure you, there are shows that I recap that I hate more than this one. My point, however blunt, is that BSG and Buffy are critically beloved and respected, while Smallville...isn't. Smallville is, ultimately, a completely harmless, toothless show. It's capable of being highly entertaining, mindless fluff which I can enjoy. I keep a personal journal of my 50 favorite episodes of TV each year (yes, I'm a TV nerd), and I'll have you know "Justice" was on it.

to each his own. one critically respected and beloved show is ugly betty; I happen to loathe the show. I have no idea why adult viewers need a television program to tell them that inner beauty is what matters. furthermore, the fact that smallville has existed for so long only shows that many viewers share my opinion. by the way, I actually hated the justice episode. also, you needn't mention that you are a nerd since I can see from your pic. (I apologize for the personal shot, but you really were begging for it.)

Ha, I can take it. While I enjoy Ugly Betty, I do think it's quite overrated. As for Smallville, well, According to Jim is also entering its 7th season, so, go figure. But Smallville has an appealing, attractive cast (but I doubt anyone is going to confuse Welling with Marlon Brando). It has a mostly strong mythology, a fun premise, and a lot going for it. Heck, I'd rather watch any episode of this show than most of those crime procedurals. As for "Justice," I think I let my love for Kyle Gallner's awesome performance blind me, but that was such a funny, light, cheese-tastic episode of TV.

WOW!!! What a great episode tonight. I finally saw what I was waiting for. Kara is finally back, Lionel turns on Clark, and Lex continues to shock me. Sometimes I forget why started watching this show when some stories I don't care for continue to drag on, then a highly entertaining episode like this is shown and I see why this show has been around for so long.

This epi made me very sad, I really didnt see the point of killing Patricia Swan in the end. It seemed pointless if Lex wanted to learn more about the Veritas secret society. Also I think expanding Patricia Swan and Veritas storyline would have made the show much more interesting considering the number of cast members they are losing next season

I wish Patricia Swann hadn't been killed so quickly. However, it really shows how ruthless Lex is becoming. I'm glad he didn't get into Kara's head. I would've liked to see them running into each other after she regained her memory. Chloe pleading from the heart to get Jor-El to restore her memories was very sweet. Kara saving Clark was the best! I'm glad Lionel impaled Pierce too, he was such a jerk!

i really wish the girl didnt get shot. that was so sad. its horrible how lex kills like, everyone to get wat he wants. but i guess that is part of the hole bad guy thing. this episode was really cool to watch. im glad kara got her memory back. i knew she was gonna save clark right when he was in that krypto-cell. cant wait for the next episode

I didnt see much of a point killing P. Swan I thought she could have been a good gueststar from time to time
