Smallville: CW Announces Airdate of Last Episode

by Trevor Kimball, February 8, 2011

SmallvilleThough many fans don’t want to see the series go, The CW has announced the official end date of Smallville, the network’s longest-running series. After 10 seasons on the air, will we finally get to see Clark Kent (Tom Welling) in the familiar red and blue tights?

Smallville will fly away with a special two-hour finale on May 13th, pre-empting Supernatural. That series will return a week later with a two-hour season finale. Supernatural hasn’t been renewed yet but a seventh season is expected.

Here’s the press release from The CW…

UP, UP AND AWAY… “SMALLVILLE” WRAPS ITS TEN-YEAR RUN WITH A TWO-HOUR SERIES FINALE EVENT ON FRIDAY, MAY 13, ON THE CW

February 7, 2011 (Burbank, California) – The CW will present the series finale of SMALLVILLE as an epic two-hour television event on Friday, May 13 (8:00-10:00 p.m. ET.)

The story of a young Clark Kent (Tom Welling) and his journey to become the Man of Steel has captivated audiences for a decade. This final season, Clark attempts to find a balance between saving the world, which becomes even more difficult as the Vigilante Registration Act separates a nation, and spending time with his new fianc?e Lois Lane (Erica Durance). Whether it’s donning glasses as a disguise, changing in a phone booth or learning how to fly, this season has put Clark closer to his destiny than ever before. Taking on Darkseid and battling the darkest of his demons, this two-hour event will send Clark soaring towards his birthright to secure his place in history as the world’s greatest protector.

“Paying homage to 10 seasons is no small task, and wrapping up each character and story arc has been extremely important to everyone involved in the show,” said executive producers Brian Peterson and Kelly Souders. “We’re excited to be able to make the final moments of SMALLVILLE a television event, as the character we’ve grown up with makes his legendary transformation.”

Please note SUPERNATURAL will be pre-empted on May 13 but will return with a two-hour season finale on Friday, May 20 (8:00-10:00 p.m. ET.)

SMALLVILLE was developed for television by Alfred Gough & Miles Millar (“Shanghai Noon,” “The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor”), based on the DC Comics characters. Kelly Souders & Brian Peterson serve as executive producers, along with James Marshall, Mike Tollin, Brian Robbins, Joe Davola and Tom Welling. The series is produced by Tollin/Robbins Productions, Millar/Gough Ink and Warner Bros. Television. SUPERMAN was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.

What do you think? Will you miss the series or is it time for Smallville to go?

ESTA SERIE NO RESPETABA PARA NADA EL FORMATO DEL COMIC. ERA MALA Y LOS PERSONAJES ESTAN MAL DESARROLLADOS. CLARK KENT NO PARECE TIMIDO,SINO ESTUPIDO Y LOS VILLANOS NISIQUIERA SON EL VERDADERO:DOOMSDAY.COMO TAMPOCO:BRAINIAC,LA COMPUTADORA O METALLO.LA DE LA DECADA 90 :lUISA Y CLARK REA MUCHO MEJOR Y RESPRTABLE.

I am 68 years old and have watched all of the various incarnations of Superman on TV and in the movies. This has been my favorite, with Lois and Clark coming in as number two. I would love to see it transformed into a full fledged “Superman” series now that Clark has donned the familiar Superman tights. Like many other viewers, Smallville has been at the top of my television viewing list for the last ten years. I think one aspect of the show that has added a great deal to it’s interest is the inclusion of the various characters… Read more »

I have followed smallville for 10 seasons and I think it is the most entertaining show on
television. I hope Tom Welling learns how to fly by the end of the series.

I will definitely miss the show. There have been some good episodes and some dissappointing ones. I’ve enjoyed Tom develop over the 10 yrs(doesn’t seem that long), especially after watching him as the karate teacher in Judging Amy.

I am going to miss Hottieville. What would be a great idea is to have a Justice League series like Kevin said. Some of the best episodes have been around the Justice Society characters, of course with Hawkman now gone it’s a shame. The interaction between him and Green Arrow was really nicely done. I hope they consider it.

This has been my favorite show since it began. While there have been a few unimpressive episodes, it has overall been the escapist entertainment it was expected to be. While I will miss the current format I would love to see it and the cast get moved forward into a full-fleged Superman or Justice League series.

I love the show and wish that it would not end. I think it would be great if they could find a way to keep the show on the air but at the same time allow Clark to grow and actually become Superman. I thinks he is by far the best. I love the Lois and Clark series but Tom just makes Superman more real and has showed how he struggled to come to grips with his destiny.

Michael mentioned he would be interested in doing the finale when he left the show and from what has been happening they are definately planning on the return of Lex. I hope he still comes back for the show…
