8.17 Hex Lois: "One year closer to the sweet release of death." Chloe: "How wonderfully morbid." Watchtower, huh? Chloe is the big Justice League space station? :) Good episode, fun to watch. The body-switching thing (sorta kinda) has certainly been done and they didn't do a whole lot of original stuff, but it was nice to see them resolve Chloe's lifelong ambition to be a reporter at the Planet as well as her Lois envy. She got past her Jimmy issues, too. Working with Oliver and the League on a permanent basis? Much more exciting. And I'm for anything that suggests Chloe will be around permanently. And hey. Part of me has always wanted to see Chloe with Clark. The other part of me wants Lois with Clark. And I kind of got both in this episode -- except that nothing really happened. I guess it's just as well because if it had, then that would be like admitting that Chloe in her own body isn't pretty enough for Clark. Which she most certainly is. Since I've never heard of Zatanna before, I had no idea throughout if she was good or bad. Apparently, she's pretty cool; according to Dan, she's one of the coolest characters in the DC universe and has a love/hate relationship with Clark. I'm down with that. I was mildly disturbed that Clark wouldn't even consider wishing Jonathan back. And we never found out what Oliver's wish was, although we could all guess that it would involve a gruesome, painful death for Lex Luthor. And I liked the re-focus on Clark and Lois. It's like those episodes with Lana never happened. Clark is making puppy dog eyes at Lois? He framed her rules of reporting from his first day on the job? And the rooftop scene made me laugh out loud. So -- pretty good. And hey. Still no Lana, Billie View all comments or post a comment. |
