The Superman myth has always been magical and heroic, but little has been written about Clark Kent's small-town life as a teenager growing up in Smallville. While he comes to terms with being a high-flying superhero he still has adolescence to contend with and never before has Superman been so cool and hip. Featuring newcomers Tom Welling (in the title role) and Michael Rosenbaum as Lex Luther and seasoned actors such as the DUKES OF HAZZARD's John Schneider and Annette O'Toole (SUPERMAN 3) this state-of-the-art special effects packed series satisfies our small screen appetite for comic book heroes. This set contains all the episodes from the second season.

Let me just say, I hate Dawson's Creek, The OC, One Tree Hill, and all those other teen dramas but I can now appreciate their appeal as I absolutely love Smallville!!
It's my escape from the real world and brings me back to being a teenager and watching those movies over and over again. Not so kitch as the films but ultimately more engrossing as you watch to see what other powers Clark finds he has and how he controls them.
Fantastic viewing with superb supporting and cameo roles from original cast.
It is always difficult to review a series but, with one this good, it has to be tried.
Series 2 takes off where the first series ends, on prom night with Lana Lang (Kreuk) airborne in a truck courtesy of an inconvenient tornado. Cue Clarke Kent (Welling) to save her and kick off the series in a spectacular fashion.
This series still concentrates on super sized growing pains rather than Clarkes powers but has rather less in the way of freakish events compared to the first series and also spends a reasonable portion of time charting Lex Luthers slow descent towards the dark side. Brilliantly played by Rosenbaum it is the extra time devoted to the Luthers which really make this series stand out.
If you haven't tasted the joys of 'Smallville' yet it is time to get off your high horse, rent that 1st series and settle in to watch something that the Americans do better than the 4 X 100m relay.
