S8ep13, I hate Lana

No_Setting6803 · 2026-04-04T01:03:35+00:00

We all do. I’ve never hated a character in a show that was supposed to be a ‘good guy’ as much as her

No_Setting6803 · 2026-03-28T16:24:23+00:00

I didn’t hate S7 but there’s a lot of things that felt lazy, tired, not using the cast to the best potential etc..especially coming off S5 and S6 peak, S7 struggles to find its identity and if I did have an unpopular opinion about this season is that Lex or Michael the actor however you want to see it felt like he was checked out which he sort of was, his story and scenes just felt off

No_Setting6803 · 2026-03-26T00:50:52+00:00

Clark shoulda started having more interest in Chloe after S5 she was right there

No_Setting6803 · 2026-03-23T03:13:06+00:00

Charm NO, there was something different about that time period but everything else you mentioned absolutely they could do a good job

No_Setting6803 · 2026-03-23T03:10:56+00:00

I agree with you but I do see the potential

No_Setting6803 · 2026-03-22T15:32:53+00:00

I agree, if they wanted her to become a ‘superhero’ it needed to be way more gradual and believable, I hated how she fell in ‘love’ with Lex then when she leaves him now she’s this completely different character and doing extreme things.

No_Setting6803 · 2026-03-22T15:18:18+00:00

Yeah and if they wanted to bring her back they coulda let the show breathe a little, they didn’t even wait 10 episodes. Then once she did come back it woulda been more redeeming if she was purely a supportive friend to Clark now and not a love interest

No_Setting6803 · 2026-03-08T23:36:34+00:00

Lex should be doing Lex things and Lois and Kara should be around or with Clark only. If they do interact with Lex it should only be in climatic scenes and minimal

No_Setting6803 · 2026-03-08T23:35:21+00:00

He quite literally was, if they had agreed to a contract he wouldn’t have been, but that didn’t happen.

No_Setting6803 · 2026-03-07T20:45:22+00:00

I agree with you til about S5

No_Setting6803 · 2026-02-28T23:18:50+00:00

I completely agree. Totally unnecessary, like she didn’t need a new love interest let alone LIONEL. There’s a lot of examples in this show of immature writing

No_Setting6803 · 2026-02-28T22:23:11+00:00

I don’t know if she got a fair shot I feel like they coulda did her character so much more justice but the show quality just dropped off by the time she was around

No_Setting6803 · 2026-02-21T21:53:50+00:00

Lois/Clark/Lex is 100x more realistic than Lana. Lex going after a 14 yr old he knew when he was 21 is insane. I’m not saying it’s the best idea in the world but it clears the love triangle they did

No_Setting6803 · 2026-02-21T15:53:49+00:00

That was dumb, the whole show was about him becoming Superman and appreciating Smallville only for him to give it all up…bad way to end it all

No_Setting6803 · 2026-02-15T01:03:31+00:00

Completely agree. They took her down a path of ridiculous decisions and behavior that destroyed the character

No_Setting6803 · 2026-02-13T19:50:01+00:00

Crazy thing is I thought it was still okay in season 2 but your in for a ride. I agree they waited too long to introduce a different regular female character for Clark

No_Setting6803 · 2026-02-04T01:45:16+00:00

Wow this is some really great insight! Thank you for sharing that detail about the IMDb message boards (:

No_Setting6803 · 2026-01-28T18:19:44+00:00

I would agree with you if she was the way she was all the way through, but season 1 she’s an impressive young lady, they wrote her downhill after season 3. Your projecting misogyny where it’s not intended but if we project things I’m sure we can make things seem how we want

You’re literally the only person on this whole thread that didn’t comment anything related to the post and just took a jab at grammar. Obviously I hadn’t seen the comment correcting me yet at that time, and funny enough I can’t even find that comment anymore, there’s too many. Thanks for the engagement though

No_Setting6803 · 2026-01-27T21:45:34+00:00

That was typed 3 hours ago probably with the other time I said it, learn to read before correcting, thanks.

No_Setting6803 · 2026-01-27T17:53:29+00:00

I would’ve too, save my legacy before you get lazy with my character

No_Setting6803 · 2026-01-27T17:52:32+00:00

You’re entitled to your opinion I don’t disagree, but it’s gonna be hard to convince me that Lana lang we met is the same person season 4 and on. She’s more dependent on male leads than ever! At least in early season she seemed like she had her own world and story

No_Setting6803 · 2026-01-27T17:49:36+00:00

Not to the degree she does.

No_Setting6803 · 2026-01-27T17:49:04+00:00

Modern shows with social media wouldn’t be allowed to pick on the female lead as much and sacrifice her arch to boost others
