He did cameo as a crew member in the episode where Clark revealed himself as Superman.

The name of the series finale is It Went By So Fast. Ain't that the truth. I love this show so much and I will miss it even more. I had almost no complaints about it and the few I did have, when compared to other Arrowverse shows, were just passing annoyances rather than major story or character problems. From start to finish it was a family show with powers rather than the other way around and that made it the best of the Arrowverse shows. We open on Lana and Irons on a bar date. Good choice. I suspect Lana is kicking his ass. Sarah doesn't have to pay for airfare so at least you saved some money there. I love angry Lois. Rip Amanda a new one! Frog and Toad kick Dooms away from Dad. That was cute and the CGI made it look ever so slightly goofy which I enjoy. I think Lana can heal Irons with just her stubbornness. Apparently the boys new Super Saying is "Fraternals". I love it when this show is silly. Nice sequence of the boys splitting off, Clark watching Dooms go by, and Irons hammer knocking it the fuck out. That was cool. Lex is the Final Bad so I assume, at most, Dooms will come back seconds before Clark throws him into the Sun. That or he throws him in no problem and being that close to the Sun will give him a major power boost. Then he comes back to deal with Lex for good. There's no getting around how goofy Doomsday looks but Clark carrying him to the Sun looked really cool. Hee, Irons is going after Brainiac to get revenge for taking his suit. Go Steel go! Looks like Bizarro has returned to his body and accepts his death. Bye Dooms! Bye Biz! Brainiac stopping Lois from broadcasting while Lex goes after the boys. Clark you better get back asap. But soak up those rays first! Then kick Lex's ass! The sun healed his hearing! Just fly to the sun Clark and get some more of those rays. Jordan saved Jon but I can't tell how. Did he blow him up like Lex did with Bizarro? Doesn't really matter because the boys are both alive. Brainiac isn't so tough when he's not by his computers now is he? Clark revealing his identity means he wears his wedding ring when doing his superheroing and I love that. The nice thing about Lex stealing the suit is Clark gets to freely kick his ass without worrying about his health. And then he immediately saves Lex when the suit is gone. That's Superman. Episode is half over and Doomsday is dead and Lex defeated. I'm scared to hope we get a lot of quiet family time to close out the show. Quiet family time would be an AMAZING way to end the show, and completely in line with how this series has been, but superhero shows don't like to do that in their finales. Maybe five or ten minutes of it but otherwise it's action all the way. A year later? Nice. Looks like Lana's marrying John Henry at the Kent Farm. I really hope they turned it into an events venue in the last year given how often they've hosted. I love Lana's dress. Not wild about those glove things but they're still pretty. Hi Sophie! Blink and you'll miss it cameo. Chrissy's pregnant AGAIN?? Nice scenes with Lana and Kyle. They pulled off being sweet and bittersweet which is hard to do. Hee, Sarah's convinced the barn is cursed. Ok, sure, but it's also the only place to have a party in this town so go have fun kid. We didn't get to see it, for which I blame the season 4 budget, but I hope Nat and Lana have a good step relationship. Nat's almost an adult but I think she'd love to have a second mother to lean on from time to time and we know Lana would love that too. Lex is in prison for life. And expects the same accommodations and string pulling as last time but it looks like it's not working this time around. HA! Bruno's running this show and Lex is now regretting ever decision he ever made that led him to the moment. Enjoy your new career as a chair Lex. So Clark lived 32 more years. And Clark got himself a Super Team during that time. Don't know how I feel about new actors for the boys adult versions but I guess it's for the grandkids. And is that David Giuntoli playing Adult Jon??? Stupid cancer coming back and taking Lois from us. The show's first episode had the death of Martha so I guess bookending with the death of Lois makes sense. Aw, Clark managed to get Krypto after all. Clark's heart starting to give out in the same place as his dad is another understandable bookend. Ok, the show is going hard at the emotional stuff and it's working (on me). It's so Superman for him to find the positive in dying. Goodbye show. You were the best from start to finish.

There's a kids menu item named after Jordan so of course he gets a complex about it. Jordan, call your therapist and work on your need for fame. Ok Jordan's curly fries in that bucket are hilarious and totally looks like him. I like how Supes is working Lex with regard to Amanda's influence. If he can plant the seed correctly Lex will get suspicious and turn on her. Clark's eternal dorkyness helping Lois calm down and focus is his greatest power. If Amanda has any ulterior motives where Lex is concerned becoming the second largest shareholder should help her along. Training at the Fortress! I love a good montage. I think the issue here is the boys are approaching head on as if their fights will always be straightforward. They need to start thinking of the many paths their adversaries may take and plan as much as they can. Well hey there Bruno. Hope you have some legitimate dirt on Lex so Lois can win. I guess if Lois takes Lex out for good Amanda's in a position to take his company from him in response even if she's not intending to do that now. Shame there's only one episode left after tonight. I would love to see Milton put on the suit and go full Brainiac but that would require more time. I will laugh so hard if Doomsday has managed to return to his Bizarro state. Lex wouldn't know what to do. Logically at least one of these guards should be on Lex's payroll but I think we're supposed to assume Bruno managed to get locked up in a prison with his own people. Especially given Bruno's "I take care of my people while Lex only looks out for himself" comment. This is not important but the way Jordan's hair is styled I can't tell if it's to match the curly fries or if it's a wig. Given her expressions I think Amanda has been genuine in being up Lex's ass so I'm curious if she'll turn on him or just wait for her moment. The boys are teasing Clark. Everything is ok. Their greatest strength is being twins. It's how it should be and it fits the show we've been watching this whole time. Looks like Lois got to Amanda after all. And she has a line in the sand with regard to Lex using Doomsday to level Smallville. Interesting. I LOVE watching Clark easily handle the boys in training. I would watch an entire season of this. Aw Dooms is trying to go home. This time don't kill Supes and just leave instead. Lex would hate that. I hope they get Luthor Corp to pay to repair the town when the fight's over.

Knowing the Oscar voters they'll nominate Part 1 for only a few categories or they'll nominate generously but not grant any wins on the grounds they know a Part 2 is coming and won't want to reward it too early. This is the excuse some voters gave for waiting to award Lord of the Rings until Return of the King. Oscar voters choose some of the stupidest reasons to not vote so anything's possible. Right now the best bet is it wins big at the Golden Globes and hope that gives it momentum for SAG and Oscars. Even the Globes aren't a guarantee as those awards are bought and paid for. For what it's worth my copy of the cast album has Glnda saying "at school" but I've never seen it on stage so it's possible the Broadway, touring, and/or local productions have changed the line.

I've gotten to the Cassidy episodes and the whole Detective Beauty Queen insult/nickname would make way more sense if she was shown to care about that stuff. The actor they hired is attractive but, other than keeping her hair down, looks like a normal woman cop. If they'd made her up to look like Carrie Underwood, Christina Aguilera, or Kim Kardashian (in other words: three feet of makeup, designer clothes, and not a hair out of place) then the nickname would make sense. Instead it seemed like the nickname, and subsequent derision, was purely because she was a woman. As there was no follow through about sexism in the NYPD I think it was just another reason the show wasn't very good after the first ten years.

I expressed my concerns about Ariana upthread and I'm happy to say they are no more. She was great, Cynthia was great, Michelle was great, Jonathan was great, Jeff was great, everyone was great!, and the movie was far more colorful than I expected. I'm still annoyed we have to wait a year for Part 2 but I'm looking forward to it.

I've been watching the earliest available seasons of Law & Order on Peacock* and I think the deeply hated Serena and Borgia are perfectly fine characters. L&O started dipping in quality around the ten year anniversary and that's my issue rather than the characters. It's also why I think the Claire Kincaid years are so beloved. Not because Claire herself was so far above the other second chair ADAs but because the material she had was far above what was given to the subsequent characters. *They finally got Homicide available to stream so we need NBC to get with the game and give us Ben Stone, Claire Kincaid, and Lenny's early years as well.

I definitely prefer this Lex with facial hair. It's very Teenage Boy for the twins to be excited about Jamie Kennedy but...really? I enjoyed him in Scream but that's it. Nat should be a kid not a weapons manufacturer. Tom Cavanaugh is the tv reporter talking to Lex. I assume the show name Godfrey is his name but I've decided he's Thawne. Honey I Shrunk The Slaughter Cabin? I'll go see that glorious train wreck of a movie with the kids. Aw the boys are learning the ugly side of fame. "Why are you doing this?" Thank you Lex. I have no idea why she's up your ass so I'm glad you're wondering the same. Otis is dead? Honestly while I'm sure it was Luthor I can also believe Otis killing himself rather than testifying. His devotion to Lex is legendary. Is Lex having an anxiety attack? Wouldn't it be wild if Amanda was secretly working for Brainiac this whole time? Not enough episodes left in the series for it to happen but it would be a cool twist. If Clark's not going to be Superman one day it makes me wonder: will his first heart turn out to be in tact like so many have speculated or will he accept his fate and train the boys to take over before that fateful day? Of course Lex was filming the fight with Clark. Jon, hon, if Candice wants to break up you have to accept it. Don't do that "look me in the eye and tell me you don't love me" nonsense. It worked but I don't care. Ah so this was about getting the suit. The computer graphics did look a bit Brainiac so I'll take that as a win. Ok the suit taking over Irons was creepy as fuck. Well done show. The boys destroyed Nat's suit. Teamwork! I wonder if regular treatments in that bathtub at the Fortress can keep Lane's heart juiced enough so Clark can keep his powers if only for defensive purposes. So Lex does in tend on wearing the suit. Get training everyone.

I was fully lecturing Candice via the tv when her dad was confronting Clark so I'm thrilled Jon's faith in her was justified. It would be so hard to keep that secret and she held firm.

"I will simply deny you the crown and live...forever..."

Aw we get a Clark VoiceOver a flashback montage. Clark should set up some Police Box type things around town so he can suit up and fly out without anyone watching. Lois is putting together a crib (badly) and is salty about it. Annoyed Lois is funny. I hope Kyle and Chrissy get the house BUT I'm sure they could find a nicer apartment if it doesn't work out. Coach being Team Kent is funny but he should apply that good humor to all of his players. JIMMY OLSEN!!! I can't remember if he's been referenced before but, if he's still alive in the present, I want him to show up for...something. I don't care what just bring him on. The douche football player is the only person, so far, I would say it's important to convince Clark and the twins have no powers. The rest of the people so far seem fine keeping quiet aside from the occasional wink and 'super' comment. I'm of two minds on Chrissy selling her half of the Gazette for the house. On the one hand she wants what she thinks is best for her new family and that's important. On the other hand: WHAT WILL SHE BE DOING FOR WORK?? Even if they buy the house upfront rather than get a loan they'll still have to pay taxes and I promise Kyle doesn't make enough for that. If Chrissy really wants the house this bad then she should ask her parents for financial help and KEEP HER JOB. If she already had a new job lined up following the sale of the Gazette then sure go do whatever but she said nothing. I like Angry Clark. I think a big part of this is he never had to navigate this many people knowing about Superman AND he was't in control of them finding out. Hey douche Tim's mom is the only person in Smallville who doesn't know about the powers. I love how comic bullies, in the event they find out about Our Hero's Secret Identity, won't suddenly realize they'd been awful to someone who could literally punch their head off but will double down. Yes, the Kents won't do that but they have a ability. Douche Tim's friends did seem to consider this but they must not have explained it to him properly. Jimmy's getting a major part of the flashbacks so I'm scared he's dead. A part of me thought Lane's heart would make him a smidge sucseptible to bullets. Like it would scratch him, he'd bleed enough to convince Emmett, and then heal quickly. But him choosing to formally reveal Superman ended up being poignant. Of course Lex was behind Emmett finding out. At least Candace can keep a secret. He knows the boys will be on board but still does a family meeting to discuss telling the world. Never change Clark. Ephraim is in this episode??? Does that mean Gregory directed? I love Clark's interview/speech. Keep the glasses. They're an accessory like a watch or baseball cap. They can be how you let people know you're in Clark mode rather than Superman mode. Jimmy's alive!!
