Smallville: Random, Awesome and WTF?! - S4E14: Krypto

$

A dog with superpowers enters the Kents’ life in another episode designed to tug the old heartstrings, just like the ones with Ryan.

And we all know how that turned out for Ryan, don’t we…


The Random:
1. Lois definitely feels like a Smallville resident now that’s hit something with a car. Welcome.

2. For the record, I don’t care for movies or shows with dogs being like people, whether it’s Air Bud or Beethoven, and this is no exception. It’s not cute. It’s cheesy.

3. Dr. Quinn is afraid that Lana’s ancestor could possess her again and kill her and Jason. Clearly, she overestimates Lana’s ability to do anything right.

“Good boy. Now let’s go find us a big old vampire to kill.”



The Awesome:
1. I’m thinking it might be a pain in the ass, but a smart dog with superpowers would likely be better than the two moron cats I used to have that would lock themselves in the closet regularly.

2. Lionel has been conspicuously absent a lot lately, but Dr. Quinn, Sexy Woman is doing admirably filling the void. She’s up to no good, but I’m fine with it.

3. The mysteries of the past lives of the Langs and Teagues begin to take shape and Lionel returns just in time to start playing his own game. This can only be a good thing.

Pictured: Lex, totally scoping out Dr. Quinn.
Not Pictured: Me, nodding in approval.

The WTF?!:
1. Ah, the ethics of a small town shine through again as criminals decide to inject dogs with experimental Kryptonite serums and make them commit crimes, often violently.

2. We’ve seen Clark stuck in a room with a big old hunk of Kryptonite and be able to kick a can of paint over to free himself, but here he can’t bring himself to roll out of a slow moving vehicle when two small vials break and he’s two feet from the door. Right.

3. With all the comic nods and Easter eggs this show has dropped, they couldn’t throw us a bone, no pun intended, and let the damn dog be named Krypto even though it didn’t look like him? Shelby? THAT’S the best you could do, Smallville? You even titled the damn episode Krypto! C’mon!

“All right, quick. Michael Vick needs this stuff by 7, sharp.”
