Serene said:This is a really good point, Rump. I usually watch new episodes at least twice.. sometimes more , but I haven't re-watched Vessel at all. Too many season finales to get in this week! And I guess I just wasn't as motivated. Perhaps, I'll like it more the second time around, I usually do.
I'm going to be home and out of commission for a few days though.. so I plan on watching season 5 again, from start to finish, that's the goal at least.
I haven't had the chance to rewatch Vessel either--I figure that I'll give it a few more weeks (after some big due dates pass). My initial feeling after watching Vessel was disappointment--it was a good episode, but I wanted a jaw-droppingly awesome episode--but I expect that feeling to change by the time Season 6 rolls around.
I was hoping that Vessel would top Commencement--but I realize now that probably no season finale of Smallville will ever have everything going for it like Commencement did. I also realize that because the rest of S4 wasn't as strong as its finale, Commencement was a real gem in the rough; S5 was so strong that I don't think any finale would have had that same stand-out quality.
Until I see the S6 premiere, my opinion of Vessel will remain in a holding pattern. I'm fairly confident that once someone kneels before Zod, I will be satisfied.
