Hmm. Karla over at DeKnight's blog said she just read this quote from Gough in the latest SV magazine...

"Hypnotic was sexy and, finally, we got the death knell for the Lana-Clark relationship. After 5 years it's over forever. So that was great. We dragged it out as long as anyone could humanly drag out a relationship, real or unreal. It was nice to finally say goodbye to that."​

I hear a storm a brewin', ahuh!

I suppose it depends on when the interview was done vs. when the mag came out. If the interview was done early in S5 we may or may not see that acctually happen. Remember Thurs was supposed to be a death sentence. But it it was more recent than Reckoning then it's about time.

It's fairly recent; the interview appears to have been done just before they got official word from CW for a S6 pick-up. So... I dunno... maybe two months old at this point?

There's a LOT more on that topic in the latest SV mag. It's totally worth the ten bucks.

True but then again they are all little girls living the Clana liked they lived Joey-Pacey,Marissa-Ryan, Angel-Buffy etc etc they'll take whatever teen relationship the WB give them with pink fluffy myspace pages and DTS blogs and a TRL soundtrack of Lifehouse and Rascaal Flatts.

Dude.. really. It was Spike/Buffy. D'uh.
And Rascaal Flats? Ew.

My thing is what's up with Chlarkers? there like the ****ing annoying ass white girl in High School that tries to act all intellectual and hate the trendy crowd on some Jeanne Garafolo **** and reject Teen People and the prom for Nancy Drew novels and Veronica Mars on a Tuesday. Shoot, they ARE Chloe. And Clois shippers are just the most impatient insecure idiots on the face of the planet with the whole "But he cant be with her, its there DESTINY to be together, She's Lois Lane I mean Erica even brought Comic Book Boobies to make sure of that, when he gets with Lois he is SUPERMAN and why cant clark be like Jack Bauer " ( Yes that that is an imitation of a certain pre-pubescent turd who has yet to be flushed down the toilet of fandomania and y'all know who I'm talking about)


Oh yes I do enjoy dissing them dudes.

SL.. will you be my BFF?


My beef.. and all I want to say about it because it's all SO out of my hands..
is Gough and Co. should be beat with sticks for the crap they pulled with the character of Lana.. and now that their female lead is a complete pariah in the online fandom communities they are backpedaling their chubby little legs like crazy and kicking her to the curb like yesterday's news. They are definitely NOT on my BFF list.

But...none of this has anything to do with Steven D. He's a great guy, but he's not one of the big kahunas pulling the strings. I just hope Steve does the best he can within the parameters that he's given. I think he will...

P.S. I'm in Florida with lots of squealing girls. Florida is, as always, HOT as hell and totally overpopulated with crunchy bugs. HELP!
But thank god for internet cafes!

Why I was happy to leave after I was done with the airport.

I enjoy reading inside information like this.

Sometimes we know who's writing an episode before we start talking about it, sometimes we don't. We were working on the premiere for almost a week before I knew I was tackling it. Then we continued breaking the story as a group, eventually splintering off into a smaller group once we had traction (so that the other writers could go start working on episode 2).
The first draft of Zod was handed in earlier this week. I'm now out working on the first round of notes, which at this point are purely story and character related. The next draft goes to the studio and network. I'll do their notes and then we start prepping the episode for production on the 28th. More rewrites will happen through prep to bring the budget down and tighten the story. The ep starts filming July 10. Those of you who arent boycotting the show will get to see it at the end of September.

must be something - those first days of each season..

or they're just complete chaos..

wish they had some stories to share..

Does that mean I think their views on Lana and Clark are the mad ramblings of a couple of crackheads? No, I don't. They have their reasons for what they are doing and where they want to go. I may or may not agree with them -- but I do see the validity of their side of the argument. There are many ways to take the relationship. They didn't choose the one I expected, but I none-the-less find it fascinating.

I'd love to know where this is going. I find the Clark/Lana relationship one of the more fascinating ones, because of the ups and downs.

Avid, the quote you posted seemed the tail end of a larger subject being addressed. What was he answering? What question was asked of him?

Steve had actually said earlier that in his opinion the Clark and Lana relationship was the heart of the show and that maybe the Lexana relationship would ultimately have Clark and Lana become closer friends.

Some of the posters were actually being rather rude, calling him a liar, given Gough and Millar's recent comments in the Smallville Magazine.

 

[KalKai]

When is Pat coming back?

There is a plot for Clark. It's a verrrrry big one. That's why you're not hearing about it.

 

[BaK]

hmm.. lets see.. a very big plot..

WOOHOO!!!


Me like the sound of that!

 

[rumpuso]

Oh this sounds excellent!

 

[Serene]

I'll join you in that happy dance!

And so will Tom.

 

[rumpuso]

Wow! Go Tom Go!

(He's sooooo happy!!)

What Steve DeKnight said about the Lexana bringing them closer together, I hope he is right. I would love to see them finally put everything behind them, and really have "No more secrets, no more lies."

To be honest, I'm just taking what they give us. I am deffinatly interesting in where this is all going.

Me too. I look forward to the day when we have episodes dealing with Lana finding out about Clark--especially after everything she's been through with the Kryptonians baddies from the ship and (probably) Zod. It will make for good television. I hope that the writers give us half or even a whole season of Lana knowing. (There's that optimism-thing rearing its head again. )

When is Pat coming back?

Just got back today -- and have a LOT of catching up to do. I haven't been over to DeKnight's blog yet - I'm thinking I'll need to put a pot of coffee on first - but this "big plot" twist sounds rather.... um... tasty.

*keeps fingers crossed*

And speaking of people with interesting comments to make on all things sort of red, blue and yellow, somebody owes us a visit, and soon!

He has been conspicuously absent of late, hasnt he?

 

[NHawk19]

^True. Wonder where he's at. It's late and I could use a slice to break the silence

You need the AgentPat decoder ring...

Like I speculated in another thread, maybe the higher ups have emptied the water cooler so that any negative press can't be propagated...sort of like how Steve can't tell anyone of the "big plot". But I really do miss the talk about food. Like you, I'm getting hungry.
