Defend what? Lana having Lexod's baby? The hell? WHO here wants that? SHOW me! It's hard enough finding SV fans who want to see Lana even KISS Lex, never less have his love child. Jeeze.
Keep in mind that this is probably one of the most ridiculous rumors you'll ever see SV fans run with. I think what you will find are fans that have a deep-seated attachment to certain 'ships. With the exception of a very small minority, nobody is getting what they want - and you know how fans can be when they don't get what they want.
- The Clanas are BEYOND upset, arguing everything from ratings to the show's original premise to get Clana back together. But Clark ends up with Lois. Clana is DONE. Move on, kids.
- Chlarkers see Chloe as the "true" Lois Lane, siting bizarre polls as "proof" of what fans want and arguing that such a "twist" would give SV the cache it needs to truly be different. But Lois Lane is on the show. Chlark AINT gonna happen. Give it up, folks!
- Cloisers want Clark with his "true love," siting the established mythology and the six year run of SV. Lets get to it already, they say. But Lois falls in love with Superman. Hello?! This is SV. Who's Superman?
Therein lies the problem.
Life would be so much more pleasant in SV forums right now if fans would just WAIT till AFTER the episode airs before pissing and moaning about something that aint likely gonna happen anyway. At least the other kid rumor *cough* disseminated from people that had actually read parts of the script. And even if it does happen in SV, give it a chance. Wait and see. Who knows? I'll be the first one haulin' pitchforks at the writers if it's DUMB - and I DEFINITELY don't want to see it go in that direction (NO BABIES ON SV, PLEASE!) -
but I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt first before tearing the writers a new one.
