Smallville - S08E05 - Committed

57 Posted on Oct 16, 2008 in articles by Conor Kilpatrick |

Tonight's episode - Committed

Looks' like we're got us a serial killer in Metropolis.  That should be a nice change of pace.  Hopefully there's some legit danger in that.  It would be good ot see the show go a bit darker now and then.

Whether or not any of that comes to pass, Smallivlle is on a roll with the last three episodes proving to be really a lot of fun.

As always, I look forward to your thoughts, opinions, gripes, live-blogging, etc.

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:12 PM

ANOTHER Whitesnake reference!  We'd better HEAR some Whitesnake at some point this season.

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 08:13 PM

So, SAW 6 - Smallville style?

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 08:17 PM

"omg chloe..we're in SAW!"

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:19 PM

this is pretty awesome so far

Posted by chelsea on 10/16/08 at 08:22 PM

Will this be the reason Chloe and Jimmy don't get married?  It's all going to come out now.  Do you still love Clark?  ...  ZZzzzzap! 

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 08:22 PM

oh this guy isnt a bad guy... hes just trying to help ppl and their relationships. thats good

Posted by smeeeeee on 10/16/08 at 08:23 PM

If he doesn't believe he was cheating, then he was telling the truth.

Posted by xebix on 10/16/08 at 08:23 PM

if the clark and lois thing works , maybe this is how they get together when they both find out they looove each other.

Posted by chelsea on 10/16/08 at 08:24 PM

@chelsea-- I second that this episode has been a lot of fun.

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:25 PM

the actors really do have a good chemistry 

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:27 PM

I was thinking is there anything on Jimmy's parents? 

Posted by siratomofbones on 10/16/08 at 08:28 PM

LOL ollie hes hilarious

Posted by smeeeeee on 10/16/08 at 08:29 PM

ouch , that's gotta hurt

 

Posted by chelsea on 10/16/08 at 08:29 PM

Hahah The interplay between Clark and Lois has been fantastic this season.

AHA!  And the plot thickens with the entrance of Mr. Queen.

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 08:30 PM

good call on the Do you Love Clark guess!

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:32 PM

Someone's got a secret.

Posted by xebix on 10/16/08 at 08:40 PM

this got creepy fast

Posted by chelsea on 10/16/08 at 08:41 PM

they should let him look through walls this season.  or fly.  Fly would be good.

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:42 PM

So, who is this guy?

Posted by xebix on 10/16/08 at 08:42 PM

wow what a coincidence. he just happens to be wearing a kryptonite bracelet

Posted by smeeeeee on 10/16/08 at 08:42 PM

Gob Bluth voice: 

COME ON!

Man, it's been a while since there was a freak of the week episode.  I guess this just became one.  Kryptonite wristband?  Lame. 

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 08:43 PM

they're huge this year I read

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:45 PM

Kirkman reference!

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 08:45 PM

haha he said walking dead

Posted by smeeeeee on 10/16/08 at 08:45 PM

yeah, lois tell the truth

Posted by chelsea on 10/16/08 at 08:45 PM

and there it is

Posted by chelsea on 10/16/08 at 08:46 PM

"so how'd you two finally hook up?"

"well.." 

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:46 PM

Oh, come on!

Posted by xebix on 10/16/08 at 08:47 PM

I wanted Clark to answer.

Posted by xebix on 10/16/08 at 08:49 PM

She's got to put two and two together now right?  I mean he's fully healed already

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:49 PM

That was HILARIOUS.  My wife thought Clark almost shat his pantaloons while he waited to hear Lois' answer.  He was convinced he was getting zapped. 

I think I'd be happy to watch a whole season of just Lois and Clark.

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 08:49 PM

awkward

Posted by chelsea on 10/16/08 at 08:49 PM

man these people are flip about being kidnapped all the time huh

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:51 PM

wtf oh jimmy. who are you?!

Posted by smeeeeee on 10/16/08 at 08:53 PM

...jimmy?

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:53 PM

So... Chloe can do the mad haxxorz on anything she wants to know... except she never bothered looking into Jimmy-boy's 'rents? 

Oh.. who's that sleeping Lex's bed..?  It's Ollie time! 

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 08:56 PM

dude..what is up with these people..Hey super sorry i totally lied about my identity with us about to get married an stuff

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 08:56 PM

They are so great together. I love the chemistry.

Posted by xebix on 10/16/08 at 08:59 PM

i enjoyed that episode quite a bit. :)

Posted by chelsea on 10/16/08 at 09:01 PM

OMG DOOMSDAY NEXT WEEK!!! 

Posted by smeeeeee on 10/16/08 at 09:02 PM

 DOOMSDAY NEXT WEEK!

Posted by smeeeeee on 10/16/08 at 09:06 PM

that was cool!  one of the better episodes of the show really, this seasons been great so far.  

Posted by Kimbo on 10/16/08 at 09:07 PM

Agreed Chelsea.  I liked that episode a lot.  Great ending. 

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 09:07 PM

Is the site extra slow tonight, or is that just my connection?

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 09:12 PM

Well, onto an Office Episode which has been AWESOME so far.  Dwight wears red underwear!  Highlight so far. 

Posted by Crippler on 10/16/08 at 09:14 PM

PENALTY!! False start on Clark Kent. 10 yards. im behind watching it on dvr. but that little false start when she said yes, waas kinda off.

Posted by bigyanks on 10/16/08 at 09:55 PM

I would scratch Tess' itch anytime. :)

Posted by Kory on 10/16/08 at 11:13 PM

I liked this episode alot!  Lois & Clark in the Daily Planet, getting in to trouble, hints at love, its all great in my book.  Tom and Erica have really good chemistry together.  This season has been quite entertaining!  Next week... Doomsday!!!!  I CAN'T WAIT!

Posted by Superyan on 10/16/08 at 11:26 PM

Blimey! Another really strong episode! Maybe it's just Smallville-conditioning, but after the last couple of weeks I was really expecting a nothing/filler episode. Me = proved happily wrong.

I wasn't sure about an 8th season, but on the evidence so far I'm having a blast with this. Making Ollie a regular is the best move they could have made.

Also, and I'm serious, am I the only person who sometimes forgets Lana was in this show? Nothing against the actress, but that's how little I miss her character. The Clark/Lois chemistry is much better.

Posted by Eyun on 10/17/08 at 10:01 AM

Finally got to watch this and - WOW!  Another great episode.  This one was filled with so much great character stuff between the three main couples - Clark/Lois, Chloe/Jimmy, Ollie/Mercy - nad I loved every minunte of it, most especially the Clark/Lois stuff.

One thing I've noticed is that there is usually one moment in every episode where you say to yourself, "Waitaminute... that's no way that... but, how..." and for this one it was when Clark used his heat vision right in front of Lois (who was staring intently at him at the time).  I just kinda had to let that one go.  There is always one moment you kinda have to let go in every show.

Posted by conor on 10/19/08 at 02:25 PM

I got pooped out on Smallville during the third season many years back. I missed out I guess. I just have such limited time to watch TV or DVDs. My a human being not a human watching, LOL.

Posted by electricyoda on 10/19/08 at 08:28 PM

Conor, I think that Clark shoots his eyes off in front of people a few times a season. Didn't he do it last year to stop a bullet on a movie set, with a huge crowd around? I think we are just supposed to believe that the bursts of heat vision travel so fast that their source cannot be identified by the naked eye.
