Summary: Smallville: 3rd Season
Comment: Being a big Smallville (Superman) fan, I have enjoyed the series. Amazon always offers DVD's at such a wonderful price! I especially like the free shipping for orders over $25.00. I always receive confirmation of order placed, and shipping date. In all the years of ordering from Amazon I have only had to return 2 DVD's because they skipped. Looking forward to ordering the 6th, 7th and when available, the 8th season.
I have ordered other items as well from Amazon and have never been disappointed.

Summary: Smallville at its best!

Summary: Clark's "saved" count, season 3
Comment: I like this season really well. Watching Lex and Lionel battle is always fun, as is watching Clark deal with his new powers. Sometimes I lose patience with Chloe... Clark's not into you, Chloe, deal with it!
And, to prove I have no life, I watched the season with a checklist in front of me, and here's what I counted as far as who Clark saved this season, and how many times.
Lana=4
Lex=2
Jonathan=3
Martha=0
Chloe=2
Pete=2
Lionel=1
Random Hot Chick=3
Random Guy=3
Someone who was just trying to kill Clark=0
Other (group of people, entire world, etc.) 1
Total individual saves, not counting "other"=20 (half as many as season 1.. you're slacking, Clark!)

Summary: Nice for teens!
Comment: Bought this for my nieces and they love it. I've never watched it but they say it's really great. They are in their teens so if you have teens, they will probably like this too.

Summary: Ahhh the good old days.
Comment: It's strange looking back now at Smallville when you think of the rubbish it's become. Back in its first three glorious seasons it had some excellent stories, character progression & more importantly it was god damn entertaining.
Hell even Lana was watchable. This was because back then the Clark/Lana relationship was organically fleshed out between its first three seasons, with season 1 being they get to know each other, Season 2 they fall in love & Season 3 they try & stay together but ultimately (or seemingly fail). Now had Lana stayed in Paris (which she should have) then this would have made the Clark/Lana story indeed tragic but from Season 4 onwards Lana would become a mascot for the creators & cease to be a character but more on that in my season 4 review.
Anyway this season has some excellent episodes especially the episode Perry where Clark helps out a down & out Perry White wow those were the days, Clark was actuallt the star of his own show!!
The season ends with the sensational Covenant where Chloe seemingly dies & Lionel goes to jail for the death of his parents & Lex is left in charge of his Father's empire. Now had Season 4 started and continued with Chloe dead, Lionel in jail, Lana in Paris then the show would have been having the same forward momentum it was gaining for the previous three seasons & would actually had been considered one of the best shows of its time but sadly the creators wouldn't take more risks as far as characters were concerned, Lana would return, Chloe lived, Lionel somehow escapes prision & takes charge of LuthorCorp again although he was bankcrupt?
This is as good as Smallville would get sadly as after this the show would be much of the same but like any copy it would prove to be far inferior to its original predicessor.
P.S.
Please comment & I will respond as soon as possible.
Thank you!

Clark Kent lives in Smallville, but in many ways he is out of this world, and so is this spectacular series that provides a fascinating spin on Superman lore. Season 3 is marked by Clark's inability to overpower destiny and its pressing call for his return home. Clark, who has left Smallville for Metropolis, returns to Smallville to help his parents, who are desperately trying to save their cash-strapped farm and is happily surprised to find that Lex Luthor has survived a deadly jet crash. Lex and Clark's ill-fated camaraderie is strengthened by this miracle but causes tension in the close-knit Kent family, as Jonathan fears that Lex will emulate Lionel and his unscrupulous ways, even while Lex has tried to establish his own identity.
