Join Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum for our Smallville rewatch this week as we are graced by one of the most important characters over the last couple seasons - Helen Bryce herself, Emmanuelle Vaugier is on the pod! She shares her experience on the set with cast and crew and some stories you don’t want to miss. This week we break down Season 3 Episode 2: PHOENIX. Tom shares the unique surprises of working with Rutger Hauer and what he remembers from the ‘dock shootout’ scene in this episode. Michael shares why he wanted Lex to have more of a ‘revenge arc’ and how taxing Season 3 was with the darkness Lex delves into.

We try to remember an episode about Clark trying to remember this week as Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum revisit Smallville Season 4 Episode 19: BLANK! After we explore Jensen’s character diving off the deep end, the guys explore Chloe’s character development and how it’s grown since Season 1. We also continue the rage against yellow vehicles and try to figure out what the motivation for the evil Dick Cheney-like father was in this episode.
