"Always hold on to Smallville..."

Those were Jonathan Kent's final words in Smallville,

which from 2001 to 2011 chronicled the trials and tribulations of a

young Clark Kent on his journey from farm boy to Superman. Host Zach

Moore is taking them to heart and will be covering each and every

episode of the hit TV series than ran for 10 seasons and over 200

episodes on the WB/CW...and ushered in the golden age of superhero

television we're currently enjoying today!

This week Zach is again joined by Nick Ryan Magdoza to discuss the thirteenth episode of Smallville,

"Kinetic." We take the first few minutes of the show discussing Supergirl's renewal for a second season, its move to the CW, and what effects we expect that move to have on the series. We also read a listener email! Basically, we put off having to discuss this episode as long as possible. Let's be real, it's Smallville's worst so far. Yes, even worse than "Craving." No subplot with Joe Morton to save the day here...bro. BE THE TRUCK!
