Smallville Season 6 had some of the show’s biggest moments… but did it also mark the beginning of the end? In this episode of Going Back to Smallville, we’re taking a deep dive into Season 6—exploring how it transitioned the show into a darker, more complicated era. From the rise of Lex Luthor’s villainy to Clark’s shifting relationships, we break down what worked, what didn’t, and how the back half of the season started steering us toward the most divisive chapter in the series: Season 7. We’re also digging into the Smallville: The Complete Sixth Season Blu-ray bonus features, with behind-the-scenes insights, commentary from the creators, and a look at what the showrunners were aiming for during this pivotal time in the series.
