4.0 out of 5 stars A Beginning!, December 1, 2010
This review is from: Smallville: The Complete First Season (Amazon Instant Video)
I've decided that I'm going to try and post on every Smallville episode because it's a series I absolutely love and I think people would too if they gave it a chance. The pilor episode is always a favorite of producer/actors because it's the BEGINNING of something they love, especially if it's a success. This pilot introduces us to a teenage Clark Kent and the other characters that will play a crucial part in developing him into Superman...his parents, Chloe, Lex and Lana...even Pete Ross. You find out that there is still a mystery behind Clark that not even he knows and this is what makes this episode special...because a teenage Clark Kent is simply that...a teenager with insecurities and we feel it. You can't help but hurt for this young Clark as he struggles with his feelings and with his "abilities". Give the series a chance. I do recommend that people see the early seasons because it helps understand who he is in later seasons...especially those that include Lois Lane. It helps you understand why he treats her the way he does, at least in this series...which is special.

Needless to say...my favorite seasons begin when Lois Lane comes into the picture in season 4. The actress and character just bring in a lot of fun to the series. I love every single episode Erica Durance is in...IMO...there is no better Lois Lane.

1.0 out of 5 stars $3 off the DVD price? Are you kidding me?, May 10, 2011
This review is from: Smallville: The Complete First Season (Amazon Instant Video)
I know Amazon doesn't set the price, so my beef isn't with them. This is aimed at the production company, etc...

So I don't get a DVD and I may loose the ability to stream if there is some type of licensing issue, but I get to pay almost full price for the series. You guys still don't get it.

I'll just buy it used and you get nothing.

1.0 out of 5 stars Shame on you Amazon, May 12, 2011
This review is from: Smallville: The Complete First Season (Amazon Instant Video)
Shame on you Amazon, over on iTunes they are giving away all the premieres for a limited time only. I'm guessing it will stop May 13, 2011, the shows last episode date.
