That said, 1) it's Friday night, 2) I have to work, 3) I'm being snowed in as I type, and 4) I'm about to watch two hours of Smallville starring the JSA. I'm not going to be even close to sober for this thing. I'll be posting the live-blog in this article, so you can bookmark it if you want; after the show is over, I'll be moving it below the TR Contest, in case anyone wants to re-live the experience. I'll bring the corn, and you guys bring your favorite cucumbers, and we meet back here at 7:55. Break!

Rob Bricken reads One Piece, the greatest manga ever! YES! The second funniest man on the internet (After Seanbaby, of course) has taste!

I haven't watched Smallville in years, should I watch this? It looks kind of interesting from the trailers. It can't be any worse than Heroes, right? And the Heroes liveblogs make it kind of fun, since there are people sharing in my misery.

Ah, optimism. Smallville makes Heroes look like the fucking Sopranos.

Well since 'blog' is a contraction of web and log,"blogged" would be its most correct past participle form. :-B

Is this really what constitutes a good episode of Smallville, now?
Ugh.

Rob, now that Heroes is ending, you have no reason to continue the binge drinking. I think you should take the first step on Monday: Watch the last episode of Heroes while sober. I know it will be very painful--I hate the taste and smell of alcohol, so I have to do this blog sober--but, I think, if you have the will to watch the episode without alcohol, you have the will to recover from alcoholism. Remember what a psychologist, a friend of my father, told me: Drunks do not lose the will to remain sober after they drink; they drink after they lose the will to remain sober.

I would sadly like to point out the fact that we don't actually have the confirmation that Heroes is canceled.

Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for the live-blog...I had a blast until my crappy computer crapped out. And not to get too..real,but I usually have to enjoy my nerd activities alone since all my friends are across country...it was nice to hang with some fellow nerds and make fun of Smallville with a crowd,instead of muttering drunkenly to my TV alone!

Having never watched Smallville before, I have to say I liked this. I agree that Icicle II was not a great villain, but since they planned to kill him off anyway it wasn't so bad. I still think Wesley Dodds died too fast and too pathetically. My favorite JSA member deserved better. As I said in an earlier post, why not Mr. Terrific instead? Who would have missed him?
I loved all the little things, especially the reference to Ma Hunkle. Her Red Tornado was suspiciously absent from that group painting.
I hope that this opens the way for some JSA heavy flashback episodes where we can see Sandman and the others in action during their prime.
Barring that, if Superman would just put on his damn costume and start the Justice League, I'd make a point to watch this show every week.

I was disappointed by the villain and was confused how he actually did win the fights he was in, let alone be able to put on Dr. Fates Helmet, I thought there was rules about using it but I guess not. I really do hope to see the JSA show up again, maybe have the A Lister's show up.
