Okay, time for s1E02 - Metamorphosis!

I know, Pilot was days ago. But I'm watching this from my laptop and my headphones are shit, so I watch episodes when it's just me and the dogs.

S1E07 - Crave

Alright, time for the react!

Today I'll be watching Crave. This one is really interesting to me. It seems at first glance like it'll be another allegory, this time it looks like it's about dieting.

So let's get into it!

S1E05 - Cool

Alright, let's talk about Cool. IIRC this is the sex addiction allegory.

This originally aired November 13, 2001 and since Smallville was actually shot in Canada (again, iirc), it makes sense for there to be snow on the ground, but for Kansas, this apparently doesn't typically happen until early December. So universe timeline-wise, that's probably where I would place this.

Unless snow fell early that year in Kansas. If anyone remembers if it did, I'd appreciate if you let me know for the timeline I'm building 🙏

S1E03 Hothead

For some reason I thought this was gonna be episode 4, but nope, it's happening now!

S1E04 - X-Ray

Ayyy, new power time for Clark!

S1E01 - Pilot Live React

(As an aside, since I live in the US, I'm watching this through Disney+, not Netflix.)

So when Lex is wandering that cornfield at 9 years old and hears Jeremy Creek, the subtitles says Jeremy is thinking "Help me," not saying it.

So Lex with psychic powers. Anyone done anything with that yet?

S1E06 - Hourglass

Watch time!

Might as well have called this episode Prophecy, but that would've been too on the nose, right? 😆

This one's gonna be important for fic writing.
