Return to "Smallville" - Season 1
It's a fascinating thing to return to a show 20 years later. For the kids, Smallville debuted when I was about 26 and would have watched pretty much anything that was comic-book related, but was aggressively obsessed with all things Superman - an obsession which started roughly five or six years prior and continues to this day in a toned-down sort of way. It will sound weird to new comics readers now, but arriving at Superman around the age of 20 or 21 was late for a comics nerd as I'd been reading comics for a decade with no particular interest in The Man of Steel. But, a confluence of comics that spoke to me where I lived featuring Superman* began trickling out in the mid to late 90's, and that, paired with the WB's Superman: The Animated Series, turned the tide.
At the time of show's debut, I wasn't much of a TV watcher - as in, I didn't make time for television, but I did watch a lot of films. That said - I'd followed X-Files til right about at this point (when I gave up on the program), but had not been a person to obsess over a particular show, otherwise. Well, maybe Seinfeld, Simpsons and some Babylon 5. And lest we forget, Chef!. No Buffy, Angel or whatever else for me.

Happy Birthday, Sarah Douglas!
Happy birthday to Sarah Douglas! Among other things, this site is a Superman fan site - and what would Superman: The Movie and certainly Superman II be without the casually-delighted menace of Sarah Douglas's Ursa? I won't get into her full filmography, because that is what we call "a storied career" and you can IMDB her on your own. You will begin realizing "man, I really have seen and heard her voice work in a shocking amount of stuff".
Ms. Douglas is also on twitter, and seems as cool as you would hope!
Here's to Ms. Douglas, and let's hope she's celebrating with pals.
