Baa ba-ba-ba-baaaaaaaa....

I am not a steady viewer of "Smallville" by any means. I watched the first two episodes, decided it seemed a bit too much like "Dawson's Creek", and never bothered to get bac in to it. Then I heard reviews that said it was *good*, but relied a bit too much on the stale "Freak-of-the-Week" pattern, so my interest waned even further. But tonight was an episode I could not miss.

Tonight, Christopher Reeve was re-introduced in to the Superman mythos.

Just by using those 5 opening notes of the Superman March from the films of the 70's/80's, they got me all choked up. It was truly a beautiful thing, and they've hooked another viewer with this little stunt (as long as they don't use the "Freak-of-the-Week" formula too often).
