Smallville Season Premiere "Odyssey": Letting Go

Only 4 weeks since Lex and Clark went missing after the Fortress collapsed. I was kinda afraid it was gonna be a few months.

Great to have Oliver back as a regular and nice to see AC and Dinah again too.

Clark without his powers again felt kinda last-resort cheap, but I can't blame Michael for moving on after 7 years. I look forward to the whole "Where's Lex?" plot of the season.

Pretty good introduction for Tess. Even Ollie agrees she's worse than Lex.

Crystal of Knowledge, eh? Interesting.

Damn, it really wasn't looking good for our heros there -- especially Clark. Nice brief nod to the past when his life flashed. Why didn't they include anyone saying anything when Martian Manhunter showed up? I'm confident he'll get his powers back. It would be nice to see him be a big part of an episode later.

Loved the ending. Clark's attitude towards Lois was perfect for the situation and it's cute how they smile when the other isn't looking. ^_^ Although Clark did get the desk job awfully quick. Looking forward to all the situations they get into...

This Odyssey ended pretty nicely. Between Clois and GA, I'm gonna get real biased this season.
