Heh, killing off a character still alive? Well, to be fair, they did that to Johnathan. I know he was dead Pre-Crisis and in the movies, but he IS still alive in the comics. And it's not like Smallville would be the first to do this, just this year, in fact, we've seen JLU, Ultimate Avengers 2, and X-Men 3 all kill off characters very much alive in the comics. As for how I reacted to it...well, I had mixed reactions.
About Clark and Lex, see, isn't it SO much better when Lex has a scene with someone who isn't Lana?! Argh, I love Lex. Wait, why was he a man slut? My memory of that is a little fuzzy.
I like Jimmy, though. He and Ollie are both welcome additions to the show as far as I'm concerned. Wait, Clark's killed before, right? That's one aspect of the show I don't like because they do gloss over it. And it's rare in superhero fiction to see a character deal with the first time they see someone die while they're "on duty", so to speak.
