You just need to be OK with them taking some liberties with the Supes-universe. At times it feels like a repeated formula of "new superpowered villain shows up and is ultimately defeated", but the series is best when it goes deeper than that. I've seen every episode and I'm still an avid watcher. If you want to see a show about superpowers and an elseworld version of Superman, then you’ll enjoy it.

However, by the end of season 7 I felt that they were just digging too much. If they don't get started on having Clark actually becoming Superman soon, the series might not have the opportunity to. I am happy to see that they are still doing well, and Welling does an amazing job of playing Clark Kent, I have always thought that. Along with some other powerhouse actors on the show playing roles that fit them very well, I still consider myself a fan of the show. Unfortunately though if they do not do something soon, the show might just fall victim to a horrible and unforgivable ending (example :Sliders... anyone?). On another note, I would love to see Welling play in "The Man of Steel" - It's not like he doesn't already know the ins and outs of his character.
