Every Season Of Smallville Ranked, Worst To Best

:0:0

Smallville is the longest-running live-action superhero series, providing a decade of interesting takes on the Superman mythos. The show stars Tom Welling as Clark Kent and Michael Rosenbaum as Lex Luthor. It primarily serves as a Superman origin story, yet it also gives his nemesis a fairly emotional origin as well. Their dynamic fueled the earlier episodes before later seasons took on other threats within the DC universe. A big draw of Smallville is the stellar cast, which also included Annette O"Toole, John Schneider, John Glover, Kristen Kreuk, Erica Durance, and more.
Despite going through so many changes, there"s really not a single season of Smallville that is bad. There are bad episodes for sure, but each season has redeeming qualities, whether they"re strong performances or standout stories. As such, a low ranking does not mean that the season is low quality. After all, when a show lasts as long as Smallville, it has to evolve, and those evolutions will resonate differently with different audiences. Here are all 10 seasons of Smallville, ranked:
10 Season 5 Has Both Some Of The Best And Some Of The Worst Of Smallville It Starts Strong, But Climaxes Too Early In Episode 12

Season 5 of Smallville had its work cut out for it. All 4 of the previous seasons were set while Clark, Lana Lang, and Chloe Sullivan were all still in high school. Even when the stories differed, they all had that basic framework to rely on. Season 5 had the task of taking its younger cast members to college while tying their storylines together. As a result, it fumbles a bit. Naturally, this is the time when real-life friendships and romances start to falter, but Smallville keeps those intact.
The saving graces of Season 5 are the introduction of Brainiac and the final outing of Jonathan Kent. Brainiac is a force to be reckoned with, and he"s like a cockroach that Clark can"t seem to squash. Alternatively, Jonathan Kent is such a positive force for both Clark and the audience. Losing him, launches both into adulthood, without their "dad" to guide them. It"s a harsh inevitability, as Jonathan typically dies early in Clark"s life in other Superman media, but Smallville makes this moment especially impactful.
