It's just not FAIR! I think everyone should take a moment to look at their lives and be really thankful for where they live and the fact they get Smallville first.
While you tune in tonight, just before the wonderful new episode airs, remember the poor smallville starved people who aren't as priveledged as you are.
Thankyou.

But yes, I do feel sorry for them. We on the other hand have to wait as well for shows that are shown overseas too! I guess it sucks either way

And here I was complaining that people on the east coast were going to see the new Smallville 3 hours before I was but now after seeing that people outside of America have to wait even longer.........
I'm still complaining but when does the new Smallville air for people outside of America?

The UK has taken a break from SV just before 'Abyss'. I have no idea when it will be back if the US is gonna have another break through February. Bummer :(

You don't know what E4 (channel smallville is aired on in the UK) is like. They could take a notion to wait 6 months before showing the continuation. Thanks anyway:)

What sucks about E4 is they gave no reason for why they stopped. I wanted to download it from Itunes... but nope, not gonna happen now.
Lol.. not really Howard. The justice league in the comics incorporates heroes from all over the globe, and they stand for universal justice. That american side with Superman was scraped long ago. He's meant to be a figure for truth and justice everywhere.

What!! Erica! I'm from Argentina and I watch new episodes of Smallville every Tuesday night and only 6 weeks after it airs in the US. Also, Warner Channel airs old episodes every day, from the Pilot to s6 and then they start all over again. There is no way you could miss that! (unless you didn't have cable). By the way, where did you stay?

I've already seen up to 'Bride' (other means...lol..that we do not speak of here) but I like recording the show on E4 as well so I don't have to strain my eyes trying to make out who Clark is saving on a 15" screen.

Exactly, I like to watch the show with good quality visual and sound. It makes the experience so much better. I thought we were going to be in sync with the American viewers when E4 continue to show season 8 Smallville during the hiatus but nooooo, they decide to stuff us with the above garbage!!

I live in hope that some day E4 will be about more than 'Big Brother' or 'Skins'...it's not like they're better shows than Smallville!

Okay, I hope the "there's nothing good on in England" comments are referring to the present, and that you haven't forgotton a certain show that will have some specials this year and return full time in 2010.
P.S. My Avatar is a clue.

For France, if everything is okay, not before september, I fear. Can you imagine ? I know you can't ;)

The same here...Usually, it was on February but I don't know why, the season 7 was aired only on September, so I guess it will be the same for the season 8. That is why, I decided not to wait, it was unbearable:p

... doctor who is the best example of sh*t british acting!
*hides in safe house*
no i mean, i guess that was actually part of the greatness of it, that it isn't supposed to be taken too seriously and that the acting reflects it's almost self mocking tones... i guess it got even worse because i HATE Catherine Tate and that kind of humour so i didn't enjoy it much
i very much prefer Torchwood, which seems to just be a better quality, more interesting and engaging show
then again, i've just said all that, but i find Smallville quite badly written and acted sometimes and still enjoy it!

:lol: I sort of agree with you here, along as you are only talking about the last 3 doctors. I really loved the old ones (Pertwee and Baker) but these recent ones I just can't get into at all. They are like kiddy versions of Doctor Who.
I agree about Tate.
But i think I can honestly say my most hated British program/comedy show at the minute is Little Britain. I absolutely hate it and am sort of embarrassed that they are now showing it in America, as if this is the best British shows can offer when it is probably the least funny show ever. Bring back shows like Father Ted and Blackadder if you ask me.:)
