Tess falling for Clark - Cless???

[Clana4Life]

I actually liked their interaction. I know that there was some talk during the summer about Clark and Tess possibly getting together. I figured this has been scrapped, but after watching Tess tonight, I don't know. She now seems interested in Clark. And for a moment, I was sort of swept up in the possibility of Cless - Clark trying to save Tess from her inner demons, but upon realizing that she can't be (or doesn't want to be) he sadly has to let her go, or worse, fight against her. I don't know that this will happen, but I think the writers are throwing it out there and are hinting at the possibility. Would you all be open to a short-term Cless pairing before Lois and Clark get together? It would be an interesting dynamic.

[ChlarkerClanaerCloiser]

I'm finding this to be interest too. This Clark and Tess have the chemistry. I am wondering if I am to change my screenname to ChlarkerClanaerClosierClesser? :D

[Clana4Life]

You might have to soon. :)

[Blugolds22]

I liked their interaction too. I would be all for this relationship if Clark hadn't already hinted to Lois about his interest in her. I wouldn't mind seeing them together in an episode similar to Lexmus, though.

That might work. I think it will be a while before Lois and Clark get together. Clark didn't meet her at the coffee house and I think she won't even bring it up again. The door is closed as far she is probably concerned. So there may be time for a relationship (short-lived) in between. Tess is intense. I wonder how long it would be before Clark started to become interested in her. He's already taking up for her and putting on blinders.

[nic25]

I could definately feel the heat between them!

[Alexander III]

I start to have this gross feeling for Cless. Clark and the girl version of Lex?? EW man.

[Alania]

Oh, great, that is just what this man needs, one more ship on him :rolleyes:. Why have just two when you can have three or four? The more, the merrier. :rolleyes:

[WELLINGWIFE#2]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo clark!!!!! Run run run far away>>she"s not the little mermaid>>she"s more like ursula !!!!

[6-Super-Man -5]

This getting pretty interesting, even for a Cloiser addict like me.

[Faby]

you know Tess is really hot and she can be the rebound for Clark...OMG that was mean from me...What I meant is that it could cause some interesting scenes between Lois and Clark..Jelousy anyone? It will be fun...I mean she even said, "once we get back, I can take you shopping." Now she is determine to buy him things, this could really piss Lois up...lol
Well, I am a cloiser, but i think it will be nice to watch some type of interaction before we get the real deal(Clois).

LOL Alania. :lol: As long as they don't bring another woman on the show, it stops at Cless.

Alexander III

I think in a lot of ways Tess is different than Lex. I actually think she would keep Clark's secret. Deep down I think she wants to be loved (if her story about her past can be believed).

I agree. I don't mind short-term.

[LightSeeker]

There was something going on between them and they had good chemistry but I prefer my Clois:D

[warriorrenegade]

No. Tess isn't falling for Clark. She opened up to Clark in hopes he would open up to her. Just doing as Lex taught her. Nothing more.

Perhaps along the way, she might actually fall for him??

[warriorrenegade]

There's an attraction Im sure. He's a handsome man, but she's into more of the Lex type of man I believe. Clarks may be to goodie goodie for her. Right now in my eyes she's just wanting to learn more about him. Lex's journal is probably full of juicy details of who he believes Clark to be and its just really caught her intrest right now and she's looking to get to the bottom of it.

[pjack]

Yes I agree and being a female she is using her charm to try to help the situation. She's HOT!. lol

[SupermanRox]

Oh hell no! Gawd, I hope not! What a disaster.

I can see where she suspects his secret and now that she's gotten confirmation of it, she is in awe of him.

I think it would be hard for her not to fall in a little in love with Clark. I think every female who's come within 5 ft of him have fallen for him at some point.

[davidbrenton]

Unfortunately yess to Cless. I have a feeling this will hang around through next year. And it will give Lois & Tess an added interesting dimension to their relationship.

But honestly, I cringe at them together. I'm not sure what it is. It just doesnt feel right at all.

['Tonio09]

It'd be interesting to see. Call me crazy but if they go that route im sensing a triangle between Clark Tess and Oliver next season...

[Dominicus]

This is quite a amusing. Tess using her horrible feminine wiles, she's doing a Lex and playing Clark. I can hear the violins playing, her performance was hilarious to me.

[AndiGirl]

I dont think Tess is really falling for Clark.
She is just the type of woman who knows how to use her sexuality to get what she wants. And she was definitely laying it on thick with Clark.

She playes the vulnerable card, and told him about her past...
Which I hate to say it, because it was such a sad moment...I think everything she said and did on the plane was to get information out of Clark.

HECK, Clark tried to get her drunk for the very same reason! :lol:

I know, can you believe Clark tried to get someone drunk?!!! Where's the thread about that. Anyway, because Tess is a woman, I think it's possible that while she is trying to bait Clark for information, she may genuinely fall in love with him along the way. Everyone does. :) I think she'd be torn between her dark side, (which I think is very dark), and the side of her that is good. She was a different person before Oliver and Lex. It would be interesting to see her struggle with this, knowing that her relationship with Clark hangs in the balance. I would love to see Chloe tell Clark to take off the blinders (it's funny how both of them have them on at the moment) and have Clark continue to defend Tess. Top it all off with the interaction it would cause between Clark and Oliver and Lois and Clark and Oliver and Tess and Lois and Tess. I mean it would provide a lot of material. Tess would of course embrace her dark side completely and Clark would end up fighting against her. Again, I would want this to be a short-term thing before Clois. After seeing them tonight, I'm kind of open to the idea of Cless.

[Karafan1]

I'm really hoping Cless never ever happens on Smallville..I want more Clois!!!

[Clana4Life]

I don't think it would prevent Clois. I believe Clois is going to happen, but TPTB like to drag stories like Clois out, so they get together later rather than sooner. I thought that Cless might be a good in-between.

[Lilah]

I think she'll fall for Superman more than Clark. Tess is more in love with the illusion of her hero, than she is with Clark Kent. It'll be interesting to see her cause a rift between Lois and Clark.

[bychance]

They did have somewhat of an odd chemistry. Minimal, mind you. I don't need another ship in SV.

[Tebow15]

I don't want a Cless.

[bobby1984]

i liked it, u could feel some chemistry between, and about clark and lois, like ealier in the season chloe say something about a tringle of, clark, lana and lois, and no with lana gone, it could be clark, tess, and lois, that would make for a good story but was really feeling it tonight between clark and tess, it was a little mysterious though behind it, was she feeling clark or is there a motive behind it like lex, but i think the way she talked tonight with her past people in her life having someone like clark to be her knight in shining armor makes her feel good and gives her a chanceof steeping out of her lex ways but there is that chance of her being power hungry like him, but really felt them tonite and thought it was great and like to see more of them

[BadToad]

He's Clark! Everyone falls for him. :lol:

I think Tess has another agenda, obviously. But I also think she's genuinelly interested in Clark. Their dynamic and interaction was, by far, the best part of this episode, and really interesting stuff.

[myankskent]

I really don't see the reason why Cless would make a good storyline for Clark. His romantic life is a mess to begin with and I'd rather not see him get involved with a person who is clearly playing him.

[Dominicus]

It'll be interesting to see her cause a rift between Lois and Clark.The woman was in love with Lex Luthor for goodness sakes, this is all too amusing. Tess is just a liar, a terrible flirt, she won't be the rift maker. Ollie will make sure of that. I suspect Maximum would make a return over the ugly looking pair. :p

Well, for one thing, TW and CF are awesome together.

I don't think anyone is actually advocating a Cless romance (well, in my SV AU version, I would :D ). Instead, I think what seems exciting about Cless is the dancing around each other, the intellectual duel thing.

I guess for me, its something about Clark, it pairs him with an interesting actress, and it has the potential to show Clark using his wits rather then just his powers.

Funny thing is I love Clana and I'm a Clanaer who was warming to Clois. Now Cless has piqued my interest a bit. I would just love to see Tess struggle within herself -- all the while wanting to be with Clark, but equally wanting to give in to her dark side.

[Larel]

No. Tess isn't falling for Clark. She opened up to Clark in hopes he would open up to her. Just doing as Lex taught her. Nothing more.


Agreed I saw nothing more between them, WTH was I watching a different show?:\

['Tonio09]

It'd be fair though. Lois got to hook up with the last editior (Grant Gabriel) now it's Clark's turn lol.

[Clois4eva89]

I would love some Cless before Clois happens. I could see see some sparks during the episode.

[clois-destiny-forever]

Ummmmmm, NO!

That's what I was thinking to but I don't know it's a gray area. She's not Lex and I think she's still mad at him for putting that nano camera in her

[Theshadow129x]

for some reason this episode made me a littel hot for tess! lol to be honest. i think she can be trusted she just needed confirmation on what Lex suspected on Clark. If anything this also makes her more dangerous since she knows what he can do.

[Clana4Life]

Maybe the writers were just throwing this episode out there to see how the viewers would respond to a possible Cless pairing. It was interesting the way the camera lingered on her watching Clark walk away at the end. I think it's possible that she might start to love him but end up working against him or hating him because he will never trust her enough to tell her his secret. There's a lot the writers could do there.

[Alaska Young]

Oddly, I wouldn't mind seeing some Cless. I'd rather sit through that than watch Clois.

[Clana4Life]

Cless would be new and unexpected. I doubt anyone believes it would be long lasting, but I think it could be entertaining. The actress that plays Tess is just really good. I've seen her strong. Now I'd like to see her being made vulnerable by love.

[Mai4et0]

Tess is very sensitive woman and you get it all wrong there's nothing romantic between them, I think she is just trying to get Clark to trust her, no kisses no nothing! And besides there's Lois, I sereously doubt after all Lana crap that has been happening after 12 episode they'll do the same mistake all over again !

This would be different from Lana, though. Actually it might just be one sided. Tess might fall for Clark who might just be indifferent to her.

[Mai4et0]

I don't agree! I think Clark needs someone by his side who won't be so flighty and obssesed about protect his secret.. And I think Tess is the right person.

We don't need another triangle in the spot cause we'll have Clark/Lois/RBB very soon

[ChloeBot]

Cless cannot exist unless it is one side (from Tess side, obviously) because she is a bad woman and a murderer and Clark would never fall for someone like that. He falls for women who are innately good, at least who start that way since we all know that Lana took a turn for the worst. So Clark being into Tess would be very OOC if you ask me...

Yes. That is the only way I can see it ever happening. Clark would never fall in love with someone like Tess, and besides Clark has too many romantic conflicts already. Is she in love with Lana? Lois? Chloe? Shelby?

Do we really need to add Tess to the list? No!

I saw that too. Tess isn't into Clark. She's into Ollie and probably would be into Lex as well, but Clark? He's not her type. She likes them with an edge and Clark is too goody-two-shoes for her. Tonight was all an act for Tess. And Clark fell into her trap because she ended up getting what she wanted, the truth about Clark being the RBB which I believe that now Tess knows that for sure.

[batfinx]

It'd be fair though. Lois got to hook up with the last editior (Grant Gabriel) now it's Clark's turn lol.

My thought is that if Cless happens, Clark better catch the same hell over it that Lois got for hooking up with Grant. I guess Clark sleeping his way into the Daily Planet at least explains how he got the job with no education or experience :lol: On the other hand anything is better than Clana, so I'm conflicted :D

[devilneedsaride]

I think it would be a very interesting relationship to watch. I wouldn't say I'm shipping it, per se, but I'd kind of love for it to happen just so I can see how it turns out.

[Theshadow129x]

i think we all are a little hungry for Clark to just date someone else besides Lois and Lana. I think that will make things more interesting and more unpredictable. makes better television to be honest.

[Clark/Lois-fan]

She's not falling for him in any romantic way. I really hope the writers will pursue a friendship route with Cless. That could be really interesting :)

[Jack-El49]

^^^ Interesting to hear you say that. I'm a die-hard Cloiser but Cless was sort of appealing in a train-wreck sort of way. It would be interesting to see Tess trying to romance some information out of Clark (like she did last night) and instead of her getting anything substantial, she ends up falling for him or becoming a good character. She's kind of a gray character right now - sometimes good, sometimes bad.


This would be different from Lana, though. Actually it might just be one sided. Tess might fall for Clark who might just be indifferent to her.

That's what I was thinking. It may be a bit of leverage on the Clois relationship in this way. Lois, after Infamous, will likely be ignoring Clark's advances (if he ever makes any) and instead, fawning over the RBB as a way to string Clark along. Then, suddenly Tess appears and is hitting on Clark (continually calling him to her office, stopping by his desk with little hints) and Lois realizes that the RBB isn't as appealing or effective as she thought.

He has yet to date Lois. If you think so, refer to last week's ending.

[JNottle]

Yeah, Tess seemed to be putting a lot of extra emotion in on purpose, at the end you saw her smirk which made it look like she thinks she's won, which she kind of has since she got what she wanted, but on another note, I think she wanted to see how much opening up to Clark would get him into opening up, I mean, she told her life story and he did hestitate a bit before he said their's nothing different about him, which means he must think a little different about her than before, and then because she couldn't get him to open up she did it the easy way, and that the end he defended her to Chloe, which proves she's wormed her way in. It would be an intresting pairing, even for a sort while.

[princessdiana]

Tess is just being manipulative. She's using her womanly wiles to get what she wants out of a very naive Clark. Sexiness, flirting, makes him stumble over himself and makes him vunerable. Tess does a great job at it. Loved her smirk when she paid off the captain.

Not sure we will see Cless only because Clark needs to concentrate on the hero thing now. I'm a Clois fan through and through but I don't think we'll see Clois either. Hints here and there as always, but I think they have made their point that its just not the right time for Clois yet.

Tess and Clark had some great chemistry but I think Tess and Ollie are pretty hot together and I'd like to see more of that.

I don't think Tess is being manipulative to Clark. I have a feeling all she wants from him is safety and protection.
She has realised what kind of person Clark is (kind,optimistic,sees the good in people)and wants him in her life.

Personally I'm starting to become a big fan of their relationship.

Waiting to see what PS3 have in mind for those two...

[SupesComicFan]

I saw Tess MAYBE interested in Clark, not sure in what capacity, but I did not get, for one second, that Clark was interested in Tess at all. I was actually happy that was the case. He is appropriately suspicious of her and her intentions.

[lauraforever]

YES, OMG, YES!!!

If anyone wants to participate in the Clark/Tess Relationship Thread, be my guest. :)

[Fly by guy]

She's on Smallville, she's attractive, she's straight, looks good in a tight dress: of course she's into Clark. Like I stated, she's on Smallville.

here is one short story in case people are interested. Short story based on a scene from Turbulence will come soon.

[costas22]

I think that any chance Cless had,went out the door when Oliver Queen was brought back.However they do make a great dynamic because of how different they are.And after 8 years,it's nice to see TW interact with someone other than KK,AM or ED.

[smilingalways2]

I think throwing in a little Cless would spice things up alright. ;) She could be Smallville's version of Cat Grant. It's very likely that she will continue to try to get Clark to confirm his secret (she already knows) resorting to an arsenal Lex didn't have: feminine charms. I would surely love to see how Clark tries to squirm his way out of her traps. Seeing a little Lois vs Tess at DP would be fun too. At the same token though, in my opinion, Clark should also feel some major jealousy of Lois. Bring in some gorgeous male reporter or editor to "distract" Lois at the DP too. :rotfl:

[BadToad]

If this was a different show, with different writers who could better handle complexity and ambiguity, I definitely think a Cless relationship could be worked in, and actually be an interesting storyline for Clark. But this is SV, with these writers, so I think its just best to keep it to my imagination. But I do totally enjoy their scenes together.

[Mickey_Bickey]

No, Tess is not falling for Clark. She completely manipulated him last night. She could care less about him. I don't want to see anything more than what we saw last night between them. The woman's a femme fatal.

I want Clark to realize soon that Tess is just like Lex and that she tricked him. I hope they don't start the dramatics or drawn out triangles! YAWN!

Hopefully they stick with the only triangle that makes sense on this show, and that's Lois/Clark/RBB. Anything else is going to be a let down again.

[Iluvgreen]

I don't necessarily want them to get together.... but I like their interaction. I was Tss to be with Oliver. But Tess and Clark could be cute friends.

[bigblueplanet]

I would say Cless is much more easier to root for than Clex, but still, personally I don’t see any possibility from Clark’s side. Besides, it will be just too odd for me …… well, I think Annie (aka cloisthelegendbegins) described it best. ※Hope you don’t mind I quoted a part of your review in here, Annie!


I’m really hoping they don’t try and go the romantic relationship route with this. Ollie with Lois is one thing. Ollie with Tess is another. Clark with Tess after Tess with Ollie and Ollie with Lois, when I know Clark ends up with Lois? I’m sorry, it’s just a little too… swingers party… for me…
Well, for me too……… :\

[LoveHurts38]

Tess is only intrested to know if he is the RBB and Clark does not really trust her.

[Mickey_Bickey]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo clark!!!!! Run run run far away>>she"s not the little mermaid>>she"s more like ursula !!!!

[xHTx]

In Turbulence, Tess reminds me of Lex in Season 1 and 2, where she is investigating him and honest with her feelings towards him at the same time.

If Clark doesn't abandon Tess, maybe there is hope in turning Tess good again...maybe.

[melissan02]

I think that's exactly the motive for Tess! She's a woman who can use her feminine charm to lure and entice...yes, even Clark! HOWEVER, Clark isn't the type to fall for that...even if he sees it might make Lois jealous, I just don't see him "playing" that card.
He's going to be falling more and more for Lois!;) Lois may not give him the time of day, but that will play into the Lois/RBB/Clark triangle.
Tess may try her luck, but Clark won't play. I just don't see it.:\

You are probably right.I there were initial plans about a Clark-Tess attraction but they opted to have her get involved with Oliver in order for him to have a story.However we don't know how she would react if she found out the secret.It was the same witl Lex.If he knew the secret in Seasons 1-3 he could have helped Clark out.

[Bizarrolover]

I think she finds him attractive (who wouldn't), that she wants to know why Lex was so obsessed with him and that she's totally manipulating him to obtain what she wants. On the other hand, Clark is too naive to notice it.

It seems to me that she knows his secret now. Do you think she was really unconscious while he jumped out? The last scene with her is paying off the pilot with a big smirk on her face! She knows.

She was unconscious.Clark made sure of that,lol!You know how she figured out?She saw there were 2-5 paraschutes and Clark told her there was one.She really got him there.

[superjude]

Sure, let's have her be the Rebound from Lana girl!!

Then, when that is done after one episode---- Let's move on to the real deal- with Lois!

[Demien]

are you freaking kidding me :D....Cless :DDDD

[melissan02]

You are probably right.I there were initial plans about a Clark-Tess attraction but they opted to have her get involved with Oliver in order for him to have a story.However we don't know how she would react if she found out the secret.It was the same witl Lex.If he knew the secret in Seasons 1-3 he could have helped Clark out.What?!?!?:eek::confused: Lex Luthor never would have helped Clark out...this is Lex Luthor we're talking about!:rolleyes: You know...the Lex Luthor that's still alive (in offscreenville), but no less alive!!:lol:

She's a good actress, Costas! I'm not so sure it was just the parachutes, but you may be right. She's very crafty!!

He will never die,lol!I just feel that back then he wasn't a lost cause.Clark's constant denial in letting him closer was one of the reasons for them growing apart.Lex said so in Arctic.I know that Lex was supposed to be evil from the start but in Smallville the writers opted to make Clark's unwillingness to trust him part of the reason he became evil.

[BAMAGIRL]

He doesn't give Lois a chance, who he knows is good and loyal? Yet he allows himself to fall into a relationship with Tess who has a checkered past? Don't see it.

[Jedimaster_TTBaby]

If this was a different show, with different writers who could better handle complexity and ambiguity, I definitely think a Cless relationship could be worked in, and actually be an interesting storyline for Clark. But this is SV, with these writers, so I think its just best to keep it to my imagination. But I do totally enjoy their scenes together.

I agree with this post a lot. There is no way that Smallville, in its present state can pull this off. It would have been a very interesting storyline, because i really like their chemistry for two characters that are almost complete opposites...but that's that.

I just hope they pull Clois off properly.

[rajman]

i'm sure if lex was a girl he would be too.

[Tompouce]

In Turbulence, Tess reminds me of Lex in Season 1 and 2, where she is investigating him and honest with her feelings towards him at the same time.

If Clark doesn't abandon Tess, maybe there is hope in turning Tess good again...maybe.
It is my feeling too. I am sure redemption can exist for Texx. I say it since the beginning. She has lost her way but there is something to save in her. I think Clark could help her to find it again. Like Lex tried to be better becoming Clark's friend thought we all know his obsession destroyed everything. But it is obvious Tess's redeption won't work in SV. The purpose of her relationship with Clark is not to be like this. So to me, we won't see that at all.
She seems interested by the man in Clark (apart his mysterious side) but tell me, how a woman could resist to this man ?:pBut her purpose is to know what is really going on. I think it will stay like that. In another world, Clark would have helped her to become good again. And if we were not so far in the serie, maybe they would have created an attraction stronger than what we have seen yesterday. But they have to focus on Clois now. I really don't think it will go further

[Mythosgirl]

I hate the idea of Clark and Tess. I think there is chemestry, but there was chemestry between Lex and Clark. I think one more romance triangle will harpoon this show. Also, it should be clear from the last scene that Tess is only in it for Tess, and I would like Clark to have someone loyal to him. I hate to see him hoodwinked and gullible (again).

[zHeN_zHeN]

Clark and Tess?! Seriously?

Oh, I get it! So, it's really Lex in drag, right?

Yes, of course! Now it's all starting to make sense!

Clexess!!! :lol::p

[Theshadow129x]

^^^ Interesting to hear you say that. I'm a die-hard Cloiser but Cless was sort of appealing in a train-wreck sort of way. It would be interesting to see Tess trying to romance some information out of Clark (like she did last night) and instead of her getting anything substantial, she ends up falling for him or becoming a good character. She's kind of a gray character right now - sometimes good, sometimes bad.



That's what I was thinking. It may be a bit of leverage on the Clois relationship in this way. Lois, after Infamous, will likely be ignoring Clark's advances (if he ever makes any) and instead, fawning over the RBB as a way to string Clark along. Then, suddenly Tess appears and is hitting on Clark (continually calling him to her office, stopping by his desk with little hints) and Lois realizes that the RBB isn't as appealing or effective as she thought.

He has yet to date Lois. If you think so, refer to last week's ending.

I know he has yet to date Lois. What I was saying was that I think it would add more depth to Clark if he dated someone else and at that someone he kind of suspected of being a danger to him. So far in the series they have hinted at him being with people that we the viewers knew he would always be with i.e. Lana and the hints at the future with him being with Lois. Having a new relationship with a new character would be good to be honest because it would make things more unpredictable. I for one dont want to just see Clark remain single until he becomes Superman and date Lois. If dating Tess means he gets some then its a good thing.

Here's how the last scene of Cless should have gone :p

I agree with you, Theshadow129x. We know the endgame, but there are still stories that can occur in-between endgame. I think this would be very unpredictable.

Jack-El49, I love this! I'd like her to try her manipulations but end up falling in love with him. Wouldn't that be a big surprise for her. She might also be the catalyst to build up Lois' interest in Clark again. Great idea. What are your thoughts on Clark returning her affections? Do you think it should be one-side (just Tess in love with Clark) or both falling for each other?

[costas22]

I think that last night was the best chance for Cless to happen.Did you hear what Jimmy said when he went into Tess' office?To put Davis' subject at the top of her "to do" list!I thought that that spot was reserved for Clark!

[SparkleforSmallville]

Their strong chemistry got my attention, I am loving the Cless sparks!
I sure hope they keep Cassidy around for S9.:)

[SnowBird]

Tess is a bad apple. You know what they say - put a bad apple with good apples and they'll turn bad as well. I really don't want to see Tess and Clark together. He already tried to get Tess drunk and shut off her air supply from being around her. That was very un-Clark-like. Maybe the writers would like to take Clark down a dark path for awhile like they have done to other characters, but I really hope they don't.

[MetroGirl06]

While I doubt it'll happen, I'm open to the idea of Cless. As others have said, its a fascinating dynamic to watch unfold, 'cause we know it'll crash and burn, leaving everyone scarred along the way. As a writer, I can see the appeal. But I think tptb are only going to make their relationship a sort of battle of wits. Either way, they got good chemistry on screen. The actors have a lot to work with off each other.

[Smallville Vamp]

Tess falling for Clark, eh? WOW, just think how Linda Lake put a world of hurt on Clark in a short period of time, imagine what TESS could and probably WOULD do to him? Linda was bad news to Clark(until you know), but compaired to Tess, Lake would probably rank up there about as dangerous as a toothless cannibal to him. :eek:

Might be interesting(to some), but I prefer him staying single over scratching that man eaters itch.

[Poyntz]

Ya know. I liked Their Chemistry together. I actually liked Tess in this episode (except the pay off at the end of course lol) Actually I would of almost like to she her casted as Lois. She would of been great.

I think ED is good. Cassidy could have worked as Lois as well. They are both good actors, so I don't think you have to duck. :) If/when a new Superman movie comes out (whether it's a sequel to Superman Returns or a reboot), I think Cassidy could play a good Lana Lang. She already has the red hair to boot.
