Ok this is about the chimmy
i know its over now but it seems like there should have been some advancement after this episode
chloe now knows that jimmy was right
(where is jimmy by the way.... high?)

I still can't get over how mean jimmy is being to chloe
im not saying she doesn't deserve it but it seems a bit out of character
i think the quote was harsh
but they probably can't get them to make up because we are getting ready for CHLOOMSDAY

I think the mean comes from feeling sucker punched. Fool me once (feelings for Clark), shame on me. Fool me twice (taser me for Davis), and I'll just take the painkillers, please. I remember when Jimmy felt he had to lie about the caliber of his parents before he married Chloe, so I think the writers set him up to be fundamentally insecure. Ironic that Tess seems to get credit in her comment about how Clark's denials would have frustrated Lex, and Lois gets to meet the Dalai Lama, but Jimmy gets no respect.

Can they bring back the gee, golly, happy-go-lucky Jimmy from the Superman mythos after what they've done to him? He's supposed to be one of Superman's closest pals, but Smallville keeps putting distance between them.

I really hope Jimmy is getting control of his drug habbit but if he isn't, he may be acting out of character when he was harsh to Chloe because he is high. I hope we see Jimmy as a drug free zone when he comes back.

what happened to that pic of Lois hugging Jimmy? I thought he was supposed to be in Hex and that was Chloe/Lois hugging him

I keep waiting for that. Maybe in season nine. They don't take Jimmy very seriously or consider him important enough. :rolleyes:

speaking of Jimmy, WHERE THE HECK IS HE?

we last left him driving away after pretty much divorcing Chloe, and that's it!

no news about him or anything, other than Chloe mentioning some nasty emails.

I think that now that Chloe knows that Jimmy was telling the truth, she should tell Daivs that he was a freakin idiot for "prooving" that Jimmy was crazy, even though he wasn't. Then she should bother Jimmy until he starts to talk to her, so that they can work out their issues, and be at least friends again. I hoping that they stay married and stuff though. :D

IMO, Chloe deserved the harsh treatment and nasty words from Jimmy, afterall he was telling the truth, she's the one who decided not to believe him. She owes Jimbo an apology. Hopefully they can work things out, maybe even become friends again or better yet get back together.

I think Jimmy reacted the way any husband whose wife cheated on him would act. Breakups are nasty, especially so soon after the wedding and in the circumstances Chimmy's breakup happened they are even worse (groom ripped open by a monster, wife not visting him at the hospital, monster injecting groom with hallucynogens, bride hugging monster in front of husband window, etc). You just can't expect that to end well, with Jimmy understanding the whole situation and welcoming Chloe's emails. With time (and probably some therapy), Jimmy will calm down and be able to have a better relationship with his ex, but right now, he's furious, he feels humiliated and betrayed.

Also, I don't think Jimmy insulted her that badly, because he doesn't seem the kind of person who insults women. If what Chloe said was true, it was very OOC for Jimmy. I know she's trying to justify what she did (which was wrong, in my book), and now she's playing martyr because her husband insults her after broke his heart. I also think it was of bad taste from Chloe's part to comment that to the guy that provoked the breakup in the first place, as I think it was of bad taste to invite him to dinner at her place barely a couple of weeks after her breakup. I would admit them going out for a cup of coffee, but dinner at her place seems too intimate and too fast for my taste.

Maybe Jimmy doesn't deserve someone like Chloe, maybe she deserves to be dating a serial killer, but I'm nore than certain that Jimmy didn't deserve to be treated like he was.

No she stays with someone who can at least show her some support and affection in dreadful times. A guy who she likely more genuinely loved rather than Jimmy, a whiny brat indeed, but hasn't he always been. I mean look at the Superman movies. Deep down a good guy, but that doesn't change the fact his character is annoying.

what dreadful time is chloe going through? jimmy is going through a lot worse than perfect chloe over there so if theres anybody who needs support its jimmy. And i find chloe to be way more annoying than jimmy but ofcourse im going to receive flack for saying that.

I find it odd that they never addressed how Jimmy lived after turbulence.What is Jimmy immune to O.D. cause he took more pills than he was suppost to.

Davis Bloome
04-05-2009, 03:16 PM
Well as you may not have noticed, is Jimmy making so much effort compared to Chloe. No doubt has she sent him e-mails trying to make things up with him, while getting not very affectionate e-mails back or any attempt to forgive. She's his wife and he dishes her like nothing. In a situation where he was in was it such an unlikely scenario that he could have been "seeing things"? And what's wrong with hugging a guy while your husband is getting addicted to painkillers. Yeah the situation was dreadful so getting some support from a friend is not unwanted. and it only got worse after he told her to get away from her.

She needs to file for divorce pronto. I dont want Chloe and Davis together because no matter what Davis is still Doomsday and it will not end well. But I find their relationship whether friendship, hatred on her part and love on his; has a deeper connection and is more mature(if also morbid) than the one she has with Jimmy. Chloe found out Davis was a killer and possibly was going to kill her BF, but she didnt throw a hissy fit and a tantrum like Jimmy in Turbulence. She stuck around trying to figure out the situation the best way Clark, Davis, and herself could. I think it was a mistake for Chloe to lock herself in there with Davis, but I dont think he gave her much of a choice.

I mostly agree with this - except that Chloe didn't really cheat on Jimmy but he felt like she was. In his eyes, she was emotionally cheating on him by believing Davis' words over his. And Jimmy went through a lot - he was practically torn in two at his wedding while watching his bride get carried away by a monster and he couldn't do anything to stop it. Jimmy's reaction to Chloe at the end of Turbulence and his emails, which I think were in response to Chloe emailing him, spring out all that he's gone through physically and psychologically - plus he's on pain meds which can seriously mess with a person's mind.

And Jimmy does NOT deserve to be tasered, no matter what.

I think their marriage was just annulled personally. It's not like it was even consummated. I am rooting for Davis however and loved that she locked herself in with him! I would have done the same. ;) I actually think Davis did give her a choice. He asked her "will you?" He would have let her leave if she wanted to. He was just direct like he always is. I mean, why wouldn't she stay? Not only did Chloe already (in a way) reveal her feelings to Davis with the holding hands on the glass, but she really is the last hope for Davis to control the beast within as far as both are concerned.

Ok this is about the chimmy
i know its over now but it seems like there should have been some advancement after this episode

(where is jimmy by the way.... high?)

I still can't get over how mean jimmy is being to chloe

Yeah... I want to at least know that Jimmy has a home and isn't on his way to lethal overdose. LOL! I think that, marriage or no marriage, Chloe would want to know that too. I mean, Chloe is a caring person. So I think that, no matter how insulting Jimmy is, Chloe would want to make sure that Jimmy was ok before moving on and giving him space.

I understand how Jimmy is feeling right now, especially after "Eternal" but I also hate how hateful Jimmy is being. He's spiteful and bitter and... ug. But I understand why they are doing it. Dating someone two weeks after her marriage breaks up makes Chloe look BAD IMO. I'm fanwanking that it's been a month since her birthday.

Yeah... make way for Chloomsday. But Jimmy's health and Chloe's marital closure should not have been left to offscreenville. While she's mentioning Jimmy's insults why not add another sentence about divorce papers? Gah.

Divorce paper type closure, or at least a better length of time would make Chloe's reaction to the Davis reveal make more sense. She's already lost Jimmy. That door is closed. Then she's had a little time to begin thinking about something new with Davis so that the news of Davis' killings is more about Chloe losing the Davis she thought she knew than it is about Jimmy. That's what I saw anyway. I saw Chloe's sadness that the cool, supportive guy she was starting to love doesn't exist. Then I saw her anger at Davis betraying her. Never did I see any feelings of remorse regarding her treatment of Jimmy in "Turbulence." After two weeks?! That's heartless. After a month and divorce papers... it's still fast but... *shakes head*

I think that long break that we had after "Bride" would have been better after "Turbulence." Jimmy's gone a month and Chloe's still hoping and wearing her ring at her B-day party in "Hex." She takes it off at the end with her "Watchtower" new beginning. Another few weeks and she's ready to start dating again. It makes Chloe look better IMO. Like she takes her vows seriously. Instead they make Jimmy really, really hateful. Yeah it justifies her a little but not enough IMO.

this relationship is so dramatic. they married eachother so shouldn't they be a tad more forgiving, none of this "you don't believe me, well go suck an egg". and then chloe totally forgetting about jimmy in the span of like 2 weeks, which apparently leads to locking herself up with davis. geez...

I'm saying that Jimmy may have viewed it that way. Plus, Jimmy is not in anyway insane. He's was hurt physically, which can take an awful toll on a person psychologically. On top of that, he's taking pain meds which make it hard to think rationally. And is Davis really all that sane? After all, he thinks killing people is a good way to keep the beast at bay. And he's killing people. Oh, not to mention that he drugged Jimmy to keep his morbid secret just that.

Were Jimmy's "nasty" emails justifiable? Maybe not but I can still understand where he's coming from after the major hurt from Chloe. And to see her moving on so quickly adds insult to injury, as the cliche goes.

I also understand Jimmy feeling not talking to Chloe as off now but I don't understand his reasoning behind him if he beleives that Davis is a killer it means that leaving Chloe alone will place her on danger does he hates her enough to want her dead? and if he believes now that he was hallucinating does it means that he doesn't want to talk to her for being right? Is weird either way...I'm blaming the drugs they are just telling him hate chloe and not letting him think straight.

I like new conflicted Jimmy BTW it makes him more interesting before that he was kind of a nonexistent character only used for comic relief, now he seems more real and AA is acting his way out. Kudos to him!:)

I don't think he was thinking that Chloe would necessarily head to Davis' arms - actually, he may not have been doing too much rational thinking at that point. And I don't think he's giving up on her that easily either. I don't think he hates Chloe either - his reaction shows a man who loves deeply but was also hurt deeply. If he didn't love deeply, then the hurt wouldn't have been all that great. Those pain meds can really play with a person's mind...

I don't like the darker Jimmy but I do agree that it gave AA a chance to really shine. The main reason I liked Turbulence so much was because of AA's performance.

Yes that is why I say I blame the meds but you know maybe the meds are letting him voice out some things he wasn't before one of the things about Chimmy that never let me bought it was the fact that both tried to protect each other too much it was not and honest relationship and maybe Jimmy like Chloe didn't expressed a lot of anger over some things so he wouldn't hurt her and all that got piled up and the drugs are letting all this things out.


I don't like the darker Jimmy but I do agree that it gave AA a chance to really shine. The main reason I liked Turbulence so much was because of AA's performance.

I care about him more now and I think it fits this show darker than night tone to have him working out big issues like and addiction. I think he will come through this dark phase wiser either way, not with Chloe of course but better.

To be fair, Jimmy's not fighting all that hard for Chloe either. I think it's perfectly fine for Chloe to move on when she was never in love with Jimmy in the first place. Jimmy and Chloe were never meant to work out because both were lying to themselves and each other the entire time. Jimmy had his epiphany in Turbulence, Chloe got hers in Hex. I say it's about time both move on, although I wish Jimmy was a little more civil considering that he did look like a nut. Who wouldn't believe Davis? It is his instinct to be a good liar even though he doesn't like that he's a good liar. It's not like Chloe had the same knowledge as the audience. And to be even fairer to Chloe, it's not like she was herself when she actually said I Do. She was merely a reflection, a shadow. Who knows if she would have gone through with the marriage at all if she had been her true self. I think she can move on because her heart was never with Jimmy completely to begin with and her feelings for Clark had been gradually transferring to Davis for a while now (although a part of her will always love Clark I believe).

I think it's what Chloe said. Stuff had been brewing under the surface for a while. I don't think Chloe or Jimmy were ever all that in love. Both were deceiving themselves and I think both have come to the realization that they don't even know each other all that well.

Okay, you're right - Jimmy isn't fighting that hard either. They have both given up...but I do think they truly did love each other. Perhaps it wasn't EPIC but not every love story has to be. I think it was genuine, it was real, but maybe it wasn't strong enough to withstand a trial like the one they went through. It's just too bad they had to get married before they could figure all that out. :(

I think they loved each other but were never IN love with each other if that makes sense. And not every story has to be epic, those are just the ones I usually enjoy. And I agree that clearly their love just isn't strong enough to withstand the tough trials. They never even gave it a try which speaks miles to me. I agree they should have figured this all out earlier, but again Chloe wasn't completely herself when she got married.

I think Jimmy will come back stronger. Well maybe come out stronger after a short trial, and then hopefully he can find a girl he can be "easy" with and adore him completely. Just not Chloe.

There are two types of people when it comes to breaking up a relationship or marriage.

1) The one who will fight tooth and nail to try to hold on to a relationship that is done and over.

2) The one that figures if he/she doesn't want me then I don't want them.

I think Jimmy is the 2nd example. Chloe hugging Davis outside of Jimmy's hospital room. Chloe taking Davis side over Jimmy's side without investigating. Now Jimmy has decided that Chloe has chosen Davis over him so he'll let Chloe go. I also see this in Chloe. Jimmy wants to end it so I'll let him go. This kind of attitude will never get them back together because they have both given up.

Ending a marriage is never pretty. Yelling, arguments, swearing, accusing are all possible. Someone has just ripped your heart out and there are feelings that are going to come up to the surface and be aimed at the person that has hurt you. Jimmy was taking his frustration out in his e-mails to Chloe and I really can't blame him.

We heard a one sided conversation from Chloe and of course she is going to make Jimmy look bad for dumping her. There are always two sides and we don't get Jimmy's side. Now, it's poor Chloe because Jimmy is being harsh. I'm not that easily swayed. With what went on between Chloe and Davis this episode, it is clearly evident that Jimmy was right in his assessment of Chloe having feelings for Davis, and I think Jimmy had every right to express his feelings towards Chloe without being made out the bad guy. I'm not happy how the writters handled this conversation about Jimmy between Chloe and Davis. It brought sympathy for Chloe that she didn't deserve.

Chloe had a right to be skeptical about what Jimmy was saying about Davis.

Jimmy has a right to be ticked off that Chloe didn't trust him.

I think the real issue is Clark. Jimmy is still jealous of Clark and Chloe still loves Clark. And somehow throwing Davis into the mix just misdirects and amplifies those feelings so that the truth gets muddled.

I think Jimmy reacted the way any husband whose wife cheated on him would act. Breakups are nasty, especially so soon after the wedding and in the circumstances Chimmy's breakup happened they are even worse (groom ripped open by a monster, wife not visting him at the hospital, monster injecting groom with hallucynogens, bride hugging monster in front of husband window, etc). You just can't expect that to end well, with Jimmy understanding the whole situation and welcoming Chloe's emails. With time (and probably some therapy), Jimmy will calm down and be able to have a better relationship with his ex, but right now, he's furious, he feels humiliated and betrayed.

Also, I don't think Jimmy insulted her that badly, because he doesn't seem the kind of person who insults women. If what Chloe said was true, it was very OOC for Jimmy. I know she's trying to justify what she did (which was wrong, in my book), and now she's playing martyr because her husband insults her after broke his heart. I also think it was of bad taste from Chloe's part to comment that to the guy that provoked the breakup in the first place, as I think it was of bad taste to invite him to dinner at her place barely a couple of weeks after her breakup. I would admit them going out for a cup of coffee, but dinner at her place seems too intimate and too fast for my taste.

Maybe Jimmy doesn't deserve someone like Chloe, maybe she deserves to be dating a serial killer, but I'm nore than certain that Jimmy didn't deserve to be treated like he was.

chloe only kissed Davis once...BEFORE THE WEDDING!! Since then she has had no one to lean on and Davis made sure to make extra time for her (along with isolating her by making her think that jimmy is crazy) so she had no real options at that point.

The only good thing i can see about chloe leaving/dying is that at least i wont have to hear people complain how she is so horrible and deserves to be treated like crap. No one on this show really deserves what happens to them (not even Lana and I hate her) so please just stop with all the bashing and just enjoy the fact that the storyline is at least interesting.

I don't think I'm bashing her here, just pointing out facts and defending Jimmy's position, because I think he has a point. The last sentence of my previous post was a little harsh, but was a response to what someone else said about Jimmy that I thought was unfair bashing of a character I consider a nice person. Because, wether some people like him or not, Jimmy is a good person and he's constantly bashed because he's not hot enough or good enough for Chloe.

Jimmy is being attacked for doing what any person who was badly hurt by his spouse would do in his situation. What happened to him should never happen to anyone and Chloe is partially responsible for his current state. I'm not freeing him from his guilt, I think he exploded too quickly and didn't give her a second chance, but it's clear that her heart was somewhere else and getting back together would only delay the inevitable. She doesn't love him and she will always choose someone else over Jimmy. Contrary to what you might think, I like Chloe, I think she's a nice person, but she made a big mistake and I'm helding her accountable to that. In this case, she's not the victim and I don't symphatize with her current situation because she brought that to herself.

It takes two to break a marriage and Chloe made her contribution to this breakup. Snowbird's post is an excellent one.

^ Yeah, I want to know if they got a divorce or an annulment? I was hoping Chloe would mention that.

Can they bring back the gee, golly, happy-go-lucky Jimmy from the Superman mythos after what they've done to him? He's supposed to be one of Superman's closest pals, but Smallville keeps putting distance between them.

I think what they have done here was put the same type of twist, if you will, on Jimmy just like they did with Perry White. Looking back on all those movies, comics, etc. about Perry White, you would have never imagined that he was a recovering alcoholic. Maybe, just like Perry, Jimmy needs to come up from rock bottom to see the light.

There are two types of people when it comes to breaking up a relationship or marriage.

1) The one who will fight tooth and nail to try to hold on to a relationship that is done and over.

2) The one that figures if he/she doesn't want me then I don't want them.

I think Jimmy is the 2nd example. Chloe hugging Davis outside of Jimmy's hospital room. Chloe taking Davis side over Jimmy's side without investigating. Now Jimmy has decided that Chloe has chosen Davis over him so he'll let Chloe go. I also see this in Chloe. Jimmy wants to end it so I'll let him go. This kind of attitude will never get them back together because they have both given up.

Ending a marriage is never pretty. Yelling, arguments, swearing, accusing are all possible. Someone has just ripped your heart out and there are feelings that are going to come up to the surface and be aimed at the person that has hurt you. Jimmy was taking his frustration out in his e-mails to Chloe and I really can't blame him.

We heard a one sided conversation from Chloe and of course she is going to make Jimmy look bad for dumping her. There are always two sides and we don't get Jimmy's side. Now, it's poor Chloe because Jimmy is being harsh. I'm not that easily swayed. With what went on between Chloe and Davis this episode, it is clearly evident that Jimmy was right in his assessment of Chloe having feelings for Davis, and I think Jimmy had every right to express his feelings towards Chloe without being made out the bad guy. I'm not happy how the writters handled this conversation about Jimmy between Chloe and Davis. It brought sympathy for Chloe that she didn't deserve.

Great post. I agree completely.

i think jimmy reacted the way any husband whose wife cheated on him would act. Breakups are nasty, especially so soon after the wedding and in the circumstances chimmy's breakup happened they are even worse (groom ripped open by a monster, wife not visting him at the hospital, monster injecting groom with hallucynogens, bride hugging monster in front of husband window, etc). You just can't expect that to end well, with jimmy understanding the whole situation and welcoming chloe's emails. With time (and probably some therapy), jimmy will calm down and be able to have a better relationship with his ex, but right now, he's furious, he feels humiliated and betrayed.

Also, i don't think jimmy insulted her that badly, because he doesn't seem the kind of person who insults women. If what chloe said was true, it was very ooc for jimmy. I know she's trying to justify what she did (which was wrong, in my book), and now she's playing martyr because her husband insults her after broke his heart. I also think it was of bad taste from chloe's part to comment that to the guy that provoked the breakup in the first place, as i think it was of bad taste to invite him to dinner at her place barely a couple of weeks after her breakup. I would admit them going out for a cup of coffee, but dinner at her place seems too intimate and too fast for my taste.

Maybe jimmy doesn't deserve someone like chloe, maybe she deserves to be dating a serial killer, but i'm nore than certain that jimmy didn't deserve to be treated like he was.

amen!
