If Jimmy is one who dies. . .

[ManOfSteel87]

I'm gonna be super pissed now that he knows Clark's secret. Plus, he is an iconic Superman character so he can't die.

[~*Lois & Clark Fan*~]

Jimmy was sacrificed for Chloe and I'm PO'd about it

[SuperJedi]

But Jimmy don't die in the comics/movies!!!

[BROKENTOS]

it looks like jimmy will be the one to die who is brought back and davis is gone for good

[kryptonhero25]

Well you better start getting pissed cus I am incredibly upset by his death. Unless he comes back to life somehow but I doubt it which is absolutely ridiculous because how can you kill THE Jimmy Olsen!!!!

[amberdawn]

I'm done with this show.

[ManOfSteel87]

I like Chole and everything, but you are exactly right Jimmy was sacrificed for her and that is BS. PS3 REALLY dropped the ball with this one.

[Spyderwalk]

Are you kidding me???? Freaking kid brother? !@#!@$%!@#!@#!%$ writers..Epic FAIL!

[ManOfSteel87]

So the kid brother is the REAL Jimmy Olsen who is Superman's Pal? Is this like the wholeChole = Lois debate now? Absolute crap writers, you guys ruined an otherwise great episode.

[FLyxNERD]

the jimmy that died his real name was Henry James Olsen....

[puppiesnkittens]

So how in the world are they gonna call this kid Jimmy in the future then? LOL What is his name?

[cma_454]

Smallville.
Has.
Jumped.
The.
Shark!

[eggie]

Yeah, I noticed that, which makes me think his kid brother is supposed to be the iconic Jimmy Olsen...I am way bummed :(

[KSiteTV]

At least now my avatar will make sense. ;)

[slifer151]

I agree with the other poster, I think the kid we saw is the "real" Jimmy Olsen that we know from films and comics etc. However, the episode was still pretty poor

[myankskent]

I don't want to hear anymore about mythologies. You kill Jimmy, you lose me when it comes to the mythologies, plain and simple. Smallville is not the story of Superman.

I was thinking the same thing

[Mrs. Superman]

wow what a load of bull...so that wasnt the real jimmy? Worst season finale EVER. Seriously making me question whether I wanna watch this bs next season...wtf

[__jb]

If they want to get Jimmy into the correct time line with the Superman mythos... What about Lois... she shouldn't really be here either...

I wonder where... or when Lois ended up?

She didn't think it was odd... Clark's writing a secret letter... then RBB gives her a secret letter? Come on Lois...

[BIGBMH]

This episode really saddened me. I wasn't always down with bringing Jimmy in since he shouldn't be as old as Clark, but he really grew on me. I kind of looked at Smallville as an alternate or ultimate DC universe, so I was willing to accept that Jimmy was Clark's peer.
I'm shocked. I really have to let this sink in.

[amalie]

I'm so annoyed right now. What the hell was that all about. They pulled a Chlois with Jimmy.

[disciples of zod]

i'm soooooooooooooo sad! :(

he BETTER NOT BE DEAD 4 REAL!!! otherwise, me D-O-N-E! seriously. he was my favorite character. they can't do that to us!!!

~K

[redeem147]

I bet the younger brother's first name is James (since Jimmy's was his middle name). I thought that was brilliant. You're set up that Jimmy can't die because he's iconic, but they've set up a younger character (as Jimmy should be) with a bow tie. And Jimmy's death is then unexpected. I'll miss him, because I really liked the character, but it all makes sense.

[disciples of zod]

NOOOO!!! What the crap? He found out about Clark. Not ok. Me really sad now.

~H

[Tinyeppy]

Jimmy Dead and a kid brother as replacement. He's got to be the real Jimmy of the comic. Interesting way to fix a slight age difference.

Beside this is Smallville mythology not Superman true mythology it's an interpretation of the man of steel.

It really hurt to see him go like that. :(

[Hero66]

But at least Lois is the right age....Jimmy was too old and by doing what they did, they corrected that mistake....

by the way the real Jimmy's name is James Bartholemew Olsen and has been for about 60 years. I knew something was wrong when I heard Henry James Olsen.

[FLyxNERD]

i mean im kinda glad they took this route..having jimmys little brother being the real iconc jimmy olsen....

[amandaa125]

WTF doesnt dc have some sort of rule saying they cant kill off iconic characters? And if the kid brother is the really jimmy olsen then isnt he a little too young??

[__jb]

Remember Fiora told Davis that he was the spitting image of his Father... Zod... Now we know who will play Zod next year...

[Lurchdaddy87]

the jimmy that died his real name was Henry James Olsen....

The Olsen from the comics is James Bartholomew Olsen. So I think that was a clever way to make that work into the Superman lore.

[Hero66]

In the comics, Jimmy is about 18-20 when Clark shows up at the planet...he was always meant to be real young. HE just always looked older in the movies.

[ims001]

I don't want to hear anymore about mythologies. You kill Jimmy, you lose me when it comes to the mythologies, plain and simple. Smallville is not the story of Superman.

ITA!!!!

[jojojones]

Evidently, anyone who finds out Clark's secret ends up like the proverbial "red shirt" in Star Trek. Dead. lol

[Var-Zol]

This was bull!

[Lurchdaddy87]

Remember Fiora told Davis that he was the spitting image of his Father... Zod... Now we know who will play Zod next year...


Yea that is prolly who will play him. I think I saw a spoiler about season 9 saying that Sam Witwer could play Zod.

i agree it was real clever...i really wasnt feeling the other jimmy..but i learn to except it since its smallville..but now im satisfied about the real jimmy being the younger brother..

i agree...

[~*Lois & Clark Fan*~]

This episode was epic fail


Smallville is not the story of Superman.

I am pretty sure it's a show about Clark Kent becoming SUPERMAN. He may not be Superman right now, but Superman is more than just a suit and some powers, it's the PERSON beneath the suit. He's more than just a name

[paolinki25]

What I don't understand is, why do they bring a character from the Superman mythology to the show and then pull a "Hey. Just kidding. This guy looks Jimmy Olsen, but really isn't. It's just his brother". It's very confusing and kind of disrespectful to the whole story, imo.

[~*Lois & Clark Fan*~]

After this I want Chloe GONE! This is utter BS

[ThunderMonkey]

This cleared up a minor pet peeve I had with the show.

Jimmy Olsen was too old to be the true Jimmy.

[ManOfSteel87]

Fiora telling Davis he looked like his father, Zod, was the worse f'n line the entire season b/c now we have to rehash the whole Zod crap again with Davis reincarnated as Zod. BORING. Bring in another DC villain. Who care about Clark not being Superman yet so he can't face someone like Darkseid, Metallo, etc. b/c you have blown the mythos completely out of the water. And no, Jimmy's younger brother being the real Jimmy Olsen from the comics doesn't make sense b/c Jimmy has been Jimmy for the last several years. If that is the case, they NEVER should've brought Jimmy Olsen to Smallville. I mean, I know Jimmy was supposed to be a lot younger than Clark, but is was OK after a some time. But like has already been said, why bring a character on and say "hey this is jimmy olsen" to come back later and say "oops, just kidding his younger brother is the real jimmy". This episode was a huge letdown.

What happened to having SV line up more with the DC mythos that the writers have been talking about. The DD fight was a complete letdown. I mean, they gave us the entire fight in the Director's Cut. Nothing about the finale had SV line up more with the mythos. I'm just soooooo pissed right now.

[antx]

Holy cow that was one hell of a shocker.I couldn't believe Jimmy died.I wish he hadn't,I looove him so much.That was a huge twist with the kid brother.When the priest said Henry James Olsen,I was like "what the heck".And when Chloe said about him later using the camera in the future.I am still not sure how I feel about this.But it was a clever way to kill Jimmy without killing the Iconic Jimmy Olsen.I have to say I never expcted tptb to do something like this.

[redkryptoniteisthebest]

At least now my avatar will make sense. ;)

What?! :lol:

I was always confused as to what your avatar meant...lol.

[tibbit78]

I'm not watching Smallville anymore if Jimmy Olsen/Aaron Ashmore & Perry White isn't going to come during the 9th season of Smallville. I'm all through watching Smallville, if neither one comes. I was hoping that the 9th season of Smallville would be a story about Clark, Lois, Jimmy & Perry White.

Thanks for agreeing with me Julie. I sure am going to miss Aaron Ashmore as Jimmy Olsen.

[Violet-Shadow]

Yeah, he IS the Jimmy Olsen.

[Canary]

Yeah, he IS the Jimmy Olsen.


I 2nd that :)

[amberdawn]

I 3rd that. I will not accept any substitutes.

[jpfort1957]

I've around for awhile. I saw every Superman tv show and the Superman movies in the theaters. I've been watching SV for the last 6 seasons and bought all the dvds. My mind has become conditioned. When I hear the name Clark kent, I automaticly see TW. When I hear Lois, I think ED. And when I hear Jimmy Olsen......I see AARON ASHMORE!!!!!!!!!!!!
