I gotta go with Obsession it brought Alicia into Clark's life and he was actually relieved to have someone to know about his powers because she too had to remain sheltered and kept on a short lease by her parents as well if anyone found out about it. Clark was also very attracted to Alicia because he could be himself around her and didn't have to keep his guard up something he felt he couldn't do with either Chloe or Lana.

If any guy chooses "Traveler" over "Rush", which featured the crazy-sexy Chloe or "Obsession", which featured the crazy-sexy Alicia, lol...then....they might be gay, haha.
"Rush" was just amazing...especially when Chloe was sucking on that lollipop :)

Yes Rush was great but they have grown and evolved into adults now so yes this has to be the best 14th epi since season 3 in my opinion

It's not got much competition. Don't get me wrong, I liked Trespass, Tomb, Obsession, and Rush. But it won't be hard to be better than them.

You are seriously getting on my last nerve. You do this every single week after a new episode airs. Get over the fact that some people will complain about certain things regarding this show. And guess what? Complaining about other people complaining doesn't make you any different whether you'd like to believe it or not.

With those choices there's no doubt "Traveler" is the best out of all of them. It was superbly written and superbly exceuted. The actors looked enthused to be acting again. This was great!

*agreeing 100%* None of the other 14th episodes gave me this much thrill and excitement of watching. I guess keeping an episode basically couple-free makes for a good episode. :\

I absolutely love Rush and the acting in Tomb was excellent, I had to go with Traveler. It's the first time I thought a season 7 episode was better than one from the earlier seasons.
Clana_4ever2005
03-20-2008, 10:05 PM
I loved Traveler but I still loved Tomb more.
So I had to go with Tomb.
Rush was a good one too.
Vergon6
03-20-2008, 10:09 PM
I honestly didn't think "Tomb" was all that great, it was ok I guess. "Traveler" was good but I have to go with "Krypto", by the mere fact that Shelby (played by Bud the dog), is absolutely adorable ;) Funny enough, "Krypto" was the first episode that I watched on the Season 4 DVD when I first got it.

You know RUSH and TOMB, are my favorite eps too. But, Traveler is the best when Chloe said "i love your son" that was the best line ever.:D
JorEl23
03-21-2008, 09:37 AM
This was harder for me then I thought. None of these episodes are in the upper echelon of series greats but Trespass and Obsession were both right on the brink for varying reasons. Obsession with the introduction of the all time best FOTW: Alicia and Trespass for the beginning of the "redemption of Lana"/"Lana secret reveal"/"closure of horrific Lexana" story arc. Traveler was just a notch below but something was just missing, which is a shame because it had potential to be a series great. Maybe it was the confusing nature of Lionel still not adding up or too much focus on Chloe's "relationship" with CK clearly made to appease a segment of fans at the expense of his relationship to other characters just as important in his life. Anyway, here they are, BEST to WORST:
1) Season 6: Trespass
2) Season 3: Obsession
3) Season 7: Traveler
4) Season 2: Rush
5) Season 4: Krypto
6) Season 1: Zero
7) Season 5: Tomb
smallvillelogan
03-21-2008, 10:19 AM
None of these episodes are memorable to me, except for the one we saw last night! Zero was really good in its twists as people tell the story from their own point of view. Krypto was fun, but not much more. I thought Trespass was OK, but too much of "worship Princess Lana" and not any story progression whatsoever.
So I liked four.
I didn't like three. Tomb was slow. Obsession was annoying. Rush is my least favorite episode of the entire Smallville series.
1) Traveler
2) Zero
3) Krypto
4) Trespass
5) Tomb
6) Obsession
7) Rush

My order
1. Traveler - set up a lot of really interesting plots, smashed Lionel's good name, which was so needed, and we got to see Lex cleaning blood off a necklace, and Clark in a kryptonite cage (no matter what issues i have with the performance), and i thought JG was just incredible at portraying this very conflicted man
2. Krypto - the best Clois scenes in the show IMHO. PLus Shelby! lol. But i genuinely really enjoy this episode
3. Rush - was a really fun episode, with three main characters loosing their inhibilities, and one of the only times i actually felt sorry for Lana. plus topless Kal and Pete knocking him out with a punch
4. Zero - one of the most intellegent episodes ever, i loved the way they did those flashbacks.
5. Tomb - amazing acting by AM. I love Chloecentric episodes.
6. Obsession - i loved alicia even when she was crazy, i still understood her.
7. Trespass - actually couldn't remember it, had to look it up lol

I mean is the first time I like and episode enough to compare it with others and vote for it but this one was so good that I couldn't keep myself away to express it on the poll. Any other good new episodes that had surpased the old ones?

"Traveler" beats them all in my opinion, although I love the Chloe episodes and the ones that did feature Alicia.
"Trespass" is the one from Season 6 that had the assistant of Lex trying to get Lana away from Lex, and ended up just going 100% crazy.

Kel-El09
03-22-2008, 01:33 PM
I don't know I would probably have to say:
1. Traveler-INTENSE
2. Tresspass-I liked Lana snooping around, and then she got sensitive when she found her picture in clark's desk
3. Krypto-We got shelby...without whom we wouldn't have so many funny threads
4. Rush-I didn't like Chloe ruining Lana and Clark's first real chance though
5. Obsession-Introduced us to Alicia, who I really liked.
6. Zero-Don't quite remember what happened in that one
7. Tomb-Didn't like it...It was totally random, and that Mikey guy..What is that about? He seemed like a sex offender to me!

i think it's difficult to be objective when you've just finished an episode. if it's any good, it seems way better
i mean the first time i saw rush i thought it was amazing, same with tomb.
but i dont think that means the new episodes are better... sometimes the stories are more exciting cause we are moving past the barn yard meteor freaks, but i'm a firm lover of the old smallville

Oh even though I liked Bizarro never imagined it would win the other premieres. I asekd because usually it looks like most people liked former seasons better and I was surprised to find out that this one beated the old ones.

Season 6: "Trespass" - Someone is stalking Lana and knows her every move.
Urgh... again?
While Traveller was a good episode, I think it's because of a recent run of bad episodes that make it seem all the better. My vote goes to Rush, an episode I've watched countless times out of pure enjoyment.

As a whole, Ive liked all of the Season 7 episodes, well, except mabye "Fierce," but it had its moments. Thats the only real episode that wont hold up to multiple viewings as well...

I really enjoyed Rush and Obsession, but Traveler wins.
It was just an intense episode with a very compelling conflict. I think everyone has waited for the moment when Lionel turned on Clark, and I loved how he did it. It almost comes out as caring, but in the end it's Lionel being selfish.
Also, Chloe and Lana team-up was great, along with Kara getting her powers back, and saving her cousin.
What a great episode. Great job SV crew! :)

But I think Tomb was the most entertaining, unlike some I don't mind the episodes that lean more near horror. I am a 'Supernatural' fan after all ;)
