I wanna be optimistic about the ratings, but there are a lot of things that could make it fall even further from last week's dip. Yes, ABC, CBS and NBC may be in repeats; however, FOX is airing American Idol, America's number one show. The CW didn't do so hot of a job with the promotion, the reception to last week's episode was mixed, the rest of the CW is in repeats this week so fewer people to see the sparse ads and we know that, unless an episode focuses on Clark or a big name guest star/character, it usually takes a dip.
I hope I'm wrong, and the ratings actually do go up, though.

I think it is a bit unfair to assume that rating will drop just because of Lana, Smallville is up against American Idol tomorrow night so that will probably hurt us a bit. I go into every episode with an open mind and hope for the best which is probably why I actually enjoyed "Bulletproof" last week
Will Smallville be going up American Idol for the rest of the season? Because things only get more intense as the AI season continues. They usually get a lot of traction once the numbers of contestants dwindles to a handful and then people get very into the show. So if AI will continually go up against SV, I fear for the ratings. Anyway, I think the ratings will go slightly up. I say 4.0 because last week was a pretty good episode and I think people that watched liked it and will return. It could also go down if enough people got turned off by the Lana and Clark kiss. So I don't see a huge increase in ratings, but a small one may happen.

Now I wouldn't expect these ratings at all. 5.1? Really? Maybe Requiem since I believe everyone will want to watch the final chapter in the Lana and Clark relationship (either because you love them or hate them). But even that episode I say the most it could get would be 4.8 or 4.9. Anything over that for Smallville seems unlikely, unless we're talking about episodes such as Infamous, that one could score BIG!
