As far as I'm concerned, this whole series is filler by definition. It's just filling in the space between the the time Clark arrived on Earth to when he becomes Superman, so it doesn't bother me that much. -
Didn't seem filler to me at all. Also, what's left other than putting on the suit and flying. There's nothing else really standing in the way between Clark becoming Superman. He's been acting quite Superman-ly since Masquerade(not counting Fortune) and is uncorruptable by Darkseid. He's slowly worked on and established his dual identity in Masquerade and Booster. What else is really left to do?Comment

thats my point its the last ever few episodes and they are concentrating on 'lois being worried about clark in the future' for the last few seasons lois has always been worried about clark, who cares......ok about olivers arc but this is a show about clark leave oliver to the sub plot....we wanna see darkseid properly...some hints on lex or what lionel is upto...clarks suit and flight or adopting the name superman etc some real superman stuff now is neededComment

If they delt with Lex or Lionel wouldn't that be filler since it doesn't deal with Clark becoming Superman? Or does Lex somehow get a free pass when people start labelling what is and isn't filler.
I never get the filler argumnt myself, save 3-4 episodes every season the rest are always filler. In terms of Dominion, I thought it touched upon a couple season long storyarcs so there is less of a case of it being filler then most other episodes.Comment

well Superman is about Lex and clark becoming Superman will eventually involve Lex...so if they deal with Lex in perspective of clark they are dealing with 'superman'Comment

This episode should have been earlier in the season, it ties up Zod's storyline and makes the past few years seem like a coherent storyline.Comment

This episode didn't do Clark favors. It only showed what happens to Lois if Clark didn't return and only advanced Oliver's storyline. They were trying to remind us of the Darkseid storyline through Zod. They already had their apartment in Kent as Lois had the place setup when Clark and Oliver returned from the PZ.Comment

I seen many Lois/Clois centric episodes be labeled "filler". On the flip side Lexcentric ones never seem to get put in the "filler" crosshairs(although I could make an argument that many Lex episodes are "filler" going by the same standards other people would use to claim an episode are "filler")Comment

Clark hasn't really advanced in any capacity since Homecoming so I'm not surprised.
Oh and Clois is classed as filler as it isn't necessary to a Superman origin story. However Lex is used in many Superman origin stories and it needs to be shown how he becomes the man he is destined to be. Had the show ended a few years ago a Lois cameo would have satisfied me.Comment
