Rules:
SPOILER FREE WATCH PARTY! — Let’s live in the 2001 moment and pretend we’ve never seen the rest of the series so our new fans can enjoy like we did after surviving Y2K. Please do not post any spoilers about the future of any characters or plotlines during this event.
CAN’T WIN IF YOU DON’T PLAY – You must have a way to access the episode and a DCUI membership to interact during the watch along.
DUAL-WIELDING – Watch-Alongs are best experienced on two devices; your phone or computer for comments, and the big screen for viewing.
3, 2, 1 LET’S JAM – Have your clicking finger on the “play” button and ready for action - we’ll be starting at the stroke of the hour.
LET THE CREDITS ROLL – Who would want to skip that Remy Zero anthem anyway?
A WRINKLE IN TIME – If you get lost in the timestream you can calculate where the audience is by checking the minute.
For example, it it’s XX:15pm then we are 15 minutes into the episode.

I recently rewatched the pilot a month or two back to begin my own re-watch of the show, but then the super Smallville Fan Club came about, and made me hold off on said re-watch, in favor of re-experiencing the whole shebang among my fellow fans instead.
Now that the time to begin is finally nearing, “I’m so excited, and I just can’t hide it!”
Cool! I can’t guarentee that I’ll be here every week (hell, I’ll only be here on this one because I took time off work for FanDome ) but I’ll definitely try to be for the start.
No worries! You can always follow our schedule on a different day of the week and leave your thoughts on the episode in each thread. As long as you don’t post prior to our WAL and spoil anything We would love to hear your thoughts!
Hmm, that’s not a bad idea – though I don’t think I can do post after post because there’s a limit to how many posts you can make in a row in a thread. Maybe I can just put my thoughts in one post? I could maybe do that for other WALs I missed too…
I watched some of it, but not all of it. I got in a couple of seasons in and stopped watching consistently a couple seasons before it ended. I do remember coming back for certain episodes that had big guest appearances, specifically the JSA.
I’m here and the WAL for S1 E1 of Smallville is finally today!
This show came along at a time in my life when I was too busy with everything else. I didn’t watch it then and have never gone back to watch it since so I am fresh out of the cornfield, as the poll says. I’ve never seen an episode and remember nothing of the show at all so I am really looking forward to these watchalongs and getting to watch it with a bunch of people who are DC fans like me.
Going to get some sleep now before FanDome, then a nap and then I’ll be back on here ready to hit play with y’all!
