Tonight at 8 p.m. ET more new Smallville on The CW. Last week was Hydro.
The one you've been waiting for! Here is the official preview from CWTV.com.
Smallville #6-11 "Justice"
The Green Arrow (Justin Hartley) sends out for reinforcements and Bart Allan, a.k.a. The Flash (guest star Kyle Gallner), Aquaman (guest star Alan Ritchson) and Cyborg (guest star Lee Thompson Young) return to Smallville to help him take down LuthorCorp's secret lab.
During a break-in at the LuthorCorp facility, Bart is captured and tortured by Lex (Michael Rosenbaum) and Clark (Tom Welling) sets off to rescue him but is felled by meteor rock. An alarmed Chloe (Allison Mack) goes to Oliver for help and the newly formed "justice league" springs into action to rescue Clark and Bart.
Kristin Kreuk, Erica Durance, John Glover and Annette O'Toole also star. The episode was written and directed by Steven S. DeKnight.

"Luck. That's what it all boils down to, doesn't it? The smallest break one way or another. It can change a life or destroy it. And you can't fight it. No matter how strong you are."
"I believe the man that you're looking for is the same man who beat Samuel here 'til he cried like a little girl."
"Well, I've certainly got to hand it to you for the meticulous care with which you have executed your finely-formulated machinations in extricating us from this devastating dilemma."

Chloe playing Oracle = teh awesum.
I have my new desktop background. Thanks!
Oh, this is tooooooooo cool! This has to be, by far, THE BEST Smallville episode ever! I love it that they called Ollie's headquarters "Watchtower" and I didn't think about the "Oracle" role Chloe played. This was a GREAT episode! I said it before and I'll say it again.... I need a "Justice League" live-action movie! BRING IT!!!!!![]()

"You've got some pretty amazing friends, Clark Kent."
"Yep. I do."
Maybe some "super" friends? Couldn't you see "Smallville" morphing into "Young Justice?" I'd take a piece of that action. Well done!

I has happy that Bart Allen's code name was Impulse.
Whoever plays Green Arrow seems to love doing his "deep superhero voice." Little much there, but then again, so was the banter.
I was a bit disappointed that they called Bart Impulse instead of the Flash.
Ah, you pose a good point, I suppose. May he could have said something to the effect of "I wanted the Flash, but it's taken," or somesuchI was happy that Bart Allen's code name was Impulse.. But that would mean that theoretically, there would be another Flash wandering around.
You know, I was kind of hoping that at the end he'd say something like "See ya Boy Scout," and Clark would say something to the effect of "How about...Superman?" Cheesy, sure, but so was most of what went on in this episode, and an example of why having a bunch of guys in spandex running around is such a difficult act to juggle at the best of times. Still, there was plenty of fun to be had, and having Chloe in the Oracle role was a nice touch for the fans.
Oh, and being near that much Kryptonyte for that long would have killed Clark real quickly.
Poor Lois.
Not it will most likely do any good, but I encourage any interested parties to sign this petition.

Rather underwhelming for me. I was expecting at least one super battle with a FOTW since it is 33.1 they were dealing with. Lois annoyed me with her "you don't spend any time with me" act (although I can see her side of it). Cool points for Chloe being Oracle, GA and Lex's banter near the end, and seeing that Lionel is still keeping Clark's secret, even though he's on Lex's side now. Other than that, I expected more.
Next week is a true sci-fi show cliched episode. Last one I remember was on Buffy, but I know there are other shows that have done it before. Could be interesting though.

The only thing I didn't like about the episode was Lex channeling his Superfriends counterpart with his "death trap" for Bart.
There's a lot of potential for the Smallville League, we know J'Onn J'Onzz is supposed to appear soon, he could always join. Also I thought that "Vengeance" girl from last season would be a good fit, a version of Huntress, another female field member. Also I'd keep Chloe around to keep playing Oracle.
(Fanboy mode on)That was officially the coolest episode.(Fanboy mode off)
While it would have been cool to show a superbattle between 33.1 villains and the heroes. It might have spun the budget too high. But, more importantly it sets up Lex to how he is in the comics....A man so corrupt with wanting to be top dog. He will do whatever it takes.
Also, if the ratings on this episode are strong...You can guarantee a return appearance of the team.
Instead of a Green Arrow spin-off. They should have a Justice League spin-off. With guest appearances from our well known Kansas farmboy.![]()
When the HELL will this repeat?
My BAKA vcr decided not to record the episode and now I'm really ticked off.

I'm in the camp that didn't like Impulse as Bart's code name. He's more Impulse than any other Flash anyway, but still. Besides, DC doesn't have an Impulse any more.
It was a really cool episode, and I'm glad they had the ambition to try it. I'm also glad Alan Ritchson didn't get many lines because he sucks. The team actually had pretty good dynamics, and it was understandable why Clark was interested in it but still didn't feel the time to join them just yet.
Chloe as Oracle was great, as was the Watchtower and reference to "JL International". I'm glad they used code names and the name "Justice" too, that was fun.
I have to admit, though, the best part of this episode? No Lana.
I wouldn't say he was channeling his Superfriends counterpart. This is Lex Luthor using his advanced technology to torture someone for information. It's just in this case, that "someone" had powers.

It was a cool episode. There were codenames and costumes and everything. Also, Lana never showed up to bring the episode down.
Me too. The thing is that, to me, Bart Allen is Impulse. I was a fan of Impulse before I ever became a fan of the Flash. So, it was nice to see that alter ego get acknowledged. Of course, I prefer the naive, innocent Bart to the cocky, wise-cracking one we get on Smallville.
Martian Manhunter will supposedly be showing up again in the next episode.
Saturday Morning is not just part of the week. It's a state of mind.
I loved the episode, I did wish they could have added a female hero into the mix, I mean there are other superheroines out other than Wonder Woman that they could have used. I really do wish that this had been a pilot for Justice League series. I love the chemistry between Clark and Ollie as well between Clark and Impulse all the actors complmented each other nicely.
Who knows what is really real..... that's the true question in life.
