But 5 and 6 have been great, a lot darker, and the Clark/Lana/Lex plot is deliciously twisted, esp with Lex clearly going Full Bad Guy now.* It's also very cognitive dissonance inducing with Chloe still being so loveable...

I, like you, think it improves the longer it goes on, The introduction of Green Arrow takes it up another level too.

Getting rid of Ryan, 'er Pete helped improve things.

I still have the tenth season to watch. Had it three years. I'll re-watch the whole show to recap. That's the plan anyway.
