I am longtime devotee to the Smallville franchise. I took a long hiatus from the show and only recently came back when I purchased seasons 8 through 10 on DVD.
I cannot tell you how excited I am that Clark and Lana are finally over. Oh dear god their love problems while initially cute and endearing, became the ball and chain that weighed down the progress of the show.
The writers of the show have done well to end their relationship in this manner. While the two of them will never be together, devotees of the are left with the memory of the passionate and tumultuous love the shared. Simultaneously, it brings closure and allows show devotees (and Clark and Lana) to move on to a future that contains more opportunities of love.
