Eternal
Episode 18
Tuesday, 28 April, 2026
Our Smallville Season 8 rewatch covers S8xE18: Eternal, where Davis Bloome’s origin finally comes into focus and it completely reframes him as both tragic and terrifying. We’re looking at how he arrived the same night as Clark, what his childhood with Lionel and Lex did to him, and how that lack of love shaped the monster he’s becoming. At the same time, the episode doesn’t let him off the hook. His killing spree, his connection to Chloe, and that brutal lab scene force everyone into impossible choices. It’s one of those episodes that makes you sit with the idea that Clark got a chance Davis never did… and still asks if things could’ve gone differently.Support the show: https://patreon.com/hopefullyawesomeBecome a Member on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHRvjz_pKP1Th5Y8ZIwFMtQ/joinCheck out our Merch! - https://hopefullyawesome.creator-spring.com/This video is NOT sponsored.
