Season 8 Review and Special Features
Episode 23
Tuesday, 9 June, 2026
In this episode of Going Back to Smallville, we’re looking back at Smallville Season 8 and celebrating what might be the show’s strongest season yet. From Clark’s move to Metropolis and the rise of the Red-Blue Blur to Lois and Clark’s growing relationship, Tess Mercer’s arrival, Oliver’s darkest struggles, and the Doomsday storyline, this season finally feels like Smallville fully embraced its future. For Matt, this is one of his favorite seasons of the series so far, and we talk about why Season 8 feels like the moment the show stopped holding back and became the superhero story it was always meant to be.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.
