I don't think Oliver knows he's infected, either.

And I had the same thought as you--why the hell didn't Clark x-ray him? Because he's an idiot, that's why. For me, Clark has always been portrayed to be a self-involved whiny little bitch (pardon my language). Yeah, he goes out and saves people, but at the end of the day, it's pretty much all about Clark, how Clark feels about what he's done, how other people around affect Clark, and Clark whining about his relationships with Lana (seasons 1-8) and now Lois (9-10) with a brief stop in the middle for Alicia.

It amuses me that people say Oliver has nothing left to do on Smallville, when frankly he's been more of a hero than the main character in the five years he's been around. Clark can't even fly yet. :p /end Clark bashing here

It was Oliver who was doing the hero thing long before Clark, Oliver who put together the Justice League, Oliver who led the JL through missions, Oliver who made the sacrifices, etc. And he's only humanThat aside here's what I'm thinking ( ... )

Even if TPTB tries not to do it, they still make Clark look like BDA. It's the first thing Clark should have done.

This comment really hurt my tv-feelings, mostly because it was a fan of Chlollie who said it.

About what will happen in the last 3 episodes, I honestly have no idea. I mean, TPTB will have a party of villains, so IDK how they'll make it work. Lionel, Lex, Zod, Darkseid. That's why I said they are only forgetting to bring Doomsday back.. So, ok, this is Clark's show and he has to bethe ultimate hero, but since he'll have so much in his hands to deal with, he'll probably barely give atention to Oliver (which of course is his usual behavior). With more reason then, Ollie should be able to deal with this by himself.

Huh? Noooo, not at all. I was saying that the comment I read, weeks ago, about Ollie having nothing left to do on SV, was made by a Chlollie fan.

Not you, I know what you meant in the post above ;) (and I totally agree with what you said about Ollie being more hero than Clark)

It's funny, couple of weeks ago I saw a Chlollie fan say something like this, and I hope it's not the one that hurt your feelings because I totally got what she was saying. I'm too lazy to go look for it now, but basically she said (paraphrasing): "Oliver has nothing left to do on Smallville because he's already made his journey. He knows who he is, he knows he's a hero, he knows he's a grownup, he knows who he loves, he knows he's a leader, he knows what his mission is. We're in the homestretch of 10 years of this show and Clark has barely begun to start putting some of this stuff together."

Yeah, I think it was that one. And I think I understand now the meaning of the comment. What I didn't like is that to me sounded like after Chloe's gone Oliver has nothing left useful or interesting to contribute to the show. But ok maybe Im being oversensitive ( ... )
