With certain s8 cast members in limbo, who do you think should come back? And who do you think will come back?
I know for me, I'd like to see AM and MR back without a doubt. I think they contribute the most to the show, and I think their characters are 2 of the most important to the show right after Clark. I would want them for the whole season. Honestly, as much as I like KK, I think Lana's story is over. I really don't see anything else they can do with the character. And as much as I like JG, I think the time for Lionel is up. Now, as for who I think will honestly come back? If MR's and KK's contracts are up with the end of s7, I don' t think they'll come back. And in MR's case, I can't blame him. They seemed to not know what in the hell to do with Lex for the past couple of seasons, and his screentime has been abominable in s7. I really do think it's a shame since I think there's a lot more story to tell with Lex. I know that since Clark and Lex aren't friends anymore, they aren't going to necessarily hang out as much. However, that doesn't mean they can't necessarily be involved in the same plotlines. I think it'd be cool for them to almost be investigating the other one in what *seems to be* separate plotlines, but then it all comes together at the end. It amazes me the writers can't think of things like this. I really do think MR is a very good actor, and I'm sad to see how much he's wasted on this show nowadays.
