Day 16 - Absolute Worst Pairing: Lex Luthor & Lana Lang from Smallville
I despise this pairing so much, I refused to look for a picture of the two of them together. I can’t fathom for a moment why clever, sophisticated Lex Luthor would want some simple girl from a small town who has nothing to offer but looks and a seemingly sweet attitude. That is a dream for teenage boys who know no better. I can see it as a writer’s grandiose idea at the beginning of a series that was held onto tightly long after its importance to the show waned. The sixth season where most of the “relationship” focused was poorly planned and executed. There was no chemistry. Every scene felt as forced as the effort it took me to watch them.
