I totally loved it too. Its going to be hard to write a coherent review, because even hours later, pretty much all I can do is type 'squee' followed by lots of exclamation marks!
I am still floating happily on cloud #9. The episode was perfect. I especially enjoyed the future stuff, and how everything he saw in this episode made Clark inspire himself and let go of everything holding him down and be confident and happy. Guh. ♥
I'm so annoyed that I have plans today that I can't get out of. I want to rewatch this episode so badly, and I still haven't seen last night's SPN or Sanctuary (which I'm adding to my rotation).
I loved this episode, too! The flashbacks were a very clever way of having Lana and Chloe there, but not really.
In most versions of Superman, I'm not all that big of a fan of Lois. She always struck me as a starry-eyed fangirl of Superman, who was dismissive of Clark. Superman came first with her and always would.
But Smallville's version - of a Lois who loves Clark and believes in him and would do anything for him, who thinks of his abilities as a part of him, but aren't solely him - that's a version I adore.
*Twirls you* This was definitely a great episode for both Clark and Lois. And boy do I agree with you about TW spoiling us for any other incarnation of Clark. And this ep definitely had a great blend of humor and poignant moments, like with Greg Arkin and the callbacks to Reckoning.
