Red Caped Destiny - Smallville's Series Finale

10 years.

Imagine that.

That was how long Red Dot Diva had invested some of her pop-culture time with the long-running CW (previously WB) series, "Smallville". A re-imagining based on the popular and very well-loved DC comics character, Superman.

Perhaps one should tip a hat off to Tom Welling. For without him staying as youthful-looking as he did, Red Dot Diva doubts the series would have stayed on for this long!

The two-hour finale was announced many weeks before and fans were already aware of several re-appearances by well-loved actors, including Michael Rosenbaum. Even Greg Beeman was back directing for the final hour of the series. Greg has some wonderful behind the scenes stories and pics of the finale on his blog. Click here to check it out!

So after 10 years of trying to embrace his destiny and attempting to actually fly, "Smallville" ended two Fridays ago on May 13th with his Kal-El-ness finally taking to the skies in that familiar red-caped costume. About fraking time right?

Guess Who's Back on "Smallville"?

In one of the more epicly-evil news of the week, Lex Luthor Prime will be back in the series finale of "Smallville"!!!

Michael Rosenbaum, who had left the series in 2008, went on to concentrate on writing. He is currently filming the Syfy half-hour comedy series, "Saved by Zeroes", which he also created.

Unlike some of the other "Smallville" actors who were no longer in the series, he had been very reluctant to return to the show, even for guest spots.

Red Dot Diva is still trying to come down from a hyperventilating-estrogen high after hearing the news. AHHHHhh!!
