The venerable Superman mythos gets a 21st-century updating in this imaginative and engaging television series from the WB Network, and series fans can celebrate the ratings success of Smallville with a six-disc set that compiles its entire first season. The deluxe package offers a chance to revisit the origins of the characters and their numerous plotlines, as well as view deleted scenes and other bonus features.
The premise of Smallville--Superman as a teenager--takes up just a few pages in Superman's very first comic book appearance (in Action Comics back in 1938), but series producers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar flesh out that period by portraying young Clark Kent (Tom Welling) not as the noble Superman-in-waiting, but as an average teen with some not-so-ordinary supernatural powers, including incredible strength and heat vision (Clark hasn't lifted up, up, and away as of yet). Clark's desire to fit in with his peers and make sense of his extraordinary abilities ground him in very realistic and identifiable terms for the series' primarily under-25 audience, as does his appealing and tentative romance with Kristen Kreuk as Clark's dreamgirl Lana Lang. But Smallville also strikes gold when it takes a turn towards more comic book territory, as evidenced by the parade of shape-shifting killers and other outlandish antagonists (many generated, in one of the series' most ingenious notions, by the same devastating meteor shower that brought the infant Clark to Earth) that Clark must harness his powers to face and defeat. Gough and Millar, along with their capable cast (which includes Michael Rosenbaum as a young and already bald-pated Lex Luthor, and Annette O'Toole and John Schneider as the Kents) manage to pull off the precarious high-wire act of combining science fiction with coming-of-age drama to create this highly watchable program.
Smallville: The Complete First Season offers a very complete and attractive DVD package that is rounded out by some highly desirable extras for longtime series fans. The six-disc set offers all 21 episodes of the first season, including the pilot, in widescreen anamorphic format; Gough and Millar are featured on the set's sole commentary track, which appears on the pilot episode. Viewers can also access a number of deleted scenes from various episodes as well as view original pre-production storyboards and WB promotional spots. An interactive "tour" of Smallville rounds out the extras, but DVD-ROM owners can use the discs to access more features via the Smallville web site. --Paul Gaita

I have been a fan of this series for a while, I was glad to get this series on DVD.
The only problem is during shipment the DVD's will come loose from the case.. so open carefully. 4 of mine fell out.

Ok, you don't need me to tell you how great this show is... but I will anyway. The acting is top notch, the plots are mind bending and the characters are completely 3 dimensional. The first season took about 3 episodes to get on it's feet... everything beyond that is history. You'll find yourself crazy to watch the next episode, each one more entertaining and pleasing to watch than the last. Not since "Star Trek: Voyager" have I enjoyed a show this much.
Oh, and by the way... While you're ... Read More

So much more enjoyable than watching with commercials. Better quality than recording it yourself. Nice to have to watch your favorite shows or parts of shows over and over. This series has lasted 7+ years for a reason. IT'S GREAT and ENTERTAINING. If you can't buy all seasons_ at least buy the 1st season to have for personal viewing and keepsake/collectible/reminder of show. Plus Tom Welling (Clark Kent/Superboy?) and Kristin Kreuk (Lana Lang) and Eric Johnson (Whitney Ford)...are GREAT EYE CANDY!

Smallville is about Clark Kent, who is destined to become Superman, in his high school days. One thing that this series does really well is that it gives Clark a sense of vulnerability which he doesn't really have as an adult. This vulnerability is not only physical, as Clark discovers the powers he has, but also psychological. To add to the psychological dimension of this series, Lex Luthor turns out to be Clark's best friend in Smallville. Each episode will leave you looking for any clues of ... Read More

I saw a promo for this series on the Ultimate Superman DVD set and was hooked. I purchased Seasons 1-5 in December 2006 and by January 2007 had watched every show!! There were only a few episodes that I would have tossed to Superdog to chow down on! Season 6 was good too, I purchased it from Amazon as well. Highly Recommended!
