So anyways, I did a little bit of researching since this is my 2nd favorite running tv show, aside from Pinks since knight rider was canceled.

It was originally planned that season 8 of smallville would be the last season, but they have extended it to a 9th season, and rumors of him wearing a suit are going around, not sure how true they are.

On the other upside of things, Lana(Kristin Kreuk) & Lex(Michael Rossenbaum) will return for the final season of smallville(season 9). I have some spoilers also but I won't post them unless a few people are interested in them. Tom Welling & Michael Rossenbaum have already signed the contract for season 9.
