Effect of the NXIVM sex cult scandal on Smallville re-runs due to Allison Mack being very prominent in the series

Latest comment: 10 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

e.g. am pretty certain that one Cable re-run in Britain was immediately halted and the series has never been re-run there at all since after the scandal broke and it was directly in response to the scandal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.16.72.221 (talk) 08:26, 13 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

why asian?

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

sorry, i didn't follow the show, but i've always been curious as to why they cast a hapa for lana lane. is it addressed in-universe (i.e., mother being asian), or did the producers honestly think they could slip kreuk by as caucasian?

article goes out of its way to point out how some caucasian character was recast as black in the show, but says nothing about one being recast as (hapa) asian. 2601:19C:527F:A680:29B4:B41C:75A8:70BA (talk) 06:42, 21 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

A technical question

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

How does {{:List of Smallville episodes}} invoke the series overview table in the List of Smallville episodes page? There's no template called ":List of Smallville episodes". Redjedi23 (talk) 22:11, 17 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
