Smallville Season 3

If you are looking for a standout "special feature" from the Smallville Season 3 DVD, the consensus pick is the documentary "Smallville: The Heroes Behind The Camera". It offers a rare, high-quality look at the crew who make the show possible, including entertaining insights from director Greg Beeman and a humorous impression of him by Michael Rosenbaum (Lex Luthor).

Character Development

  • Clark Kent (Tom Welling): This season strips Clark of his innocence. He becomes darker, learning that his actions have severe repercussions. He begins to understand that he cannot save everyone, and his secrecy creates rifts between him and the people he loves.
  • Lex Luthor (Michael Rosenbaum): This is the season Lex truly begins to turn. We see flashes of the villain he will become—paranoid, manipulative, and obsessed with the truth. However, the tragedy is that he is also the victim. His father tortures him mentally, forcing the audience to sympathize with the "villain."
  • Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk): Lana moves on from Clark and dates Adam Knight (a mysterious stranger with a dark past). Her storyline explores isolation and the realization that Clark will never be truly honest with her.
  • Lionel Luthor (John Glover): Promoted to series regular, Lionel becomes the primary antagonist. He is charming, terrifying, and Machiavellian. His manipulation of Lex and obsession with Clark drive the plot.
