Special thanks to: MANOFSTEELKALEL & Variety

Smallville executive producers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar have made a deal with Warner Bros. that will keep them guiding the show for two more years. The deal will "ensure creative consistency" through a fourth season of the show

"What we often lose sight of in this business is the importance of properly maintaining the quality of series currently on the air," Peter Roth told Daily Variety. "Smallville is arguably one of the most important assets for this studio, and by signing Al and Miles to a long-term agreement, we've protected the future of this franchise."

About continuing with the show, Al Gough had this to say to Variety: "With any show you create, you're invested in it and want to protect that vision and ensure it continues. We still have a lot of stories to tell and we're excited about where we can this saga and these characters."

An Unlikely Alliance...
BlackVoices.com's interview with Sam Jones III also revealed something interesting about which character may be having some interaction with Lionel Luthor soon... (and no, it's not Pete...)

Special thanks to: MMB, Ex, Comingsoon.net, and the Hollywood Reporter

Tom Welling is very likely going to follow Michael Rosenbaum's lead and star in an upcoming Steve Martin movie.

The movie, titled "Cheaper By The Dozen," will feature Tom and Hilary Duff alongside Martin and Bonnie Hunt. Shawn Levy will be directing.

The Hollywood Reporter's actual wording is that Tom is "in talks," but this could be good news that we may be seeing Tom on the big screen. If he takes the role, Tom will play the family's oldest son.

Allison Mack in Dreamwatch #102
"Chloe" herself is interviewed and featured on the cover of U.S. editions of Dreamwatch magazine, now hitting newsstands.

Among the tidbits revealed:

Allison thinks that Chloe's relationship with Clark would not change at all if she were let in on "the secret." "In fact, if anything she would fall more in love with him for his heroism. She cares so deeply about him and his wonderful characteristics that she would do anything for him. I don't think that there would be anything that could change that," she told the magazine.

About Lana vs. Chloe: "I think there is a certain amount of jealousy because Lana has what Chloe wants. Chloe knows she's not as fairy-like. She knows she doesn't have as much of a "Princess" image as Lana does. I think she just feels jealous because Lana has what Chloe wants and doesn't do anything with it. Chloe gets upset because she knows that Lana doesn't have a clue how wonderful Clark is. The thing is, she's conflicted because she likes Lana and doesn't really want to like her," Allison said.

Allison also talked about an interest in Lex coming from Chloe's behalf and how that would affect some of the other characters, particularly Pete. She also had high praises for co-stars Sam Jones III and Tom Welling.

Dreamwatch should be at good newsstands everywhere.

About Season 3...
For some reason people are starting to ask "Will there be a third season of Smallville?" Of course there will be. The cast, crew, etc. have spoken about the next year in interviews, and while there may not be any known formal announcements made about the subject, there should be no doubt the show *will* be back next year.

Emmanuelle Vaugier (Dr. Bryce) was featured in the latest issue of MAXIM magazine. We put out a request for a scan and received *dozens* of responses! (Thanks again folks!) So, if you want to see the picture, click here, but be warned, the photo is rated PG-13 and not suitable for all audiences.

Read Chloe's Letter To Clark!
The episode "Fever" featured a heartfelt letter written from Chloe that she read to Clark while he was ill. Sadly for her, when he started to wake up he called for Lana.

Those who sneak onto Chloe's hard drive (also home to the "Wall of Weird") can now read that letter. Here's what you have to do:

1. Go to http://www.smallvilletorch.com.

2. Look for the crow near the top. Put your mouse over it and the eye should flash. Click on it.

3. You should then get a prompt to type in a user name and password. Type in "csullivan" for the username, and "wallofweird" for the password.

The "Starr-Ware" system will load, and once you're onto Chloe's desktop, click on the trashcan. There you will find pictures from the spring formal (in case you want to be nosey like Lana), and you will also find a file called "DearClark.zip." Download it, unzip the file, and you can read the entire note.
