Erica Durance as Lois Lane in SMALLVILLE
I caught the news that Erica Durance (Smallville‘s Lois Lane) and Michael Shanks (Smallville‘s Hawkman & Stargate‘s Dr. Daniel Jackson) are starring in a Canadian medical drama series called Saving Hope.
If NBC gets the price it wants, we’ll be seeing the series in a 13-episode summer run.
Saving Hope has Erica Durance playing a surgeon and Michael Shanks plays her husband… who is in a coma. But while he’s in a coma, he wanders the halls in spirit form.
Saving Hope is executive produced by Ilana Frank, whose track record includes some favorites of mine, Rookie Blue, so my hopes are a notch above buzzing.

No spoilers in this front section of my Smallville recap and review:

It is here. The moment we’ve all been looking forward to and dreading, all at once. Through the highs and some of the lows, this is what it comes down to, the series finale of Smallville on The CW. The episode much heralded by many websites throughout the last few months.
This final episode of Smallville was 90% pretty damn good. The story took care of many of the open stories and we got to see many past characters/actors. We didn’t see Pete, (Sam Jones III) because ["In October 2009, he was arrested by the DEA on charges of drug trafficking, with conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute." TMZ] His loss.

The story in this final episode was good enough to keep me from being sad that this was the last ever new episode of Smallville. The last twenty minutes had many recap images of the previous ten years and it was then I started realizing how sad I was becoming that this was it. No more upcoming scenes.
