Reported by Jay Cochran - 10:06 AM 2009.05.21


Smallville The CW Network unveiled the schedule for its 2009-2010 season today at a presentation for advertisers, affiliates and national media in the Theater at Madison Square Garden. The announcement was made by Dawn Ostroff, President of Entertainment, The CW.

During the announcement it was confirmed that Smallville would be moving to the dreaded Fridays timeslot for it's ninth season.

Reinterpreting the Superman mythology from its roots, SMALLVILLE was developed for television by Alfred Gough & Miles Millar (“Shanghai Noon,” “The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor”), based on the DC Comics characters. Kelly Souders & Brian Peterson serve as executive producers, along with James Marshall, Mike Tollin, Brian Robbins and Joe Davola. The series is produced by Tollin/Robbins Productions and Warner Bros. Television. SUPERMAN was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.

Look for Smallville on Fridays at 8pm starting this fall on the CW.

Heh heh! Totally! Maybe DC just got fed up with all the canon-raping that's been going on, but this was the only thing they felt they could do something about? I could see the comic historian rep standing on the sidelines constantly going, 'umm...guys?...hello?...that's not reall... read more
