The CW announced its fall schedule today and it features all good-looking people. I suppose one could make the argument that all television features good-looking people, but not to the extreme extent that the CW has taken it. You see, most of the CW's Fall schedule not only features good-looking people, the series themselves are about those people being good-looking, or at least it's a very important part of the series. There are three hours of new programming on the CW's Fall schedule, one of which may include the most highly-anticipated new series going into next season.
Before any Reaper fans go ballistic and worry about why the series isn't on the Fall schedule, don't worry. The CW has ordered 13 episodes of Reaper, which will hit the air at mid-season. There's a very good chance that it will take over Smallville's time slot at some point, but nothing is set in stone.

Last week on Smallville, Lex was attacked by a cloaked stranger who carved Kryptonian symbols into his chest, a message intended for Clark. Chloe and Clark discovered that one members of the Veritas clan has survived and was hiding in a church. And Clark and Lex raced to be the first to find this mysterious Veritas member, who holds the key to Clark's survival.
This week, the seventh season of Smallville comes to a close. Read on for spoilers on the episode called “Arctic.”

The notorious rivalry between Clark Kent and Lex Luthor has slowly been building up on Smallville for seven seasons. After years of anticipation, we'll finally get the battle we've been waiting for in next week's season finale, "Arctic." On last night's episode, Lex obtained the final object he needed to point the way to the Fortress of Solitude, and as the promo for next week's installment showed, that's the first place he's headed. Will the epic standoff between good and evil live up to our expectations, or will Smallville's seventh season go out with a whimper instead of a bang? Read on for some spoiler-free theorizing about what might happen in the finale.

Previously on Smallville: If Clark Kent never came to Earth, his dad and Sheriff Adams would still be alive, Chloe would be engaged, Lana would be married with kids in France and Lois would be editor-in-chief of the Daily Planet. Yet somehow we were supposed to think Clark being on Earth is a good thing.
Lex (Michael Rosenbaum) has his newfound Krypto-Graph studied by an antiquities expert (played by Donnelly Rhodes, Doc Cottle from Battlestar Galactica!) who doesn't know what it is. Once he's alone, Lex angrily stares at the fire when the Zurich “bank manager” rushes in and knocks Lex out. He then carves a Kryptonian symbol into Lex's chest.

If Smallville's upcoming eighth season experiences any more shake-ups, it's possible the show may become completely unrecognizable. As we've previously reported, creators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar are leaving at the end of the current season, and actors Michael Rosenbaum and Kristin Kreuk will not appear full-time next year. Allison Mack's contract is also up at the end of season 7, but until today it was thought that she was a lock to sign up for Smallville's eighth year. Now, according to TV Guide's Michael Ausiello, Mack's participation in the next season of Smallville may not be a sure thing. Could the series survive without Chloe Sullivan?
