Smallville (2001)
TV Show
First aired
Clark Kent's teenage years in Kansas, played as a high-school soap under a strict "no tights, no flights" rule: no Superman suit and no flying. The early seasons are pure WB, with a new super-powered menace most weeks, a doomed crush on the girl next door and Remy Zero's "Save Me" over the opening credits. It ran for ten seasons and left high school behind long before the end, so treat the first few as the teen drama and the rest as optional.
